Post-Eclipse Changes, Episode 11, August 26, 2017

Our handsome Prince of Cups came to join us for the podcast this week.

Greetings Listeners!

This week’s episode explores the after effects of the solar eclipse and we’re visited by the Prince of Cups. We learn that it’s a time for Libra Lovers and Secret-Keeping Scorpios. It’s time to start planning to make your corn dolls, god’s eyes, and bulb planting. We talk Gringo Chicken and Puget Sound Pagan Pride. The spell of the week is particularly powerful and you’ll want to listen in below without delay.

Again, please leave a comment, question, or content request here. We’ll happily respond to you here or on our podcast.

Blessed Be,

Cutting the Cords that Bind Us, Episode 10, August 19, 2017

The 10 of Wands …it’s kind of like fire times 10. 😉

This week’s podcast we talk about cutting negativity, banishing, the eclipse, our hair, and Kale Chips. The Ten of Wands is our Tarot reading. And MareLin invites everyone to Snoqualmie’s Railroad Days where she will be providing healing Tarot Card Readings, where you MAY get to see the illusive Runa Troy.

Ravens Visit, Quiet Time, & Crone’s Wisdom, Episode 9, August 12, 2017

This week’s Tarot card reading is for the Moon Card. Start singing Moon Shadow right now! 😉

First off, please wish MareLin well. Keep her in your thoughts, intentions, and meditations. She’s been a bit too ill. She’s resting now and should be on the mend soon. But, she toughed it out and did our podcast anyway. Good on ya, witch! Be well.

This week’s podcast, besides illness subduing MareLin, includes a reading of the Moon Card, herbalism discussions, including things to do with echinacea, calendula, camomile, feverfew, and valerian. There’s an Aries Moon that could make things ripe for arguments, but should produce some good internal magick workings. There’s still a universe of retrograde going on, so listen up. Good time to watch the heavens as the Perseid meteor shower is making an appearance, and of course there’s the solar eclipse coming up and we’re in that event’s shadow now.

We’ve opened up our platform here to provide a community for pagans, especially in our local area. We talk about events at Our Lady Of The Earth And Sky as well as The Old Tree Metaphysical Shoppe & Healing Space. We give you a recipe for Roasted Tomato Bruschetta Topping for sharing at such events, as well as our spell of the week.

Again, please leave a comment, question, or content request here. We’ll happily respond to you here or on our podcast.

Blessed Be,

And The Heavens A’Fire – Episode 8 – August 5, 2017

The Tarot Card of the Week is the Queen of Pentacles. Listen to the Podcast to hear MareLin’s reading.

Greetings Listeners! Thank you and welcome to all our new listeners. Listen for special shout-outs to those who took the plunge early to follow us.

This week we are visited again by the Queen of Pentacles, and we’re very curious how our listeners would compare and contrast her first visit to this week’s visit. What do you think?

Here is a list of websites for practicing your own moon phase interpretations:

earthsky.org

timeanddate.com

nasa.gov

thewhitegoddess.co.uk

We move this week from the sexual influences of Scorpio in our skies to the Confliction of Capricorn. Listen to the pull to be out in nature (whether its a balcony, patio, a city park, trails, or deep in the wilderness). We’re visited by the Corn/Lightning Moon and Matchsticks of Fire occur at 11:11 a.m.

Our cauldron cooking focuses on Stuffed Poblanos, we figure out gardening to-dos for August, and we get our groove on with musical self care.

If you’re looking for more ritual and spell work from this week’s podcast, please do visit MareLin at www.theoldtreeshoppe.com

It’s a Sex Attack! – Episode 7 – July 29, 2017

How do The Alchemist and this week’s moon cycle fit together? Listen below to find out.

Hey there, lovelies. This week’s episode you’ll need to put away your inner 12-year-old, because we’ll be talking about Sex Magick. We’re visited by The Alchemist, have a huge amount of gratitude to bless Mother Gaia with, we bake and break bread,  and the Old Ones dance in the moonlight for one and all.

If after you’ve listened and you want to play the mini-ritual during your own work, it begins at mark 43:44:00.

Crone Moon Full of Politics & Recipes – Episode 6 – July 22, 2017

This week’s Tarot card was the Eight of Wands. Listen to the podcast below to hear all about it.

Greetings Listeners, Followers, and Fellow Country Dwellers:

First off, please forgive the couple of bloops in our recording. We had our microphone set to the wrong setting and it picked up MareLin’s ceiling fan, which pinged the sensitivity of the mic. Runa did her best to minimize the damage. But, we’ll fix it in the next podcast, so, “bear” with us as MareLin goes off and hugs the teenage Ursidae in her yard.

At any rate, we talk about Etsy and the closing of Pagan Shops, Moving to Canada, and like we mentioned above…sometimes there is politics.

This week’s card is the Eight of Wands, which leads nicely into this week’s almanac focus of water conservation, dream work, Ritual Bath Soak/Cleansing.

Here’s MareLin’s Water Purification for Hydration and Detoxing:

1 Quart of Water

1 tsp of Cayenne Pepper

Freshly mulled mint leaves (to taste)

half a cucumber peeled & sliced

Whole lemon, quartered, juiced and rinds reserved

Ginger Root, grated to taste

Put all ingredients together in a pitcher and drink. Refill in one day to get your hydration covered. Be ready for lots of energy. 

Again, please leave a comment, question, or content request here. We’ll happily respond to you here or on our podcast.

Blessed Be,

MareLin would also like to acknowledge that she knows the difference between parameter and perimeter; just go with it as you’re listening. The parameter of the perimeter, if you will.

Again, please leave a comment, question, or content request here. We’ll happily respond to you here or on our podcast.
