What is a familiar? Is it different to a pet? Well, yes, and no, you see it really depends on the level of connection that you have with said animal. Shannon turns to a recent favourite book of hers- 'Witchcraft. The Library of esoterica' to help out with the historical roots, and definition of Familiars. Laura and Shannon then take turns to discuss more of the 'familiar familiars', so to speak. Together they cover the Cat, Raven, Spider, Snake, Toad/Frog, Owl, Mouse and Fox. Do you have a familiar?

This week we have a very special guest who is one of Shannon's mentors and teachers - the beautiful Kate Reed. Kate first held circle in her early 20's, and over the next couple of decades continued holding circles amongst the contours of her professional life as a counsellor, youth worker, health coach, and business owner. In 2015 she was called to devote herself full time to Circle work, and in 2016 started teaching this knowledge to other women. She is the woman and heart behind The Sister Circles, and over time has facilitated hundreds of Circles, Rituals and Workshops, and created a Level 1 and Level 2 Facilitator Training Program so women can take this work back into their communities. Her dream is that every woman has the opportunity to sit in a safe and empowering space as they navigate the joys and challenges of life. We loved speaking with Kate about all things circle work, ritual, elements and how it is such powerful medicine for us all... This episode we also touch on the devastating floods of the Northern Rivers region of NSW, which sadly Kate, her home & community were deeply affected by.

In today's episode Join Shannon & Laura as they dive into the world of Sacred Symbols Since the beginning of time people from all cultures across the globe have created symbols to use in ritual & divination, and to serve as good luck charms & protection sigils. We look into the meaning, folklore and uses of the Heptagram, Evil Eye, Sheela Na Gig, the Hamsa and Hexafoils! Did you know: a Heptagram has 7 points and is also known as a Fairy Star, the Evil Eye is often used to protect babies (there's also a few other tricks that Southern Italians have up their sleeves, such as the cornicello, cimaruta and the 'sign of the horns'), Sheela Na Gig doesn't mind a bit of anasyrma, the Hamsa is also known as The Hand of Fatima - and Hexafoils may just be pretty patterns made by carpentry apprentices practicing back in the day? We also answer a question from a dear listener, Jessie, about what to do when friends discover you are a witch and are less than supportive... Our Divine Tool of the Week - Carving candle magic!

Today we have a truly beautiful interview to share, one that resonated for us deeply! Molly Remer is a priestess, creatrix and teacher who has been gathering the women to circle, celebrate, sing and share since 2008. She is the author of 9 books, we have her on this episode to talk about her beautiful book released in 2021 by Womancraft Publishing, Walking With Persephone. Part memoir, part poetry, part soul guide. This book invites us to open our eyes to the wonder all around, encouraging the reader to look within for truths about living, but also to the earth, the air, the animals, and plants we all share our lives with. Shannon and Laura both laughed, cried and everything in between whilst reading, and soaking in the wisdom, observations, and raw honesty held within pages of this book. We delve into what inspired the book, Persephone's Story, working with a Goddess, 'The Experiment' & 'Cauldron Month'. Molly's approach to ritual and finding magic in the everyday is down to earth, practical and attainable for everyone. Stay tuned to found out Molly's Divine Tool of The Week!

In this week's episode we share an email from one of our lovely listeners. If there are any curious Christian witches out there, this one is for you! If you have felt torn between the Christian faith & the Craft, that you have to pick a 'side' - BK has so beautifully shared how he has blended the two and created a faith that resonates for him deeply... We then move on to a little segment we like to call "F*cked up Fairytales" - basically we tell you the real versions of the Disney classics!

We touched on pointy witches hats very briefly in the Halloween 'Black Cats & Pumpkins' episode in 2021, and it got me thinking about where this imagery comes from... I also had a lovely listener get in touch asking us to go into the meaning behind the witches broom - otherwise known as a Besom. So I thought I would put together an episode to look into the history and meaning behind the things that are perceived as 'witchy' - and most importantly why?! So grab a cup of witch's brew & join us for a wee history lesson, in this ep we chat about the main symbols associated with the word 'Witch', the witches hat, pointy shoes, cape, broomstick & cauldrons.

This week we have the incredible wisdom & insight of Jane Hardwicke Collings. This incredible woman is self described as a postmenopausal grandmother at the sunset of her life.

She travels teaching workshops on the wisdom of cycles, the spiritual practice of menstruation; preparation for menstruation for mothers and daughters; and the sacred shamanic dimensions of pregnancy, birth, mothering and menopause; and how to reclaim and heal our rites of passage. She created the School of Shamanic Womancraft (formerly the School of Shamanic Midwifery) in 2009, and her mission is to reclaim feminine knowledge, wisdom and power through reconnection with the Women's Mysteries. Join us as we delve into the power of rites of passage, the Harvest Queen time of our lives, and what it truly means to embody the Crone.

Our next guest on Turns Out She's a Witch is a rockstar Goddess, author of 14 best selling books on modern Witchcraft, a Pilot, a professional fire dancer, a world record holding skydiver, a freediver who can dive to 33 meters on just one a single breath - and she's a Witch! Fiona Horne, the lead singer and guitarist of 'Def FX', and now of the band Seawitch & the acoustic duo 'Spiff & Fifi' In February this year Fiona released a revised edition of her book TEEN MAGICK: WITCHCRAFT FOR A NEW GENERATION, and once again through her music, writing & presence is inspiring people of all ages and backgrounds to be confident and free to express themselves. Fiona is an international leading expert on Modern Witchcraft and Wicca, dispelling negative stereotypes and myths, educating the mainstream public about what is now acknowledged as a world religion and respected spiritual path - and we are so excited to welcome her to our podcast to answer some of your burning questions... What is a 'real' witch? A Rainbow Witch? The Four Magical Principals? What is being in a coven like? Part1 of this interview ends with Seawitch track 'Initiate'. Every Seawitch song is a spell or a ritual... Special Note about Part One- Shannon and Tracey sit down for a honest, raw and emotive chat about how Fiona has navigated the very recent trauma of loosing part of her finger, and injuring others during a recent dog attack. We almost didn't include this, as it was not actually part of the interview or purpose of the podcast. But, as you will see, the way Fiona has navigated this experience is truly a testament of someone who's wisdom, insight and ability to embrace and learn from all that life has to offer can inspire others to do the same.

The start of August marks the Pagan Turning of the Wheel to Imbolc. As the days are again getting longer, now is a time for cleansing, clearing, releasing and allowing fresh new light and life to ignite.
