September 29 is Michaelmas, a day rooted in Celtic harvest traditions that was later woven into the Christian church calendar. As we move deeper into autumn, you might already intuitively and naturally feel the invitation to release, reflect, and reckon—spiritually, emotionally, even financially. That's no coincidence. It was originally a pagan day used for settling debts, honoring harvest cycles, and marking seasonal transitions, but it became associated with the archangel Michael. Even for our ancestors, the Mabon portal continued even after the date of the official equinox. In the spirit of staying in the portal, I made you a FREE companion guide for this episode! This FREE instant access (and pretty!) PDF will give you 10 easy and enjoyable ways to celebrate the Autumn Equinox + 9 journal prompts to help you reflect and process the inspiration of this season.

As the air starts to cool, it's tempting to pile on the layers and forget that we live in a body for a while. Without the pressure of donning a swimsuit, many of us disconnect from our bodies to avoid (the sometimes complex) relationship we have with our physical form. But what if the colder months actually offer an opportunity to nurture a new relationship with the skin we're in? Perhaps we can use this time to explore what we, as individuals, want from our bodies away from the gaze of others. Rather than focusing our energy on arbitrary scale numbers or clothing tags, we instead shift our focus to how our bodies feel under our own hands. How much muscle feels good to you? How much softness do you prefer? Forget what other like, it's your body, what do you like? As we stroll through the forest, imagine an autumn connecting with your sacred vessel, it's not too late to embrace the skin you're in.

det var alltid lika magiskt.En: Elina gasped; it was always just as magical.Sv: Viggo stirrade med stora ögon.En: Viggo stared with wide eyes.Sv: Han försökte hitta en förklaring.En: He tried to find an explanation.Sv: "Kanske reflekterar de ljus från något," mumlade han, men hans röster lät osäker.En: "Maybe they reflect light from something," he mumbled, but his voice sounded uncertain.Sv: Elina kunde se hur ljusen påverkade honom.En: Elina could see how the lights affected him.Sv: Han kanske inte trodde på magi, men ljusens skönhet kunde inte förnekas.En: He might not believe in magic, but the beauty of the lights could not be denied.Sv: När tiden gick började ljusen sakta att blekna.En: As time passed, the lights began to slowly fade.Sv: Folket runt omkring började röra sig, fortfarande fyllda av den fascinerande upplevelsen.En: The people around started to move, still filled with the fascinating experience.Sv: Viggo stod kvar bredvid Elina.En: Viggo remained standing next to Elina.Sv: "Jag kanske inte förstår," sa han.En: "I might not understand," he said.Sv: "Men jag kan erkänna att det var... något speciellt."En: "But I can admit that it was... something special."Sv: Elina nickade.En: Elina nodded.Sv: "Ibland är det okej att inte veta allt.En: "Sometimes it's okay not to know everything.Sv: Att bara uppleva."En: Just to experience."Sv: De vände sig om för att gå tillbaka nerför kullen.En: They turned to walk back down the hill.Sv: Viggo stoppade anteckningsboken i fickan och log mot Elina.En: Viggo put the notebook in his pocket and smiled at Elina.Sv: Hon hade lärt honom något viktigt den kvällen.En: She had taught him something important that evening.Sv: "Jag tror jag har en annan artikel att skriva," sa han.En: "I think I have a different article to write," he said.Sv: Elina skrattade, och de gick tillsammans i den stilla höstnatten, alla frågor och svar vilande under stjärnhimlen.En: Elina laughed, and they walked together in the still autumn night, all questions and answers resting under the starry sky.

Yes, there is lots of red, orange and gold so the fall vibes are strong with this one!Then we dive into some origin stories like the Welsh fable from which it gets its name. It's full of unpronouncable names like Culhwch, sage old Salmon, the questing beast, and even a name drop of King Arthur! He's low-key like that's my cuz, man. So grab a snack, say Son-of-a-mother! and tune in to Mabon Fests and Feasts!Darkcast Promo of the Week: Scottish Murders! All about crimes in Scotland and involving Scots. Such a good show!

imot den dyrebare genseren.En: Sigrid smiled at the seller and gently accepted the precious sweater.No: Da de forlot boden, følte hun seg lettet og lykkelig.En: As they left the stall, she felt relieved and happy.No: Hun hadde fulgt hjertet sitt, og det føltes riktig.En: She had followed her heart, and it felt right.No: Høsten fortsatte å omslutte Bryggen i sitt varme omfavn, og mens paret ruslet videre, innså både Sigrid og Mikkel at noen ganger er den emosjonelle verdien av noe langt viktigere enn prislappen.En: Autumn continued to envelop Bryggen in its warm embrace, and as the couple strolled on, both Sigrid and Mikkel realized that sometimes the emotional value of something is far more important than the price tag.No: Sigrid bar genseren med stolthet, en påminnelse om hennes røtter og kjærlighet til gamle tradisjoner.En: Sigrid wore the sweater with pride, a reminder of her roots and love for old traditions.No: Mikkel, på sin side, smilte tilfreds.En: Mikkel, for

