A bounce in the semiconductor stocks is pulling everything up with it on a quadruple witching day, says Charles Schwab's Joe Mazzola. As he explains, pay attention to Thursday's moves, as it will likely highlight the stock market's next momentum shift. From strength in semis to weakness in crypto, Jim Ferraioli turns to the correlation in Bitcoin's slump to waning sentiment. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Join the Nephilim Death Squad for this raw, unfiltered episode as we brainstorm a brand-new segment for Straight Bible & NDS: breaking down modern contemporary worship music! We judge songs on musical technicality, scriptural application, and whether they're banger or cringe. Old-school hymns vs. today's formulaic worship — which ones are actually biblically sound and why does the motive behind the music matter?We also share powerful real-life stories of how worship songs helped someone escape witchcraft and the occult by planting scripture in their memory for years. Plus, wild listener-submitted UFO and sky anomaly stories including perfect UFO-shaped clouds, rectangular sky cutouts, and more mysterious phenomena.We dive deep into true prophets of the Lord vs. pod pastors, false prophecy, and what the Bible actually says about the prophetic. Expect classic NDS banter, culture talk, church discussion, and zero filter.If you love Bible study through music, UFO sightings, conspiracy, supernatural stories, and raw Christian conversation — this one's for you.Like, comment your favorite worship song or wildest sky story below, subscribe for daily episodes, and join Patreon for exclusive content!00:00 – Intro, music snippet & pitching the new “Worship Music Breakdown” segment02:45 – How we'll judge the songs (musical technicality, scripture, cringe factor)05:30 – Old hymns vs modern worship + motives behind the music (kingdom vs money)08:15 – Wife's stepsister's occult/witchcraft story & how worship songs helped her13:40 – Music as a powerful memory & scripture delivery vehicle16:50 – “Allergy shot” analogy for modern low-dose worship music19:30 – Phone call interruption (WiFi/business talk)21:45 – Back to worship: heart vs performance, Paul & Barnabas in jail25:00 – Running the poll on the new segment idea28:30 – Reading listener story: “Four Eyelids” – childhood UFO cloud sighting34:20 – Discussion on the story + Donald Marshall mention37:50 – Black helicopters in Orlando & extended culture/race banter46:00 – Pool stories, culture talk & “grading on a curve” discussion52:30 – Reading Revelator's email about pod pastors & UFOs56:45 – True prophets vs pod pastors & false prophecy discussion1:02:30 – Joseph Z's dad, smooth-talking prophets & counterfeit gifts1:07:00 – Nancy's story meeting Tim Alberino1:11:45 – Reading “Greasy Bear” listener story – dad's Mexico experience1:17:30 – Witching hour, strange horse sound & closing banter1:30:00 – EndBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/nephilim-death-squad--6389018/support.☠️ Nephilim Death Squad — New episodes 5x/week.Join our Patreon for early access, bonus shows & the private Telegram hive.Subscribe on YouTube & Rumble, follow @NephilimDSquad on X/Instagram, grab merch at toplobsta.com. Questions/bookings: chroniclesnds@gmail.com — Stay dangerous.

The sun is high, the days are long, the flowers are blooming, the herbs are going wild, and somehow your calendar has also decided to become an overgrown garden of obligations. Welcome to Litha, witches! In this episode of Back on the Broomstick, Laylla and Chelle celebrate the summer solstice, the longest day and shortest night of the year, by talking about what happens when all that solar energy starts to feel like a little too much. Litha is a season of fire, growth, joy, abundance, and everything blooming wild under the sun, but it can also be a time when life ramps up, the to-do list gets louder, and even your magic starts feeling like one more thing you're supposed to keep alive.So this year, we're looking at Litha through the eyes of the tired witch at midsummer. How do you stay connected to your craft when you're busy, overheated, overstimulated, broke, allergic to everything green, or just not in the mood to build an elaborate solstice altar? How do you let the sun warm you without burning you out?We'll share simple, practical, witchy ways to keep magic woven into your everyday life during the bright, busy rush of summer. From tiny solar rituals and sacred shade to ripening, boundaries, and tending your own light, this episode is a reminder that you do not have to do more to be magical. Sometimes the most powerful Litha spell is drinking some water, stepping into the shade, and remembering that even the sun knows when to rest.Karen's etsy shopSummer Magick and the Forgotten Sabbat68: Litha Stories, Spells, & Rituals - Myth of the Oak King & Holly King119: Midsummer Magick: Litha Lore and the Fair FolkGot a question?

