*Note: This is the Free Content version of my interview with Veronica French. To access the entire episode, please consider becoming a Tier 2 'Groves of Orpheus' member on Patreon, or you can purchase this episode for a one-time fee. My guest this month is Veronica French. Veronica has an MA in Religious Studies from the University of Erfurt, Germany. She specializes in the study of modern shamanism, anthropology of religion and gender studies. Her master's thesis explored how modern shamans living in Germany define a “shaman way” and their turning point or crisis, which informs their “shamanic journey.” Her undergraduate work was in medical anthropology with a focus on shamanic techniques and Chinese 5 Element, in which she explored the scholar/practitioner position. She presented previously at the 8th Biannual Conference of the European Society for the Study of Western Esotericism (ESSWE) with the paper “Performative Strategies of Creative Esotericism in 19th Century Jewish Communities” (Cork, Ireland, 2022); XXXI International Summer School on Religion Women and Religions with the paper “Modern Shamanism, Empowerment and Green Religion: Contemporary Shamanic Practice in Germany” (San Gimignano, Italy, 2024); and the International Theosophical History Conference 2024 with the paper “Modern Shamanism, Theosophy and Ecological Spirituality: Connecting Nature Spiritualities” (Ascona, Switzerland, 2024). Veronica also presented at three seminars at the University of Erfurt: “Initial Shamanic Interviews” University of Erfurt, Master's Thesis Colloquium (2023); “Green Religion and Indigeneity in Popular Media,”University of Erfurt, Green Religion? Answers to Climate Change from the Perspective of Religious Studies (2023); and “Ethnographic Work of Shamanic Practice in Eastern Germany,” University of Erfurt, Master's Writing Seminar (2023).In this discussion, Veronica shares her background and inspiration for her research into modern shamanism. We talk a bit about the terms shamanism and animism, as these are somewhat contested within academia, and Veronica shares how she is using these terms in her work. She explains what questions she was asking at the outset of her project, and also the surprising additions that arose once she started interviewing her participants. Veronica also notes the interesting data that she gathered regarding topics such as gender, identity, “lived religion,” and ecology. As Veronica has her own experience within the concept known as a the holistic milieu (referring to a broad and diverse spiritual landscape that encompasses various New Age and alternative spiritual practices; often contrasted with traditional religious institutions, as it focuses on personal spirituality, self-development, and holistic well-being rather than formal doctrines or organized worship), she found she was able to relate well to the experiences of her participants, and this aspect has led her to consider continuing her research using the method known as autoethnography. This is a qualitative research method that combines autobiographical storytelling with ethnographic analysis. It allows researchers to use their personal experiences to explore and critique cultural beliefs, practices, and social phenomena. Veronica talks about other scholars in the field who have been using this method, and how it is becoming more accepted within academia. If anyone has any questions or comments for Veronica, please post them here or contact me via email and I can pass these on to her. She welcomes further feedback and discussion! Veronica was also very kind to share some references for futher reading; please see this below.

Welcome to this episode of the Two Scaredy Cats! This week we are talking about Ireland and some of the creatures that can be found here. We will be talking about two particular creatures that roam the Irish country side, one Irish Werewolves and the second is the Puca! Irish werewolves are different than other supernatural wolves in that their human form and wolf are two separate beings. If you kill the wolf form then the human form will also die. In Ireland Irish werewolves are not considered evil but are seen as protectors of communities. It is believed that they would use their powers to defend family and loved ones from harm.We are also talking about the Puca which is a shape shifting trickster creature that has no fixed form but likes to be seen as a horse or goat. It is said to hunt for lonely travels on lonely country roads, fields, and mt. passes at night.Remember curiosity didn't kill these Two Scaredy Cats!Don't forget to like and follow us on Instagram!Support the showThanks for listening and follow us on Instagram @twoscaredycatspodcast

ANGELA'S SYMPOSIUM 📖 Academic Study on Witchcraft, Paganism, esotericism, magick and the Occult
What differentiates honest syncretism from dishonest syncretism in spiritual traditions? How do new elements like "Ascended Masters" influence the integrity of traditional practices like Segnature? What ethical considerations should be made when integrating new beliefs into established traditions? Dr. Puca's exploration offers an academic yet accessible analysis, ideal for those interested in religious studies, cultural anthropology, and the evolution of magical practices. Dr. Angela Puca delves into the intricate world of syncretism within religious and esoteric practices, using her fieldwork in the Italian folk magic tradition of Segnature as a primary case study.

