Look, it's okay. You'll be able to sleep just fine. Sure, witches can be scary but keep two things in mind: witches are pretend so they can't hurt you and some list-making analytical thinking is a great way to doze off to some shuteye that is guaranteed toad, broomstick, and cackle-free.

We're throwing it back to the 1996 cult classic film The Craft just in time for Halloween! We begin with a conversation about Hannah and Marcelle's teenage witch phases (of course they both had them), before digging into the filmic landscape of the 90s. Hannah argues that The Craft's interest in girlhood and power was a catalyst that paved the way for pop culture to come, like Buffy and Charmed and Practical Magic. Hannah then draws on Stacy Gillis and Rebecca Munford's “Genealogies and Generations: The Politics and Praxis of Third Wave Feminism" and Jessica Rosenberg and Gitana Garofalo's “Riot Grrrl: Revolutions from Within" to help understand the resonance of film.

This week on The Watchers, Andrea and Jodie are watching Practical Magic, the 1998 Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman film that's part romantic comedy, part gothic melodrama, and part cozy autumn mood board. We talk about its tonal chaos, the domestic-violence subplot that doesn't quite fit, and whether or not Practical Magic accidentally invented cottagecore. Plus: the haunted production history, the witch consultant who may or may not have cursed the director, a coven of small-town moms, and why, despite (or because of) its messiness, Practical Magic has become such a touchstone for millennial witches everywhere.Next week, we're diving into The Fall, Tarsem Singh's sweeping, surreal fairy tale about grief, imagination, and the stories we tell to survive.If you're reading this, that means you've probably got your podcatcher of choice open right now.

This week, we're venturing into the shadowed crossroads between life and death — exploring necromancy, resurrection, and the desperate lengths witches have gone to for love and loss. From Sally's tearful plea for the aunts to bring Michael back, to the infamous “trash witch” attempt that saw Sally and Gillian raise Jimmy from the dead, we're unpacking how Practical Magic intertwines resurrection with grief, consequence, and feminine power.We'll also trace these cinematic moments back through history — to the rise of Spiritualism in the 19th century, when séances, spirit boards, and table-tipping became tools for mourning and mysticism alike. What drew people to the idea of crossing that veil? And why does the line between devotion and desperation blur so easily when it comes to the dead we love?Light a candle, grab your salt, and join us as we lift the veil on necromancy, the Owens way.SOCIALS:⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERO SOURCES DISCLAIMER:The Magnolia Street Podcast intends to discuss the movie, “Practical Magic” in its entirety.

Episode Summary: Welcome to the Advancing Women Podcast! In this Halloween-themed episode, we reclaim the witch archetype as a symbol of female power, independence, and solidarity. Building on last year's Season of the Witch, we explore how the witch reflects the experiences of ambitious women across history and today…from the backlash faced by independent women to the double standards confronting women leaders. Through media, history, and lived experience, we uncover how witches (and women!) have been feared, misunderstood, and sometimes punished for asserting autonomy. But there's a bright side: the witch is being reclaimed in fiction, in culture, and in women's networks, offering a model for persistence, solidarity, and strategic power. Join us as we dive into: The historical and modern symbolism of the witch How autonomy, economic independence, and ambition have provoked backlash across centuries The parallels between historical witch hunts and modern workplace double standards The power of covens—real and metaphorical—and what I call persisterhood Strategies for building networks of support, mentorship, and collective resilience This episode is a call to embrace your coven, celebrate your independence, and wear your power proudly. Because we are the persisterhood, and our solidarity, creativity, and courage are our most potent magic. “We are the granddaughters of the witches you weren't able to burn. Let's wear that badge proudly.” #covenofpersisterhood #seasonofthewitch #persisterhood #genderbias #leadershipbias #leadership #advancingwomenpodcast #genderequity Resources & References: Mona Chollet, In Defense of Witches Joan Williams, research on the tightrope bias and workplace double standards Media examples: Wicked, Practical Magic, Marvel's Agatha Harkness Historical context: Matilda Joslyn Gage on persecution of witches (Woman, Church and State, 1893) Connect & Engage: Subscribe, rate, and share the podcast!

