Join us for an empowering episode of THE CIRCLE IS podCAST with Rachel True and Mat Auryn as we welcome the incomparable T. Thorn Coyle. A lifelong magickal practitioner, activist, and author of both nonfiction and witchy fiction, Thorn brings decades of experience to a powerful conversation about art, justice, and magick as tools for transformation. We dive into the creation of their paranormal cozy mystery series, the healing potential of storytelling, and how fiction can serve as a potent magickal act. Thorn shares how activism, imagination, and enchantment intersect in both their writing and spiritual practice. Rachel and Mat reflect with Thorn on the current sociopolitical climate, the danger of despair, and the urgent need for action rooted in compassion. We talk sigils, spellcraft, and the sacred duty of showing up—even when it's uncomfortable. They open up about what it means to stand tall in a world trying to shrink you, and how mundane action and magickal vision can align. From calling senators to feeding neighbors, we explore how resistance looks in real life and why community magick matters. Whether you're looking for practical tools, a moment of solidarity, or simply permission to protect your light and still shine, this episode holds space for it all.Thorn's Links:Thorn's Website: https://www.thorncoyle.comThorn's Print Books: https://www.thorncoyle.com/shop?page=2Thorn's E-Books: https://thorncoylebooks.comResistance Matters: https://thorncoylebooks.com/products/resistance-matters-on-life-in-empireMagic, Creativity, and Life: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVcIU9eIFcZgcoIB25Uw_6zq9hwSOcdwkOur Links:Rachel True Website: https://truehearttarot.comMat Auryn Website: https://auryn.netModern Witch Podcast Network: https://modernwitch.comMat's Omega Retreats: https://www.auryn.net/omegaTrue Heart Intuitive Tarot, Guidebook And Deck: https://a.co/d/9ZNyRu1The Psychic Art of Tarot: Opening Your Inner Eye for More Insightful Readings: https://a.co/d/dUBT1bZPsychic Witch: A Metaphysical Guide to Meditation, Magick & Manifestation: https://a.co/d/bHelDwUMastering Magick: A Course in Spellcasting for the Psychic Witch: https://amzn.to/3VesGalPisces Witch: Unlock the Magic of Your Sun Sign: https://a.co/d/cGqcG61

"Imagine the Black Panthers of the 1960s, only with magic in a stunningly well-written and detailed take of that turbulent time in history." This alternate history fantasy series is set in the turbulent years of 1968-1969 - particularly the month of December, 1969 - when J. Edgar Hoover took on the Black Panther Party. To Raise a Clenched Fist to the Sky is the first book in The Panther Chronicles saga, an engaging urban fantasy series. If you like far out magic, alternative history, and strong characters who take a stand, then you’ll love this bold novel.

The other day I had the chance to speak with Robin Corak, the owner of Phoenix Awen Rising among many things. Robin came on to the show to talk to me about Persephone: Practicing the Art of Personal Power, her latest book. It's a timely book about self empowerment in a place of darkness. I'm working through it myself right now. If anyone is interested I wouldn't mind doing a book club where we work through the exercises and questions together. Just let me know at our email.  Recently we were given a press pass to The Official Witches Sabbat which is a bi-annual assembly of witches and occultists. It was fantastic and we enjoyed ourselves and learned a lot. In fact, as far as pagan conferences and festivals go, we attended more presentations at the Witches Sabbat than any of the others, ever.  The presenters were knowledgeable and passionate about what they were teaching. The quality of the sound and video was great with no lag that I could ascertain. I would highly recommend attending next conference. Thank you to Devin and the rest of the crew for inviting us, it was a great time.  At The Official Witches Sabbat the first annual Witchies were held. We will be having 3 Witchy winner, Mat Auryn on the show in the near future. Congratulations Mat! Mat also presented at The Official Witches Sabbat.  I was so excited to hear what our Feature Album is this episode. Mojo chose Songs for the Waning Year by Sharon Knight and T. Thorn Coyle. This is one of my favourite more seasonal pagan albums. From the album we hear Prayer for the Dead, The Morrigan Chant, and at the end of the show, Osiris Lives.  We also hear Holly, Ivy, & Yew from The Road Santiago by Heather Dale. To complete our musical offering this episode we have Warrior Goddess from Journey to the Goddess by Lisa Thiel.  Thanks for walking The Wigglian Way!  See you soon.

