The Witchcast With Lucy Cavendis‪h‬ Bad Boys Media

Witches! Straddle those brooms and fly yourself into the magickal sonic circle for a cackle-fest of a conversation overflowing with mirth and reverence. Blessings and welcome to a very juicy conversation with the fabulously talented witch, writer and artist Priestess Moon. Lucy and Megan (Priestess Moon) chat about sigils and how to make them, unicorn mythos, illuminated herbal texts, Enid Blyton (yes, really) magickal trees, growing up weirdish and wildish and much much more. This conversation is like a warm squishy hug of welcome to a very eccentric coven and you will feel like you’ve just hung out with two besties who just happen to talk a LOT about witchcraft! It’s a warm, delicious and very funny conversation filled with insights and wisdom and ah-ha moments (amidst the cackling). You’ll feel right at home, magickal soul!

Songs are by Sheila Chandra and Wardruna and they are amaaazing!

Happy resurrection egg time, witches! Grab yourself some chocolate bunnies or bilbies and join the sacred sonic circle as Lucy dissects the online war that broke out around Starhawk, a legend of Witchcraft who deserved way way better. This is important stuff, as its about how we treat our Witchcraft elders - and it needs to get much, much better. Learn about the new sacred sites discovered after the summer of fire (and why we will never go there) and discover the Irish Farmer who works with the faeries  to heal the land. In the Cauldron there are some very juicy questions answered, including the meaning of dreams when your hands are covered in indigo, and Lucy shares really simple and super powerful ways to improve your second sight - worthwhile for anyone who wants to see auric fields or their own personal visions with a LOT more clarity.


Song are the joyous classic Spirit in the Sky by Norman Greenbaum, Oh Golden Grain by Wendy Rule, and Damh the Bard’s Pagan Ways.
Production by The Wizard, aka Shayne Brian.

A delicious, warm-hearted episode revealing the surprising behind-the-scenes secrets of witchy classic Practical Magic - including the real-life curse unleashed on the movie by a magickal consultant! Lucy explores the magick of sisterhood, home and hearth, and discovers just why this movie just seems to keep resonating with Witches. (Especially anyone who longs for close female friendships, or has needed help with escaping an abusive relationship.) Lucy then shuffles her Alice: The Wonderland Oracle and answers very tricky questions on whether a listener should leave a toxic, sexist workplace, asks the cards why someone would refuse to date Cancerians (how very rude!) and asks Alice about choosing the right path for a listener torn between Druidry and Egyptian magicks. This episode is peppered with enchanted songs by Ashley Serena, Harry Nilsson and Jefferson Airplane, is sponsored by the majestic Blue Angel, powerful Primal Healing and sublime all-natural Kohli Tea (sipped every episode by Lucy!). the Witchcast is brought to you by Shayne’s production wizardry and an iconic host of Patreon Angels.

Blessed be, Witchcasters! Come visit Lucy on instagram and facebook and share your thoughts, feelings, ideas on the Witchcast!

Opening with Lucy’s blessings for a magickal Mabon and a very blessed Ostara, then an exploration of what the Equinoxes’ energies may hold in store for you, this episode feels sacred and inspiring - a must for every witchy soul seeking the sacred as the wheel turns. Lucy has a spirited, soulful and very sassy conversation with the fascinating Ethony Dawn, whose independently published Tarot and Oracle decks are game-changers. Daring, vibrant, progressive and fearless, Ethony’s an inspiration for a new, unbound generation of Witches walking their own wild paths. Lucy and Ethony talk sisterhood, Practical Magic (that’s right, the movie) spells that go wrong and how to keep your Witchery fresh and creative. Including songs from Xavier Rudd, S.J. Tucker and Loreena Mckennit, this episode of the Witchcast will get your Equinox celebrations off to a high-vibe, spirited and utterly magickal start.

In this episode Lucy shares the creepy history of Frozen Charlotte dolls and other forms of food magick; explores Pamela Coleman Smith and the complicated story of the Rider Waite Tarot Deck and reveals the reasons behind the banning of the ages old tradition of the Evil Eye talisman in Turkey. She then takes a deep breath and tackles the tricky question most witches get asked sooner or later - are Witches in league with the Devil?

Lucy goes through the complicated history of this association, and shares just why it began, and just who it benefits (um, not witches). She even opens the door to the surprising Temple of Satan and their amazing charitable works - and no, you don’t have to sell your soul to get some soup and a blanket from them. She helps a listener out who has lost their Oracle Card guidebook, and shares magickal tips on how to stop a nosy neighbour from being a pest.

Finally Lucy gets into the science behind bookwitching - how reading magickal works for study and pleasure change your brain for the better, including delaying cognitive decline, increasing empathy, and making us all better problem solvers who can navigate the beautiful chaos of our world. The show as always is supported by wonderful sponsors Kohli Tea, Blue Angel Publishing and Primal Healing, and the growing Patreon family who make the Witchcast possible. In between all the witchy goodness, Lucy plays songs by Wendy Rule, G Wayne Thomas and Marianne Faithfull.

Thankyou as always to sound wizard Shayne, to the Patreon family, to the sponsors and to YOU, the listener.

Open Up Your Heart: G Wayne Thomas

By knot of one, the spell’s begun...Blessed be, Witches! This week Lucy goes deep into the second season of A Discovery of Witches, which goes all Outlander on us as Diana and Matthew step back in time - to 1590, to be precise. It’s a feast for the fans of witchy history - alchemist Mary Sidney, The School of Night, Dr John Dee and a host of real-life magickal folks cross paths with our protagonists. Lucy explores real-life weavers, conducts a little how-to on knot magick, explains and explores the Witches Ladder and finds out just how Teresa Palmer (Diana Bishop) found her own elemental magick during the shoot for the show.

The Turn of a Card turns up a question on how to deepen the magick of a coven working from a share house - Lucy explores ways to keep a magickal group fresh, connected, and healthy - as well as how to introduce structure that can really focus your witchcrafting skills while respecting all members’ individual strengths. There are a host of occult-flavoured songs from Stevie Nix (no, it is NOT Rhiannon), the Pretenders and Donovan. A big big thankyou to our sponsors, Kohli Tea, Primal Healing and Blue Angel Publishing, and to the supporters who make the heart of this podcast beat into being every Friday - Patreon family, you are the best! And big thanks as always to Shayne Brian for his sound magick!

Songs:
Sorcerer - Stevie Nicks (featuring Sheryl Crowe)
Hymn to Her - the Pretenders
Season of the Witch - Donovan

As always huge gratitude and love and thanks to all the Lucy Cavendish Patreon supporters, and to all the keen listeners who’ve written in, and to Talented Producer Shayne for making Lucy’s kitchen sound like a magickal recording studio! 

A HUGE THANKYOU to all the Witchcast sponsors – Naomi Manouge at Primal Healing, Blue Angel Publishing, Kohli Tea (having a cuppa right now) and if you would like to become a sponsor of the Witchcast, just head to Lucy’s Patreon page to see how to make this happen!
