Meet Jackie!

She is a clan-sister of Reverend Raven and joined Rev and Anna-Lisa for a Sol Sister chat this week.

She goes by many names and projects; Sol, Aura Sol, Becoming Unstoppable, Ashley Aura ART, and Bridging the Gap: Thoughts that Matter Podcast, and a ManiSol Art Collective partner. She gets her hands into a lot of passion projects but at the root of them all is Intuitive & Plant Magic. As a lover of ritual and knowing how empowering it is to take matters into your own hands across the board of Body, Mind and Spirit, she's been slowing down and connecting to her passions in a deeper way. It is also within her radar to help those that are actively seeking a better understanding and practice of self love, healing, and growth. She fully believes that you can reprogram yourself, support your systems, and connect to spirit so that you can be YOUR best self, as many times as it takes for you to be your version of successful and happy.

You can find her on a pretty regular basis serving up sunshine, realness and beautifully vulnerable moments on her Facebook and other links here:

"Bibbidi Bobbidi Poutine. You DO NOT
need a routine."

Spirit Magic may well be our favorite type of Magic. It is the whole basis of why we started this podcast. And me-oh-my, did Spirit have A LOT to say over these past few weeks. We tried not once but twice to record this Spirit Magic episode, and twice Spirit came in hard and said, "No, Ladies. Not today."

There was more magic and fun to be had, more messages to be received, and, most importantly, more lessons to be learned. A direct message from Spirit through the cards during this conversation was "Ask an ally." Spirit is our biggest ally just lying in wait to assist
us in our magical journey. We are grateful to have our entire Spirit Council's help as often as we can.

Come along with us into this week's episode where we are not only talking about Spirit Magic, but Spirit joins right into this conversation.

This week it is all about Water Magic.

Spirit made it clear that the sacredness of water was the main topic of this conversation. From Water's current events to the powers of the hurricanes to the soothing way Water moves through us as we process emotions, we knew this was no element to be taken lightly. We found ourselves using words like consent, reverence, and respect regarding the waters available to us. Water is here to work with us and through us, as it is the largest part of our human bodies and our earthly home.



Join us in listening to this conversation and take a little time to give thanks and praise for the element of Water.

Reverend Raven & Anna-Lisa made a new best friend this week in James Divine of Divine Hand Palmistry!! In what was supposed to be a conversation about palmistry magic & magical businesses...instead, James went and threw down a magical mic drop on us in an unexpected conversation about life, joy, magic, and invitations from the universe. We very briefly touch on Palmistry this episode and plan to have James back for a much deeper dive into all things Palm Magic and to talk more about his own personal palm reading method! For now, we are excited to share this heartwarming conversation between new magical friends.

James Divine has been studying palmistry for over 35 years, and is the creator of the Divine Hand method, blending modern observations of body language and gestures with traditional metaphysical correspondences. James' mission is to transform palmistry from a shadowy, occult practice to an enlightened method of revealing our greatest potential. James is also High Priest of Spectrum Grove in Seattle, having practiced in the Sylvan Tradition of witchcraft since 1998. ​James teaches palmistry in an apprenticeship program, presents workshops across the country on various esoteric and magical topics, and is currently working on his first book. James lives in Seattle with his husband and their partner, and is a proud step-dad and grandpa.

The Divine Hand Palmistry seeks to transform and improve the perception and practice of palmistry in the world. Founded in 2002 by James Divine (Jim Barker), the business serves as a structure to support the dissemination of the method, and to support the Divine Hand Method practitioners and students.

We interviewed Yolanda of Trinity Holistic Hypnosis this week and it was quite an enlightening conversation! Yolanda fills us in on what hypnosis is really about, Adreyauna tells her own hypnosis story, and we talk about how you are probably a lot more familiar with hypnosis in your day-to-day life than you realize.


