    In this cozy-chaotic catch-up episode, the witches are back around the ole coffee table with stories, laughter, and a sprinkle of new magic! First up, Mauve shares her enchanting new adventure:Have Cauldron, Will Travel — a roving ritual roadshow bringing sabbats and community magic to witches across Nova Scotia. Think: pop-up circles, moonlit gatherings, and a sabbath rituals with serious main character energy. All aligned with engaging the magical community all across the province and maybe farther to help out where needed. But the real heart of this episode? A deep, soul-stirring (and occasionally giggle-filled) discussion about our next big project: A community-crafted Pagan Book of Prayers.We're dreaming of a beautiful, ever-growing collection of words woven with intention and magic — a book you can turn to when you need grounding, guidance, or a goddess-powered pep talk.Morning offerings, evening gratitude's, prayers to the Moon, charms for strength, rites of passage, seasonal invocations, or those little whispered wishes you say when lighting a candle — we want them all.This isn't about perfection or high poetry (though we love both). It's about authenticity. About creating something sacred and accessible. About capturing the beating heart of modern pagan practice, one prayer at a time.✨ We're officially putting out a call to action:Send us your original prayers, chants, blessings, rituals, and witchy words. Whether it's for Samhain or sunrise, grief or joy, big life shifts or daily devotion — your voice belongs in this.So grab your quills, typewriters, or enchanted iPhones — and let's co-create something powerful, personal, and oh-so-magical.Blessed be, and happy listening.

    “Where Did That Wand Come From?” – Ethical Sourcing in Modern Pagan PracticeThis week, your favourite coven of conversationalists—Margo, Maeve, Gwen, and Brian—gather 'round the mic to stir the cauldron on a vital topic in today's magical landscape: Ethical sourcing.Have you ever stopped to wonder where your cloak came from? That gorgeous crystal on your altar? That intricately carved wand that showed up two days after a Temu impulse-buy binge? Sure, your altar looks fabulous… but do you know where that wand came from? Was your cloak stitched with care, - or churned out by a fast-fashion goblin via "fast fashion" express? And let's not even start on those suspiciously cheap amethyst towers... ✨ In this episode, we ask the hard questions:Can a tool hold power if it was made under exploitative conditions?Why do so many of us hold our magical tools to higher sourcing standards than the smartphones in our pockets?Is energy affected by intention alone, or does the origin of an item matter?Can thrifted finds and antique market treasures hold new life in our practice if they're cleansed and consecrated properly?Will your ritual fall flat if your cauldron was ... um, “liberated” from grandma's attic without permission?We also deep-dive into witchy thrifting, DIY, and the powerful magic in homemade tools—all while exploring the ethical and energetic implications of the items we bring into our sacred spaces.So grab your ethically-sourced tea, light that responsibly-harvested sage (or maybe reach for rosemary instead? ), and join us for a lively chat that's equal parts thought-provoking and enchantingly practical.

    The cauldron is bubbling, the conversation is flowing, and the peach cider is definitely enchanted. Join Maeve, Margo, Gwen (your resident witches), and Brian (our wise druid) as they gather once more around their famously magical coffee table to explore the wild, wonderful world of women in paganism.This week's episode is a deep as our favourite hosts take a wild ride through the thickets of women in paganism—. From the early days of feminist witchcraft to today's more gender-inclusive circles, we explore the energy that draws people into the Craft. Is it the divine feminine? The call of the wild? Or maybe just the aesthetic? (Let's be honest—flowy robes and candles are a crowd pleaser... )

This week, Margo, Mauve, Gwen, and Brian are back at the kitchen table, drinks in hand and minds wide open, diving into one of the spookiest, most intriguing topics yet—where do ghosts, aliens, and cryptids fit into modern paganism?Do spirits of the dead exist alongside our gods and ancestors, or are ghosts something entirely different? Are aliens ancient deities, cosmic travellers, or just figments of our collective imagination? And what about cryptids—are beings like Bigfoot, the Mothman, or the Loch Ness Monster misunderstood nature spirits, magical entities, or creatures science just hasn't caught up with yet?Expect exciting debates, personal stories of the unexplained, and a deep dive into folklore, mythology, and modern pagan practice. Whether you're a skeptic, a believer, or somewhere in between, this episode will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about the supernatural.So grab your favourite brew—tea, mead, or something a little stronger—and pull up a chair.

This is the last of a three-part series.Hospitality“acting as both a gracious host and an appreciative guest, involving benevolence, friendliness, humour, and the honouring of ‘a gift for a gift'” (Our Own Druidry 83). Merriam-Webster defines hospitality as: “hospitable treatment, reception, or disposition; the activity or business of providing services to guests in hotels, restaurants, bars, etc.” (“Hospitality”).Moderation“cultivating one's appetites so that one is neither a slave to them nor driven to ill health (mental or physical), through excess or deficiency” (Our Own Druidry 83). Merriam-Webster defines moderation as: “avoiding extremes of behaviour or expression; observing reasonable limits; calm, temperate” (“Moderation”).Fertility“bounty of mind, body and spirit, involving creativity, production of objects, food, works of art, etc., an appreciation of the physical, sensual, nurturing” (Our Own Druidry 83). Merriam-Webster defines fertility as: “the quality or state of being fertile” (“Fertility”), while the definition of fertile is listed as “characterized by great resourcefulness of thought or imagination” (“Fertile”).

    The three Witches and a Druid sit around the coffee table and discuss nine Druidic Virtues of ADF. This is a three-part series.Courage“The ability to act appropriately in the face of danger” (Our Own Druidry 82). Merriam-Webster defines courage as: “Mental or moral strength to venture, persevere, and withstand danger, fear, or difficulty” (“Courage”)Integrity“Honor, being trustworthy to oneself and to others, involving oath-keeping, honesty, fairness, respect, self-confidence” (Our Own Druidry 82). Merriam-Webster defines integrity as: “Firm adherence to a code of especially moral or artistic values (incorruptibility); an unimpaired condition; and the quality or state of being complete or undivided” (“Integrity”).Perseverance“drive; the motivation to pursue goals even when that pursuit becomes difficult” (Our Own Druidry 82). Merriam-Webster defines perseverance as: “Steadfastness in doing something despite difficulty or delay in achieving success” (“Perseverance”) which is very similar to how ADF defines it, but with the added definition of “drive.” I'd say that the combination of the two definitions help refine the meaning.
