The White Witch Podcast

Ivy, Winter Witchcraft & The Discipline Spell In this month's November Witchcraft episode, we wander into the winding, enchanted world of ivy — a plant steeped in folklore, protection magic, and ancient symbolism. We explore its historical associations, its role as a guardian of thresholds and the many ways witches can weave ivy into their craft with intention and safety. From there, we move into the heart of herbal magic, looking at how to use herb blends in spellwork, ritual, energy cleansing, and winter-focused practices. Next we descend into the witch's winter arc, exploring why the darker months naturally call us into commitment, devotion and inner alchemy. We discuss the role of discipline as a spell, and how neuroplasticity supports your magical practice. We take a closer look at the anterior mid-cingulate cortex — a brain region connected to motivation, persistence, emotional regulation and the ability to choose discomfort for long-term transformation — revealing how science supports what witches have always known - Winter is for recalibration, rewiring, and rising. We finish the episode with a Ritual for Sacred Discipline, crafted to help you anchor devotion, strengthen your energetic sovereignty, and align your daily life with the witch you are becoming. In This Episode We Explore - Ivy in Witchcraft Ivy's folklore across Ireland, Britain, and classical mythology Its symbolism as a protector, a guardian of thresholds, and a guide to hidden realms Why ivy was associated with divine ecstasy, wildness, caves, doorways, and the Otherworld How to safely and respectfully use ivy in modern witchcraft Energetic workings you can pair with ivy (protection, binding, devotion, portal magic) Different ways of working With herb blends The Witch's Winter Arc Understanding winter as a magical recalibration season Why November–February is the perfect window for discipline, devotion, and deep inner change How nature's descent mirrors your own energetic turning within The connection between cyclical witchcraft and long-term goal alchemy Witchcraft, Neuroplasticity & Discipline How your brain rewires itself through repetition, intention and emotional charge Why scrolling, overstimulation and fatigue sabotage magical momentum The unexpected role of the anterior mid-cingulate cortex - motivation task persistence emotional self-regulation choosing discomfort to reach your desires How witches can harness this part of the brain like a magical muscle Reframing discipline as a frequency of self-love and energetic sovereignty Ritual for Sacred Discipline A grounding, witchy practice designed to help you - Declare what you are devoted to this winter Anchor your discipline as a magical frequency Activate the neural pathways that support consistency Align your daily actions with your future self Step into the winter arc with power, clarity, and inner fire If you are ready to weave plant lore with brain magic, and step into a winter of powerful self-alchemy, this episode is for you.

This month we turn our gaze upward toward the radiant realms of the Angels. Angels are not bound by religion. They are frequencies of divine intelligence — messengers of light, guardians of the heart, and allies in both healing and manifestation. Their presence reminds us that even in darkness, light is always near. Throughout November, we will be working with the Angelic Current — inviting clarity, protection and peace into our energy fields as we prepare for winter's stillness. Expect soft golds, feathers, candlelight and celestial calm as we weave witchcraft with higher guidance. This is a month of softening, listening, and remembering that you are always held in light. Let the angels speak through your intuition, your dreams, and your everyday magic. This month includes – A deep exploration of the Angelic Realm and how witches can work with angels outside of dogma Guided meditation to meet your Guardian Angel Magick and teachings on the seven Archangels Journal prompts to discover your guiding angel Angelic healing practices for aura cleansing and energy renewal A ritual for Angelic Manifestation and opening to miracles A tarot spread for divine guidance A soft celestial-inspired printable poster for your altar or journal By the end of November, you will have – A clear understanding of angelic energies and how to work with them as a witch A strengthened connection with your Guardian Angel Practices for angelic healing, protection and peace Tools for divine manifestation and intuitive guidance A deeper sense of being supported, guided and held as winter approaches Join me for November's journey – https://patreon.com/TheHedgeandHollow?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink WINGS OF LIGHT — ANGELIC COMMUNION & GUIDANCE Wednesday 26th November, 7pm GMT via Zoom As winter's quiet deepens, our November circle invites us to rise into the light. This gathering centres on angelic connection and higher guidance. Together we will step into the frequency of divine love, exploring how angels and luminous beings communicate through intuition, signs and energy. What to expect – Energy Cleansing and Light Activation — a guided journey to release the residue of the year and awaken your inner radiance, calling upon Michael for protection and Raphael for healing Channelled Journaling — messages of peace, purpose and hope from your angels or higher self Divination — a shared card pull to receive angelic insight for the season ahead Closing in Light — sealing your energy in protection and anchoring the peace of angelic presence within your aura Access through The Witches Who Run With The Wolves tier.