Yolanda's bio reads:

"Although raised in a very religious household, I knew at an early age that it did not resonate with me. I had a vague remembrance that I was a spiritual being having a human experience. I did not believe that our power was outside of us and that I had to speak to God through someone else. I studied a variety of world religions and discovered how people all over the world connected to spirit. It was at that point that I began to learn and use spiritual practices. As I began studying energy medicine and my calling crystalized, that I founded Trinity Holistic Hypnosis. We are conditioned to give our power away and invest in a reality that siphons our energy while profiting on our trauma. We aren’t aware of how powerful we are and that we are in co-creation. It is with deep gratitude that I am able to serve my clients and help them live more balanced, harmonious and authentic lives. We all have medicine and our bodies hold vast libraries of wisdom, wisdom that is always communicating with us but is often obscured by conditioning, patterns, belief systems or traumas. My gift is showing others how to deeply listen and perceive the ways consciousness speaks to them and use the medicine within.

-Yolanda"

We have delved into Divination before, but like any great lesson, it deserves a deeper look behind the curtain.
This conversation is a bit more personal as the Magical Trio talks about their struggles and challenges with their divination practices. Reverend Raven is working on mastering the Runes, Adreyauna has heard the call from a set of Bones, and Anna-Lisa is learning the language of the Tarot in a whole new way. But, never the ones to turn away from a good challenge, your favorite magical ladies are using this space to hold each other accountable for their divinatory practices and progress.


Tell us what your favorite but most challenging (but worth it!) Divination practices are!?

"Imbolc. Here we are in seed time, dream time, looking for the cracks of light that tell us to stretch out and grow. We are invited to consider this possibility: What if there is nothing wrong? What if there is no too slow? What if we live a miracle every single day, and we don't have to earn it?
As the first shoots of tentative growth begin to lift, and we sense the beginning sparks of possibilty, of new ways of being, we may feel the itch to create a lengthy to-do list for a new year. Resist and sit, curled and waiting. Uncover what is enough. Not in the sense of playing too small, but the kind of enough that allows creativity to blaze and joy to bloom, the kind of enough that opens space in our lives to hold ourselves and our seed dreams. Darkness and silence can hold both the sparks of our dreams and the embers of our hopes.
We are our own seeds of promise"
-Molly Renner, Mother Tongue Ink 2022

This is an except from Reverend Raven's witchy planner and it is such a beautiful description of exactly what we are discussing in this week's episode. Its all about Imbolc and Anna-Lisa, Adreyauna & Reverend Raven helping to hold each other accountable on their goals both magical and not for 2023.

Are you holding yourself accountable for the seeds you are planting?

Adreyauna and Reverend Raven are talking all about self-care with Kaye Rice-Scott of KR Naturals this week. This conversation hits some really BIG points about how sometimes self-care is not always bubble baths or a hot shower.....but it also totally is sometimes!!

KR Naturals Mind & Body offers handmade bath teas and shower melts (Chill Pills) to promote wellness and self-care as a daily practice. The brand was born from a single mother's desire for a "budget-friendly" at-
home spa experience when there was no money for spa treatments. Their products provide a luxury spa experience at an affordable price, right in the comfort of your home.

Kaye's philosophy is you can't give your best to others until you first give your best to yourself and the magical ladies here at this podcast are HERE FOR THAT!!!!

Feast your ears on this conversation with a whole new type of witch! Adreyauna & Anna-Lisa got the special opportunity to tune in with Captolia, The Digital Witch!

Captolia is a brand + magnetic marketing coach for witches and mystics. Her work empowers magical business owners to claim their authenticity, take up space online unapologetically, and to claim abundance through their great work in the world. She lives in Brattleboro, Vermont with her 15 year old Chihuahua, and when she isn’t working, you can catch Captolia watching trashy reality TV or t sneaking in a cat nap.
Captolia believes in a radically enchanted world...She believes in the power of people to rise from the ashes and transform. She believes in a world where people don’t have to fight to exist. She believe in sacred community roles outside of capitalism. She believe in rest.
SHE BELIEVES IN A WORLD WHERE WE ARE ALL SAFE TO BE OUR MOST MAGICALLY HONEST SELVES. She believes that radical authenticity is your birthright.
💜All of the work Captolia does is centered in these beliefs. She breathes life into these values by teaching witches how to support and sustain themselves abundantly without having to dilute their authentic expression, exploit others, or labor for someone else’s profit to exist.

