Podcasts about Practical Magic

Join us as we take a closer look at one of the most fascinating and often overlooked members of the Owens family: Vincent Owens.Introduced in Alice Hoffman's The Rules of Magic and brought full circle in The Book of Magic, Vincent's story is one of grief, redemption, family, and the complicated ways love can shape a life. We explore his journey from a lonely exile living in France to the elder Owens who helps guide his family through one of their darkest chapters. Together we'll discuss Vincent's gift for finding lost things, his history with dangerous magic, his enduring love for William, and the emotional role he plays in breaking the Owens curse. We'll examine how Hoffman uses Vincent to explore themes of queer identity, chosen family, loss, forgiveness, and the courage it takes to return home after years spent running from the past. ✨

This week on Magnolia Street, we're diving deep into the woman who started it all: Maria Owens.From abandoned child, to healer, to accused witch, to the ancestral matriarch of the Owens bloodline, we trace Maria's journey across all four books in the Practical Magic series and unpack how one broken heart shaped generations of Owens women to come.We explore:• Maria's relationship with John Hathorne and the true origins of the curse• The emotional and symbolic meaning behind her sapphire necklace• The evolution of her legacy across Magic Lessons, The Rules of Magic, Practical Magic, and The Book of Magic• The grimoire, the black mirror, Magnolia Street, and the enduring symbolism of blue throughout the series• How Maria transformed from folklore and ghost story into one of the most emotionally tragic and misunderstood characters in the Owens universeWe also discuss the deeper themes Alice Hoffman weaves through Maria's story:inherited trauma, feminine power, forbidden knowledge, survival, grief, and whether the Owens curse was ever truly about magic at all… or simply fear disguised as protection.So light a candle, pour yourself something warm, and join us as we unravel the woman whose heartbreak haunted an entire bloodline.Because before Sally, before Gillian, before Jet and Franny…there was Maria Owens.SOCIALS:⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SourcesDISCLAIMER:The Magnolia Street Podcast intends to discuss the movie, “Practical Magic” in its entirety.

