Not Every Witch

Not Every Witch

Welcome to 'Not Every Witch,' the solo show where I, Michael Blackthorn, dive into the magical intersection of witchcraft, astrology, tarot, and herbalism—served with a twist that keeps things anything but ordinary. Each week, we’re shaking (or should I say stirring) up the cauldron with practical spells, tarot insights, rituals, and tips to help you blend witchcraft with your everyday life. Whether you’re balancing a busy career or spending your nights under the moon, this podcast is for witches who know that not every path looks the same—and that’s where the real magic lies. With a passion for the craft and a knack for keeping it real, I’m here to break the rules, challenge the norms, and offer you a fresh perspective on how to make your magic truly your own. So, if you’re ready to embrace your inner witch and stir things up, tune in every Wednesday. Because 'Not Every Witch' plays by the rules—and neither do I.
