Y'all have heard of slow fashion and slow food. That designation usually means it's more meaningful, healthier for us and the planet, and altogether more valuable than the quick hits that we crave. Today, I'm talking about slow spellwork: the thoughtful and painstakingly thorough magic that lasts and deeply satisfies the soul.
Also, I read a letter from a witch who is struggling--I hope you will give it a listen. They deserve our support.
Love y'all! xoxo Seba
Hey, Y’all! I’m recovering from standing in the kitchen for ten hours, but it was all worth it in the end. Today is just a bit of a ramble about the importance of NOT getting everything just right.

Weaver November is coming to a close, and so is our huge giveaway over on Instagram. Don’t forget to follow me over there and run through the rules for your last shot at winning all of those goodies!
Y’all, it was my privilege and honor to have Dasos Crowsong on the show this week. We are winding down Weaver November by discussing the art of spinning, and actual weaving, and how it informs Dasos’s magic and journey as a Druid.

Read MoreAs a Gen X witch, pop culture tends to weave itself through my understanding of most things, including my childhood. No one example was more powerful than Laurie Strode.
Read MoreToday, I’m breaking down exactly what it means to me to witchify ‘ary damn thang. To see the world through my witchy glasses is to pull magic back into focus in all things, all day, all the time. This little ritual has saved me, over and over, from the horrors and dust of the mundane.
Read MoreHey, y’all! Snuggle up on the porch and let me tell you how I got my ass into hot water with my ancestors on vacation. Racism can pop up in the strangest places—and so, we need to be ready to go to battle on the turn of a dime. Also, a dear listener of mine wrote in about what it’s like to be queer while moving through the stages of cronehood, or is it haghood? Love y’all!
Read MoreWell, y’all: I barely got this one recorded before running off to my happy place on the coast. The chat on the porch is more of a wandering today down the backroads of the stories that have knitted my life together. Remember to stay for the moments after sunset . . . sometimes, that’s where the fun is.
Hey y’all! Snuggle up on the porch and let’s chat about all those warning signs, all those moments, in which we see a situation going south—but just cannot bring ourselves to do anything about it.