This New Moon in Taurus,  "Soul Worth is Your Core Essence".  This earth elemental  provides a grounding and steadying energy in the life creation process. It is where the “stick-to-it attitude can be seen. This zodiac sign embodies the concepts, ideas and values of creating and building something of worth with lasting value. Taurus is the focal point for bringing ideas into form.  Taurus is the complement to Scorpio, even while referred to as it's opposite sign in astrology discussions.  The basic relationship is that the 2nd house associated with Taurus, is where you begin to recognize your own valued self-possessed resources.  Scorpio, 8th house is how we exchange with others our valued resources, and they with us.  (See previous episode, "Full Moon in Scorpio). One of the key aspects of Taurus is its association with manifestation of physical possessions, and the flow of money as a measure of resources, usable talents, abilities, and skills for exchange. This is the time to reflect on creating both inner and outer heart-centered connections, which offer experiences of personal truth.  Instead of setting intentions from a place of being “not enough or good enough”now is the time to embrace your “Whole Self and Soul Worthiness”.Taurus is the opportunity to express deepest appreciation for being able to live life from Soul awareness. Living in the “Soul Worthiness” way is claiming the ability to be a creator with the Universal Source.  This New Moon in Taurus is an invitation to reshape your mind to create a meaningful, passionate life that will stand the test of time. The Taurus archetype is the awareness of the “spark” animating the physical body.   “I Manifest” principle. The Taurus energy is the nourishing of being through self worth.This New Moon in Taurus brings us into a profound awareness of being a part of Nature.  Of the three Earth signs, Capricorn and Virgo, Taurus brings us into relationship with our physicality.  Every person possesses a unique emanation and energetic life frequency.  When a person actually listens to one's body in cooperation with mind and heart, this comes together as a unique type of intelligence. How do we access our unique personal body intelligence and inner wisdom? Our bodies literally speak to us through the feeling states.  For example,  you get up in the morning and you notice the birdsong, and interestingly, listening to the birds feels calming to you. In fact, you notice your whole body feels rather relaxed. On the other hand, you are walking along on a city street, there are lots people whizzing by, as well as the sounds of heavy machinery drilling, earth moving machines rumbling, and diesel fuel smells are in the air.   Notice how your body sends you signals which are much different from the  relaxation of the birdsong.The sign of Taurus provide us with greater understanding of how our magnificent bodies serve as our central "anchoring" point.  The more we observe, listen and feel our own body-wise connection the more we can live greater heart-centered and Soul led lives.  In essence, we need body/mind/spirit awareness.  During this lunar cycle, the Taurus energy is providing an energetic framework for understanding how to ground and regulate our nervous systems, through tuning into the Earth's frequency.  Currently, on a daily basis millions of people are voicing their feelings about emotional, bodily, mental unrest and psycho-spiritual disconnection.  This New Moon is an invitation from the Universe to seek a quiet space from inside self.  Inevitably the question comes up, "how can I feel peaceful, and where is restfulness to be found? It's inside each one of us, and the guide to self understanding is through our bodies, as the gateways to heart-centered insights. Prosperity and Abundance through Self-WorthTaurus is a feminine and  fixed earth sign. Sound alchemy,  your voice is deeply associated with the sign of Taurus.  Singing, chanting, toning, humming, any sonic activity has a grounding effect, which helps to regulate the nervous system. Dancing, gardening, drumming and movement put us in alignment with our home planet, Earth.This sign represents the ability to create, produce and bring an idea into fruition.  In our astrological map, it's the area of life where a person will persist and eventually achieve success, as a result of embracing one's physical body wisdom, sensual and tactile connection. There's understanding of self-worth, sacred  valuing, and inner soul awareness.This sign is associated with the 2nd house on the zodiac wheel.  It embodies the talents, gifts, abilities, developed skills, resources, feelings of self-worth and self-esteem.  The guiding/ruling planet is Venus which provides the inner awareness of sight, smell, taste, touch, sound, as well as responses to expressions of beauty. The 2nd  house reveals how the core attributes mentioned above are manifested in form, especially through financial flow, lived-values, self worth, sensual pleasure, peace, harmony and the ability to relate to others in all kinds of relationships.The placement of Taurus in your “Star Chart”, is the area of life where you are learning to balance financial security, self-expression, self-worth and clarify how to embrace physical reality.  It is the overall “value center”.  It's important to fully recognize that your self-worth does not depend on what other people say, or tell you who you are, or are "suppose to be".The Following Prompts will help in learning how to use your astrology chart as a guide for connecting deeper with the Taurus energy that will help you be more present for yourself.New Moon in Taurus with Venus Rulership/guidanceJournal Prompts:Natal Venus sign and house placement, and sign on cusp of 2nd house?____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Describe 5 important valued self-resources(gifts, talents, skills, inner “treasures)                  Describe Self-Worth and Self-Care rituals that hold importance for you.  (Example: Gardening is often a really important nature and self-care connection for Taurus.)Claiming the Practical Magic of Taurus Touch, taste, smell, wind blowing, and to feel all the sensual pleasures.  In order for the growth process to occur, there has to be a life giving exchange between the Earth and the seed.

This week, we're unraveling the mystery of Amelia Bassano—a poet, court insider, and one of the first Englishwomen to publish her work… who some believe may be connected to the writings of William Shakespeare.Was she the “Dark Lady” of the sonnets? A muse? Or something more—a voice hidden behind one of the most famous names in history?With special guest Mallory Trunnell of Crimson Calamity, we explore Shakespeare authorship theories, poetic parallels, and the broader history of women whose contributions were erased or reassigned—also known as the Matilda effect.We also step into the world of The Book of Magic, where Alice Hoffman reimagines Bassano as part of the Owens lineage, weaving her into the magical history through a fictional grimoire known as The Book of the Raven—a text that preserves women's knowledge, power, and stories across generations.Because sometimes, the most powerful stories are the ones history tried to forget…and sometimes, they're the ones that refuse to stay buried.SOCIALS:⁠⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SourcesDISCLAIMER:The Magnolia Street Podcast intends to discuss the movie, “Practical Magic” in its entirety.

