    Spirit Contact 101

    One of the things that people just starting out in their magical journey get a little afraid of is spirit contact. But sometimes it's just fun to have ghost friends, so why not explore it when you feel ready? In this episode Siri and Cassandra talk about many different kinds of spirit contact, different boundaries to draw around that contact, and we share a few stories of different scrapes we've been in and how we've made it out of them. This one's a long one, so make sure to grab your favorite beverage and sit down to relax.If you would like to read a transcript of this episode, all of our transcripts are available for free on our Patreon.

    Let's Bring the Glamour (Magic)

    Get out your makeup brushes, your chest binders, and your most fabulous outfits and let's talk all things Glamour Magic! It might sound like a very niche area of witchcraft, but we wanted to talk about it in the first season of Chaos and Cunning because it is so so so useful from a body liberation, queer liberation perspective. In this episode Cassandra and Siri talk about many different ways and reasons to do glamour magic - and some of them may surprise you.

    Discernment, Baby!

    Discernment is one of the most important tools a witch can use, and it can be difficult to develop discernment on your own. Siri and Cassandra wanted to talk about discernment early in the podcast to make sure that as you listen and develop your own practice, you have some tools to develop your own discerning abilities.
