Dúirt na póilíní gur dócha gurbh é gnólacht tógála "faillíoch go mór" a bhí ag úsáid ábhar neamhshábháilte ba chúis leis an tine. Agus Hong Cong ag streachailt leis an tine is measa sa chathair le breis agus 60 bliain, tá na céadta de chónaitheoirí an réigiúin tar éis obair dheonach a dhéanamh chun cabhrú leis na híospartaigh easáitithe.

Tuigtear go raibh Hogg ina seascaidí, ach níor nocht sí a haois go poiblí riamh. Níor tugadh cúis an bháis ach oiread, ach dúirt a teaghlach gur mian leo "buíochas a ghabháil le foireann uile Ospís Naomh Seosamh, Hacnaí as an tacaíocht álainn a thug siad do Pamela ina laethanta deiridh".

On today's episode I am joined by Brianna — known online as The Grey Witch — a Romany witch whose craft is rooted deeply in old-world folk magic, land-based practice, and ancestral tradition. Brianna is one of the most authentic witches I have ever had the honour of speaking with. Her connection to the land is fierce and lifelong, and she approaches every aspect of her craft with honesty, integrity and devotion. She does not shy away from difficult conversations, and her willingness to share even a glimpse into her lineage feels incredibly sacred. We begin by exploring how Brianna was taught witchcraft through her family line, including traditional fortune-telling methods passed down through generations. She speaks about crystal ball reading, divination with playing cards, and the ways her ancestors taught her to see, sense and interpret signs. Brianna also shares stories of how she has supported her community — helping farmers with their crops, performing spellwork for those seeking guidance, and calling upon her spiritual court, including a powerful spirit known as The Rider, who she describes in depth. One of my favourite parts of this conversation was hearing how she works with the sickle as a magical tool, both symbolically and practically. We also explore Brianna's use of animal remains within her craft — a topic she approaches with complete reverence. She works only with animals already sacrificed for food, honouring every part of their body in accordance with ancestral custom. Nothing is taken lightly. Nothing is wasted. Her approach reflects a form of witchcraft that is deeply rooted in reciprocity and respect, far removed from modern farming systems and very aligned with how our ancestors lived in relationship with the land. Another fascinating thread in this episode is how Brianna weaves her Catholic faith through her folk magic. She speaks about saints, spirits and symbols with the same natural ease that many witches speak about herbs or lunar phases. Her practice mirrors the syncretic paths of many folk practitioners throughout history — blending spiritual frameworks with land magic, lineage and personal devotion. Romany witchcraft is a deeply closed and protected practice, and I am profoundly grateful that Brianna chose to share what she could with us. Her openness, wisdom and trust make this a rare and incredibly special conversation. If you would like to explore her work further, please do check out her website and social platforms. She also has a folk magic course coming in 2026 for those who feel called to learn from her.