It's that time again, Enchanted Sisters! Good Witch Bad Bitch Summer is BACK for year three, and this is your official invitation to make summer 2026 one you'll actually remember.In this episode, I'm walking you through what Good Witch Bad Bitch Summer is, how it started (spoiler: it began with a t-shirt for Team TSE), and how YOU can participate this year...completely free.Here's the deal: so many of us, especially in midlife, get stuck on the river bank instead of jumping in to swim. You know that feeling - like a gymnast whose body suddenly freezes mid-routine. We forget we can trust ourselves and that we've done hard things before. We forget we can fly. Good Witch Bad Bitch Summer is the practice of running off the bank and jumping into the water anyway.We're calling in TWO energies this summer:

In dieser Ausgabe von Raven Review bringt uns Isa etwas realen Horror aber auch ein bisschen Magie mit bei C. J. Cookes "The Book of Witching" erschienen auf Deutsch im Festa Verlag . Jascha berichtet von seinem Lieblingshorrorautor John Ajvide Lindqvist und seinem Buch "Alternativa fakta om fåglar", das sich vor allem mit alternativen Fakten über Vögel beschäftigt und gerne mal Dänen verunglimpft.

Today, a look at a market for which volatility remains very much pent up as we face the triple whammy of triple witching, weekend uncertainty and pivotal technicals for US equity markets. Also, a survey of key incoming news and supply chain perspectives as the countdown for physical shortfalls in supplies continues. Today's pod is hosted by Saxo Global Head of Macro Strategy John J. Hardy. As discussed on today's pod, here's a link to some of the key countdown clocks linked to supply shortfalls of key products that are not currently transiting the Strait of Hormuz. About twice per week, you will also find links discussed on the podcast and a chart-of-the-day over at the John J. Hardy substack.

"Oil is going to determine the tone for today," says Kevin Green, as he talks about the latest headlines that he expects to rattle investors Friday. Also brace for lots of volume on the options front that will shake equities, with KG pointing to triple witching expected to create wide market swings. He later talks about the "shocker" earnings beat and guidance raise in FedEx (FDX) amid all the geopolitical volatility.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Having a reliable well is the only way a lot of people can live in rural Utah. But digging a well can be an expensive gamble. You could spend thousands to hire a hydrologist to point you in the right direction. Or, for a fraction of the price, you could hire a water witch. Today we speak to Jim Brandt, an excavation contractor and dowser who uses brass rods and a handsaw to "witch" for the perfect place to dig. In his 40-year career, he's only dug two dry wells.

I'm looking forward to diving into the crumbling and the haunted this week with Leon Craig.  We're discussing Leon Craig's THE DECADENCE. And you the listener picked Leon as one of the rising stars of literature that you wanted me to interview. Have you ever walked past an old abandoned house and wondered what kinds of lives were lived there? Have you ever dared to explore one? Perhaps you wanted to escape and hide in the house. Or perhaps you wanted to use it for something a little more nefarious. Leon Craig, whose previous collection of short stories, PARALLEL HELLS, was also published by Sceptre, is a graduate of the Birkbeck MFA Creative Writing course. Her work has been published by Hazlitt, the Sunday Times, the London Magazine and others and is forthcoming in Nulla magazine and Berlin Babel anthology.   Get exclusive subscriber benefits from the Rippling Pages.  https://patreon.com/RipplingPagesPod?utm_medi Check out the Rippling Pages Bookshop and buy all the books featured on the Rippling Pages: https://uk.bookshop.org/shop/ripplingpagespod Interested in hosting your own podcast?

Beyond The Outer Realm welcomes Nicholas Pearson Date: February 11th, 2026 EP: 678 TOPIC: Nicholas Pearson is joining me to discuss his new book “ The Witching Stones - The Lore and Craft of The Essential Crystals, Gemstones and Minerals to Empower Your Magic" - The Witching Stones draws from rich veins of geological and occult history, expertly carving that knowledge into practical, powerful magick for today's practitioner.” —Mat Auryn, author of Psychic Witch and Mastering Magick A definitive guide to the crystals, gems, and humble stones possessing the most ancient and powerful connections to magic and witchcraft. In The Witching Stones, author Nicholas Pearson explores the historical usage of stones—including flint, hagstone, ammonite, fossil urchin, salt, lodestone, lead, toadstone, amber, jet, cross-stone, quartz, moonstone, and emerald—as well as why they are associated with witchcraft. He also offers practical and accessible uses for today's modern practitioner, from the basics of cleansing and consecrating your stones to more advanced techniques such as crafting lead curse tablets, blending incense and oils, and working lunar magic with moonstones. Containing over fifty spells, rituals, and recipes, The Witching Stones focuses on the geology, history, and practical use of crystals and stones in magic, and is suitable for beginners who don't know what to do with crystals as well as experienced crystal lovers who want to take their practice to the next level. While many spell books feature the use of crystals, this is the first to take a deep dive into the topic, exploring the mineral kingdom in the context of alchemy, talismanic magic, and Luciferian witchcraft.