Episode 282In this podcast, New York Times best-selling author and astrologer Chani Nicholas discusses the astrology of the week and what it might mean for us all.The astrology of the week of May 11th, 2026, brings clarity and a little chaos. Mercury's sextile to Jupiter helps us get practical and precise in our communications, and the Mercury cazimi offers an extra boost of insight. But when Mars runs into Chiron, our hurts get highlighted. And with the New Moon in Taurus sitting next to Algol (the fixed star associated with rage and betrayal), we're called to honor our anger if we want to reclaim our power. Then, when Mercury moves into Gemini and meets up with Uranus, our wit and wild ideas get a jolt of high-voltage energy. So get clear on the things that need your attention and your honesty before Gemini season dials up the distractions.This episode covers:Mercury's sextile to Jupiter on Tuesday, May 12thThe Mercury cazimi on Thursday, May 14thMars' conjunction with Chiron on Saturday, May 16thThe New Moon in Taurus on Saturday, May 16thMercury's entrance into Gemini on Sunday, May 17thMercury's conjunction with Uranus on Sunday, May 17thThis episode was recorded on 05/04/2026.For more, check out your free daily horoscope on the homepage of the CHANI app — now on iOS and Android.The music featured in the podcast was created by Latashá.

Come step inside one of the most iconic spaces in the beloved film, Practical Magic!In this installment of the Witches Garden Series, we're exploring the Owens family conservatory, or greenhouse as it really is, a space that feels equal parts magical and deeply rooted in real horticultural design. We learn firsthand from the head of Practical Magic Art Department, Stephen Alesch just what went into this masterpiece that has every witch's mouth watering.From its curved glass roof and leaded panes to the working potting stations, drying herbs, and candle making setups, this isn't just a beautiful set. It's a fully realized environment shaped by centuries of greenhouse history.We take a closer look at how this space functions, what materials and details ground it in reality, and how its design connects back to historic glasshouses like those at the Chelsea Physic Garden.Along the way, we break down the layout, the tools, the textures, and even the more ritualistic elements, like the doves kept for spellwork, to understand how this space sits between practicality and enchantment.SOCIALS:⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SourcesDISCLAIMER:The Magnolia Street Podcast intends to discuss the movie, “Practical Magic” in its entirety.