This month we turn our gaze upward toward the radiant realms of the Angels. Angels are not bound by religion. They are frequencies of divine intelligence — messengers of light, guardians of the heart, and allies in both healing and manifestation. Their presence reminds us that even in darkness, light is always near. Throughout November, we will be working with the Angelic Current — inviting clarity, protection and peace into our energy fields as we prepare for winter's stillness. Expect soft golds, feathers, candlelight and celestial calm as we weave witchcraft with higher guidance. This is a month of softening, listening, and remembering that you are always held in light. Let the angels speak through your intuition, your dreams, and your everyday magic. This month includes – A deep exploration of the Angelic Realm and how witches can work with angels outside of dogma Guided meditation to meet your Guardian Angel Magick and teachings on the seven Archangels Journal prompts to discover your guiding angel Angelic healing practices for aura cleansing and energy renewal A ritual for Angelic Manifestation and opening to miracles A tarot spread for divine guidance A soft celestial-inspired printable poster for your altar or journal By the end of November, you will have – A clear understanding of angelic energies and how to work with them as a witch A strengthened connection with your Guardian Angel Practices for angelic healing, protection and peace Tools for divine manifestation and intuitive guidance A deeper sense of being supported, guided and held as winter approaches Join me for November's journey – https://patreon.com/TheHedgeandHollow?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink As winter's quiet deepens, our November circle invites us to rise into the light. This gathering centres on angelic connection and higher guidance. Together we will step into the frequency of divine love, exploring how angels and luminous beings communicate through intuition, signs and energy. What to expect – Energy Cleansing and Light Activation — a guided journey to release the residue of the year and awaken your inner radiance, calling upon Michael for protection and Raphael for healing Channelled Journaling — messages of peace, purpose and hope from your angels or higher self Divination — a shared card pull to receive angelic insight for the season ahead Closing in Light — sealing your energy in protection and anchoring the peace of angelic presence within your aura Access through The Witches Who Run With The Wolves tier.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an dara lá is fiche de mhí na Sahmna. Is mise Sibéal Dempsey.Vótáil comhairle slándála na Náisiún Aontaithe i bhfabhar rún a thacaíonn le plean Donald Trump do Gaza. Tá roinnt gnéithe sa phlean, lena n-áirítear bunú Fórsa Cobhsaíochta Idirnáisiúnta, a bhfuil roinnt tíortha gan ainm tar éis tairiscint a bheith páirteach ann. Seachas an Rúis agus an tSín, a staon ón vóta, vótáil na tíortha eile go léir i bhfabhar an rúin. Dhiúltaigh Hamas dó, áfach, iad ag rá go gcruthaíonn sé páirtí eile sa choinbhleacht agus go bhforchuireann sé caomhnóireacht ar Stráice Gaza. Cruthaíodh comhlacht ar a dtugtar an Bord Síochána freisin, a bhfuil sé de chúram air maoirseacht a dhéanamh ar atógáil Gaza agus ar sheachadadh cabhrach daonnúla. Dúirt Trump gur “stairiúil” vóta na Comhairle Slándála agus meastar go mbeidh sé ina chathaoirleach ar an mBord Síochána.Chonacthas long spiaireachta Rúiseach amach ó chósta na hAlban an tseachtain seo, agus í ar a bealach i dtreo uiscí atá faoi smacht na hÉireann, agus geallann an Ríocht Aontaithe freagairt mhíleata dá n-aistreodh sí níos faide ó dheas. Is cosúil go bhfuil an long, ar a dtugtar an Yantar, in ann cur isteach ar cháblaí fomhuirí. Chonacthas an long ag seoladh síos Muir Éireann roimhe seo freisin, nuair a bhí long chabhlaigh agus aerárthach Éireannach á leanúint. Meastar an uair seo mar ardú céime, áfach, mar a fuarthas amach go raibh an long ag díriú léasair ar phíolótaí RAF a seoladh chun faireachas a dhéanamh. Ar an láimh eile, tá ambasáid na Rúise sa Ríocht Aontaithe tar éis cúiseamh a thabhairt do rialtas na Breataine as histéire mhíleata a chothú.Tá an tionscal ceoil ag agóidíocht níos mó i gcoinne na hintleachta saorga de réir mar a mhéadaíonn a húsáid sna meáin phríomhshrutha. Shroich rian na hintleachta saorga, walk my walk, uimhir a haon i gcairt díolacháin dhigiteacha fógraí sna Stáit Aontaithe. Fuair an t-ardán sruthaithe Deezer amach freisin go ngineann an intleacht shaorga thart ar tríocha a ceathair faoin gcéad d'uaslódálacha laethúla. Tá Paul McCartney ar dhuine de na ceoltóirí is déanaí atá ag teacht amach i mbun agóide agus rian beagnach go hiomlán ciúin eisithe aige. Tá sé seo mar chuid d'fheachtas níos leithne chun cosc a chur ar algartaim a oiliúint ar cheol atá ann cheana féin gan aon dleachtanna a íoc. I measc na gceoltóirí eile atá páirteach cheana féin tá Kate Bush agus na Pet Shop Boys.*Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain.

