- Espiritualidades
Hello Listeners!
Welcome, and thank you for listening to Witchery & the Moon Podcast! The topic of this episode is one that I have been dying to research and discuss, especially with a sister witch and friend from Kyiv, Ukraine. I'm obsessed with folklore, especially that of my Slavic ancestry. We dive into the myths of several creatures and spirits, both good & mischievous. I myself also learned a lot about the history of witchery in Ukraine, and we hope there is something new for you here too. Here are some ways to connect with Kseniia & I:
