  • Reclaiming Magick – Divination, Art, and the Courage to Go Slowly

    Reclaiming Magick – Divination, Art, and the Courage to Go Slowly
    2025/12/19
    Today I'm joined by Catherine for a chat about rediscovering magick, trusting intuition, and allowing creativity to unfold without pressure. I hope you enjoy it!In this episode we explore:1. Reclaiming magick later in lifeCatherine shares her experience of returning to magick after years away. Once deeply connected as a child, she describes how religion and relationships pulled her off that path, and how she now feels a clear calling to reclaim her inherent magick. Not as something new, but as something remembered. 2. “Everybody is inherently magickal”Rebecca reframes the idea of being a “newbie witch,” emphasising that magick is not earned or bestowed but reclaimed. This conversation gently dismantles the idea that witchcraft requires lineage, expertise, or perfection, and instead centres embodiment, relationship, and presence. 3. Divination as humanity’s oldest language of meaningTogether they trace divination far beyond tarot and oracle cards, exploring how humans have always sought meaning. From birds, bones, smoke, stars, and entrails, to modern medicine and prediction-based science, divination is revealed as our instinctive way of making sense of uncertainty. 4. Trusting the body after a lifetime of being taught not toThe conversation turns to how many of us were taught, as children, to override hunger, tiredness, discomfort, and intuition. Divination and ritual become ways of gently relearning self-trust and restoring a relationship with the body’s wisdom. 5. Ritual and relationship From cleansing cards to asking permission before taking a deer bone, Catherine and Rebecca speak about reverence rather than rules. Cards, crystals, bones, and objects are framed not as tools to control outcomes, but as allies we build relationships with over time. 6. Slowness as a magickal actCatherine reflects on learning to go slowly in this phase of her life. Gathering objects, thrifting intuitively, nesting into her practice, and allowing curiosity to lead rather than goals. Rebecca affirms that magick has no end point, no checklist, and no finish line. 7. Art as spellwork and becomingArt emerges as a central theme. Catherine shares how returning to painting after decades away has become part of her magickal rediscovery. Painting over old work, starting again, and allowing the process to lead mirrors her wider journey of becoming. Rebecca reflects on art as knowledge created through making, not output. 8. Noticing as everyday magickFrom winter roses and unexpected tomatoes in December, to robins, daffodils, chalk pits, ancient skull sites, and dandelions breaking through concrete, this episode celebrates noticing as one of the most powerful magickal practices we have. 9. Kindness, boundaries, and transmuting angerThe conversation closes with reflections on love, justice, protest magick, and discernment. Witchcraft is named as a path that does not deny anger or grief, but gives us ways to transmute them into action, boundaries, care, and change. This episode is for you if you:feel called back to magick after time awayare learning to trust themselves againfeel overwhelmed by noise, content, and certainty cultureare rediscovering creativity again in your lifewant magick without pressure, hierarchy, or performancebelieve slowness, noticing, and kindness are radical actsJoin us for a conversation that invites you to exhale, to soften, and to remember that you do not need to know where you're going to walk a magickal path.-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --All of the Magick:The A Pinch of Magick App:IPhone - download on the App StoreAndroid - download pn the Google PlayOur (free) magickal Community: Facebook GroupMagickal JournalsExplore on Amazon Rebecca's Author PageWebsiteRebeccaAnuwen.comMagickalHabits.comInstagramFor Magick: Click hereFor a Sacred Pause in Nature: Click hereFor CharmCasting: Click hereFor Merlin, my Dog: Click here

  • Living Magick in the Real World: Intuition, Deconstruction, and the Courage to Come Home to Yourself

    Living Magick in the Real World: Intuition, Deconstruction, and the Courage to Come Home to Yourself
    2025/12/08
    PLEASE NOTE: Suicide is mentioned in this episode, as well as Cynthia's work as an advocate for female survivors of abuse.In today's conversation, I'm delighted to welcome Cynthia for the very first of our new community-centred episodes. Instead of traditional, more formal interviews, these gatherings invite you to sit with us as friends would, following curiosity, truth, and a little everyday enchantment wherever it wants to flow.I've never spoken one-to-one with Cynthia before, and what unfolded was a deeply honest exploration of intuition, leaving religion, finding your own path, and reclaiming magick as a way of being in the world.This episode is a tapestry of personal story, insight, humour, and the kind of grounded witchcraft that makes the mundane shimmer.In this episode, we explore:1. Cynthia’s powerful journey from evangelical Christianity to witchcraftRaised in a religious environment, Cynthia shares how early doubts, motherhood, and profound family experiences began to untangle her from doctrine and move her toward a more authentic spiritual life. Her father’s passing opened a deep reckoning about meaning, purpose, and the life she did not want to live.2. The moment she realised: “I think I might be a witch”From the heart-pounding purchase of her first witchcraft book to recognising lifelong intuitive experiences, Cynthia describes the extraordinary relief of naming what had always been quietly true.3. Intuition as a knowing beyond sightWe explore the nature of intuition, not as voices or visions but as a bone-deep knowing that often speaks before logic catches up. We share personal stories of “turn left instead” moments that proved profoundly important later.I also share how becoming a person of your word strengthens intuition and why not everything needs to be “proved” in order to be honoured.4. Religion, trauma, and the fear of a masculine godCynthia speaks openly about the harm created by the religious masculinity she was raised with and the difficulty of allowing masculine energy in again. We explore a re-framing of masculine and feminine energies as archetypal and relational rather than gendered, hierarchical, or punitive.5. Magick as relationship, not ritualI share stories from my childhood in Cornwall, early magickal encounters, and how nature has always spoken to me. I also describe my priestess training, misconceptions around deities, and why I see gods and goddesses not as authorities but as beings in relationship and reciprocity.6. The importance of community and ritual in a post-religious worldTogether, we explore what is lost when people leave religion: not the dogma, but the communal rhythm, the shared practices, and the rituals that hold us during life’s thresholds. We talk about how magick can restore this sense of grounding through conscious pauses, seasonal rituals, and connection to the land.7. Everyday magick in actionFrom enchanted stones to unexpected conversations at the front door of a courthouse, Cynthia shows how magick moves through the seemingly ordinary moments of life, opening paths of service, compassion, and courage.8. Saying no, wintering, and reclaiming your own paceWe close with a reminder that witchcraft honours cycles. Sometimes magick asks us to act, sometimes to rest. Unlike religious systems rooted in constant servitude, witchcraft grants permission to protect your energy and honour your own seasons.Why this episode mattersThis conversation is a lantern for anyone who is:deconstructing old beliefsexperiencing intuitive awakeningscraving community without dogmawanting a magick that is lived, not performedrebuilding trust in themselvesseeking an approach to spirituality grounded in the land, the body, and everyday lifeIt's vulnerable, warm, wise, and deeply human. The kind of conversation that used to happen around kitchen tables or late at night with friends who “get it.”Join the conversationIf you’d like to come on the show and share your own story or ask me your questions in real time, send a message on Instagram or drop me an email. These episodes are meant to feel like friends gathered around a hearth fire, sharing life, magick, and the courage to walk their own path.-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --All of the Magick:The A Pinch of Magick App:IPhone - download on the App StoreAndroid - download pn the Google PlayOur (free) magickal Community: Facebook GroupMagickal JournalsExplore on Amazon Rebecca's Author PageWebsiteRebeccaAnuwen.comMagickalHabits.comInstagramFor Magick: Click hereFor a Sacred Pause in Nature: Click hereFor CharmCasting: Click hereFor Merlin, my Dog: Click here

