    Signs and Stars: Virgo's Personality, Magic, and Seasonal Energy

    In this episode of Signs & Stars, we’re exploring Virgo personality, traits, mythology, astrology, and magic to understand the sixth sign of the zodiac and the energy of Virgo season. We’ll explore Virgo’s strengths and weaknesses, compatibility, Mercury rulership, mutable earth energy, and the analytical, nurturing, detail-oriented personality this zodiac sign is known for. Then we’ll look to the stars themselves, trace Virgo through mythology and folklore, and bring Virgo astrology into our own magical practices through season rituals and correspondences, holistic wellness, mindfulness, service, daily routines, and the small intentional choices that create meaningful change over time. Plus, we’ll explore crystals, herbs, colors and other magical correspondences, three shadow work prompts, a spell for grounded focus, and a simple tarot or oracle practice for uncovering the details you may be overlooking. Whether you’re a Virgo Sun, Moon, or Rising, have Virgo elsewhere in your birth chart, or simply want to understand the astrology and magic of Virgo season, come sit beneath the willow as we explore what the maiden can teach us about paying attention, refining our lives, and finding transformation in the things we do every day.

    Grimoire of the Gods: Adephagia, Goddess of Gluttony

    This week beneath the willow, we’re opening the Grimoire of the Gods to one of the most obscure goddesses in the Greek pantheon: Adephagia, goddess of gluttony, insatiable hunger, and perhaps something much more complicated. With only fragments of her worship surviving, Adephagia leaves us with more questions than answers. Was she truly a goddess of excess, or did she once represent agricultural abundance, plentiful food, and the ability to eat your fill? We’ll dig into her mysterious connection to Demeter and Sicily, the destructive hunger of Erysichthon, and what the ancient Greeks may have understood about the very human desire for more. Then we’ll bring Adephagia into modern practice through correspondences, offerings, abundance and manifestation magic, shadow work around desire and consumption, a ritual of sacred indulgence, and a delicious Sicilian orange cake. So grab your tea, settle in, and come meet a nearly forgotten goddess Recipe Kofi Insta/TikTok: @witchbeneaththewillow

    Hazel Tree Magic: Wisdom, Folklore & the Celtic Tree Calendar

    We’re returning to tree magic beneath the willow. In the first installment of a new series exploring the Celtic tree calendar, we’re beginning with Hazel—a tree deeply rooted in wisdom, poetic inspiration, divination, and the mysteries of the Otherworld. We’ll explore Hazel’s place in the modern Celtic tree calendar and Ogham, the personality of those born beneath the Hazel, the Irish legend of the Salmon of Knowledge, fairy folklore, divining rods, wishing traditions, protective magic, and the many ways Hazel has been used throughout history. Then, in Living the Spell, we’ll bring that wisdom into our own practice with a simple spell for learning and understanding, hazelnut bread, and a magical hazelnut tea blend. Come sit beneath the willow as we follow Hazel from root to nut, folklore to spellwork, and knowledge into wisdom. @WitchBeneaththeWillow ⁠Kofi

    Signs & Stars: Leo's Personality, Magic, and Season's Energy

    Welcome to Signs & Stars, a brand new series beneath the willow. We’re beginning with Leo: the bold, fiery fifth sign of the zodiac, ruled by the Sun and symbolized by the lion. In this episode, we’re exploring what it means to be a Leo, from their confidence, creativity, loyalty, and natural magnetism to the more vulnerable side hiding beneath all that fire. We’ll trace the lion through ancient mythology, from Heracles and the Nemean Lion to Inanna, Ishtar, and Sekhmet, and explore why this animal has represented courage, protection, royalty, and solar power for thousands of years. Then we’ll turn our attention to Leo season itself and the magic available to all of us during this warm, radiant time of year. We’ll explore solar and fire magic, Leo correspondences, creativity, confidence, shadow work, simple seasonal practices, an enchanted necklace for courage, and a candle ritual for honoring your inner light. Whether Leo fills your birth chart or you simply want to work with the energy of the season, come sit beneath the willow as we learn what the lion can teach us about courage, creativity, pleasure, and allowing ourselves to be seen.

