PODCAST

This one is a bit short, y'all, as I am still cleaning up the aftermath of a freak storm out here. I know y'all remember me saying that "something wicked this way comes," and turns out it to be right on the money.

But I've got a plan. Hope y'all are hanging in there--hope you enjoyed my weird ramble in the clover last night over on Patreon--and I'm standing right back up with a walking stick.

Love y'all like chicken, as always,
Seba

Sorry, y'all: it was time. I've watched Witches let go of their magic click by click and needed to finally speak to this issue.

So, what is the relationship between art and magic? And, more importantly: what are the threats to that sacred connection?

Send me your thoughts on this one.

Also, and this is important: thank you so much for supporting this podcast. It's one of the ways that I attempt "art," and you are the reason I keep going. Love y'all like chicken!

xoxo Seba

There's a lot I'm not free to say here, y'all. But what I can push out into the world is this: Elders, specifically the Witch and Pagan kind, have more work to do.

And I'm not done talking about this.

Back to my farm I go, and I love y'all like chicken. xoxo, Seba

Snuggle up, Batchildren. We're chatting about our beloved (and sometimes not so beloved) dead tonight. When we ask the land to accept their bones, both hypothetical and very, very real, there is a responsibility that we take on in that covenant.

Let's take a walk to our cemeteries, shall we?

Love y'all like chicken,
Seba

Hey, y'all: I'm super tired tonight, so this is just a ramble about what's going on in this old witch's life. I've been noticing warning signs lately and am getting to work, tracking and locating the "boogieman" on this one. It may be more of a wander than usual.

Hope you all have a wonderful Mother's Day! (Also, I know I need to get y'all a porch talk--will do by Wednesday.)

Oh, and this one has a new "outro." With all the AI manipulated content out there, I thought I'd make my own stance clear as a podcaster and a Witch.

Love y'all like chicken,
Seba

Melissa, a Batchild and long-time listener, sent in a letter a while back that asked me how I "deal with living around the horrible selfish, cheeto-chompers in the deep south?" I have endeavored to answer that question the best way I know how.

Hope y'all's Beltane was beautiful! Mine was small and potent, but incredibly magical.

Love y'all like chicken! Seba

As promised, Batchildren, I dug in a little deeper. What is the difference between sacrifices and offerings, but more than anything: why are they not payment for services rendered?

Snuggle up on the porch and let's thing about that. Love y'all like chicken! Seba

TW: I discuss the moment my grandma died.

I've thought about this for a while, as my tendency to brace myself and grit my teeth in the face of hard places in my life is real. And somewhere along the way, I often miss something beautiful by doing so.

*Let's talk, Batchildren. It's time to put it all on the table.

When folks go through something earthshattering, they can't just go back to who they were--although, that would be awesome, I have to say. If I could, I would.

Maybe.

But these scars, this path, this Witch cannot bend time that way. I am someone changed. I may have the same roots, the same foundation even, but I'm growing in strange and delicious new directions. It was grow, or die.

Guess which one I chose.

It's a new chapter for me. Hope to meet you on the porch for it and, as always, I love y'all like chicken.

xoxo,
Seba

Well, I've never done this before outside of coven, but it felt fun and relevant. It's more of the "lesson" genre, something I don't normally do on a public forum. Y'all snuggle up on the porch and let's chat about it? (And if you're like my students, you might wanna grab a notebook and a pen.)

Intent, while important, just is not everything in the Craft. And here's why.

Love y'all like Chicken,
Seba