In today's episode I'm joined by the incredible Kurtis Lee Thomas, Founder of the Breathwork Detox modality — a transformative breathwork system that's been featured on The Today Show and used by some of the world's biggest organisations. Kurtis has brought his breathwork method into spaces like Nike, NASA, Fortune 500 companies, elite athletic teams and a long list of celebrities and high-performers. His work speaks for itself — the impact, the results, and the rapid transformation this modality creates are truly remarkable. In this conversation we explore - What breathwork actually is beyond the buzzword. The somatic, emotional and energetic logic behind Breathwork Detox. How one session can trigger release, clarity and nervous system reset. Why organisations like Nike and NASA are turning to breathwork for performance, focus and stress management. The deeper spiritual and alchemical dimensions of using breath as a tool for healing and awakening. Kurtis's personal journey into this work — and what breath can reveal when we learn to listen. If you are someone who loves embodiment, energy work, somatic healing or the deeper layers of consciousness — this episode is pure medicine. This is breathwork as alchemy, breathwork as initiation, breathwork as transformation.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an cúigiú lá déag de mhí na Samhna. Is mise Niall Ó Siadhail.Insealbhaíodh Catherine Connolly mar Uachtarán na hÉireann Dé Máirt, ag searmanas i Halla Naomh Pádráig taobh istigh de Chaisleán Bhaile Átha Cliath. Bhí gaolta agus cairde an Uachtaráin nua i láthair, chomh maith le ceannairí polaitiúla na hÉireann agus an triúr iarUachtarán a mhaireann, Mary Robinson, Mary McAleese agus Micheál D. Ó hUiginn. Cuireadh tús leis an ócáid le beannachtaí ó cheannairí na gcreideamh éagsúil sa tír agus ansin thug Connolly an mionn oifige as Gaeilge agus as Béarla. Ina hóráid luaigh sí na téamaí is tábhachtaí di ina téarma mar Uachtarán: an tsíocháin, neodracht na hÉireann, an ghéarchéim aeráide agus ról na Gaeilge i saol na hÉireann. Is í Connolly an deichiú hUachtarán i stair an stáit agus an tríú bean sa ról. Tá grúpa agóideoirí bundúchasacha i ndiaidh imshuí a chur ar an bhealach isteach go Comhdháil na bPáirtithe nó COP30, imeacht atá ar siúl in Belém i dtuaisceart na Brasaíle faoi láthair. Tá an lucht agóide ag iarraidh ar rialtas na Brasaíle stop láithreach a chur leis na tionscadail forbartha ar fad atá ag tarlú san Amasóin, lena n-áirítear mianadóireacht, lománaíocht, druileáil ola agus tógáil iarnróid nua. Cé go bhfuil an dífhoraoisiú tite 50% le trí bliana anuas, tá an tUachtarán Lula ag brath ar thacaíocht earnáil na talmhaíochta agus cáineadh é as neamhaird a thabhairt ar fhadhbanna móra a bhaineann leis an athrú aeráide.Bhí bua stairiúil ag foireann sacair na hÉireann oíche Déardaoin nuair a bhuaigh siad ar an Phortaingéil a dó a náid i Staid Aviva, toradh a tháinig aniar aduaidh ar lucht leanúna agus lucht anailíse sacair araon. Fuair Troy Parrott as Baile Átha Cliath dhá chúl sa chéad leath agus ansin sa dara leath tugadh cárta dearg do Cristiano Ronaldo, an chéad chárta dearg dá ghairm idirnáisiúnta i ndiaidh 226 cluiche. Bua mór a bhí ann do bhainisteoir fhoireann na hÉireann Heimir Hallgrímsson fosta. Bhí an tÍoslannach faoi bhrú i ndiaidh drochthorthaí go luath san fheachtas seo, lena n-áirítear cluiche a cailleadh i gcoinne na hAirméine. Ní thig leis na himreoirí ceiliúradh a dhéanamh go fóill, áfach. Le deis a bheith acu áit a bhaint amach i gCorn an Domhain i Meiriceá Thuaidh an bhliain seo chugainn, caithfidh siad an bua a fháil in aghaidh na hUngáire Dé Domhnaigh, cluiche a bheidh an-doiligh ar fad.*Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain.

It feels like just a moment ago that we were ushering in Samhain, and now Christmas and Yule are a mere 6 weeks away. For some, this time of year is steeped in excitement and gratitude, for others it's cloaked with stress and anxiety. What if we could shape our holiday narrative by acknowledging what really matters to us this season? Rather than getting caught up in the traditions and expectations of years passed, what if we first asked ourselves, “What has this past year been like for me?”. From this place of knowing, we can determine if we need rest… celebration… gathering… solitude. Maybe what we need is to remember the beauty of a slow, soulful, simple holiday.

Ivy, Winter Witchcraft & The Discipline Spell In this month's November Witchcraft episode, we wander into the winding, enchanted world of ivy — a plant steeped in folklore, protection magic, and ancient symbolism. We explore its historical associations, its role as a guardian of thresholds and the many ways witches can weave ivy into their craft with intention and safety. From there, we move into the heart of herbal magic, looking at how to use herb blends in spellwork, ritual, energy cleansing, and winter-focused practices. Next we descend into the witch's winter arc, exploring why the darker months naturally call us into commitment, devotion and inner alchemy. We discuss the role of discipline as a spell, and how neuroplasticity supports your magical practice. We take a closer look at the anterior mid-cingulate cortex — a brain region connected to motivation, persistence, emotional regulation and the ability to choose discomfort for long-term transformation — revealing how science supports what witches have always known - Winter is for recalibration, rewiring, and rising. We finish the episode with a Ritual for Sacred Discipline, crafted to help you anchor devotion, strengthen your energetic sovereignty, and align your daily life with the witch you are becoming. In This Episode We Explore - Ivy in Witchcraft Ivy's folklore across Ireland, Britain, and classical mythology Its symbolism as a protector, a guardian of thresholds, and a guide to hidden realms Why ivy was associated with divine ecstasy, wildness, caves, doorways, and the Otherworld How to safely and respectfully use ivy in modern witchcraft Energetic workings you can pair with ivy (protection, binding, devotion, portal magic) Different ways of working With herb blends The Witch's Winter Arc Understanding winter as a magical recalibration season Why November–February is the perfect window for discipline, devotion, and deep inner change How nature's descent mirrors your own energetic turning within The connection between cyclical witchcraft and long-term goal alchemy Witchcraft, Neuroplasticity & Discipline How your brain rewires itself through repetition, intention and emotional charge Why scrolling, overstimulation and fatigue sabotage magical momentum The unexpected role of the anterior mid-cingulate cortex - motivation task persistence emotional self-regulation choosing discomfort to reach your desires How witches can harness this part of the brain like a magical muscle Reframing discipline as a frequency of self-love and energetic sovereignty Ritual for Sacred Discipline A grounding, witchy practice designed to help you - Declare what you are devoted to this winter Anchor your discipline as a magical frequency Activate the neural pathways that support consistency Align your daily actions with your future self Step into the winter arc with power, clarity, and inner fire If you are ready to weave plant lore with brain magic, and step into a winter of powerful self-alchemy, this episode is for you.

