    What Is a Grimoire? History, Myths & How to Make Your Own

    What even is a grimoire? Does it have to be leather-bound, handwritten, and passed down through generations? (Spoiler: absolutely not.) This week, we're diving into the history of grimoires, Book of Shadows, and magical journals, exploring where they came from, how they've evolved over time, and why there's so much confusion around what they're "supposed" to be. We're also sharing what our own grimoires actually look like, from digital notebooks and Notion pages to chaotic journals, collages, and junk journaling. Along the way, we bust some of the biggest grimoire myths, chat about the surprisingly fascinating history behind them, and share plenty of ideas to help you create a magical record that actually works for you.  Whether you're starting your very first grimoire or looking for fresh inspiration, this episode is your reminder that there are no grimoire police, and your practice gets to look however you want it to. 🎴Enrollment to Tarot 101 with Madison & Anthony is open and starts August 12th 2026 https://shopspellcrafter.com/products/tarot-101-the-virtual-cohort 📖 Order Molly’s book Mundane Magic A Lazy Witch's Guide to Hacking Your Brain, Building a Daily Practice, and Getting Stuff Done Join our Patreon for bonus episodes, magical downloads, and unhinged side quests: https://www.patreon.com/demystifymagic 🔮 Join the waitlist for Reiki 1: The Science of Self-Healing: https://www.mollydonlan.com/reikiwait 🛍️Shop our merch here: https://demystifymagic.com/collections/merch 🔮 Download the FREE Manifest with Reiki Ritual: https://www.mollydonlan.com/manifestwithreiki 🕯Shop spell candles and oils at Spellcrafter https://shopspellcrafter.com  🔮 Shop magical tools to enhance your practice, use code MAGIC to get 20% off your order: https://thehealinghedgewitch.com/ 🎬 Molly’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@m0dizzl3  Let us know your thoughts: ✨ Demystify Magic Instagram: @demystifymagic ✨ Molly’s instagram: @m0dizzl3 ✨ Madison’s instagrams: @madisonlillian.jpeg and @healinghedgewitch  and @shopspellcrafter

    Why This Tarot Reader Is Suing Pennsylvania Over an 1861 Law with Beck Ravenswood

    What happens when a tarot reader is told they could face jail time simply for doing their job? We’re joined by Beck Ravenswood, witch, tarot reader, and owner of The Serpent’s Key, to talk about the 1861 Pennsylvania law that makes fortune telling a crime and the federal lawsuit they’re fighting to have it struck down. Beck takes us inside the moment local police showed up at their shop, why they refused to back down, and how a viral TikTok turned their experience into a much bigger conversation about religious freedom, discrimination, and the rights of spiritual practitioners. We also dig into the troubling history behind fortune-telling laws, the importance of knowing your legal rights, and why this case could have an impact far beyond one tarot reader or one state. Plus, Beck shares how the witchcraft community can get involved through collective ritual and real-world action, and why magical intention should always be met with mundane action. This is a powerful conversation about community, courage, and what it means to stand up when outdated laws are still being used against marginalized practices.

    Low-Effort Rituals for the Waning Moon

    What if the most magical phase of the moon isn't about manifesting more, but about learning to do less? So many spiritual practices focus on setting intentions and taking action, the waning moon offers something equally important: a chance to slow down, reflect, and integrate what you've learned. We chat about why rest can feel so uncomfortable, especially for high achievers, and how working with the natural rhythm of the lunar cycle can help us release productivity guilt and embrace patience. We also share low effort rituals, journaling practices, crystal recommendations, and everyday ways to connect with waning moon energy.

    Low-Effort Rituals for the Waxing Moon

    Most moon magic conversations focus on the New Moon and Full Moon, but what about the phase in between? In this episode, we dive into the often-overlooked Waxing Moon and explore why this season of growth, momentum, and becoming may be where the real magic happens.  We chat about how the Waxing Moon supports manifestation, we share practical ways to work with Waxing Moon energy through low-effort rituals and discuss overcoming resistance, navigating growing pains, finding motivation when progress feels slow, and embracing the steady steps that move us closer to our goals.  If you've ever felt stuck waiting for results, this episode is a reminder that the journey itself is part of the magic, and that meaningful growth often happens in the spaces in between.