In our second Samhain Witch Week episode we return to Primrose Hill's cottage. Where the hearth glows golden against the gathering dark and the scent of spice, smoke and apple fills the air. Join us as Primrose prepares for The Witch's New Year— a time of endings, beginnings and sacred remembrance. Together we step into the stillness of the Dumb Supper, a silent meal shared with the spirits of our beloved dead — learning how to host your own and weave this timeless rite of communion into your Samhain celebrations. Alongside the supper we will explore a handful of hearth-born enchantments and recipes for the turning of the year - Hearth Protection Bread — to bless and seal your home for winter. Apple Spirit Blessing — a sweet ancestral charm of love and remembrance. Pumpkin Soup for Prosperity — golden nourishment for abundance and renewal. Ancestral Mulled Wine or Cider — a warming brew for spirit connection. Shadow Jar Spell — to release the old year and transform what lingers in the dark. This is The Enchanted Feast — a night of quiet magic, candlelight, and communion between worlds. So pour yourself something warm, settle by the fire and step with me into the witch's kitchen at Samhain, where love, memory and magic are stirred together in every dish. Blessed Samhain my loves. May your hearth be warm and your spirits near.

Fae, Ghosts, Ancestry & Old Cornish Magic  Hello Witches   Join me for episode one of Witch Week for Samhain.   On this episode I am joined by the wonderful Freyja, The Corn(ish) Witch, for a deeply magical conversation exploring the folklore, spirits, and ancestral traditions of Cornwall — where the veil between worlds seems to shimmer a little closer to the skin.  Together we wander through -   How Freyja will be celebrating Samhain and honouring her ancestors.  Her own ghost and fae encounters, and what they've taught her about the Otherworld.  The Cornish fae — from the Bucca to the Piskies — and their role in local lore.  The mysteries of Merlin, Tintagel and Cornwall's most powerful magical sites.  The Cornish Pellars, traditional cunning folk and healers of the region.  How ancestral trauma can echo through our DNA   The celebration of Allantide — Cornwall's own festival of apples, ancestors and soul fire.  Plus, a few lesser-known herbs to work with this Samhain season — rooted in Cornish tradition and spirit medicine.  This episode feels like walking through mist on the moors — old stories rising up from the land, whispering through time.   This one's for those who feel the call of the old paths — for witches who remember the song beneath the soil.  Find Freyja's podcast here -   https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-corn-ish-witch/id1845165473  Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thecornishwitchpodcast/  YouTube - https://youtu.be/5AFubPjnEqE?si=PjD77hDflZFUpvNC  Books referenced are Scuttlers Cove by David Barnett and The Cornish Witch by Elena Collins.     Hallowed Harvest Witch Box - https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/4382208970/hallowed-harvest-a-samhain-witch-box Hallowed Harvest Zine - https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/4382236667/hallowed-harvest-a-samhain-grimoire OCTOBER ON PATREON - WHISPERS AT THE VEIL As the nights lengthen and the veil thins, the voices of the ancestors stir — soft, haunting, and full of wisdom.

In this episode we explore one of the most beloved star myths in history — The Pleiades, the Seven Sisters who shimmer in the night sky and in stories told across the world. From their ancient Greek origins as the daughters of Atlas and Pleione, to the legends of the Kiowa, Aboriginal Yunggarmurra, and Hindu Krittika, we trace how cultures across time have seen these same seven stars and found within them tales of love, transformation, and divine light. You will hear how Zeus placed them in the heavens to protect them from Orion's pursuit, why one sister's light mysteriously fades, and how this same story appears in the oldest human memories — perhaps even from a time before our ancestors left Africa. We will also explore the deeper symbolism of the Pleiades within witchcraft and energy work — as a constellation of remembrance, ascension, and feminine radiance — and how to connect with their celestial current through meditation and ritual. We will look at - The myth of the Seven Sisters in Greek legend The global star stories of the Pleiades (Kiowa, Aboriginal, Hindu & more) Why these tales may be humanity's oldest shared myth The Pleiadian frequency and working with the Seven Sisters in modern witchcraft Our book review is Halloween Folklore and Ghost Stories by Brice Stratford Hallowed Harvest Witch Box - https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/4382208970/hallowed-harvest-a-samhain-witch-box Hallowed Harvest Zine - https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/4382236667/hallowed-harvest-a-samhain-grimoire OCTOBER ON PATREON - WHISPERS AT THE VEIL As the nights lengthen and the veil thins, the voices of the ancestors stir — soft, haunting, and full of wisdom.