You're listening to Amma Mia podcast. Good morning, angels. I hope you are absolutely glowing today because we have a cracker of an episode. I'm Axe London and there's so much going on. Shoud we just get into it. Let's just buddy, we'll get into it today. Hayden Panachier has come out, Kesha has been wearing something around her neck that makes me feel a little woozy. Justin Baldoni has something to say about the Black Lively settlement, and a huge update from the world of TV and movies was some exciting new projects just announced. So watch you wait for bebe Let's Possum tea first up. Hayden Panachier, best known for Heroes, Nashville and screen Franchise, has come out as bisexual at thirty six, ahead of the release of her memoir This is Me A Reckoning on May twelve. She told Us Weekly, now that I know this book is coming out and I've chosen to share it with the world, I'm comfortable to confidently say that, yes, I'm bisexual. 01:04Speaker 2 I said it. 01:05Speaker 1 That's the first time I got to say it out loud. She explained why it took so long with such clarity. She said it was never the right time. First she was too young and forced to be perfect at all times. Then came the period where people saw women coming out as bisexual as a fad, and she was terrified of being accused of jumping on a bandwagon. She also shared that she's dated women beginning from a very young age with a constant presence of paparazzi. Meant she never felt she could fully emotionally invest because here she did fall in love. That wasn't something that she wanted to ever have to hide. Well, he's to live in your truth, babe, Get a girl next time. My queen Kesha has made an interesting admission about a delightful piece of jewelry she's been choosing to wear around her neck. I mean, we look at the met gala where seeing the rock wearing a five point five million dollar watch. Half a million dollars were the pearls and other ladies and Kesha's guard, Nah, I've got something better at home, my plus center. 01:56Speaker 2 So your placenta supposedly gives you seconds, helps open your third eye, according to my mother. So she stuck it in the oven. She put it in a box, and she found it when I was like twenty one years old in the basement. Wait, she had to like fight for my placenta, my mom. They tried to take my placenta away from her at the hospital and she like fucking threw a conniption fit, and she fought for it. She fought for that. So now I carry it around. She put it in the oven, strapped it up in a box, stuck it in the basement. We found it, Throw it in the blender, pop it in a necklace work art. 02:42Speaker 1 A quick update on the Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni situation, because there's been a slight development overnight. Yesterday we reported that two head settled with no money changing hands and no apology from Baldoni. Now he's a lawyer. Brian Friedman has spoken to the press and the words he used were very deliberate. Of course, he said, I can't talk about the term of the settlement, but what I can tell you is that he is ecstatic. That both Jamie and Justin are ecstatic at the result of this and the settlement itself. They are very pleased with how this has ended up. Friedman also made the point that by the time settlement discussions began, Baldoni himself was no longer even a party to the case. Ten of the thirteen claims had been thrown out, and the remaining claims were against Wayfair Studios and its PR team, not Baldoni personally. He said, you're looking at this settlement as a winner or a loss. I think he just looks at it as a logical ending to a case is already out of Frankly, stick around. A TV and movie update awaits on the other side, from White Lotus to Hocus Pokis and Harry Potter. Welcome back to Morning to You, where I've got a stack of news about upcoming movies and TV shows, and we'll kick things off with the White Lotus as we're getting more and more information about what specifically caused the difference of opinions which led to Helena Bonham Carter quitting the show. According to Variety, the created differences came down to Mike White demanding a oysterous performance from her role of a washed up start chasing a Hollywood comeback bottom. Carter reportedly didn't want to deliver that what specifically was asked that she felt she couldn't give. I had many many questions they may never get answered. The door remains open for a future season. Apparently we live in hope. HBO has officially renewed it's Harry Potter series for season two before season one has even aired, which tells me one thing as Gond be good. Season one at Philosopher's Stone, Premier's Christmas Day twenty twenty six, I hope my family aren't expecting me to spend any time with them that day. Season two will adapt Chamber of Secrets and begins filming this autumn. John Brown, a writer from Succession, has been promoted to co showrunner for season two, joining current show run at Francesca Gardner. His quote on the news seems you're never too old to get your invitation to hog Quarts. I'm already sold obviously. And finally, hocus Pogus IIE is officially in early development at Disney Live Action Studios at all three Sanders Sisters, Sanders Sisters, Back, Vet Middler, Sarah, Desic Parker, and Kakinademia all confirmed to reprise their roles, and unlike Hocus Pocos two, which went straight to streaming, there are plans for a theatrical release this time and I will be in the cinema in full witch costume. I love this movie so much. Practical Magic two and Hocus Pocos three, What a time to be Witchie. And that, my Sweet Angels, is all I've got time for today. I hope you enjoyed your short hit up entertainment news for your Thursday morning. I'll be back on Monday with more of the good stuff, and in the meantime, make sure you check back in around three pm for the spill Digtive and Mass London. Your host executive producer is Minitius Warren and we're back next week. 05:37Speaker 2 Bye, Mamma Mia acknowledges the traditional owners of the land.

