What do you wish I asked this guest? What was your "quotable moment" from this episode?

Welcome to season 6!

I sit down with Rachel of Desert Roots Apothecary to talk about authentic witchcraft, tarot that actually lands, and how small, honest rituals fit inside busy lives. We swap stories about bathroom kindness, nerd dinners, and craft a simple spell to reboot New Year resolutions.

• what “witch” means beyond labels and dogma
• solo practice with tarot, moon magic, and crystals
• moving from cluttered spells to intention and ease
• ancestral nudges and the joy of accurate reads
• normalising witchcraft in everyday spaces
• women supporting women in bathrooms
• favorite tools, decks, and practical routines
• markets, Pride events, and where to find the shop
• a resolution refresh spell with creosote, chicory, and tiger’s eye

What do you wish I asked this guest? What was your "quotable moment" from this episode?

We sit down with author and teacher Sara Mastros to explore the difference between magic and witchcraft, why the word "witch" carries class and power, and how collaboration builds real results. From Solomonic roots to muse rituals and a legendary snow spell, we share tools, stories, and practical ways to learn without losing the spark.

• choosing witch as class solidarity and stance
• magic as technique, witchcraft as ignition
• building shared vocabulary across traditions
• co‑magicians as the best beginner strategy
• Polya problem solving applied to spells
• daily practices: meditation and muse invocations
• publishing realities and digital tarot work
• initiation, risk, and sustaining witch fire
• grief, kindness, and community resilience
• book, courses, and upcoming events

Introduction to Witchcraft, 13 Lessons in the Practice of Magic, is Sara's new book. Find this and more at witchlessons.com!

What do you wish I asked this guest? What was your "quotable moment" from this episode?

We sit down with tarot reader and witch Kelli Dunaway to talk about reclaiming the word witch, building accessible practice, and how daily rituals anchor a life of service and self-respect. The conversation ranges from lunar alignment to politics, tarot boundaries, and a story on disability that redefines dignity and power.

• reclaiming witch as a word of power and history
• daily routines with morning pages, tarot, moon phases
• when to work alone versus in group ritual
• tarot as mirror, decks, spreads, and boundaries
• accessibility and welcoming new witches into practice
• politics, spiritual democracy, and phoenix metaphors
• music, silence, and energy work with Jupiter
• Isis, the High Priestess, and the higher self Raven
• building local witch community and referrals
• a story reframing disability, shame, and worth