Merlin – The Wild Prophet, The Magician of Britain In his episode we wander into the mists of ancient Britain to meet the many faces of Merlin – prophet, madman, shaman and wizard. We will look at how his myth weaves through Welsh, Scottish and Romano-British lore - Myrddin Wyllt — the Wild Man and Prophet of the Caledonian Forest. Lailoken — the mad seer who fled into the greenwood after killing kin in the fog of war. Merlin Ambrosius — the fusion of Celtic shaman and Roman sage, born from the pen of Geoffrey of Monmouth. The Merlin Current — the living energy of prophecy, wisdom, and the land's magic that still calls to modern witches today. We'll explore his connection to the Genius Loci and his enduring symbolism as a bridge between the wild and the civilised, nature and spirit, madness and enlightenment. This episode is for those who feel the whisper of the forest, the pull of prophecy, and the call of ancient magic in their bones. Mentioned in this episode: Myrddin Wyllt, Lailoken, and the triple death The Red and White Dragons of Dinas Emrys The Merlin Current and Mehindra, the guiding spirit of the lineage The symbolism of madness as initiation and the return as enlightenment Merlin's story mirrors the alchemical path we all walk — the death of the old self, the descent into the forest of shadow, and the return as seer, magician, and bridge between worlds. Through Merlin, we remember that madness can be medicine, and solitude can awaken the voice of spirit.

In this episode of The White Witch Podcast we journey into the mysteries of Memento Mori — the timeless reminder of mortality — and explore how death, transformation and rebirth weave through witchcraft and esoteric traditions. In this episode I share - The meaning and history of memento mori. The Haliorunna and necromantic wisdom of the witch's path. The story of Hiram Abif and the Masonic initiation of death and resurrection. How Alexandrian and Gardnerian covens use death-and-rebirth initiation rites. The echoes of these mysteries in Hermetic and Rosicrucian traditions. Norse philosophies of mortality and remembrance. Why burying the old self through ritual is essential for growth. Journal prompts, rituals and tarot/oracle spreads to work with the death/rebirth cycle in your own practice. This episode is both philosophical and practical — guiding you into the deep mysteries of why witches embrace death as a gateway to transformation, and how you can bring these initiatory currents into your own craft.

Witches have always known there is something otherworldly about mushrooms. They rise overnight, glowing in the damp dark, growing in rings that open into portals. They are death and rebirth embodied — feeding on decay to bring new life. In this episode we step into the mushroom circle together… We wander into the fairy folklore of toadstools and fae-rings. We explore the mysteries of Amanita Muscaria, the red-capped witch's mushroom. We uncover how the Maya, Aztecs and Egyptians revered mushrooms in their magick and rites. We dive into how witches used them in flying ointments and how Druids worked with their mysteries. We trace their hidden links to alchemy and transformation. We explore their magickal properties and the unique powers of different mushroom types. And I share how to work with mushrooms in your own craft, including a recipe for a Death & Rebirth Anointing Oil infused with mushroom spirit. This is a journey into the strange, the sacred, and the liminal. Listen now and step into the mushroom's circle of magick… if you dare. Our book review is Salems Lot by Stephen King. Lots of witchy love Carly xx

Hello Witches In this episode I'm joined by the wonderful Laura May of The Ritual Kitchen. Together we step into the world of kitchen witchery, where magic is stirred into the everyday and ritual lives in the heart of the home. Laura shares her journey into kitchen witchery and the story of how she came to her craft, weaving together folklore, ritual, and seasonal wisdom. We talk about: ✨ Her beautiful set-up working from a narrowboat and how this shapes her practice ✨ The art of foraging and connecting to the land through food and herbs ✨ Kitchen rituals that ground, protect, and enchant daily life ✨ The magical staples she always keeps in her kitchen witch's cupboard ✨ The role of folklore, story, and seasonal living in her work and offerings Whether you're a seasoned witch or simply curious about bringing more magic into your home, this conversation will inspire you to see your kitchen as an altar, a cauldron, and a place of transformation.

September Witchcraft - Harvest Moon, Mabon, Heather & The White Hare In this episode, I'm stepping into the autumn magic of September — a time of gathering, gratitude and transition. We begin with the Harvest Full Moon, exploring its folklore and how you can weave its abundant energy into your craft. I dive into the lore of Heather — a plant long tied to luck, protection, and threshold spaces — and share its magical properties for spellwork and ritual. We celebrate Mabon, the autumn equinox, a sabbat of balance, harvest, and honouring the turning of the wheel. To close I read the folk tale of The White Hare — a story from Dorset legend filled with mystery and enchantment. Plus, I review The Cornish Witch by Elena Collins — a time-slip novel brimming with spirits, Cornwall's landscape and the whisper of magic. Whether you're preparing your altar for Mabon, gathering herbs beneath the Harvest Moon, or simply soaking in September's shifting energy, this episode will guide you deeper into the magic of the season. Harvest Moon Tarot/Oracle Spread (5 cards — can be done with tarot, oracle, or a mix)  The Harvest — What have I gathered this season? → What blessings, lessons, or abundance is ripe and ready to acknowledge.  The Gratitude — What deserves my thanks right now? → Where to pour appreciation to strengthen roots.  The Balance — What is seeking harmony within me? → What needs to be brought into balance at this turning point of light and dark.  The Release — What must I let go of before winter? → Habits, fears, or weights that cannot come with you into the darker half of the year.  The Illumination — What guidance does the Harvest Moon shine upon my path? → The wisdom or vision that lights the way ahead.  Harvest Moon Journal Prompts  What am I most proud of harvesting this year — in work, spirit, relationships, or self?  Where in my life am I being called to pause and give gratitude?  What feels “out of balance” in me right now, and how might I restore harmony?  What am I ready to lay down, release, or compost before the dark months?  If the Harvest Moon could whisper one message to me, what would it be?  What seeds of intention do I want to carry safely through the winter, to blossom when light returns? 