This week, we're diving into the underworld of the mighty goddess Hekate, or as she's briefly invoked in Practical Magic's infamous resurrection scene, “Mighty Hektate, make it right!” We'll also find her presence woven through Alice Hoffman's novels, as she guides the Owens women through darkness, transformation, and choice.Joining us today is Vincent Higginbotham, author of How Witchcraft Saved My Life: Practical Advice for Transformative Magick and co-author of Thrifty Witchery: Magick for the Penny-Pinching Practitioner, both published through Llewellyn. Vincent's story is one of resilience, self-discovery, and the kind of magick born from survival. Through his devotion to Hekate and a longing for a maternal presence in his life, he's learned that vulnerability is power and transformation can bloom even in the darkest shadows.Together, we explore Hekate's many faces — torchbearer, keyholder, and guardian of the crossroads— and what it means to walk her path in modern witchcraft. Kristina's hesitations about getting to know the great goddess herself are then put to rest (because sometimes the dark can be surprisingly welcoming).All that and more about Hekate: The Mighty Queen of land, sea, and sky!SOCIALS:⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERO SOURCES DISCLAIMER:The Magnolia Street Podcast intends to discuss the movie, “Practical Magic” in its entirety.

It's time for episode three of the dragons' spooky season extravaganza and don't be deceived by the title. Folk Magic can go to some pretty dark places... This week, Jules and Madeleine take a look at a magic system that relies on mundane objects and folk knowledge. In fact this type of magic is, on the surface, so mundane that many people would argue that it's more superstition than a magic system. It forms a backbone in many folk horror and dark fantasy stories and even creeps into sci-fi and urban fantasy. So where does the magic of the mundane originate from? What is its logic? And how do you incorporate it in your own world building? On the slab this week - October Daye - Seanan McGuire, Terry Pratchett's Discworld, Practical Magic and many more. Title music: Ecstasy by Smiling Cynic

Things are getting (very nearly) spooky here in the studio, as the boys take a deep dive on Practical Magic starring Sandy B. So remember to bring your broom and eye of newt, the jokes cauldron is cooking up some good 'uns this week like: Happenings down at the docks, kind of a lot of truckin', The Mango Mover, Woucestephuchet and some serious log pushin'.

KB & Tanner are back with cozy chaos, clearing up their Bad Bunny oopsie, rating the Love Is Blind: Denver disasters, and celebrating Nicole Kidman's “Practical Magic” bangs era. From Diddy's sentencing to Dolly Parton's Facebook drama, this week's couch convo proves one thing: it's fun, it's messy, and it's OK to be wrong.

Host Natalie Grueninger interviews Dr Tabitha Stanmore about cunning folk in Tudor and early modern England — the everyday practitioners of practical magic who offered healing, fortune-telling, love spells and buried-treasure rituals.

In this episode, we journey through Alice Hoffman's entire Practical Magic universe—from Magic Lessons to The Book of Magic, alongside the beloved 1998 film—to uncover the mysteries of Spirit, the fifth and most elusive element of the witch's pentagram.While earth, air, fire, and water are easy to spot, Spirit is subtle: it's the breath that leaves with Aunt Isabelle, the apparition of Regina Owens arriving with a prophecy, and the invisible threads of love and fate that bind the Owens family across time. Together, we'll explore how Spirit surfaces in Hoffman's stories as astral travel, vision, legacy, and connection between worlds.Join us as we follow sparrows into the night sky, unearth ancestral gifts, and learn how the often-overlooked element of Spirit might be the one that ties the magic together.SOCIALS:⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERO SOURCES DISCLAIMER:The Magnolia Street Podcast intends to discuss the movie, “Practical Magic” in its entirety.

Come join the MURDER, as we turn our gaze skyward to the dark wings circling above the Owens family: The ever-mysterious crow. From their deep roots in folklore as messengers, tricksters, and omens, to their haunting presence in Alice Hoffman's Practical Magic series, crows remind us that magic is often found in shadow as much as in light. We'll explore how these intelligent birds embody themes of transformation, prophecy, and ancestral guidance, and why they continue to appear when the veil between worlds thins.Join us as we follow the caw of the crow through history, myth, and the world of Practical Magic—and discover what messages might be waiting for you in their call.SOCIALS:⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERO SOURCES DISCLAIMER:The Magnolia Street Podcast intends to discuss the movie, “Practical Magic” in its entirety.