We had so much fun chatting with Captolia! The old ways are always good to learn and study and know, but these new witches certainly have something to teach us all.
She opened our eyes to new ways to use social media as an altar, to NEVER be afraid to be your own biggest hype person, and so much more!!!

Reverend Raven and Anna-Lisa are talking with local Medium Sean Michael Rutherford about all things Magic!

Growing up in a Cajun family in South Louisiana, Sean was always taught that the Spirit world was real and close by. As he got older and started understanding his ability to intuitively feel what others were going through in their lives, he started studying Tarot and Psychic work at 15. Sean spent his teenage years working hard to understand the spiritual connection, using it to help heal his traumas and all those for who Sean had the pleasure to work for. At 27 Sean lost his mother to cancer, delved head first into formal Evidential Mediumship to heal his grief, and vowed to work with others to help heal theirs.
After 20 years of study, work, and healing Sean has had the honor of reading for people all around the world and from every background and path, and now teaches what he knows to help others interested in the journey themselves.

Mediumship galleries, crystals, Magic in the new age, going TikTok viral, and so much more are all on the menu this week!!

Lori is answering all of our questions about her personal experiences with NDEs, struggling with reality and mental health after coming back to this reality. Then, how she harnessed the energy from this experience to turn her life into a life or service to help others who have been through and are struggling with such an experience. This, like so many things in Lori's realm, does not get enough attention and conversation time. So we are doing it!

Lori is an End of Life Doula with advanced training in Grief/Bereavement Support, Near Death Experiences, and Suicide Survivor Support. She is also a Usui Reiki Master/Teacher and Spiritual Life Coach with specialized training in Sound Healing/Sound Therapy and Meditation Coaching.

Anna-Lisa, Adreyauna, and Reverend Raven are back for Season 2 of Magical Aspirations. In this episode, we chatted with Misti Gaither and Cari Roy, local Paranormal Investigators!!!

New Orleans Psychic Medium Cari Roy has been featured on The Today Show, A&E Network, Fox News and The Discovery, Biography, and The Travel Channels. Recognized as New Orleans's most accomplished psychic medium, she is a third-generation spiritual practitioner making very fertile ground for her own abilities to develop, 30 plus years of professional experience have honed those abilities to skill. In addition to television appearances, Miss Roy is featured in documentaries about psychic development, has many published articles, is referenced in several books, and is in demand for private readings, special events, and speaking engagements. She also is a co-star and co-producer of the popular YouTube and Facebook show Paranormal New Orleans. Miss Roy is named the #1 Psychic Medium To See In New Orleans by travelchannel.com and is Recommended Best Psychic Medium To See In The USA by bbcamerica.com.

Misti Gaither is from a small town in Louisiana and when she was young she was known to have the gift of spirit. As she grew older so did her gift and she developed her lifelong love of anything paranormal. She began conducting paranormal investigations in New Orleans and during this time her medium abilities really started to flourish. She continues to offer her services of bringing answers and peace of mind to those who are seeking connection to the other side and bringing messages from loved ones that have passed. When she isn’t active in mediumship and the paranormal, she is very active in the LGBTQA community and is the host of the popular Lez Talk About It talk show which is a weekly talk show based in New Orleans. Together they form a duo that seeks to bring light to some of the darkest corners of the French Quarter.

Join the 5 of us in a conversation about mediumship, some local Nola haunts, and much more.

Psychic Believes Former Theatre Manager Never Left - YouTube
Jack and Katrina investigate the Malco Theatre which sits in the heart of the bubbling resort town of Hot Springs, AR. This former movie palace has a rich, and often dubious, history, once burning down to its foundation during a mysterious Christmas fire in the 1930's and witnessing the rise and fall of mobster rule in Hot Springs during the Prohibition Era. Rumors of death and suspicious dealings surround the Malco, but a lack of concrete historical documentation only adds to its mysteries.

Jack Osbourne and Katrina Weidman investigate the world's most sinister haunted locations they suspect are gateways to the spirit world. They peer into the dark void of the unknown as they document evidence of paranormal activity and search for answers about the afterlife. This is the future of paranormal research, and Jack and Katrina are taking along a team of seasoned pros to record it all.
