Help keep our podcast going by contributing to our Patreon! How would Alaric of the Visigoths celebrate the midwinter holiday (Christmas? Solstice? Yule?). The idea was kicked around a lot between the two of us until it seemed imperative that we actually write this episode. And thus, an episode was born. In this episode, Alaric is about six years old. He doesn't exactly understand that his life is hanging by a knife's edge – caught between the invading Huns and the colonizing Romans. This is the story of a little boy just trying to do the right thing and not get his belly slit open by the Perchta, as one does around this time of year. So sit back, pour yourself a festive holiday beverage, and enjoy this very fictional, occasionally true episode.  Sponsors & Advertising This podcast is a member of Airwave Media podcast network.

It's that time of year again: frantic last minute shopping, swearing at rolls of Sellotape, covering fir trees with bling....and the dragons emerge with a festive folkloric offering that adds a bit of shadow to the season.   This year Jules and Madeleine take a look at the strange relationship between Christmas and witchcraft. If that sounds implausible, stick around - there is a bizarre logic behind it. As with many folkloric traditions, the Christmas witch goes back centuries but some of the modern iterations bring a new level of horror to the tradition. We remember Father Christmas but forget Perchta. We tell stories about St Nicholas but forget St Lucy and her alter Ego, Bloody Lucy. And just who led the wild hunts during Saturnalia and later the twelve days of Christmas? Find out in a special festive episode.   Title music: Ecstasy by Smiling Cynic

Greeting's heathens and witches,Welcome to the Horn and Cauldron podcast… Yule traditionally starts on the Winter Solstice and ends on Jan 1, though it used to last for two months which meant this festive season helped get you through the coldest, darkest part of year. It's also the season most associated with snow and ice. For this year's 104 series, we're delving into elemental magic, and what better way to start with snow and ice magic! While technically a subset of water magic, snow and ice have unique properties and spells that make the great to add to your spell repertoire. We also discuss ways to honor the season of Yule, extending that holiday feeling all the way through Imbolc. There's deities associated with snow and ice, too. Of course, we round out the episode by talking about how we celebrate Yule.

Each Christmas season, the mountain peoples of Europe are beset by monsters. Fearsome figures like Krampus, Perchta, and the Kuker descend into quaint hilltop villages, sometimes to spread holiday cheer, sometimes to hasten the coming of spring, and sometimes just to sew chaos and discord. These figures are all part of similar winter celebrations found across the Alps, stretching from their western foothills in France all the way to the Dinaric Alps of the Balkans. Due to the primal nature of these traditions, in which men and women wear the skins of beasts and the faces of demons, scholars and churchmen have wondered for decades if these Christmas festivals could really be a remnant of much older traditions. On this week's episode of Gladio Free Europe, Liam and Russian Sam explore the history of these Christmastime monsters, and the widespread traditions of people wearing their costumes to parade through the streets. While drawing a straight from Krampus to ancient Alpine paganism is not particularly easy, some of these figures offer interesting parallels to what we know of the traditional pantheons that Christianity supplanted. Historians today are much hesitant to attribute modern beliefs to paganism than they might have been in the time of the Brothers Grimm. But it's clear that these traditions are among the oldest in Europe, with interesting to the development of witchcraft lore and even the spread of deadly witch hunts across medieval and Early Modern Europe. Join us on a trip to the snowy highlands of Austria, Germany, Slovenia, and Bulgaria and decide for yourself if these winter monsters may be our last remnant of the pagan world.

Fair Folk Podcast

In this January almanac episode, I share about how English Plough Sunday and Plough Monday rituals dovetail with pagan midwinter worship of Odin to present a quandary as rich today as ever: How do we hold sacred the human capacity to employ technologies that multiply our power, while dancing on the delicate balance between service and domination? How do we bless the hard work of human hands where it meets the life of the world? This episode delves into traditions of chasing out the spirits of Yule, as well as blessing of apple trees, ploughs, and ultimately ploughboys as representatives of the overflow of human passion and physical power.

