Spinning the Wheel is The Pagan Wheel of the Year, but it is so much more than just 8 holy days. We take a look at how Pagans, Witches, Heathens and other polytheists, ancient and modern, celebrate their holy days, and we also take a look at what everyone else is doing, developing our connection to our own path, as well as deepening our empathy for our fellow humans.
I have been teaching this material for over 20 years, but this podcast is still in its experimental stages, and so is a little rough around the edges, but ya gotta start somewhere!

    2024 Feb New Moon in Aquarius, Lunar Week 44

    NEW MOON IN AQUARIUS - Initiating and seeding a new intellectual, focused view of the future. Spotlight on friend groups, and revolutionary, communal, progressive, group-oriented work.

    What is holding us back from living our most authentic life? Where are we hiding behind outdated fears and inhibitions?

    This week we look at Lunar Magick, astrology, fixed star myths and Holy Days that bring this work into clarity. Also included are Tarot, crystals, and plant helpers for this work.

    Samhain Season Waning Moon in Leo Lunar Week 31

    Samhain Season Waning Moon in Leo Lunar Week 31

    This week is a mixed bag of astrology. Helpful and stabilizing at the beginning, ominous and explosive as the week goes on. If you are feeling lost, ground into your values, and get real with yourself about where you need more education. Get real with yourself around whatever privileges you may have and how you can leverage them to help the collective. Our week also offers us an interesting collection of emotions: many Pagan holy days this week are about remembering our fallen Witches and other groups who have oppressed throughout time. But, we end the week with the onset of the Holy Week of Diwali - let us utilize this moment to light a candle and not simply curse the darkness.

    May knowledge and compassion reign over ignorance and hate.

    Samhain 2023: Witch's New Year

    Samhain 2023: Witch's New Year

    The dark is here.
    The shift in the Sun's path is undeniable as the days shorten and the weather grows darker and colder. The Cross-Quarter holiday Samhain (pronounced "sow-wain") is possibly the most well-known of the Sabbats. Americans celebrate it as Hallowe'en. Samhain is the true tipping point into The Underworld Journey of Winter.

    Learn how to incorporate archetypes and symbols that can sometimes be dark and spooky into your life as healthy and balanced forms of working with The Shadow and to help you make the final shift away from the labor and celebrations of Autumn into the stillness and and rebirth of the coming Winter season.

    In this two hour lecture we will take a look at the superstitions and traditions surrounding Samhain, considering how people have used revelry, shape shifting, and pranks to deal with the oncoming chaos and breakdown of Winter - or to help bring it about. Immerse yourself in the ancient global rituals of this Cross Quarter festival acknowledging the death of the Sun and the Earth discover how you can evoke this power in your own life and world.

    But the work isn't done after one night! We'll take a look at what we can expect for the coming 6-7 weeks of Samhain season, learn how you can observe this time of transition for yourself or with your community, and get ready to Head Underground.

    This class is free for all beings thanks to support from MY PATRONS!!

    Mabon Season Waxing Moon in Capricorn Lunar Week 29

    Mabon Season Waxing Moon in Capricorn Lunar Week 29

    What a heavy time to be alive on Earth. These moments of turmoil have been building for decades, centuries. Witches we must challenge ourselves to simultaneously not doom scroll, and also not turn away.

    Our astrology this week ramps up the tension. Our fixed stars this week point to where, when we have been given power or privilege, we are meant to utilize this power in the world for the betterment of all. Our Holy days this week call in the cold rains that break down the old order, and soak the Earth with potential fertility to grow a new better world.

    Mabon Season Waning Moon in Cancer Lunar Week 27

    Mabon Season Waning Moon in Cancer Lunar Week 27

    Witches! We are smack-dab in the middle of this Sabbat-Season, and this week is more of the same - Harvest, Ancestors, Wisdom work.

    We are passing through the holy days of the Eleusinian Mysteries, witnessing the transformation of Kore/Persephone from a Maiden of Flowers to The Queen of the Dead. And Her mother, Demeter, changing from Mother of Life, to Crone and Wisdom Keeper. Mourning ancestral losses, and unavoidable change or endings is all work to clear space for the upcoming eclipses.

    As we make our way through Fall, are you witnessing the shape-changing you're going through? Can you find richness in the Light and Dark parts of you?

    WITCHWORK: cleaning graves, ancestral offerings, being still as we approach the New Moon.

Witchy without the woo

Meagan is smart, super informed, and a refreshing change from all the “aesthetic” witchy podcasts. What she does is approachable and accessible for real-life pagans who understand that life gets messy sometimes. I love the leftist, social justice-focused approach as well. Honestly I just wanna be Meagan when I grow up. :)
