Witchcraft Off the Beaten Path

You know when you;ve been unable to do any work on your path, for whatever reasons, and you start to feel like you're maybe not actually a witch anymore,... and you can't help but be surrounded by witches doing their craft all over the place? Posting videos of spell casting, jinx throwing, their altars, their rituals? You can't get away from it, and it just serves as a "brain weasel", telling you you're not a good enough witch... I...

So, what happens when SJ Tucker calls and says "I'm gonna be traveling through Amarillo in a couple of months... would you mind if I stayed with you while I'm there on my way to a gig in Arizona?" ? 

You plan a parking lot concert at Aunt Eek's Books & Curiosities. And a podcast episode from the sofa of your living room. And of course, it's no ordinary episode. It's Witches in Jammies with Snacks. (Digressing)

This is the raw audio. It is unedited! It's like when sitcoms from the 90s would do a live recording... anything can happen! Not much happened, but I sniffled a few times, my dog had a loud, and I burped once.

So when you put a couple of Aries broads on a Zoom call with microphones, shit goes down. This was such a fun interview. Natalie and I talked about the MANY tarot and oracle decks she has created and is still creating - namely the Tarot Mood deck. It's my new favorite deck and we'll tell you why in this episode. Be warned - tons of fuckwords in this episode! More than usual.

My friend Amy agreed to eat some snacks with me while in our jammies! We chatted about Gatekeeping in witchcraft, she had an epiphany that she shared with me. We also talked about some delicious cheese, Black Phoenix Alchemy Labs perfumes, and Sucreabeille Perfumes and Incences; There was talk about Amy's FICTION writing (YES! SHE IS WRITING FICTION) as well as her 6th and 7th published tomes. We talked about witchcraft in movies, ...

I *finally* got to talk to Australian witch, psychic reader, and founder of SpellBox, a popular metaphysical store in Melbourne, Australia, and author of the new book "Becoming the Witch; The Art of Magick". We had a great talk about not only her book, but using imagination in witchcraft, the differences between Southern Hemisphere and Northern Hemisphere witchcraft and paganism, and she gave a beautiful reading of a lovely ritual ...

This week, we're taking a look at this last year in Witchcraft Off the Beaten Path, a few of the people I had the honor and pleasure of speaking with and learning from, and some of the truly crazy shit that happened in 2021. What a long, strange trip it's been. Here's to a prosperous 2022! I want to hear from you this year, and learn what YOU want to hear about! Email me at podcast.mollydyer@gmail.com or leave me a message on the F...

I've always been so envious of the freedom my completely-out-of-the-broom-closet witch friends seem to enjoy. And while I know the grass is always greener on the other side, I know there are pitfalls and pratfalls for those witches who get to live out and proud, just as there are for those of us witches who have at least one foot in the broom closet. How valid are witches who have to practice from behind the broom closet door? ...

Halloween was on October 31st, but Samhain - Astrologically - isn't until November 6th at 10:50pm Central US time this year. It's a Cross-quarter day (between the equinoxes and solstices) so it happens when the sun is in 15º Scorpio. It's coming! Here are a few things you can do to celebrate astrological Samhain including Ancestor Altars to venerate your ancestors, baking Soul Cakes, and scrying when the veil is its absolute thinne...