This week on Magnolia Street, we crack open one of the most infamous occult texts in history: Francis Barrett's The Magus (1801): A Complete System of Occult Philosophy. Often called a plagiarized “handbook of magic,” this encyclopedic work pulled together alchemy, astrology, and ceremonial magic, shaping the way the occult has been imagined in both history and pop culture. However, in Alice Hoffman's Rules of Magic, the book takes on a more dangerous role. It turns up in Vincent Owens' hands as a source of temptation, identity, and power. Join us, The Stinas, as we trace the real history of The Magus, explore how Hoffman reimagines it for the Owens family story, and consider why this dusty old grimoire feels so Practical Magic-coded. We'll be taking you cover to cover, chapter by chapter, and breaking it down for you like an easily digestible morsel. We'll learn what it is, and what it's not. Is it a gateway to the dark left-handed path like Hoffman portrays it in her novel? Or is it a compendium of virtue and enlightenment for the dedicated practitioner ? Let's find out together in this thought provoke and educational episode!SOCIALS:⁠⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERO SOURCES⁠DISCLAIMER:The Magnolia Street Podcast intends to discuss the movie, “Practical Magic” in its entirety.

On this week's stroll down Magnolia Street, we're digging up the tangled roots of one of the most legendary plants in history: the Mandrake Root, or Mandragora. From ancient mythology and biblical “love fruit” lore to its dangerous role as a hallucinogen, narcotic, and surgical anesthetic, the mandrake has fascinated healers, witches, and storytellers alike for thousands of years. We'll explore its reputation as both a poison and a cure, the chilling myths surrounding its human-shaped root and fatal scream, and its presence as a magical talisman through history.We'll also uncover how the mandrake found its way into art, literature, and pop culture—from Shakespeare to Machiavelli to comic strips—and how a modern kibbutz even experimented with mandrake wine. And yes, long before the Harry Potter craze made screaming mandrakes a household name, the 1998 film Practical Magic slipped in a sneaky nod to this magickal root, planting it firmly in the witchy cinematic canon.Join us as we unearth the mandrake's journey from myth to medicine to movie magic.SOCIALS:⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERO SOURCESDISCLAIMER:The Magnolia Street Podcast intends to discuss the movie, “Practical Magic” in its entirety.

In this episode, we slip into the uncanny world of changeling lore — the ancient belief that a loved one could be stolen away by the fae, replaced with an uncanny double. From the eerie ballads of Ireland to the shadowy forests of Scandinavia, we explore how different cultures have told, feared, and tried to undo the changeling exchange.We'll revisit the haunting true story of Bridget Cleary, often called “the last witch burned in Ireland” (though she was no witch at all), and uncover the protective charms, salt lines, and rituals once believed to bring the real soul home. Then, we turn our gaze to Practical Magic — where, if you know how to look, you might just find a changeling story woven into Gillian Owens' possession by Jimmy.Whether you believe in fairy abductions or see them as metaphors for loss and transformation, changeling tales remind us of one timeless truth: love knows the real you, even when you've been lost.SOCIALS:⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERO SOURCES DISCLAIMER:The Magnolia Street Podcast intends to discuss the movie, “Practical Magic” in its entirety.

This week on Magnolia Street, we turn the page, literally and metaphorically, to explore magickal inks! From the smoke-darkened chambers of ancient scribes to the secret pages of modern grimoires, these enchanted inks have inscribed spells, drawn talismans, and summoned unseen forces. In today's episode, we dive into the hidden history and esoteric significance of magical inks. We'll uncover ancient recipes with strange yet powerful ingredients, from oak gall to dragon's blood resin, and even blood… yes, real blood. We'll also explore the folklore of invisible inks that reveal themselves through fire or time. Whether used to protect, conceal, summon, or transform, magical inks remind us that words are more than marks on a page; they are living spells etched in liquid intention. Join us as we trace these extraordinary elixirs across cultures and centuries, from the laboratories of ancient alchemists to the desks of modern poets, and of course through the pages of the Owens family grimoire in Alice Hoffman's enchanting Practical Magic series! SOCIALS:⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERO SOURCES DISCLAIMER:The Magnolia Street Podcast intends to discuss the movie, “Practical Magic” in its entirety.

