Get your prosperity on with Rachel Patterson! Rachel is an English Witch who has been walking the Pagan path for over thirty years. She has had over 30 books published so far, some of them becoming best sellers. Her newest book release is: “Prosperity Magic – Spell Working for Abundance, Money, and Prosperity” by Moon Books. She is the host of the Pagan Portal Podcast, Elder at the Kitchen Witch Online School of Witchcraft and High Priestess of the Kitchen Witch Coven. She is a regular columnist with Fate & Fortune magazine and Pagan Dawn. Rachel is an Editor and Publicist at Moon Books.

We chat about Rachel’s early beginnings and how her father always took her to sacred places when she was young like Stonehenge. She was drawn to magical stories and books especially about the Arthurian mysteries, witches and dragons. When she was in her early 20’s Rachel bought a book at a thrift store about the history of English Witchcraft and it really resonated with who she was and that was the beginning of her Witchcraft journey. After 35 plus more years; Rachel says she is still learning.

Rachel started out reviewing books for Moon Books but then eventually started writing books about Kitchen Witchery in 2012 and now 33 books later Rachel just published her newest release: “Prosperity Magic – Spell Working for Abundance, Money, and Prosperity” by Moon Books. Rachel is a regular columnist with Fate & Fortune magazine in England called “The Witch that Gets You Rich” for 6 years. She thought it would be a good idea to pull all of those articles into a book since they are all about Money/Prosperity magic. This book includes hands- on practical spells that you can use to make your life more prosperous. Abundance comes in many forms, not just money. You can call in love, friends, support, good health, success..anything. There are even spells for cleaning out debt too which is the starting point for allowing the good prosperity to come in.

We jump into the many types of spellwork in Rachel’s book including: candle magic, spell pouches, knot work, color magic, fashion/clothing color, spell jars etc. Any of these spell items can be charged for magic . Rachel’s go to is Candle magic because it brings in color magic and flame which is about transformation.The bottom line is that it has to resonate with you! It is very important to give offerings and having gratitude in money magic spell work. There are checks and balances in any magic. You can't keep asking deity or the divine to keep showering you with money over and over without giving back!

We chat about how adding layers to a prosperity spell can boost the magic Lunar phases and certain days of the week can energetically enhance our prosperity and money spells. If you want to work with the Sun’s energy then you can do your spell in the morning or if you are releasing debts you could do this at sunset. Adding herbs like chili powder or mustard can boost the energy of the spell to make it work faster. Don’t forget to add a timeline with the wording and intent too. We end the show with Rachel offering us some great wealth and abundance tips. Tune into this bewitching conversation and be enlightened! Visit Rachel at: www.rachelpatterson.co.uk

Explore Lunar Magic with Jen Sankey! Jen is an author, deck creator, tarot reader, professional witch, and speaker. She blends tarot, lunar magic, and spiritual guidance to create transformative tools. Her works include the award-winning Stardust Wanderer Tarot (Self-Published), Enchanted Forest Felines Tarot (Llewellyn), Manifesting with the Moon: A Lunar Guide to Magic (Llewellyn), Feb 2026, and Goblin Whispers Tarot (2027, Llewellyn). Jen shares her knowledge through workshops, events, and online platforms, inspiring others to enhance their intuition and magical potential.

Jen spent alot of time alone as a kid wandering in the woods making potions in nature. She liked watching fantasy movies with fairies and witches when she was young. She bought her first tarot deck when she was 12 She went to the library and found a few Wiccan books and read those and resonated with her. Her family moved around several times and she grew up poor. She went to different churches for free food/meals and got a good overview of the different denominations of religions which she later appreciated. It taught her resiliency and independence. She graduated from hi school early at 16 and went right into nursing school.

As a nurse, healer and helper this is what many Witches and Pagans have done for centuries and do. You're here to help people as a Tarot reader too. Coming of age pre-internet gives us a different perspective and makes us more self disciplined in figuring out and learning about how to be a witch and a tarot card reader too. She started journaling and taking notes with the moon phases and researching and became intrigued with Lunar Magic. Jen said she was never in a wiccan coven but more of a solitary witch. She was a young mother at 17 and has 4 boys. Later when they were older she got more involved with some wiccan/pagan online groups and teaching.
We chat about Jen’s new book Manifesting with The Moon and how she wanted to teach people how to harness the energy and power of the moon phases and tie it in with manifesting. As Witches, alot of spellwork is about bringing in to our lives. If we want to banish or release that is part of manifesting to clear the way for something good or betterment in our lives. Jen wanted to write an uncomplicated work book so people can harness the moon phases and to get them to trust their intuition. And use her book like a lunar map to bring in what you want in your life.

We delve into how Jen helps to reframe our thinking to incorporate the mind, the body and the spirit self to manifest with each lunar phase/ with tarot spreads ,magical exercises, spells, meditations, lunar teas and sigils that the reader can explore through sections and a format that is easy to follow for each of the moon phases and for mind, body and spirit. With any magical practice that we do gratitude and an appreciation for what we have is so important. Even if its the simple small things.

We jump ito different lunar phases and Jen describes the energy of each phase and what energies we can align our spellwork to starting with the New Moon phase. We co-create with the moon’s phases energies and so there is effort on our part as well. As we work with our intentions through each od the lunar phases and working towards our manifesting we might change our minds and discover new ideas
