Three Witches and a Druid – Détails, épisodes et analyse

This week on Three Witches and a Druid, we welcome Sarah Lady Rose, owner of Mystic Moons Books and Brews in Moncton, New Brunswick. Sarah shares her journey of building a thriving occult and pagan shop that has become a cornerstone for the local spiritual community.

We talk about the challenges and joys of running a metaphysical store, the growing interest in pagan paths, and the importance of creating safe, welcoming spaces for seekers. Sarah also gives us a behind-the-scenes look at Mystic Moons, from its roots as a bookstore to the vibrant gathering place it has become.

Join us for an engaging conversation about community, spirituality, and the realities of walking the path of both priestess and shopkeeper.

The Three Witches and a Druid, welcome Rhonda Akasha McKinnon, a Reiki Master and practitioner of Sound Therapy, Tarot, Oracle readings, and Reflexology. Rhonda shares her personal and professional journey of working with these modalities to support healing and balance in others.

The conversation turns to her lived experience of grief and loss, and how the intentional use of psychedelics became a tool for moving through deep pain and reconnecting with life. Together, we explore:

• How Reiki, sound therapy, and reflexology can work together to restore harmony in body and spirit.
• The role of Tarot and Oracle cards in navigating difficult life transitions.
• Rhonda’s personal story of grief and how psychedelics provided a path toward healing.
• The importance of safe, intentional, and respectful approaches to psychedelic use.
• Insights on how energy work and altered states can intersect in the healing journey.

This is an intimate and thoughtful discussion about loss, resilience, and the ways spiritual and alternative practices can help us face the hardest moments of our lives.

This week, it’s Margo, Gwen, Maeve, and Brian— yes, the usual suspects— gathered ‘round our well-loved, wax-stained, definitely-seen-some-things coffee table.

We’ve got candles burning, notebooks open, and a tasty little black cherry cider from BC on the side (because we’re fancy like that).

But tonight’s topic? Oh, just a little something light and breezy like... Paganism and Clergy.
Yep—we’re going there.Paganism and Clergy.

Let’s be real: it’s not something you hear about every day in the wider world, but in our communities, it’s a conversation that’s long overdue.

We’re asking the big stuff:

🕯️ What is "clergy" , Pagan-style?
🕯️ Do we need it, or are we all just DIY priests and priestesses anyway?
🕯️ Who gets to say they’re clergy, and is there a secret Pagan paperwork club no one told us about?
🕯️ Most importantly, what does this look like in practice? From hospital visits and end-of-life care to handfastings and community rituals… does having a go-to spiritual person make a difference?

We’re getting into it with all the honesty, sass, and side-eye you’d expect. No gatekeeping, no fluff—just a real convo about leadership, service, and support in our modern Pagan lives.

✨ CALL TO ACTION: Okay, your turn.
Have you ever worked with clergy in a Pagan context, or been one? Do you think formal roles help or hurt the path? Got a spicy take on who gets to call themselves a High Priestess?
We wanna hear it!
Drop us a message, leave a comment, howl at the moon—whatever works. What do you think?

In the fields, John Barleycorn, who laid with the Lady in the woods at Beltane, has grown old, and now stands bent and bearded with a crooked cane. He looks to the Sun as he has changed from green to gold, and he knew that his time has come. His life will feed the people, and it is this sacrifice that we honour at Lughnasadh.

The Three Witches and a Druid sit around the Zoom table with hot beverages and Brian's second favourite Celtic Fire Festival Lughnasadh! While we are at it, we invited along Jennifer Hartman of Pagankids.org and discussed the holiday and her next book! A book you should all check out by the way!