  • POWER Up Your Magickal Self

    POWER Up Your Magickal Self
    2025/10/06

    What if your magickal power was never something to find, but something to remember?


    In this episode, we explore how to POWER up your magickal self, not through striving or control, but through presence, self-trust, and ritual.


    We'll explore the five energies of the P.O.W.E.R. framework: Presence, Owning, Wellbeing, Embodiment, and Ritual to help you reconnect with your magick in the middle of your everyday life.


    You’ll learn how to turn ordinary moments into sacred acts, reclaim your energy from what drains you, and embody your truth with quiet confidence.

    This isn’t about doing more.

    It’s about being more you.

    More rooted. More intentional. More magickal.


    I also share details of The Magickal Self, a 30-day ritual of reclamation, power, and becoming, and a special invitation to join the Samhain 30-Day Journey, an exclusive seasonal cycle for those ready to release, renew, and rise with the turning of the Wheel.


    In This Episode:
    • The deeper meaning of “power” in magickal practice
    • How to integrate the five energies of P.O.W.E.R. into daily life
    • Simple ways to make everyday actions sacred
    • A short closing ritual to reclaim your energy and embody your magick

  • The Magick of Beginnings (and Pauses)

    The Magick of Beginnings (and Pauses)
    2025/09/28

    After three months of silence, the longest break in this podcast’s history, I’m back. But this pause wasn’t empty. It was a season of composting, of finishing my MA, and of stepping into the threshold of my PhD.


    In this episode, I share:


    ✨ Why pauses are not failures, but fertile ground for renewal

    ✨ What completing my MA has taught me about cycles of ending and beginning

    ✨ How the threshold of my PhD is reshaping what’s ahead for A Pinch of Magick

    ✨ The symbolic power of autumn’s descent and why release is radical magick

    ✨ The importance of honouring your own transitions


    This episode is both a re-introduction and a reminder: magick isn’t linear. It’s cyclical. Just like the seasons, our lives are woven with growth, fallow times, endings, and new beginnings.

    Whether you’re moving through a big life change, resting in a pause, or just craving more connection to the cycles of magick in your own life, this is your invitation to see thresholds not as interruptions, but as powerful portals.

  • The Spiral Path: Desire, Detours, and Deep Manifestation

    The Spiral Path: Desire, Detours, and Deep Manifestation
    2025/06/16

    Ever felt like you’re going in circles with your manifestations?

    That you're doing everything right, the spells, the vision board, the mindset shifts, but nothing’s landing?

    This episode is your deep exhale.


    In Episode 5 of our manifestation series, we reframe so-called "delay" and "failure" as sacred signs that you’re on the true path of soul-aligned manifestation.

    Not a straight line. A spiral.


    In this episode, we explore:
    • Why manifestation unfolds in cycles, not checklists
    • How to tell if you’re manifesting someone else’s dream
    • Why wanting more isn’t selfish, it’s sacred
    • Nature’s seasons as manifestation guides
    • And how to reclaim your true desires without guilt, shame, or needing permission

    You’ll leave this episode with a new lens for understanding your progress, not as failure or stagnation, but as ritual evolution.


    Reflection:

    Reflect on where you are in your current cycle. What are you returning to, and what’s deepening?


    This Episode is Perfect for You If:
    • You’re feeling stuck, lost, or tired of pushing
    • You’ve been manifesting something for ages, and it still hasn’t shown up
    • You’re questioning whether your dream is really yours
    • You’re craving a softer, wiser rhythm for your spiritual path


    Listen now and let the spiral set you free.


    And don’t forget to subscribe, because in Episode 6: Manifestation in Rhythm, we’ll explore the Wheel of the Year, lunar magick, and how to align your manifestations with nature’s cycles for long-term, soulful transformation.