This month we turn our gaze upward toward the radiant realms of the Angels. Angels are not bound by religion. They are frequencies of divine intelligence — messengers of light, guardians of the heart, and allies in both healing and manifestation. Their presence reminds us that even in darkness, light is always near. Throughout November, we will be working with the Angelic Current — inviting clarity, protection and peace into our energy fields as we prepare for winter's stillness. Expect soft golds, feathers, candlelight and celestial calm as we weave witchcraft with higher guidance. This is a month of softening, listening, and remembering that you are always held in light. Let the angels speak through your intuition, your dreams, and your everyday magic. This month includes – A deep exploration of the Angelic Realm and how witches can work with angels outside of dogma Guided meditation to meet your Guardian Angel Magick and teachings on the seven Archangels Journal prompts to discover your guiding angel Angelic healing practices for aura cleansing and energy renewal A ritual for Angelic Manifestation and opening to miracles A tarot spread for divine guidance A soft celestial-inspired printable poster for your altar or journal By the end of November, you will have – A clear understanding of angelic energies and how to work with them as a witch A strengthened connection with your Guardian Angel Practices for angelic healing, protection and peace Tools for divine manifestation and intuitive guidance A deeper sense of being supported, guided and held as winter approaches Join me for November's journey – https://patreon.com/TheHedgeandHollow?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink WINGS OF LIGHT — ANGELIC COMMUNION & GUIDANCE Wednesday 26th November, 7pm GMT via Zoom As winter's quiet deepens, our November circle invites us to rise into the light. This gathering centres on angelic connection and higher guidance. Together we will step into the frequency of divine love, exploring how angels and luminous beings communicate through intuition, signs and energy. What to expect – Energy Cleansing and Light Activation — a guided journey to release the residue of the year and awaken your inner radiance, calling upon Michael for protection and Raphael for healing Channelled Journaling — messages of peace, purpose and hope from your angels or higher self Divination — a shared card pull to receive angelic insight for the season ahead Closing in Light — sealing your energy in protection and anchoring the peace of angelic presence within your aura Access through The Witches Who Run With The Wolves tier.

Any time is a great time to honor the ancestors, but this energy is particularly potent during the Samhain portal when the veil is thinnest. This is a time when we may connect with our ancestors by celebrating their songs, their lives and the stories told around the fire. We acknowledge their pains, hurts, suffering and harmful choices, and we honor their efforts on our behalf. How do we work with our ancestors, regardless of whether we have a great or a challenged relationship with them? How do we offer honoring and celebration to receive gifts and guidance from our well and healed ancestors? How do we offer compassion, generosity and forgiveness to our ancestors who may be in the realm of suffering souls? Michelle and Katherine dive into a potent discussion of ancestral healing and connection. Join the Shaman Sisters for tools on how to work with your ancestors, how to make an ancestor altar and offerings, how to receive support from your ancestors and offer healing to your lineages.
What if you stopped doubting your gifts and started letting them lead?If you've ever felt a message come through a dream, sensed a shift when you walked into a room, or just *knew* something you “shouldn't,” your intuition might be stronger than you think.In this episode, Lacy and Jessica sit down with medium and energetic clearer Karen McGowan (aka Lacy's mom!) for a no-gatekeeping conversation on what it really means to live with spiritual gifts. Karen shares it all — from her first spirit visit as a child to the symbols she's learned to trust and the way she clears heavy energy from people and spaces. You'll learn how she protects her energy, stays grounded while tapping into her psychic abilities, and bridges the spiritual with the practical.As the veil thins ahead of Halloween, we explore the magic of Samhain, ancestral connection, and the power of spiritual sovereignty. This episode is your reminder to trust what you feel, set energetic boundaries like a badass, and stop second-guessing your gifts.**Trigger warning: Loss of a child and profound grief from 44:44 through 50:00**Find the complete show notes here -> https://tobemagnetic.com/expanded-podcast Resources: Join us at the How To Manifest Book TourAUSTIN // LA - Early Bird Discount available Join our HTM Book Club!