In this episode, we return to the crooked hut on chicken legs and the mysteries of Baba Yaga — one of the most iconic and complex witches of folklore. Years ago, I shared an episode exploring her myth and magic, and since then new works and perspectives have emerged that call for a fresh look. We will delve into - The deeper layers of Baba Yaga's lore and symbolism How witches today can work with her as guide, teacher, and initiator New perspectives and different takes that expand on the old stories A review of The Book of Witchcraft by Semra Haksever - YouTube video referenced in the book review - https://youtu.be/M3ao8JQ5PJs?si=vzZPlAV8ijyUmlK_ Baba Yaga is both fearsome and wise, destructive and protective — a liminal figure who challenges us to face the truths we'd rather avoid.

In this hauntingly delicious episode, we descend into the blood-soaked, Southern gothic world of the film Sinners—a vampire story laced with folklore, crossroads magic, and protective witchcraft. From Robert Johnson's legendary deal with the Devil to real-life vampire lore, we explore the shadowy edges of horror and spellcraft. We cover ancient garlic rituals, vampiric goddesses like the Empusae and Lamia, and garlic's sacred link to Hekate. Plus: folklore from Romania, real historical vampire cases, and protective charm work you can use today.

Witches, I'm beside myself with this one. This week I'm joined by my favourite podcaster of all time — Timothy Renner from the legendary Strange Familiars podcast. If you've ever felt the forest watching, if you've ever wondered what walks between worlds with you… this conversation is for you. We dive into -

In the Forest of Letting Go A Cord Cutting Ritual for Release, Renewal & Quiet Power - this connects to the Practical Magic episode released before this. Step softly into the forest. In this sacred space of moss and memory, we gather for a cord cutting ritual—an act of tender release and sovereign reclamation. Whether you're letting go of an old lover, a lingering energetic tie, or a version of yourself that no longer serves you, this spell is for you. ✨ In this episode, you'll find - A gentle guided meditation to support emotional release and energetic clearing A visualisation ritual featuring a ceremonial knife Reflection prompts to honour the lessons and blessings of what you're releasing An invitation to step back into your power—clear, grounded, and whole This is not about banishment in bitterness, but about blessing the path ahead with clarity and self-trust. It's about honoring your sensitivity as strength and making space for what wants to grow now that the old has been laid to rest. Light a candle, breathe deep, and enter the forest. It's time to let go—beautifully.

In this enchanting episode, we step into the warm, witchy glow of Practical Magic—a film of sisterhood, spellwork, and soul-deep lessons. Brew a cup of tea (or indulge in a slice of chocolate cake for breakfast) as we unravel the magick woven through the lives of the Owens women. ✨ What's inside the cauldron -

In this special episode of The White Witch Podcast, I'm joined once again by the incredible Danielle Dulsky — wild word witch, sacred storyteller, and author of the newly released book The Night House. Together we explore the rich terrain of fairy tales, feminine archetypes, and the wild wisdom woven into myth and shadow. We talk about the power of storytelling as spellwork, the reclamation of old voices, and the deep, often dark magic that lives in every woman's bones. Whether you're a lover of folklore, a seeker of story-medicine, or a witch walking the edges of the in-between — this conversation is a deep breath of wild truth. Light a candle, settle in, and let the tale unfold. Danielle Dulsky is the author of The Holy Wild, Sacred Hags Oracle, Seasons of Moon and Flame, Woman Most Wild, and most recently The Holy Wild Grimoire. A heathen visionary, painter, poet, storyteller, and word-witch, she teaches internationally and has facilitated circles, embodiment trainings, communal spell-work, and seasonal rituals since 2007. She is the founder of The Hag School and believes in the emerging power of wild collectives and sudden circles of curious dreamers, cunning witches, and rebellious artists in healing our ailing world.