Imbolc has arrived! Even if you're buried under snow right now, spring is undoubtedly working its magic underground. This is a perfect time to tend to the corners in your life that have gotten out of hand over the winter. Save the big house cleansing for spring, in this moment, it's the smaller spaces that call for your attention. Perhaps you have a closet that desperately needs organizing, a desk overflowing with papers, an altar gathering dust, or a pile of craft supplies threatening to take over an entire room. Look for the space that's feeling cluttered or stagnant. If you find that this corner is draining your energy, take this opportunity to tend to it. When the energy inside our homes is restored, we are much better equipped to meet life's needs outside our door. A little tending goes a long way. What am I reading?The Witching moon Manor by Stacy Sivinskihttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9781668058411The Green Wiccan spell Book by Silja Sil-yahttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9781782497851https://bookshop.org/shop/witchywomanwalkingWhat's playing on repeat?Raised by Wolves by The Interrupters  What's for dinner?Mediterranean Chickpea Soup2 tablespoons olive oil1 onion1 carrot1 rib celery 1 leek optional2 cloves garlic2 tablespoon tomato paste½ teaspoon dried rosemary or 1 tsp dried oregano4 cups vegetable broth or more to taste2 15 oz cans chickpeas 1½ pounds potatoes peeled and diced 1 15 oz can crushed tomatoes ¾ teaspoon salt or to taste + red pepper flakes and black pepper to taste4 tablespoons grated parmesan or crumbled feta - optionalInstructions:Chop 1 onion, 1 carrot, 1 rib celery, and 2 cloves garlic.Sauté them in a large pot or Dutch oven with 1 leek in 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil oil for 5–10 minutes until soft.Stir in 2 tablespoon tomato paste and ½ teaspoon dried rosemary.

What if the most magical crystal in your collection… is the one you've been ignoring?This week we're joined by crystal scholar, museum specialist, and magical science nerd Nicholas Pearson, author of The Witching Stones. Nicholas shares how he accidentally went from music major to museum earth-science expert, and how that twisty path led him to become one of today's leading voices in crystal magic.We explore the place where science and spirituality don't just coexist, they amplify each other. And how treating magic like data collection can make your practice more intuitive and more accurate.Nicholas then takes us into the mind-bending world of flint, the “ordinary” stone that literally changed human evolution, birthed early ritual, and forms in liminal spaces beneath the earth. He also reveals the real history of moonstone, the Roman obsession with jet, and the discovery of a Neolithic emerald crown. His take on emerald as a stone of radical self-worth and world-shifting love is one of the most powerful crystal teachings we've ever heard.Whether you're crystal-curious or crystal-obsessed, this episode will completely change how you relate to the mineral kingdom, and why the simplest stones often hold the most magic.Nicholas' book The Witching Stones is out now, and you can find Nicholas at @theluminouspearl or theluminouspearl.com.

 This week on the KPL Podcast, we speak with bestselling author Kristi DeMeester about her new novel Dark Sisters. In this fierce and haunting Southern Gothic, DeMeester unravels an intergenerational curse that binds — and torments — the women of Hawthorne Springs, an affluent town ruled by a powerful church known as The Path. Spanning centuries, the story follows three unforgettable protagonists: a pastor's daughter in 2007, a trapped housewife in 1953, and a suspected witch in 1750, each confronting the forces that seek to shape their destinies. Author RecommendationsDiavola by Jennifer ThorneWhite is for Witching by Helen OyeyemiGray Dog by Elliot Gish

Crystals are displayed prominently at virtually every witchcraft and metaphysical store; however, a comprehensive guide to their use in magic has been a missing element. Nicholas Pearson helps to remedy this with The Witching Stones, examining crystals, gems, and humble stones with the most ancient and powerful connections to magic. These magical stones number fourteen in all: flint, hagstone, ammonite, fossil urchin, salt, lodestone, lead, toadstone, amber, jet, cross-stone, quartz, moonstone, and emerald. Pearson explores the historical usage of these stones, as well as why they are associated with witchcraft, but also offers practical and accessible uses for the modern practitioner in the form of spells and rituals. He describes more than fifty spells, rituals, and recipes, from the basics of cleansing and consecrating your stones, to more advanced techniques like crafting lead curse tablets, blending incense and oils, and working lunar magic with moonstones.The Witching Stones focuses on the geology, history, and practical use of crystals and stones in magic. This book is an excellent how-to guide to the magical use of stones and crystals, suitable for beginners who don't know what to “do” with crystals, as well as for the experienced crystal lover who seeks to take their practice to the next level. While many spell books feature the use of crystals within them, this is the first book to dive deep into the topic, exploring the mineral kingdom in the context of alchemy, talismanic magic, and Luciferian witchcraft.Find The Witching Stones and Nicholas:Book: https://theluminouspearl.com/books/the-witching-stones/Website: www.theluminouspearl.comInstagram: www.instagram.com/theluminouspearlAdditional Links: www.linktr.ee/theluminouspearl Nicholas Pearson has been immersed in all aspects of the mineral kingdom for nearly thirty years. As one of the leading voices in crystal healing today, he offers a unique blend of science and spirituality alongside a grounded, practical approach to working with crystals. He is a regular on the metaphysical circuit, frequently teaching and making appearances on podcasts and doing interviews.

