From the witch trials to modern media, witches have long been both vilified and romanticized, shaped by religious fear, cultural misconceptions, and the enduring association between witchcraft and the devil. Join two modern-day witches as we share what our practices actually look like, why we love being witches, and what lies beyond the glamour and stereotypes of popular culture. We'll explore the deeper connections between witchcraft, nature, and the world around us...and what it means to walk this path in the modern day.

A popular herb amongst witches, long used for banishing and cleansing with smoke, or divination and clairvoyancy through dreaming. Her connection to the moon is what connects us all to her medicine and magic! Join us as we dicuss the lore, history, etemology, medicine and magic of Mugwort!

Humans have used smoke for centuries to cleanse and purify spaces, ward off illness, banish unwanted influences, and sanctify the places we inhabit. It has been used to venerate and honor the dead, mark sacred spaces and rituals, and cleanse a space, person, or object.

Join us as we step into the cloud of smoke and explore its history, ritual uses, practical applications, and the important conversation surrounding cultural appropriation. So dim the lights and ignite your incense as we talk about sacred herbal smoke!