The studio is a little less organized and a lot more chaotic tonight! With Intern Manager/Managing Intern Amy taking a well-deserved night off, the Dastardly Dudes—Hosts Eddie and Spencer—are rolling solo. This week, the boys are venturing into the Blumhouse vaults to tackle a horror flick that has left them scratching their heads in the best, and most confusing, way possible: Lee Cronin's The Mummy. Before the guys start deciphering hieroglyphics, they sift through the glorious, trailer-filled aftermath of last week's CinemaCon. With the floodgates officially open, Eddie and Spencer break down the newly dropped footage that has them the most hyped. They prepare for midnight margaritas with the reveal of Practical Magic 2 and celebrate the absolute cinematic justice of finally seeing footage for the infamous, long-vaulted Coyote vs. Acme. Once the trailer hype settles, the dudes descend into the tomb to review The Mummy. But there is one massive, glaring problem: is this actually a mummy movie? Eddie and Spencer unpack the bizarre identity crisis of a film that boasts a rock-solid narrative, genuinely fantastic practical effects, and incredibly strong performances from its child actors, yet feels entirely disconnected from its own name. The crew postulates how a movie can be this good, yet have its title hang around its neck like a giant, cursed albatross, skewing all expectations. Is it a hidden horror gem, or just a victim of terrible branding? Grab your flashlights and leave your Book of the Dead at home—it's time to get confused!

This week on Magnolia Street, we step into the electric, untamed world of 1960s Greenwich Village.Inspired by Alice Hoffman's playlist for The Rules of Magic, we explore how music became a portal into identity, power, and transformation; from Bob Dylan's protest anthems to Jimi Hendrix's psychedelic fire and Nina Simone's spellbinding voice.We wander through Washington Square Park and descend into the Village's shadowy nightlife! From the Red Witch to the Zodiac Club in Bell, Book and Candle, we explore how these spaces invited freedom, danger, and transformation. We unpack what inspired Vincent's introduction into the Owens story, trace the cultural shifts of the era, including the Stonewall riots and the rise of LGBTQ+ movements and follow the lingering ghosts of New York City.We stop at 44 Greenwich Avenue, the aunts' magick shop and the real-life office of Alice's beloved agent, the late Elaine Markson, exploring its history and Hoffman's tribute to her. We also dive into 1960s witchcraft culture; from Leo Martello to Spiritualist gatherings at the The Ansonia, and examine how media shaped the modern witch, drawing parallels between Bell, Book and Candle's Gillian Holroyd and Practical Magic's Gillian Owens.And in a more personal turn, Justina takes us through the Village venues mentioned in the book, sharing glimpses of her own early music career as a young troubadour navigating the Greenwich Village songwriter circuit, blurring the line between past and present, fiction and lived experience.Because in The Village, magic isn't always spells and potions…sometimes it's following the ghosts of Greenwich back through time to find the songs where they began.SOCIALS:⁠⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SourcesDISCLAIMER:The Magnolia Street Podcast is for entertainment and informational purposes and should not be used as a substitute for professional or medical advice.

On this episode of Magnolia Street, we're taking a closer look at Jimmy Angelov's 1970 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme—one of the most iconic objects in Practical Magic. What does Jimmy's sleek car say about his personality, and what might the messy interior reveal about who he really is beneath the surface?We explore how the car appears in both the book and the film, why the script originally gave Jimmy an '82 Oldsmobile before switching to the 1970 Cutlass, and whether Jimmy could realistically have afforded a car like this in the first place. We also investigate his Arizona license plate, take a detour through the rise and fall of the Oldsmobile brand, and even connect Jimmy's car to The Chariot card in the Tarot.Plus, Kristina uncovers something in the scripts that sends the Stinas tumbling back down the ferry rabbit hole—and we do the math to figure out how long it would actually take Gillian to drive from Arizona to Maria's Island if Jimmy's Cutlass was going as fast as it could go.

Freshly waking from the nightmare of Watchmen: The Ultimate Cut, the Afterthoughts crew is back with a more grounded, less rant-filled Recommend or Refute. Join John, Dixon, and Ryan as they try to push the trauma of Zack Snyder's vision from their mind's eye with some more digestible cinematic offerings.