The air is getting cooler, the days are getting shorter, autumn is officially upon us! Mabon, also knows as the Autumn Equinox, is a time to prepare for the darker months to come. With a little intentional planning, the dark half of the year can be a time of thriving rather than simply enduring. What will this season look like for you? Is there healing work that deserves your attention? Maybe a creative project or a learning pursuit is beckoning? After the fall decor has been hung, take some time to explore what's under the surface. As we stroll through the changing woods, consider the preparations that your life requires this Mabon.

Impulse für die Tagundnachtgleiche im Herbst & eine sinnliche Meditation für die Balance
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

Transcript:Sv: Hösten kastade sina gyllene löv över staden, och solen sken med ett milt ljus genom sjukhusfönstren.En: Autumn cast its golden leaves over the city, and the sun shone with a mild light through the hospital windows.Sv: Luften utanför var krispig och fylld av doften av friska löv, en påminnelse om att det var dags för Mabon, höstsabbaten.En: The air outside was crisp and filled with the scent of fresh leaves, a reminder that it was time for Mabon, the autumn sabbat.Sv: Inne i sjukhusrummet låg Elsa, en patient nyss återhämtad från en svår sjukdom.En: Inside the hospital room, Elsa lay, a patient just recovering from a serious illness.Sv: Hon låg i sängen och tittade ut på de dansande löven, försjunken i sina tankar.En: She lay in bed watching the dancing leaves, absorbed in her thoughts.Sv: Det var en ovanlig dag.En: It was an unusual day.Sv: Hon hade precis fått veta att hennes nya läkare var Viktor, hennes gamla barndomsvän.En: She had just found out that her new doctor was Viktor, her old childhood friend.Sv: Tankar virvlade runt i hennes huvud.En: Thoughts swirled around in her head.Sv: Hur många år hade det gått sedan de senast såg varandra?En: How many years had it been since they last saw each other?Sv: Elsa kände sig plötsligt liten och sårbar, men med ett starkt behov av att försonas med det förflutna.En: Elsa suddenly felt small and vulnerable, but with a strong need to reconcile with the past.Sv: Dörren sköts försiktigt upp och Viktor klev in i rummet.En: The door was gently pushed open, and Viktor stepped into the room.Sv: Han log artigt, klädd i sin vita rock, men Elsas hjärta sjönk.En: He smiled politely, dressed in his white coat, but Elsa's heart sank.Sv: Kom ihåg han henne?En: Did he remember her?Sv: Eller var hon bara en annan patient för honom?En: Or was she just another patient to him?Sv: Trots osäkerheten bestämde sig Elsa för att ta initiativet.En: Despite the uncertainty, Elsa decided to take the initiative.Sv: "Hej, Viktor," sa hon mjukt och såg honom i ögonen.En: "Hi, Viktor," she said softly, looking him in the eyes.Sv: Viktor stannade upp ett ögonblick, överraskad.En: Viktor stopped for a moment, surprised.Sv: En skymt av igenkänning blixtrade till i hans blick.En: A flash of recognition flickered in his gaze.Sv: Han rynkade pannan lite, sen log han igen, denna gång varmare.En: He frowned a little, then smiled again, this time warmer.Sv: "E-Elsa?En: "E-Elsa?Sv: Är det verkligen du?"En: Is it really you?"Sv: frågade han osäkert.En: he asked uncertainly.Sv: "Ja, det är jag.En: "Yes, it's me.Sv: Lång tid har gått," svarade Elsa med en suck, lättad över att han kom ihåg henne.En: It's been a long time," replied Elsa with a sigh, relieved that he remembered her.Sv: De pratade länge, och det var som om tiden rullats tillbaka.En: They talked for a long time, and it was as if time had rolled back.Sv: Viktor satte sig vid hennes sängkant, och de började dela minnen från deras barndom.En: Viktor sat down at her bedside, and they began to share memories from their childhood.Sv: Men ett tyst skugga fanns mellan dem, deras ofullständigt avslutade vänskap och de obesvarade frågor.En: But there was a silent shadow between them, their incomplete friendship and unanswered questions.Sv: "Vi tappade kontakten så plötsligt," sade Elsa och såg ner på sina händer.En: "We lost touch so suddenly," said Elsa, looking down at her hands.Sv: Hon visste inte hur hon skulle fråga vad som hände, men hon behövde försöka.En: She didn't know how to ask what happened, but she needed to try.Sv: Viktor tog ett djupt andetag.En: Viktor took a deep breath.Sv: "Jag vet.En: "I know.Sv: Jag var en dålig vän, Elsa.En: I was a bad friend, Elsa.Sv: Livet drog mig med, men jag har ofta tänkt på dig."En: Life pulled me away, but I've often thought of you."Sv: Det blev tyst ett ögonblick, vindens sus hördes genom fönstret.En: There was a silent moment, the sound of the wind heard through the window.Sv: Sedan tog Viktor hennes hand.En: Then Viktor took her hand.Sv: "Vill du träffas utanför det här stället, prata mer?En: "Do you want to meet outside this place, talk more?Sv: Jag vill verkligen reparera det vi hade."En: I really want to mend what we had."Sv: Elsa kände en våg av lättnad och hopp.En: Elsa felt a wave of relief and hope.Sv: "Ja, det vill jag gärna," svarade hon, med ett leende som nådde hela vägen till ögonen.En: "Yes, I'd like that," she replied, with a smile that reached all the way to her eyes.Sv: När Viktor lämnade rummet den dagen hade något förändrats.En: When Viktor left the room that day, something had changed.Sv: Elsa kände sig lugnare, liksom befriad från en del av de tunga känslorna.En: Elsa felt calmer, as if freed from some of the heavy emotions.Sv: De beslutade att träffas igen, inte som läkare och patient, utan som gamla vänner med en gemensam historia att utforska.En: They decided to meet again, not as doctor and patient, but as old friends with a shared history to explore.Sv: Och medan ännu fler löv föll utanför, reflekterade båda över vikten av balans - mellan yrkesliv och personliga relationer, mellan det förflutna och nuet.En: And as even more leaves fell outside, both reflected on the importance of balance—between professional life and personal relationships, between the past and the present.Sv: Det var Mabon, en tid för balans och reflektion, och det kändes rätt.En: It was Mabon, a time for balance and reflection, and it felt right.

