In this episode of The White Witch Podcast we journey into the mysteries of Memento Mori — the timeless reminder of mortality — and explore how death, transformation and rebirth weave through witchcraft and esoteric traditions. In this episode I share - The meaning and history of memento mori. The Haliorunna and necromantic wisdom of the witch’s path. The story of Hiram Abif and the Masonic initiation of death and resurrection. How Alexandrian and Gardnerian covens use death-and-rebirth initiation rites. The echoes of these mysteries in Hermetic and Rosicrucian traditions. Norse philosophies of mortality and remembrance. Why burying the old self through ritual is essential for growth. Journal prompts, rituals and tarot/oracle spreads to work with the death/rebirth cycle in your own practice. This episode is both philosophical and practical — guiding you into the deep mysteries of why witches embrace death as a gateway to transformation, and how you can bring these initiatory currents into your own craft.

Witches have always known there is something otherworldly about mushrooms. They rise overnight, glowing in the damp dark, growing in rings that open into portals. They are death and rebirth embodied — feeding on decay to bring new life. In this episode we step into the mushroom circle together… We wander into the fairy folklore of toadstools and fae-rings. We explore the mysteries of Amanita Muscaria, the red-capped witch’s mushroom. We uncover how the Maya, Aztecs and Egyptians revered mushrooms in their magick and rites. We dive into how witches used them in flying ointments and how Druids worked with their mysteries. We trace their hidden links to alchemy and transformation. We explore their magickal properties and the unique powers of different mushroom types. And I share how to work with mushrooms in your own craft, including a recipe for a Death & Rebirth Anointing Oil infused with mushroom spirit. This is a journey into the strange, the sacred, and the liminal. Listen now and step into the mushroom’s circle of magick… if you dare. Our book review is Salems Lot by Stephen King.

September Witchcraft - Harvest Moon, Mabon, Heather & The White Hare In this episode, I’m stepping into the autumn magic of September — a time of gathering, gratitude and transition. We begin with the Harvest Full Moon, exploring its folklore and how you can weave its abundant energy into your craft. I dive into the lore of Heather — a plant long tied to luck, protection, and threshold spaces — and share its magical properties for spellwork and ritual. We celebrate Mabon, the autumn equinox, a sabbat of balance, harvest, and honouring the turning of the wheel. To close I read the folk tale of The White Hare — a story from Dorset legend filled with mystery and enchantment. Plus, I review The Cornish Witch by Elena Collins — a time-slip novel brimming with spirits, Cornwall’s landscape and the whisper of magic. Whether you’re preparing your altar for Mabon, gathering herbs beneath the Harvest Moon, or simply soaking in September’s shifting energy, this episode will guide you deeper into the magic of the season. Harvest Moon Tarot/Oracle Spread (5 cards — can be done with tarot, oracle, or a mix)  The Harvest — What have I gathered this season? → What blessings, lessons, or abundance is ripe and ready to acknowledge.  The Gratitude — What deserves my thanks right now? → Where to pour appreciation to strengthen roots.  The Balance — What is seeking harmony within me? → What needs to be brought into balance at this turning point of light and dark.  The Release — What must I let go of before winter? → Habits, fears, or weights that cannot come with you into the darker half of the year.  The Illumination — What guidance does the Harvest Moon shine upon my path? → The wisdom or vision that lights the way ahead.  Harvest Moon Journal Prompts  What am I most proud of harvesting this year — in work, spirit, relationships, or self?  Where in my life am I being called to pause and give gratitude?  What feels “out of balance” in me right now, and how might I restore harmony?  What am I ready to lay down, release, or compost before the dark months?  If the Harvest Moon could whisper one message to me, what would it be?  What seeds of intention do I want to carry safely through the winter, to blossom when light returns?  🍂 New Mabon Zine — Hearth & Hollow 🍂 Available now My newest seasonal zine Hearth & Hollow is here — a ritual companion for the turning of the wheel, steeped in folklore, shadow work, and hedge witch magic.

In this episode, we return to the crooked hut on chicken legs and the mysteries of Baba Yaga — one of the most iconic and complex witches of folklore. Years ago, I shared an episode exploring her myth and magic, and since then new works and perspectives have emerged that call for a fresh look. We will delve into - The deeper layers of Baba Yaga’s lore and symbolism How witches today can work with her as guide, teacher, and initiator New perspectives and different takes that expand on the old stories A review of The Book of Witchcraft by Semra Haksever - YouTube video referenced in the book review - https://youtu.be/M3ao8JQ5PJs?si=vzZPlAV8ijyUmlK_ Baba Yaga is both fearsome and wise, destructive and protective — a liminal figure who challenges us to face the truths we’d rather avoid.

Hello Witches Join me on todays episode of The White Witch Podcast where I dive deep into the realms of psychology, spirit and alchemy to uncover what it truly means to transform your life from the inside out. We explore - Viktor Frankl vs Freud – Why Frankl’s forward-facing philosophy of meaning and responsibility may serve us more than Freud’s obsession with the past. The Future Self – Connecting with your highest timeline and how to embody it now. Heaven & Hell Frequencies – The vibrations we step into daily Silence as God-Connection – How silence can be the most potent portal to the divine. Attention vs Intention – The difference between where our energy goes and what your energy consecrates. This is a contemplative episode – less about quick fixes and more about the deep shift into living as The Alchemist of your own existence. Journal prompts I use as referenced in this episode are - How do I feel in my body and energy field right now? What am I consciously calling in today? If it was already mine how would I feel and act? What aligned action or frequency shift can I take today to meet my desire? What limiting belief. fear or doubt is ready to be released? What new belief am I anchoring in its place? How can I hold the frequency of trust today no matter what? What signs, synchronicities or nudges have I received lately? What does my future self want me to remember today? One thing I am grateful for and one thing I am excited for? Grimoire pages are attached with journal prompts, rituals and concepts mentioned in this episode.

In this beautifully earthy conversation, I’m joined by author and word witch Sarah Robinson, whose book The Witch and the Wildwood has helped so many of us reconnect with the magic of place, myth, and the wild. Together we journey through the roots of her writing path — from movement and ritual with Yoga for Witches to ancestral land and sacred story. We explore the evolution of her books, the untamed call of the wildwood, and how witches across folklore, history, and landscape are reawakening through our modern lives. Sarah shares how she listens to the land and some powerful folklore she unearthed along the way. Whether you live in the countryside or the city, this episode will remind you that the land has a voice — and that witchcraft can be a way of walking with it. Topics we explore - How Yoga for Witches gave rise to Wildwood and Witch Country The magic of place-based spirituality — and how to practice it in daily life Witch archetypes across folklore, superstition and sacred land Re-enchantment and the return of the British witch Writing as a magical practice and act of devotion How to connect with land spirits, even in urban spaces A lesser-known piece of folklore that gave Sarah goosebumps Find Sarah here - https://www.instagram.com/yogaforwitches/?hl=en 🔥 A note from me -  Next week’s episode will be the final before I take a short break to rest, research, and weave the threads for Season 5. There are some big ideas brewing, and I want to give them space to bloom. If you’d love to journey deeper with me this month, our next Witches Who Run with the Wolves circle will be held on Thursday 31st July at 7PM BST for the Lionsgate Portal.