In this shadow steeped episode, we descend into the dangerous garden of the Owens family grimoire to uncover the true power of henbane, the mysterious nightshade listed in the resurrection spell in Practical Magic.If belladonna is the poison that killed Jimmy, why would the spell to bring him back contain even more nightshade?We explore the folklore and pharmacology of henbane, mandrake, and belladonna, the infamous trio of “flying ointment” plants historically associated with witches, trance states, necromancy, and crossing the veil between life and death. Rather than healing herbs, these are threshold plants, botanicals that govern liminal spaces, altered states, and dangerous transformation.We break down the symbolic logic of using poison to attempt resurrection, the folk magic principle of “like calls to like,” and why dark magic in the Owens lineage requires dark tools.From graveyard lore to tarot archetypes, this episode asks:Is nightshade about death or about crossing?Enter the garden at your own risk.SOCIALS:⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SourcesDISCLAIMER:The Magnolia Street Podcast intends to discuss the movie, “Practical Magic” in its entirety.

In this episode of the Magnolia Street Podcast, we explore the curious little letter that has sparked big conversations in the witchcraft community. Why do some practitioners spell it Magick with a K? Where did that come from, and what does it actually mean? Is it simply aesthetic, or does it signal something deeper and more intentional?We trace the history of the spelling back to early twentieth century occultism and unpack how it became a way to distinguish ritual and spiritual practice from stage illusion and sleight of hand. From ceremonial circles to top hats and playing cards, we look at the cultural fork in the road between occult magick and theatrical magic.We also reflect on why beloved works like Practical Magic are spelled without the K, and what that choice communicates about intuition, inheritance, and lived enchantment. Does adding the K make something feel more powerful? More serious? More exclusive? Or is everyday magic just as potent without it?As always, we bring the conversation back to storytelling, symbolism, and the way language shapes belief. Whether you are drawn to candles and grimoires or velvet curtains and rabbits in hats, this episode invites you to consider what kind of magic you practice and why one little letter can carry so much meaning.Light a candle, shuffle a deck, and step into the conversation with us. ✨SOCIALS:⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠MUSIC ATTRIBTION:Call to Adventure - Comedy by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Source: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1300022Artist: http://incompetech.com/DISCLAIMER:The Magnolia Street Podcast intends to discuss the movie, “Practical Magic” in its entirety.

In this episode, we explore psychedelics within the Practical Magic universe and beyond. From the unsettling consequences of jimsonweed and LSD in Practical Magic and Rules of Magic, to the cautionary presence of belladonna in Magic Lessons, we trace how altered states appear in the Owens family story — not as shortcuts to power, but as moments of vulnerability, danger, and exposure.From there, we widen the lens. We take a grounded look at the ritual use of psychoactive substances across cultures, including ayahuasca in the Amazon, peyote in Native American ceremonies, psilocybin mushrooms in Mazatec veladas, San Pedro in the Andes, and iboga in Bwiti initiation rites. What are these substances? What effects do they produce? And how are they used within structured spiritual frameworks meant to guide, contain, and interpret the experience?SOCIALS:⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠DISCLAIMER:The Magnolia Street Podcast intends to discuss the movie, “Practical Magic” in its entirety.

This week, we're cracking open the OWENS SPELL BOOK and stepping back into the nineteenth century to explore the Arts and Crafts Movement and the world that shaped the work of illustrator Walter Crane. From socialism and handcraft to flowers, folklore, and beauty as a moral act, we trace how Crane's work in Flora's Feast found its way into the Practical Magic Book of Shadows. What looks whimsical at first glance carries deeper meaning about labor, legacy, and the magic of everyday life.SOCIALS:⁠Link Tree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERO SOURCES DISCLAIMER:The Magnolia Street Podcast intends to discuss the movie, “Practical Magic” in its entirety.
