| Ep. 136: Learning Witchcraft Is Free | 31 Mar 2025 | 00:53:30 | |
Hello, friends! In this month's episode, I wanted to talk about how you don't need money to practice witchcraft. I discussed the concept itself, maybe controversial opinions about the way creators talk about it, and walked you through the process of just exactly how you can cast spells with no tools at all. This episode was inspired by Nat the Horse Witch on YouTube, where she gave her opinion on the statement that you don't need money to practice witchcraft. »» MENTIONED - Nat the Horse Witch's Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wjf52B0UH_4 - Spellcraft and Spellwork by Ariana Carrasca: https://roundthecauldron.com/2024/08/14/book-review-spellcraft-and-spellwork-by-ariana-carrasca/ - 'Round the Cauldron on Insight Timer: https://insighttimer.com/roundthecauldron --- 📚 Get my books! → Whispers of the Soul: Unveiling Light through Shadow Work → Embracing Peace: Guided Meditations for the Spiritual Person ---»» ONLINE → Shop ----- 'Round the Cauldron participates in affiliate marketing.

| Ep. 135 - Discernment in Magical Spaces & Cutting Through the Bulls**t | 28 Feb 2025 | 01:05:54 | |
Hello, friends! In today's episode, we're going to talk about why discernment in magical practices is important and how you can develop your skills to see through the bulls**t! From mundane examples to magical ones, this episode covers methods for critical thinking, intersectional research, and my thoughts on some questionable statements made in witchcraft spaces. »» MENTIONED - Ysha, The Activist Witch: https://www.youtube.com/@activistwitch - CRAAP Method: https://youtu.be/YnKv5mFeGF4 - BITE Model: https://freedomofmind.com/cult-mind-control/bite-model-pdf-download/ - Hearth Witch Advanced Witchcraft Video: https://youtu.be/XW8xgMO9nxg?si=LUYoX-Z1poCFbtfN - Rh-Negative blood information: https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/21053-rh-factor - Hemolytic Disease of the Fetus: https://www.nationwidechildrens.org/conditions/hemolytic-disease-of-the-fetus-and-newborn-hdfn --- 📚 Get my books! → Whispers of the Soul: Unveiling Light through Shadow Work → Embracing Peace: Guided Meditations for the Spiritual Person --- → Shop → YouTube ----- 'Round the Cauldron participates in affiliate marketing.

| Episode 128: Self-Care and Witchcraft: What it is and ideas for your routine! | 28 Feb 2023 | 00:35:15 | |
Self-care has become a large focus for me in my personal life, so much so that I find I have integrated my self-care practice and my witchcraft practice using different routines and ideas. I'm at the stage now of burnout recovery, so self-care but to an extreme. But what is self-care, and how should you approach it within a magical context? We're going to explore that today!

You don't get to pick your Gods like you pick socks because Gods aren't socks. From my perspective, the Gods are their own entities with their own wants, needs, and emotions. It isn't like picking the socks you want to wear for the day, and here's why.

| Episode 127: Getting Back to Basics || Why you should go back and start over! | 31 Jan 2023 | 00:40:57 | |
Sometimes you just have to start over, ya know? Go back to the basics of your practice and really figure out what you enjoy, what matters the most to you, and how you can further deepen your connection to your faith and witchcraft! The last few years have seen tremendous growth in both my personal and witchy life. Both things and people have come and gone. Life has changed, my practice has changed, and I have changed. All of these changes have brought chaos and disconnection into my daily life, so I've been feeling the need to get back to basics, as they say, and really connect to my practice again from the beginning. This can be a fun and enlightening exercise in personal growth and self-awareness.

| Episode 31: Revisiting Theisms and My Personal Story | 02 Sep 2019 | 00:31:09 | |
I have grown in my spirituality, and some things have shifted for me. Tune in to listen while we revisit the ideas behind the different "-theisms", their definitions, and how I've grown to know them. ~ Atheism - a lack of belief or a strong disbelief in the existence of a god or any gods ~ Hard vs. Soft Polytheism? Is it a thing? Is Wicca inherently duotheistic? Monotheistic? That depends on how you see the Gods. Are they their own beings, or do you believe in them as archetypes? That is duotheism, not polytheism. Can soft polytheism be a thing when, semantically, you're just describing duotheism or monotheism if you believe all Gods are one God and all Goddesses are one Goddess? =========================================== Michelle Simkins|Nature Writing|A Brief Theistic Lexicon: http://bit.ly/2PmI0D0 Polytheistic Witchcraft|Polytheist: a Definition: http://bit.ly/2MLTWvU Althaea Sebastiani|Approaching the Gods: http://bit.ly/2ZvuC37 =========================================== Also, please don't feel like you have to donate, but if you do, I will be eternally grateful!