Dr Angela Puca engages in a dialogue with the practitioner Marcus Mattern, to offer an in-depth exploration of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, a seminal organisation in the history of Western esotericism. The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, established in the late 19th century, stands as a pivotal institution in the development of modern Western magical practices. It emerged as a unique confluence of various esoteric traditions, including Rosicrucianism, Freemasonry, Theosophy, Kabbalah, and Hermeticism. These traditions heavily influenced the Order's structure and teachings, and it played a crucial role in reviving and synthesising ancient and medieval esoteric knowledge. In this episode, Dr Puca and Marcus Mattern will delve into the foundational aspects of the Golden Dawn, examining its historical emergence, key figures, and the diverse influences that shaped its practices. The discussion will likely cover the Order's intricate system of grades, its ritualistic framework, and the symbolic language that underpins its teachings. Furthermore, the conversation will extend to the impact of the Golden Dawn on contemporary esoteric and magical practices. This includes its influence on later movements and figures within the 20th-century occult landscape, such as Aleister Crowley and Dion Fortune, and its ongoing relevance in modern Pagan and magical communities. ABOUT OUR GUEST Marcus Mattern has been building the occult community for years with his course on the Sacred Science of Magick, monthly Archangel Sigils, Spiritual Alchemy, and lessons on hermetic philosophy. Marcus runs one of the most engaged and supportive groups of practitioners on Facebook, with over ten thousand magicians and weekly ritual meetings. His ability to explain esoteric concepts in simple, practical terms and his skill in delivering guided rituals has earned him a dedicated following.

This month, I've got the joy of introducing you to Dr Angela Puca, who holds a bachelor's and a master's degree in philosophy. In 2021, The University of Leeds awarded her a PhD in Religious Studies, which will soon be published with Brill. Her research focuses on magic, witchcraft, Paganism, esotericism, shamanism, and related currents. Author of several peer-reviewed publications and co-editor of the forthcoming ‘Pagan Religions in five Minutes' for Equinox, she hopes to bridge the gap between academia and the communities of magic practitioners by delivering related scholarly content on her YouTube Channel and TikTok ‘Angela's Symposium' - https://www.youtube.com/c/AngelasSymposium Find Angela on Instagram and TikTok at @drangelapuca or on X at @AngelaPuca11. In this interview, we chat about magic from an academic perspective, what Italian folk magic is, and the thorny debate about whether religion and magic are the same thing!

ANGELA'S SYMPOSIUM 📖 Academic Study on Witchcraft, Paganism, esotericism, magick and the Occult
Guest Lecture for University College Cork's Research Seminar Series Dr Angela Puca: Folk Witchcraft or Indigenous Shamanism - Understanding Vernacular Magic Practices Shamanism has been defined in different ways by scholars over the years. Among practitioners in Italy, the most common references are Mircea Eliade and his view of shamanism as a set of ecstatic techniques and Michael Harner's idea of the shaman as a person who journeys to non-ordinary realities to gain power and knowledge. Four years of fieldwork in Italy conducted as part of a wider doctoral project on indigenous and trans-cultural shamanism in Italy have challenged the conceptualization of shamanism and the field of application of the term ‘indigenous' as soon as I encountered and included the folk magic tradition of the Segnature. Based on participant observation and interviews with practitioners, I will present the tradition of Italian vernacular healers and how it relates, challenges, yet still appears to comply with a form of indigenous shamanism. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kS6Q0xD_CA CONNECT & SUPPORT

The term Paganism is used today (for the most part) to refer to contemporary religious and spiritual traditions which take their influences from historically pre-Christian beliefs. While many of these are fairly different from each other, there are some distinctions which these sorts of Paganism all seem to share for the most part. Many are Polytheist, see spirit and the sacred as being imminent, and hold the natural world in high regard. Taking us through some of the broader strokes of contemporary Paganism is the scholar of Magic, Witchcraft, and Paganism- Dr. Angela Puca!