Hello again witches, seekers, and friends, and thanks for tuning in to The Fat Feminist Witch Podcast episode 42 STAR GODDESS.  Today I'm finishing up this unofficial astrology series from the last few episodes by talking about the asteroids in astrology. Instead of just throwing astro facts at you, I'm telling the stories of the god and goddesses these celestial bodies are named after!  This guide on the roman-named asteroids allows you to calculate your own sign, and read a little bit about what that means. Always Astrology I've also got a whole bunch of magic rocks for you, all of which either come from outer space or can help you connect with the cosmos. You can find info and pictures of all of these on my website - Magic Rocks from Outer Space! The song you heard right before was Lunar Dunes by Spinning Clocks.  I first learned about the Star Goddess in Evolutionary Witchcraft by T. Thorn Coyle, who was trained in the feri tradition. If you want to explore the entire tradition more in-depth I suggest looking for books by Storm Faerywolf like Betwixt and Between, and The Forbidden Mysteries of Faery Witchcraft. This website feritradition.com that he created also fully immerses you in the incredible FERI AESTHETIC. Y'all it's so whimsical.  I used the Mythic Tarot and it's accompanying book to help tell the stories of Chiron (the hierophant), Ceres (the empress), and Athena (justice). If you're a fan of greek or roman mythology it connects it with the tarot so well and still tells the stories in all their glory. with pictures!   Connect with me!

Your author business can be an extension of your values and another step on the journey of your life.

Good almost Wigglian Summer! We are excited for the coming months and all that they will bring. We hope you are looking forward to the warmer days as well. Since we are talking about summer, let's start with our Feature Album. This time of year Mojo and I like to listen to Sharon Knight and T. Thorn Coyle's The Strengthening Sun. We only listen to it during the "Light" half of the year and Force of Nature, Frey and Freya, and the Jewel of the Sun are some of our favourite songs from that cd. Some of our other favourite summer songs are Aphrodite and Pan by our friend Kellianna and Hal an Tow by D The Bard (That's Damh the Bard in case you didn't know). Recently, we have been getting a lot of questions regarding meditation and journeying and what might the difference be. Better than to try that one ourselves, we invited our animist teacher John-Luke Edwards of the Sagh'ic Tire Dhream, to explain. As an added bonus, John-Luke shares the difference between Totem Animals and Animal Guides. May we also direct you to the Society's podcast, The Forked Stick.

Thank you for joining me Down at the Crossroads where we have the conversations that the pagan community needs to have. Because as you know, we are, "Pagan culture for the Seasoned Pagan." Tonight, we meet with beloved occult artist, author, blogger, and witch Sarah Anne Lawless who is known for her artwork and her long-time running blog which can now be found at her website sarahannelawless.com. A professional artist, writer, and witch, Sarah’s work has been published in various books, magazines, and online in The Cauldron, Hex Magazine, Witches & Pagans, Witchvox, Serpent Songs, and Hoofprints in the Wildwood. She is a carver, painter, and illustrator working in the mediums of bone, wood, ink and paint creating original artwork, talismans, and ritual tools. Sarah is an animist, initiated witch, and wortcunner with a love of otherworldly beauty, folklore, mythology, poisonous plants, wildcrafting, wild places, and bones. - Bio, sarahannelawless.com Sarah and I discuss her path, the touchy issue of mental illness in the Pagan community, finding a teacher, as well as her recent projects, like her involvement in the Pagan Bundle, and publications like her appearance in Scarlet Imprints latest anthology of witchcraft essays titled "Serpent Song." And along with some great discussion we also get to hear music by Omnia, Sharon Knight and T. Thorn Coyle, Eluveitie, SJ Tucker, and Swallows. Enjoy!