| Episode 29: Pagan Perspective – Why Choice is Important | 19 Aug 2019 | 00:20:05 | |
NOTE:: I'm sorry for the background noise and noisy interruptions (wind, plane, etc.). It was nice when we first started recording and I didn't realize how loud the sounds would be. I tried to make them as quiet as possible, but alas, it didn't help too much. Today's episode is a bit short since I'm still getting my bearings with recording in front of a camera as well as editing the audio. My daughter wanted to be in this video too, which was perfect because I spoke about a topic that was actually inspired by a choice she made. So, why is choice important? How do I view this as a Pagan and Wiccan? How does this affect my parenting? And what is the illusion of choice? Facebook | |||
| Episode 28: Be a Good Person, Dammit! | 12 Aug 2019 | 00:28:42 | |
The world seems like it's going to sh*t. There is so much wrong happening in the United States right now, and our leaders are pointing fingers. They're looking for scapegoats instead of trying to solve the problem. How do I view this as a Pagan? How do my spiritual beliefs affect my political ones? How does my experience with mental illness and mental health color my opinion on the atrocities taking place in the USA? Because they do. But what can you do to help? Be a good person, dammit!

Content Warning: Brief mentions of sexual assault, politics, rape, abortion, suicide, etc. No details are mentioned. Mild language is used. Why is it important for you to be involved in the politics in your country? As pagans, Wiccans, and general human beings, we need to be involved in the things that interest us as well as protect those around us. It is important for these decisions to be made based on facts and science and not faith and religion. Be the change you wish to see in the world, have compassion for others, and base decisions on laws that affect other people in science and not faith and religion.

Get my live reactions from the crap (and not-so-crap) that you can find on Google about witchcraft and Wicca. Pro-tip: How to be a real witch? Practice witchcraft! Note: When speaking about Dianic Wicca, I mention that my issue with Dianic Wicca is that some do not allow transgender women to practice in their coven because they are not anatomically women. This was the incorrect verbiage on my end and I do apologize. If I understand correctly, the proper wording should be anatomically female.

I don't personally label my witchcraft, though I have labeled my polytheistic practice. Don't forget that labels are community created and arbitrary -- they only matter if they matter to you!

Anyway, have a listen to me chatting about some of the tools we use in Wicca and what I think the most important tool of all is! Announcement: We're moving this month, so episodes might not be up every Monday like I hope. I'll let you know if that's going to happen though! Links!

| Episode Five: Threefold Law | 28 Jan 2019 | 00:34:14 | |
With all of the misinformation out there, I thought it fitting to talk about the ThreeFold Law, especially after talking about the Wiccan Rede in the last episode. Please keep in mind that these are my thoughts and opinions and won't necessarily apply for ALL Wiccans, especially those in a coven that has rules to follow depending on their tradition. So buckle up and get ready for a bit of a rant on why I dislike the threefold law, its history, and my problems with it.

| Episode Four: The Wiccan Rede | 14 Jan 2019 | 00:36:46 | |
What's in this episode? 1. What is the Wiccan Rede? This episode is a *bit* scripted because I have trouble forming my thoughts into words...but I hope you enjoy this educational and opinionated episode about the history of the Wiccan Rede, what it means to me, and how you can apply it in your every day life.

| Episode 124: The Dullahan, The Good Woman, and The Death Coach | 31 Oct 2022 | 00:26:22 | |
This month, I was inspired to give a more spooky episode for the podcast, something steeped in legend and folklore. The Legend of Sleepy Hollow was written by Washington Irving, an American author that wrote the story detailing a Hessian soldier that was decapitated during a battle in the revolutionary war come back to life without his head. However, he isn't the first or only headless horseman in legend or myth. In Ireland and some other Celtic nations, there is another headless horseman that is commonly associated with The Dullahan. Today's story comes to us from Fairy Legends and Traditions of the South of Ireland by T. Crofton Crocker. It is the story of The Dullahan and the Headless Horseman. The full text is in the public domain and it is available on Project Gutenberg, as well as the full text of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Washington Irving.

| Episode 122: Can you use magic for personal gain? | 31 Jul 2022 | 00:24:04 | |
Someone on YouTube asked me to clarify my thoughts on using magic for personal gain. I hadn't done so in that particular video so here I am! The tldr; version of my answer is yes, you can use magic for personal gain. There is no hard and fast rule in witchcraft that says you can't use magic to get things you want or need. Listen in to hear my reasons, my thoughts on where this idea comes from, and how I feel that it is harmful to certain communities.
