Summary: This show is not quite pagan, but for everyone. It deals with a subject that we humans, as a species, should avoid but for some reason can't. It's gossip. There are studies that say that gossip connects us. However, there are those, including myself, that disagree. I believe that gossip does divide us. The Spirit Guide of the Week is Bagalamukhi and the Dream Symbol is Weddings. Songs Featured: 1. Witch Wars by Loke E. Coyote 2. Silver Rose Quarter Call by Shining Wheel Pagan Chorus 3. Dark Goddess Medley by Crow Women 4. Perfect Storm by Leslie Hudson 5. A Courtship Tale by Featherscale 6. Handfast Blesings by S. J. Tucker 7. Self Esteem (A Guided Meditation) by the Honest Guys 8, Faerie Tale by Spiral Dance Links Mentioned: Events: - Harvest Fest 2019 - www.wiccanfest.com/harvestfest.html Pagan Fires 2019 - sabbatentertainment.com/pagan-fires/?…45bUNBr_Z6270 - Australian Wiccan Conference 2019 - www.wiccanconference.org/wordpress/co…current-awc/ Other: - Keep Left at the Fork Faerie Album & Fine Arts Nexus - www.kickstarter.com/projects/keeple…ref=thanks-copy - Gossip - www.paganspace.net/forum/topics/gossip - The Care & Keep of Your Coven - www.patheos.com/blogs/panmankey/2…ng-of-your-coven/