For me, fall feels like gratitude woven right into the air. It's the season of harvest baskets, chunky sweaters, and yes lots and lots of pumpkin-spice-everything moments! But deeper than that, it's about balance, it's about letting ourselves be held by the cycles of the Earth. We've planted, we've tended, we've grown and now we gather. Today it's all about the magic of this season, the symbols, the stories, and of course some practical, everyday ways we can bring Mabon energy into our lives. I can't wait to share it all with you!Patreon FamilyWitchyWorkWishes.comHearth & Hen

It's a time when day and night are equal length, symbolizing balance and harmony. Referred to as the "Witches' Thanksgiving," it's a time to give thanks for the harvest and the abundance in our lives. As the days grow shorter, we reflect on the year so far and prepare for the coming winter months.Did you know? Mabon celebrates the story of Demeter, goddess of grain, agriculture, and fertility, and her daughter Persephone. When Hades abducts Persephone and forces her to marry him in the underworld, Demeter causes the Earth to go barren. Zeus negotiates with Hades to allow Persephone to be free for half the year, so Demeter only allows abundance on Earth half the year.Even though the exact date of the equinox is September 22, we can celebrate this whole season.

We are quickly approaching the Autumn Equinox, when we'll transition into the dark half of the year. I used to hate the darkness - literally and metaphorically. I especially dreaded Daylight Savings Time. I equated the darkness with depression, and from a spiritual perspective, I used to associate it with evil. On my rewilding journey, I've now come to see it much differently - as a blessing! Darkness can be... the void that births all of creationwhere things grow in the womb and in the soilwhere our roots grow down deepwhere we connect with our inner world and the invisible growth and transformations that matter just as much as, if not more than, what our culture obsesses over in terms of upward, measurable growthTune in to hear more about the Mirror of Mabon to release the fear of darkness and receive its blessings.**I made you a FREE companion guide for this episode!

As the light shifts and the wheel turns, we slip into the golden hush of autumn
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.

Hello Witches Join me on todays episode of The White Witch Podcast where I dive deep into the realms of psychology, spirit and alchemy to uncover what it truly means to transform your life from the inside out. We explore - Viktor Frankl vs Freud – Why Frankl's forward-facing philosophy of meaning and responsibility may serve us more than Freud's obsession with the past.