Artist Steve Casino has chosen an unusual medium for his art – peanut shells – on which he paints the famous and the infamous. He tells us how he does it and why he began this strange endeavor and what his friends really think of it (and him). Sideshow historian James Taylor relates the triumphant but somewhat tragic story of the sexiest and most talented con-joined twins of all times – the Hilton Sisters. From their mother selling them upon their birth to their nanny to their financially successful life on the vaudeville stages to their retirement jobs as dual cashiers at a Florida grocery store, James weaves their engrossing story. Other Strange and Wonderfully Weird Stories We Captured for the April 15 Episode of Ripley Radio, the official radio partner of Ripley’s Believe It or Not!, include: Teen Ivan Barber has surgery for appendicitis only 10 hours before he takes the stage and wins a battle of the bands contest; T. Thorn Coyle explains how we can all easily “make magic” in our everyday lives; Ghoul School professor Barry Anderson joins us again and explains how his grandmother predicted an airplane event that nearly took the life of his father; and horror film actor J Larose returns and tells us how cool it was to be a part of career day at his kid’s elementary school along with all the doctors and lawyers and insurance salesmen parents of the other kids.

Today is the Solstice. If you are reading/listening to this show after Solstice, WE MADE IT!! It's actually the beginning of so many things. The old age is over and the new age has begun.  For this, the last episode of the calendar year and also the episode that closes 6 years of Wigglian podcasting, we have a special guest. We were lucky enough to get a recording of a lecture that Ronald Hutton gave in September in London, England. Sparrow was supposed to be at that lecture but was unable to make it. Our good friend, Dennis, was kind enough to record it and send it to us. We hope you enjoy and learn a little about Pagan History.  We are not featuring an album on this episode but have 5 seasonal tunes for your enjoyment.  Our first song is by Damh the Bard and is called The Winter King, from the Spirit of Albion. Next we hear Light of the World by Sharon Knight and T. Thorn Coyle from the album Songs for a Waning Year.  We borrowed from mainstream music for the next three songs and they are Merry Christmas Baby (by Charles Brown, from the Blues at Christmas 1 cd), Little Drummer Boy (Bob Seger, Ultimate Hits), and finally Winter Wonderland (REO Speedwagon, Not So Silent Night).  Blessed Yule everybody. Stay safe and warm and don't drink and drive.  Thanks for Walking the Wigglian Way!

Two steps forward and one back? The closer we get to Episode 100 the harder it is to see. We will get there. It's only 5 episodes. It's bound to happen. Right? Right? Right!  We talk about the busy month that February is turning out to be for us. For such a short month it sure has a lot packed into it. Sparrow's segment is quaintly named, "clothing/modesty/misogyny/slut whore topic"...and is a rant against the word SLUT. We discuss about many workshops and lectures that are available at Pantheacon, in San Jose, this year and which ones we'd like to go to. We leave in just a few days.  The feature album for tonight's episode is, As Nature Intended, by Damh the Bard. It's a live unplugged album and we LOVE it! From the album we hear Pagan Ways, Gently Johnny, and The Hills they are Hollow. Alexander James Adams, Sharon Knight, and T.Thorn Coyle will all be at Pantheacon so we share some of their music with you on Episode 95. From Alec we hear Blood and Passion from Balance of Nature. From Sharon and Thorn's album Songs for the Strengthening Sun we hear Joys of Springtime.  The Sun IS strengthening. If we all sing, laugh, dance, and love LOUD the Sun will return. Summer will come again.  Speaking of summer, we have our first summer festival announcement! The Sun Wheel Pagan Arts Festival, June 29th to July 2nd, just outside of Edmonton, Alberta! Thanks for visiting with us and for downloading the show. Thanks for walking The Wigglian Way!
