Merry Meet Witchy people! In the Southern Hemisphere we are approaching Litha, the Summer Solstice or the Feast of the Faeries, and so Lucy put together a special blessed being on how the faeries can connect with us, and help us with our wellbeing. There’s Cauldron answers to questions about when the veils thin, the process of Oracle Card Publishing, and why one listener had a special interaction with Dragonfly and Bee. Lucy brings news of the Japanese tradition of Doll Funerals - and of why dolls are so often considered to be alive and ensoulled. There’s an update on the forthcoming the forthcoming Scottish Apology to the Witches of the Burning Times, and why celebrities (looking at you, Jennifer Aniston and Paris Jackson) starting covens and going public with their Witchcraft gets so poo-pooed - when it may not be a bad thing at all. There’s brilliant music in this episode - rock out to Amulet by Seawitch (the lyrics - Fiona Horne, you are a word witch indeed), and be enchanted by not one but TWO Wendy Rule songs to take you far away from the mundane and into the realms of the elementals. It’s a joyous Witchcast this week, magickal ones, and Lucy would LOVE to have your company in the sonic sacred circle. If you are feeling love for the Witchcast please do leave a rating or a review on iTunes, or Spotify, or wherever you get the Witchcast. It make a huge difference - very grateful for the support.

They’ve been made fun of, laughed at, scorned and ignored - but the elementals of the great beneath shape the minerals, infuse our food with earthy, wholesome energy, tend and care for the wounded animals, and help we humans find our way to more healthy and prosperous lives. That is, if we stop treated them less seriously than they deserve. Who is Lucy exploring in this episode of the Witchcast? It is none other than the much-maligned Gnomes, the wise Kings and Queens, the Elders of the deep earth, whose healing powers and ancient knowledge is needed now as we move into times of transition for Mother Earth. Lucy then shares news of historic and haunted pubs, where you can drink spirits along with, ahem, the spirits, and gets excited about the British Museum’s wondrous new exhibition celebrating the Famine Divine, in Her myriad manifestations throughout time and culture. Lucy also unpacks curious listener's magickal questions, offers insightful advice, and ventures into the ways in which pop culture events are embracing the mythic and the occult. Featuring Pagan songs by artists as diverse as Wendy Rule, Suzanne Vega along with Eric Burdon and War, this is a beguiling episode that takes a very fresh look at beings both fabled and fabulous. Welcome to the sonic sacred circle, Witches! Blessed Be!

As the Wheel turns, the maiden awakens, bone mother begins to lose her hold, and the land approaches her rebirth. Light up your candles, let down your hair, and dance in the green, Witches! In the southern hemisphere the sweet, fresh, newborn energy of Bride is arising, and as she slowly rises from her winter slumber, the land begins to shimmer and stir with new life.

The Witchcast - Astronomer, Philosopher, Witch? Discover Hypatia of Alexandria, Kate Bush’s Angelic Magick and Insightful Listener Readings 1:38:34

il y a 3 years1:38:34

1:38:34

Blessings and welcome to you all, beautiful souls. In this episode of the Witchcast, Lucy watches (through tears) Agora, a film about Hypatia of Alexandria, a legendary Pagan (or was she?) scholar and teacher accused of Witchcraft, murdered by Christians in ancient Alexandria. Called by some the first Pagan martyr, the Witchcast explores Hypatia's brilliance, her neo-Platonic philosophy, her discoveries, and the catastrophic rift between pagans - or polytheists - and Christians in the late Roman Empire. Lucy analyses the film’s depiction of this remarkable woman, searching for truths about the Alexandrian age, the dreadful loss of the knowledge within that city's famed Library, and how one bad bishop can change the course of western history. Then, well. You can see there is a huge rediscovery of Kate Bush taking place at the moment. Babushka tik-toks, Withering Heights dance days and the revival of Running Up That Hill - or a Deal with God, thanks to Stranger Things. But did you know that one of Kate Bush’s songs is Magick in practice? Lucy shares a unique song from Kate Bush that is actually a true invocation of four Archangels that you can play to protect and shield yourself. Kate had an enduring relationship with a spiritual healer, whose crone-like wisdom and voice appears throughout her album, the Red Shoes. We move then to Lucy offering readings for listeners, with some very tricky questions answered by the cards, PLUS a reading for YOU. All this, and gorgeous pagan music - this is a powerful episode. Thankyou to Shayne, to Georgia, and to all the supportive and generous Patreon Family for their ongoing support, which is immensely appreciated. Gratitude to the sponsors of the Witchcast: Primal Healing Hemlock and Dagger (they're back!) Kohli Tea Blue Angel Healing Love and appreciation for the support from all of the listeners. Please rate or review the Witchcast if you could, as it helps the show to find its future listeners, and helps us all gather together within the sonic sacred circle. Blessed be!

