WITCHERY & the MOON Devi Danyluck

Hello Listeners!

*TRIGGER WARNNG* - We talk about still birth, so please be warned of this sensitive topic. Thank you Bev for sharing this intimate moment.

*EDIT* - Correction: Bev was 42 weeks pregnant when she lost Charlie, not 24 weeks.

Welcome, and thank you for listening to Witchery & the Moon Podcast! In this episode, Bev Dodds of Primal Stone and I part the Mists of Avalon and share our experiences at the Chalice Well and The Tor. And since we are both magpies for shiny things, we also discuss how we can all benefit from incorporating crystal energy in our daily life. Here are some ways to connect with Bev & I:

Hello Listeners!

Welcome, and thank you for listening to Witchery & the Moon Podcast! In this episode we dive into witchy fashion, witchy music icons and our obsessions with everything witchy. I finally had the chance to interview one of my besties for the podcast, so get ready for a fun and hysterical time as Tommy Vowles and I get real on the topics of veganism, sustainability, witchery and being misfits breaking the molds of society since high school. You can always sit at our table with us! Here are some ways to connect with Tommy & I:

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:

Hello Listeners!

Welcome, and thank you for listening to Witchery & the Moon Podcast! Today's podcast is an educational program, but isn't it always? I created a list of questions about witchery & tarot to ask the 2 charming and witty drag queens Morgan Wood & Santana $exMachine. They both know a wee bit about the subject, but I'd say we all learned something new and walked away from this "game show" with new perspectives and knowledge. We had fun and I know you will too. Here are some ways to connect with Morgan, Santana & I:

Hello Listeners!

Welcome, and thank you for listening to Witchery & the Moon Podcast! The build up, for me, for this episode has been huge. I am big admirer of the hauntingly beautiful photographic works of Nicolas Bruno, so having him as a guest on the podcast was a delight! We dive into the nightmare of his struggles with sleep paralysis that he bravely faced head-on and turned into visions of art. We hear some behind-the-scenes stories, learn some of his secrets for creating The Somnia Tarot, dive into interpretations of the tarot and Nicolas learns what his "Spirit Card" is. I was blown away by everything he shared and I know you will be as well. Here are some ways to connect with Nicolas & I:
