BACK TO BASICS with SPACE DADDY & BIMBO YAGA
For the June Episode of Altars Up Witches Podcast, Space Daddy & Bimbo Yaga are going to be going Back to Basics! We’ve been getting so many great questions about working with ancestors, spirits, casting spells, and more. Many of these questions truly speak to a need to destigmatize the importance of magical foundations.
Why dedicate an entire podcast episode to the foundations of traditional magic?
Spells and rituals are powerful ways of connecting to the world around us. They also help us deepen and explore our understanding of how magic works through our craft. As we learn from our experiences, we will draw upon that wisdom to empower future actions. So often the witch gets so excited for the “fun stuff” that we can easily overlook the foundational steps that make the fun stuff truly powerful. In this episode, we are going back to basics! Get ready to get excited about the foundational practices that make every day life more magical!
Topics we hope to cover:
The importance of cultivating relationships with helping spirits
Daily practices for psychic clearing & protection
Connecting with your inner altar & power
Some juicy gossip
Revisiting and remediating our understanding of foundational magical principles is appropriate for witches of all skill levels…. especially those of us who’ve been around the block a few times. Never become so wise that you forget to learn. Never become so confident in your truth that you refuse to challenge your beliefs. We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did! Don’t forget to like, share, subscribe, and most importantly PLEASE LEAVE A REVIEW of the pod wherever you tune in.

Customer Reviews
GRATITUDE
Yesterday, I listened to my first “Altars Up Witches” podcast, episode S2 E3, “Baby Reckless, Babylon, and the Hounds of Love”. Thank you so much, Ylvadroma Marzanna Radziszewski, Kiki Robinson, and Aurora Luna! Heartily, I am grateful! Thank you for covering sensitive topics, kindly enlightening us as to how to connect respectfully to people, places, things. I appreciate you all, your candor and the data brought to the table about the challenges involved in leading oneself from one side of the fence to the other. I also appreciate the hot tips on how to tap into one’s own study and practice for a life worth living, and why one would want to do that. These offerings seem so valuable and relevant, helping us to make the necessary shifts to live in peace, joy, and unity. I look forward to taking another class/podcast with you all!
So grateful for this dialogue! 💖✨
Really connected to the content of the Scumtrust episode! 🙏🏽 Such fun and refreshing dialogue around shame, sex, magic and kink! Love. ✨🐻
Feeling the Playful Flow
I am connecting with your fun and playful conversation that reminds me to lighten up and have fun and PLAY! Sacred bimbos, the internet’s Saturn return, and sexy black holes - this podcast takes us deep by getting a little silly and I love it. Loved hearing Diana’s interview in the second episode and look forward to future guests.