In this spellbinding episode of Pursuit of the Paranormal, we sit down with The Bell Witch Podcast's enchanting host Swailes, to explore modern witchcraft, real-world magic, and what it truly means to be a witch in the 21st century.

What happens when Italian folk traditions cross the Atlantic? This video explores how Italian witchcraft, especially the healing practice of Segnature, has been reimagined, reinvented, and often misrepresented in the United States. From Leland's Aradia to Wicca-inspired “Stregheria,” we'll look at how Italian-American communities blended folklore, Catholic devotion, and Pagan spirituality to create new forms of practice. But are these the same as the vernacular traditions in Italy, or something entirely different?This video is a recording of the paper I presented at the World Congress of the International Association for the History of Religions, held at Jagiellonian University in Kraków, Poland.Join me as we unpack the myths, the reinventions, and the cultural translations behind Italian witchcraft in America.CONNECT & SUPPORT

Ask Shelley 8-4-2025 Why does Water Witching, also known as Dowsing or Divining always seems to work?

Witching, dowsing, divining. is it physics, subconscious movement, or straight-up hocus pocus? In this episode of the Bear Grease podcast, Clay Newcomb speaks to firsthand observers, a legit water witcher, a university physics professor, and even MeatEater's own Steven Rinella to try to explain one thing: "What makes the sticks move?"

The sudden popularity of Labubu toys has resulted in grown adults lining up in the early morning hours to acquire as many of these little monsters as possible. Although upon first glance they appear sort of cute, closer examination will reveal that their apparent smile is actually a sinister grin with razor sharp teeth. Designed by Hong Kong-born artist Kasing Lung, the toys are sold by Pop Mart in collaboration with the artist and in relation to his 2015 book “The Monsters.” Their increasing popularity is a result of celebrities like Rihanna or Dua Lipa flaunting their own, although the trend began when Blackpink k-pop singer Lisa first was spotted with the keychain in April 2024. Each doll comes in a sealed box with no indication of what's inside, meaning each purchase is a mystery. Shoppers are notified of a new drop off of the toy at their local stores via WhatsApp. They then rush to the spot, as one Australian article documented, “at 3am.” Put simply, people are lining up during the “witching hour” to buy a mysterious monster in a box after receiving an oddly timed text in the middle of the night. The atmosphere around these toys is similar to any long gone or persisting product, from Furbys and Beanie Babies to Hello Kitty and Pokemon, but there is something else about these little toys that is anything but friendly.The dolls themselves are not really even monsters, but instead more like little children that appear to be possessed and wearing Teletubbies costumes. Like any good marketing campaign, the product page on Amazon describes their various character stores: one of the leaders, zimomo ventures to the human world where he learns yoga and then brings the practice back to his own world in the forest. The monsters are thus more like fairies, and in fact one description reads: “the elves in the forest are curious about the human world. So, the No. 1 curious player LABUBU gathered her friends and secretly came to the city for an adventure. The goal is absolutely not to be discovered by humans!” The forests are described further as “nordic,” which is the mythological nature that was inspiration for the dolls.It's not just the name zimomo that brings back memories of the Momo Challenge, but the fact that these monsters from another world are essentially being promoted like Momo. Mysterious messages in the middle of the night that prompt half-asleep humans to perform some action - in this case, buy a mysterious box that contains what amounts to a fairy, demon, familiar, or personal spirit charm. This is reminiscent also of the 3am Challenge and the recent Mirror Challenge, where one looks into the mirror for so long they watch their face and reality around them distort. The name LA BU BU is even more telling of an underlying darkness. The LALALOOPSY doll, a girl with no apparent ears, a mouth sewn shut, and black buttons for eyes - something further reminiscent of the movie Carolin where the Beldam Other Mother replaces the girl's eyes (soul) with buttons to trap her in the other world - is a toy about fanciful play through a sort of loopy “Lala-ness.” The LA BU BU is generally said to refer to the same playfulness, though the word “bubu” is both a euphemism for a child's injury, and also holds the meaning of grandmother. In other words, LA GRANDMOTHER, the old crone of the forest. She is also known as Momo, Yamamba, the hag, the Hansel and Gretel Witch, or Baba Yaga. She also shares something in common with La Llorona, Ubume, and Banshee.  Perhaps this is all a coincidence, or perhaps Labubu, like Elf on the Shelf, is not something we should be bringing into our homes or carrying with us on our person. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.
