In this episode, we trace the salt-streaked threads of Magic Lessons to explore how the sea becomes more than backdrop—it’s inheritance. Through the story of Samuel Dias, a gifted navigator mistaken for a sorcerer, and his father Abraham, whose tales ripple with memory and myth, we examine the ocean as a place of both science and spellcraft.

But we don’t stop there—we also dive deep into Fletcher Bassett’s Legends and Superstitions of the Sea and of Sailors, pulling lore from across the centuries: shipwreck omens, unlucky cargo, tattoo talismans, weather witches, and the spectral warnings whispered in old sea shanties.

Whether you’ve ever longed for the horizon or just love a good storm story, this episode is for those who know the sea doesn’t forget—and neither do we.

In this elemental deep dive, we explore the presence of water across the Practical Magic universe—from the 1998 film to Alice Hoffman’s novels. Water in these stories isn’t just atmosphere—it’s memory, magic, grief, and return. It appears in every threshold moment: when love begins, when loss takes hold, when curses are born, and when healing finally comes.

We follow its current through rain-soaked roads and storm-drenched gardens, through birth on the sand and offerings cast into the sea. From the windswept cliffs of Maria’s Island to the quiet harbors where new lives begin, water reveals itself as the most honest element—mirroring longing, cleansing what’s buried, and always, always remembering.

Also, Justina shares a recent water-drenched traumatic experience that will have you on the edge of your seat!

In this enchanting episode, we take a deep dive into the delicate yet powerful world of Gypsophila, more commonly known as Baby’s Breath. Often dismissed as a mere “filler flower,” we uncover its potent symbolism in magic, folklore, and its subtle but meaningful appearance in the film Practical Magic — particularly during the Solstice scene with Aunt Jet and Aunt Frances.

From the language of flowers to the lingering breath of ancestors, we explore how this seemingly fragile bloom represents innocence, protection, and eternal love — and why the Owens women may have chosen it so deliberately.

We'll explore the different variations (there are many!), and also wander into the shadowy realm of sleep demons from various cultural traditions, known for stealing breath in the night. To keep little ones safe from such spirits, we share a gentle children’s bedtime protection spell featuring Baby’s Breath and moonlit incantations.

And somewhere between jazz and spellcraft, we uncover a curious pop culture thread intertwining a modern band with a legendary guitarist mentioned in The Rules of Magic, that might just have you believing in fate.

Join us, as we reflect on the paradox of Baby’s Breath — so small and fragile, yet timeless — allowing us to honor the element of air and the unseen magic carried on the wind!

Every Midsummer’s Eve, a sparrow flies into the Owens house and circles three times before being ushered back out—an omen, a tradition, and a mystery woven through all four books in the Practical Magic series.

In this enchanting episode, we unravel the deeper meaning of the sparrow: as a messenger of liminal spaces, a symbol of the Threefold Law, and a harbinger of magical thresholds. We explore how this unassuming bird flits through myth, literature, and folklore—embodying everything from divine justice to poetic rebellion.

We also dive into:

• The Wiccan Threefold Law and its connection to karmic return

• The literary "rule of three" and its mythic echoes

• Dream symbolism and the spiritual power of small things

• Cultural and mythological sparrow lore across the globe

• Why the "in-between times"—like Midsummer—are so ripe with magic

Join us as we chase the sparrow through story, spell, and symbolism… and discover what messages it might be bringing you this Midsummer.

Strike a match and circle the salt—this episode is ablaze with the power of Fire in Practical Magic. From Gillian’s wildfire spirit to Sally’s quiet, smoldering strength, we explore how the element of fire burns through the Owens family legacy—both literally and metaphorically.

We trace the flames of transformation across Alice Hoffman’s novels and the 1998 film: from love spells gone too far, to the danger that rises with Jimmy Angelov’s resurrection, to the flickering candles and hearth fires that ground the Owens women in warmth, magic, and memory. This isn’t just about spark and smoke. This is fire as lineage, as ritual, as protection—and as a dangerous force when untended.

We also dive into fire scrying, candle magic, cleansing flames, phoenix mythology, hearth goddesses like Hestia, and the symbolic fire that fuels the heart. Whether it warms or devours, fire in Practical Magic reminds us that passion and power must be held with care—or risk burning everything down.

In today’s very special episode, we—The Stinas—are celebrating not only the album’s release but the incredible three-year journey that brought us here. We’re diving into the archives—text messages, fan fictions, studio memories, and behind-the-scenes magic—that tell the story of how two internet strangers became kindred creative spirits (and gave Lennon & McCartney a run for their money 😉).

💫 We'll be spilling the lavender tea on everything:
— How we chose the name of the album— The meaning behind the album art— How & why we chose these 5 songs for Volume 1
And yes—today’s the day we premiere the full EP for the very first time!

Of course, we couldn’t let this milestone pass without a few heartfelt thank-yous. We’re sending all our love and deepest gratitude to our Crowdfunding Campaign supporters, the dream team at Plaid Dog Studios, and you, our beloved listeners.

This one’s a little bittersweet… but mostly, it’s full of magick!
Thank you for believing in us and for bringing this album to life. 🌼💛

Justina & Kristina

xoxo
