Episode 45, Season One, A Last Fling Fond Fare-thee-well But Not Forever, June 2, 2018

Thank you all so much for sticking with us through the last year. This is our last episode until autumn, when we will come back after our summer hiatus all recharged and ready to rumble. In the meantime, we still have nearly an hour of Country Dweller Discussions. We get a visit from the Temperance card; we talk Hedge Witch tips; The moon is waning gibbous in Aquarius and what does that mean for you and your magic. We connect with festivals and preview that we’ll be at Puget Sound Pagan Pride on October 28. We make Pizza Tacos during Cauldron Cooking and Pay It Forward. As always we leave you with some Old Ones Wisdom and a Spell of the Week.

Episode 44, Season One, A Flaming Hot Summer Prep, May 26, 2018

Well met, loyal listeners!

We have a fiery three-way tarot reading this week, then talk about veggie planting. Then there’s this Scorpio Moon of endings. We learn about the stone Beryl. We challenge you to try something new this summer, maybe even try your hand at this week’s Cauldron Cooking: Rhubarb-Strawberry Pie with a bit of pucker power magick. Kissey-kissey! We do a little preaching on journaling and talk about food as medicine. As always we leave you with a powerful spell of the week.

Apologies if the puppies playing int he background of the podcast are distracting. Runa’s familiars were a bit hyper this week — they’re getting pumped up for summer.
