E122: IN BETWIXT--THE UNSANITIZED WITCH Seba O'Kiley

Y’all, today I’m reading a listener letter about forging connection to Nature from limited spaces, such as apartments in the city and the like. But, also, I wanted to delve further into the idea of Crafting within the in-between spaces of dark and light. It has always been evident to me that these binary concepts (good/evil, black/white) do more harm than good. And so, I’m telling a story about how wholly buying into either of those polarities can throw us horribly off balance. It’s untenable to live that way, and as a Witch, I cannot imagine reducing my Craft to mere bane or glitter.

It occurs to me that we risk reducing ourselves to the ideologies of all who would attempt to categorize us as good, or evil, when we agree to those terminologies. After all, what we believe can become what we are. So, y’all nestle in on the porch. It’s story time—and I’ll leave the “moral” of the tale up to you.