    Full Moon Magic: The Buck Moon (Growth, Courage, and Stepping into your Power)

    One year ago, I nervously hit "publish" on the very first episode of Witch Beneath the Willow. Today, we're celebrating one full year, our 50th episode, and the final installment in our Full Moon Magick series. What a beautiful moon to end on. Known as the Buck Moon, this July full moon is named for the season when deer grow their magnificent antlers—a symbol of strength, resilience, and the quiet, steady growth that happens one day at a time. Together we'll explore the history behind this moon, its many traditional names, the folklore of the Wort Moon and Thunder Moon, old weather lore, magical correspondences, and why this year's Buck Moon in Aquarius encourages us to find strength not only within ourselves, but within our communities as well. As we close this chapter, I also want to take a moment to celebrate what we've built together over the past year. Whether you've been here since the very first episode or you've only recently found your way beneath the willow, thank you for making this little community what it is. I truly couldn't have imagined this journey, and I'm so grateful you've chosen to walk it with me. Journal Prompts:• What does the most confident version of yourself look and feel like?• What is one short-term goal and one long-term goal you want to focus your energy on? What practical steps can you begin taking this week to move toward them? Thank you for joining me beneath the willow tree. I'll see you in Season Two. nsta and TikTok: @witchbeneaththewillow Kofi

    Grimoire of the Gods: Athena, Goddess of Wisdom, Strategy & Sacred Craft

    The audio in this episode sounds a little different than usual, and I wanted to acknowledge that right away. I’m recording from my new place after my recent move, and while I was hoping this setup would work, it’s safe to say… this isn’t it. Thank you for bearing with me while I get settled—I’ll be experimenting with a different recording space for next week to get us back to the cozy sound we’re used to. Athena is one of the most recognizable goddesses in Greek mythology, but she is so much more than simply the goddess of wisdom. She is the goddess of strategy, craftsmanship, justice, and thoughtful leadership—the calm voice that reminds us to pause before we act and to seek understanding before certainty. In this week's Grimoire of the Gods, we're exploring Athena's remarkable birth from the mind of Zeus, her rivalry with Poseidon for the city of Athens, the tragic story of Arachne, her role in the Trojan War, and why she became the trusted guide of so many legendary heroes. We'll also talk about her symbols and correspondences, signs she may be reaching out, and practical ways to honor her in a modern witchcraft practice. As always, we'll close with Living the Spell, where you'll find: A ritual to invite wisdom and clarity into your lifeAn Athena-inspired herbal tea blendA crafting invocation to weave protection and intention into every stitchSo pour yourself something warm, settle in beneath the willow, and let's turn another page in our Grimoire of the Gods together.

    Full Moon Magick: The Strawberry Moon

    The Strawberry Moon rises on June 29th, bringing with it the sweetness of early summer and a reminder that not everything beautiful is meant to last forever. In this episode, we're exploring the folklore and symbolism behind June's full moon, from its Indigenous roots and traditional names to its connections with love, abundance, and the fleeting joys of the season. We'll talk about the grounding influence of Capricorn, the magic of ripening, and why prosperity isn't always measured in money. Together, we'll explore correspondences, deity associations, and simple ways to work with this moon's energy through pleasure, play, and appreciation. We'll also discuss shadow work, a honey jar for joy, and a sweet little strawberry spell inspired by love, passion, and desire. So brew yourself a cup of tea, step outside into the summer evening, and join me beneath the willow tree as we celebrate the first full moon of summer. Journal Prompts Are my daily habits supporting the future I want to create?Where in my life do I need stronger boundaries?Is there guilt or shame preventing me from fully experiencing pleasure and joy?What sweetness do I want to invite into my life during this season?What brought me wonder as a child, and how can I reconnect with that feeling now?Blessed be.