Chapter 1 What's Wheel Of The Year by Pauline Campanelli"Wheel of the Year" by Pauline Campanelli is a comprehensive guide that explores the cycle of seasonal festivals celebrated within the pagan calendar. Campanelli delves into the eight major Sabbats—Imbolc, Ostara, Beltane, Litha, Lammas, Mabon, Samhain, and Yule—offering insights into their historical origins, significance, and modern-day celebrations. The book is not just a mere calendar; it weaves together folklore, traditions, rituals, and seasonal practices, providing readers with practical guidance on how to honor each Sabbat in their own lives. Campanelli emphasizes the importance of connecting with nature, observing seasonal changes, and celebrating the rhythms of the earth. Through step-by-step rituals, recipes, and meditations, readers learn how to merge ancient wisdom with contemporary practices to create a meaningful spiritual experience throughout the year. This work serves as both an educational resource and an inspirational guide for those wishing to deepen their relationship with the natural world and the cycle of life.Chapter 2 Wheel Of The Year by Pauline Campanelli Summary"Wheel of the Year" by Pauline Campanelli is a comprehensive guide that explores the pagan seasonal festivals and their significance within the neo-pagan traditions, particularly Wicca. The book outlines the eight major festivals that make up the Wheel of the Year, which are:Samhain (October 31 November 1) A festival marking the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter, believed to be a time when the veil between the living and the dead is thinnest.Yule (Winter Solstice) Celebrating the rebirth of the sun, this festival honors the return of longer days and the fertility of the earth.Imbolc (February 1-2) A festival dedicated to the goddess Brigid, signifying the first signs of spring and the promise of renewed life and growth.Ostara (Spring Equinox) Marking the balance of day and night, Ostara celebrates fertility and rebirth, aligning with themes of renewal in nature.Beltane (May 1) A fire festival that celebrates fertility, the union of the God and Goddess, and the abundance of life in spring.Litha (Summer Solstice) A celebration of the longest day of the year, focusing on the sun's power and the peak of growth before the decline of summer.Lammas (August 1) A harvest festival that offers gratitude for the earth's bounty, marking the time of ripening grain and fruit.Mabon (Autumn Equinox) A time of thanksgiving for the harvest, recognizing the balance between light and dark as the year moves toward winter.Throughout the book, Campanelli provides historical contexts, rituals, spells, recipes, and crafts associated with each festival, encouraging readers to actively participate in the cycles of nature. She emphasizes themes such as gratitude, community, and the interconnectedness of life, inviting practitioners to engage with the natural world and celebrate the changing seasons. Each chapter serves as both a spiritual guide and a practical resource for those looking to deepen their connection to pagan traditions, fostering a sense of respect and appreciation for the earth's rhythms.Chapter 3 Wheel Of The Year AuthorPauline Campanelli is an American author, known for her writings on Wicca, paganism, and earth-centered spirituality. She authored the book "Wheel of the Year: Living the Magical Life" which was released in 1993 and has since become a fundamental work for those interested in neo-pagan practices, especially for those following the Wheel of the Year in their spiritual traditions.Apart from "Wheel of the Year," Campanelli has written several other books, including:"The Witch's Book of the Dead""The Magical Herbalism" (co-authored with Artemisia Cross)"Wicca: A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner" (as an inspirational...
This moon asks us to find something meaningful to fight for and/or to turn our swords to ploughshares. Witness the fullness of your process around your sacred warrior energy, the difference between being self-centered vs centered in Self. Where can we light lamps and curse the forces that would diminish that light? Spica and Arcturus oversee the dispensation of gifts, and the consequences of withholding from those in need. Thoth and Nepthys and Cernunnos and more all show up this week to help us understand the step we are taking in the Underworld Journey.

Happy Autumn Equinox/ Mabon/ Fall Ya'll! The long, hot, sunny days of Summer have come to a completion for the year (in the Northern hemisphere) as Autumn is now upon us. Time to pull out the pumpkin and apple scented candles, cozy blankets, and hot drinks. Fall is a time of harvest; gathering and enjoying the gifts we have reaped from the year so far. We begin to reflect, take care of tasks, complete cycles, and break away from what hasn't been working to prepare ourselves for the reclusive Winter season. On this Divine Feminine solo episode I celebrate the arrival of Autumn and share some of the beautiful aspects of this changing of the seasons, the balanced aspect of Mabon with the day/night hours being equal and the arrival of Libra season. I also emphasize the unique component of Autumn arriving through the eclipse portal and how that adds a little spice (pun intended) to our celebration. The eclipse energies can provide an assist with some of the bigger decisions and undertaking we may be drawn towards in this time of shorter days and colder weather.