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop sits down with astrologer and researcher C.T. Lucero for a wide-ranging conversation that weaves through ancient astrology, the evolution of calendars, the intersection of science and mysticism, and the influence of digital tools like AI on symbolic interpretation. They explore the historical lineage from Hellenistic Greece to the Persian golden age, discuss the implications of the 2020 Saturn-Jupiter conjunction, touch on astrocartography, and reflect on the information age's shifting paradigms. For more on the guest's work, check out ctlucero.com.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart Alsop introduces C.T. Lucero; they begin discussing time cycles and the metaphor of Monday as an unfolding future.05:00 Astrology's historical roots in Hellenistic Greece and Persian Baghdad; the transmission and recovery of ancient texts.10:00 The role of astrology in medicine and timing; predictive precision and interpreting symbolic calendars.15:00 Scientism vs. astrological knowledge; the objective reliability of planetary movement compared to shifting cultural narratives.20:00 Use of AI and large language models in astrology; the limits and future potential of automation in interpretation.25:00 Western vs. Vedic astrology; the sidereal vs. tropical zodiac debate and cultural preservation of techniques.30:00 Christianity, astrology, and the problem of idolatry; Jesus' position in relation to celestial knowledge.35:00 The Saturn-Jupiter conjunction of 2020; vaccine rollout and election disputes as symbolic markers.40:00 The Mayan Venus calendar and its eight-year cycle; 2020 as the true “end of the world.”45:00 Media manipulation, air-age metaphors, and digital vs. analog paradigms; the rise of new empires.50:00 Astrocartography and relocation charts; using place to understand personal missions.Key InsightsAstrology as a Temporal Framework: C.T. Lucero presents astrology not as mysticism but as a sophisticated calendar system rooted in observable planetary cycles. He compares astrological timekeeping to how we intuitively understand days of the week—Sunday indicating rest, Monday bringing activity—arguing that longer astrological cycles function similarly on broader scales.Historical Continuity and Translation: The episode traces astrology's lineage from Hellenistic Greece through Persian Baghdad and into modernity. Lucero highlights the massive translation efforts over the past 30 years, particularly by figures like Benjamin Dykes, which have recovered lost knowledge and corrected centuries of transcription errors, contributing to what he calls astrology's third golden age.Cultural and Linguistic Barriers to Knowledge: Lucero and Alsop discuss how language borders—historically with Latin and Greek, and now digitally with regional languages—have obscured access to valuable knowledge. This extends to old medical practices and astrology, which were often dismissed simply because their documentation wasn't widely accessible.Astrology vs. Scientism: Lucero critiques scientism for reducing prediction to material mechanisms while ignoring symbolic and cyclical insights that astrology offers. He stresses astrology's predictive power lies in pattern recognition and contextual interpretation, not in deterministic forecasts.Astrology and the Digital Age: AI and LLMs are starting to assist astrologers by generating interpretations and extracting planetary data, though Lucero points out that deep symbolic synthesis still exceeds AI's grasp. Specialized astrology AIs are emerging, built by domain experts for richer, more accurate analysis.Reevaluating Vedic and Mayan Systems: Lucero asserts that Western and Vedic astrology share a common origin, and even the Mayan Venus calendar may reflect the same underlying system. While the Indian tradition preserved techniques lost in the West, both traditions illuminate astrology's adaptive yet consistent core.2020 as a Historical Turning Point: According to Lucero, the Saturn-Jupiter conjunction of December 2020 marked the start of a 20-year societal cycle and the end of a Mayan Venus calendar “day.” He links this to transformative events like the vaccine rollout and U.S. election, framing them as catalysts for long-term shifts in trust, governance, and culture.