This month I'll be focusing on the new cycle of years changing over the end of the Yule season and our relationship to labour and technology, which was a focus that arose for me while I was researching this January episode. That hasn't arisen for me before, but it definitely is an emphasis of English and Nordic tradition, and it'll explain more as we go ahead. Other themes that arise in January folklore are the continued divination and predictive quality for the year ahead that we've may have already seen in December. Folklore also the supernatural and the feminine visiting from the wilds beyond, because it is still winter and these forces still rule. There's often a theme in January songs especially of weather, bad weather, loneliness, cold and love, longing as metaphorically associated with those sensations of coldness and isolation in the wintertime. And of course, the slow return of the sun is being observed across European folklore, which is what I always focus on.

It surveys November droving and pannage traditions, Guy Fawkes Day on November 5th, fox hunting and its complex legacy, St. Martins day on November 11 and its entanglement with goose lore, and St. Catherine's day on November 25th, which opens the season of the Germanic winter goddesses, whose later folklore connects spinning and wheels, snow, wild animals, flying, geese, and children.

En una noche tan especial hemos querido hacer algo especial y diferente, por eso hemos invitado a varios amigos para que se pasen por el programa y colaboren de una u otra forma. En la parte central por lo tanto no tenemos entrevista si no una charla en la que intervienen Alberto Guzmán, El Kowalsky, Joni BL y Alberto Hernández. Hablarán sobre las propuestas y restricciones del Gobierno para estas fiestas navideñas, sobre las diferencias de los planes del año pasado a los de este y como no podía ser de otra manera también sobre planes para realizar en Navidad, pelis, series, rutas, juegos de mesa ... Comenzamos con la sección "Claqueta de Medianoche" donde Joni BL nos recomienda una película titulada "Cuento de Navidad", está dirigida por Paco Plaza y a pesar de su título no tiene nada que ver con la obra de Charles Dickens. Continuamos con la apertura de nuestra galería de personajes anti navideños, el primero es Hans Trapp y su leyenda es muy conocida en algunas regiones de Francia y Alemania, además con base real. Seguimos con la dramatización "Moriréis Desgraciados", un relato exclusivo escrito por Joni BL y con voces de nuestro compañero, de Kela Carrasco y Alberto Hernández. La segunda parte del programa la abrimos con el Krampus, ese personaje similar a una cabra y mitad demonio que está relacionado con Santa Claus, pone voz El Kowalsky. Continuamos con la segunda dramatización de la noche, "Menú de Navidad" es la historia de un chico que conoce a la familia de su novia pero nada es lo que parece, ponen voz : Jose María Real, Valeria Surcis, Beatriz Castro, Kela Carrasco, Joni BL y Alberto Hernández. Cerramos este programa navideño con el último personaje anti navidad de la noche, Perchta ó Bertha, para algunos es una bruja pero para otros puede ser una diosa perteneciente al paganismo Miguel Ángel Linares nos acerca esta leyenda. Poneros cómodos, abrocharos los cinturones y ajustad bien el volumen de los cascos porque el viaje a través del misterio de la Navidad arranca ahora.

Did you know that many of the attributes Santa Claus actually come from a beloved winter witch?  The giving gifts in a stocking if you're good, leaving you a lump of coal if you're bad, and the whole sliding down the chimney to do so schtick? Yeah, that's all plucked straight from the mythology one of our winter witches.  But be forewarned…not all of our witches are good: some are frightening cannibals or violent hags that embody the ruthless spirit of winter itself.  But history suggests that these witches were not always haggard old crones or even witches at all, but instead were once beautiful goddesses.  Today we'll be looking at these winter witches, investigating their origins beyond superficial blog posts, and seeing how Christianity managed to turn divine goddesses into hook-nosed old crones who will rip our your organs.

Just in time for Christmas, episode 64 of the Ancient Art Podcast spins a Yuletide yarn. All decked out for the holidays, this amazing, little, elvish sprite weaves us up a tall mountain pass on an enchanting journey through antiquity. The 5,000 year old horned striding figure from the ancient Near Eastern Proto-Elamite culture captivates our imagination of the enigmatic wild man of collective ancient lore. Herein we meet Gilgamesh's Enkidu, Egyptian gods and Pharaohs, the Greco-Roman Hercules, Olympian athletes, modern statesmen, and Europe's pagan renderings of an untamed, primal Santa Claus and companions Knecht Ruprecht, Perchta, Belsnickel, Zwarte Piet, the Julbocken, and of course Krampus!