The Witchcast - Wardruna - An Interview with Einar Selvik 1:24:45

il y a 3 years1:24:45

1:24:45

One man stands perfectly still upon the stage, filling the theatre with a sense of the profound, the past, the deeply sacred. There is no banter, no breaking the ambiance of ceremonial space alongside brother and sisters band members, all still and sombre as ancient stones. From them, something pure - the songs of the world - pours out. He creates music with the atmosphere, bones and birch groves and rivers. He plays traditional instruments that are the same our ancestors called up the Gods with. He sings of a deeper, wilder, truer part of ourselves, of runes and sacred places, of forests and resting places and the older Gods. His music made the TV show Vikings come to authentic life and his cameo in that show is iconic. After twenty years of playing, Einar Selvik's compositions, along with his band, Wardruna, have finally and justly found world-wide acclaim, which he seems not terribly interested in, because his purpose is creating something raw, old and true, so we can remember who we are. Yes, (a very nervous!) Lucy and Einar Selvik talk of animism, the ritual aspect of a live Wardruna performances, the beauty of longing, black metal, white ravens, white stags and the honesty of presence. Featuring three tracks from First Flight of the White Raven, this is a beautiful, wise, honest sharing from an amazing composer about our humanity, memory, our connection to Nature, creating what is needed, and being true as a performer. Wardruna have just released a new album that was all recorded live, and are touring Europe and The United States. Do everything you can to experience them, starting with this conversation, beautiful Witches. Thankyou so much to Shayne Brian and Chris Maric for working so hard to set up this interview over and again - we did it! Thanks to Shayne as always for his beautiful production work, to Georgia for the lovely imagery, to the incredible Patreon community who keep the Witchcast flying on her broomstick!

1:19:35

Blessed be, beautiful souls and welcome to the sonic sacred circle that is the Witchcast. In this episode Lucy explores the impact of Scottish Apology to Witches, and shares the very eerie faery tale of the Reverend Robert Kirk, the preacher who was taken away by the fae. The author of The Secret Commonwealth of Elves, Fauns and Faeries, this reverend has had a profound influence on the relationship between humans and faerie beings. Lucy untangles the twisted history of his abduction and legend, and why both had such a profound impact on Witches and elementals alike. Then we move to song! Your voice is one of your most sacred and powerful magickal tools you could have, Witch - yet throughout history, women’s voices have often been forbidden, encapsulated perfectly by the demonisation of the mermaid and her song. Lucy offers ways to reconnect with your own powerful Witch voice, and sing once again the song of your soul. In between there is a lot of gorgeous pagan music, little moments of magick and whimsy, and most of all a warm and accepting magickal circle for you to share! With thanks to the most excellent producer, Shayne Brian, to Nordic Daughter for the use of We Are One, to Georgia for beautiful visuals, and to all of the ever evolving Patreon family whose support helps keep the Witchcast on her broomstick and flying high!

Welcome to Valhohl! Well, maybe not right now, but the Northman may be as close as we can get to re-experiencing a past life in pagan times. In this episode of the sonic sacred circle, Lucy drives far far away to see the Northman, and come back kind of overwhelmed with beauty, brutality, and time travel to a truthful, raw, awe-inspiring Pagan past. She shares some of the powers and attributes of the deities and stunningly accurate rituals featured within the epic film by the amazing Robert Eggers. Explore Freyr, Hel and the Norns with Lucy, and discover primal forms of Witchcraft and Magick from Viking history, including Seidr, and unearth the energies of the Valkyries. Find out the witchy truths behind Friday the 13th, and why it’s a wonderful day for Witchy people! Then we visit the Shining Ones, as we detour into the land of Faerie, to listen in to three moving readings with the Wild Wisdom of the Faery deck - on curses, dream teachings, and decoding symbolism in visions.

She moves through listener’s questions about visions - and how to know if one is offering clarity and lessons about a past life, or is it a whisper or warning from the future. She unravels a dream about curses - and how to disempower the negative energy if it is indeed being sent your way! Lucy shares an abundance of pagan news, including how seance art and channeled paintings have taken over the world of high Art, whether blood rites are ever okay, and insight into a traditional pagan chant’s new life in pop music.

Blessed Equinox, beautiful souls, and welcome to your world between the worlds! Join Lucy Cavendish this week as she takes you through her guide to scrying, shares two powerful spells - one to stop rumours and bitchcraft, the other a broomstick spell to sweep away any energy, feelings or situations that needs to leave right now! In between there’s reports from Ukrainian witches, plus how one Ukrainian woman is saving Irish Wolfhounds in Kyiv, and the ways the international pagan community is coming together in solidarity to help their brothers and sisters in Ukraine. And how the spirit of Baba Yaga is offering courage - and maybe even curses - to people in Ukraine. Lucy explores why Megan Thee Stallion and Dua Lipa’s song about witches rising from the ashes was just way too much for some folk, and shares which quirky 90s band is going full pagan! Lucy answering listeners’ questions, shares some incredible songs, including a collaboration between Wardruna and Aurora, and take you through the beautiful light and shadows of both the Autumn and Spring equinoxes. Thankyou to all the Patreon supporters who make the Witchcast happen every episode - big love to all the sponsors, and applause applause to Shayne Locke for sonic genius and to Georgia for visual brilliance.
