PODCAST

I've been studying on this, y'all: making sacred places in my life to harbor my Craft through the darker days to come. In the past, I have put myself last as I built my store for winter. Let’s be honest: there were very few special places carved out just for me. Here in the last year of my fifties, something has shifted within me. Now, I know how critical those spaces, those harvests, truly are as a Witch. It’s almost time to ride, Witches. What have you put up for that journey?

Thought I'd share, and as always: love y'all like chicken. Seba

'm whooped, y'all. It took me a week to release this, just struggling over how personal it all was and then I remembered: this is what we do.

We all know that life moves on, sometimes brutally so, stealing away both youth and time. But there are things that folks should not to be able to take from you. I'm leaving in a few weeks on a mission to recovery a few of those buried treasures.

And I've got a shovel.

Love y'all like chicken,
Seba

Hey, y’all. I’m fairly fed up with the onslaught of well-meaning folk who barrage me (and others) with the urgency of the act of forgiveness. In my experience, trauma requires quite a bit of heavy lifting, bloody labor, and the strength of the gods. In light of that load, I cannot imagine asking someone to also include the work of forgiveness, and all that such an act could entail.

My question today is simply: is it a part of Witch culture to forgive? Or, and just stay with me for a moment: is it more Christian culture?

These are the thoughts I’m ruminating upon today. Join me on the porch and let’s hammer this out, shall we?

Y'all know that I really admire John Beckett, aka the author of Under the Ancient Oaks on Patheos. Often, something he muses upon fires up something in my own brain and I have to speak to it. His latest article "Sigil Magic: Did The Spell Work?" really hit for me. Of course, I took this a different direction (sorry, John, you know my wandering), but the question kept creeping up in my mind: how do we know if it could have?

Join me on the porch, Batchildren, to think through the other side of this coin.

Love y'all like chicken,

Well, y'all, I meant to write about moon magic. But then, I turned on the mic and this just fell out of my soul.

But, it’s relevant to where we are in this country right now, where I’ve been in my journey and battle against the patriarchy, and how its tendrils can slip around your life without much pomp or circumstance. It’s just insidious like that.

Save a chicken, fry the patriarchy, Witches!!

Love y'all like chicken! xoxo Seba

Sometimes, the price of "love" is too dear, Batchildren. What have we given up, as Witches?

Hope y'all are okay tonight. I know how the cognitive dissonance between what we believed was real and what is showing up can make you feel crazy. Fight like hell, Batchildren, to find your ground.

P.S.: Maybe, I hope, America will get her voice back one day.

Love y'all like chicken, Seba

Y'all, I thought I was just doing a quick episode that would amount to not much, but I like this one. It's something I've thought about for a long, long time.

Remember: don't strive for bippity, boppity, boo. Go for the long haul. Be the Witch you were born to be.

Love y'all like chicken,
Seba

Well, y'all, I got a listener letter from a Batchild. I hope they know how much I resonated with losing everything and having to rebuild. At the end of the day, turn to spiders, darling one.

Love ya like chicken,

Well, y'all: I'm canning and popping beans and am covered in sweat most days, but it feels like resistance to me. Y'all know my stance on this, but here's a little more about the magic of preserving the energy of Litha/Summer Solstice as the wheel begins to wane.

Love y'all like chicken, Seba
