This week weāre saying goodbye to November, and very soon we will say goodbye to Season 08 of That Witch Podcast! On this week in the US also falls Thanksgiving Thursday, a day layered with all kinds of heavy, contrasting, and complex roots, ideas, and concepts. Instead of being on my soapbox today (Iāll save it for another š¤£), I want to create and hold a space of gratitude, and offer you a message you can carry with you into the weeks and even months ahead š ā || T H E N E I G H B O R H O O D || Watch full episodes on my YouTube channel !

Should I work with a deity? Do I have to work with deities? How do I know if a deity wants to work with me? These are all questions Iāve been asked or Iāve seen asked more than almost anything else in the pagan and witchcraft communities. Over the last two months weāve spent our time together on That Witch Podcast building a foundation of knowledge, reference, and context thatās been preparing us for this very subject! So Iām very excited to share my thoughts and my experience on working with deities with you. Todayās episode is meant to give you a well-rounded understanding to take whatever next steps feel right for you. After listening you may realize you absolutely want to work with a deity, or it may confirm that itās not the path for youāeither way, awesome! This isnāt a spiritual path that should be taken without deep resonance, reverence, and respect. ā If you listen to this episode and absolutely want to learn more about working with deities in your witchcraft and spiritual practice, I will be teaching a live deities workshop inside my membership, That Witch School! This will be available LIVE to Essentials and All-Access members only , and will be listed later for purchase to the public later this year on my website :) ā || T H E N E I G H B O R H O O D || Watch full episodes on my YouTube channel !

Another retrograde season is upon us, and as usual I feel like this is one of those times as an astrologer where I feel itās important to recenter the focus on the purpose of the retrograde, rather than dwelling solely on the negative aspects. On todayās Moonday Musings episode, Iāll be offering you some helpful prompts for uncovering what any retrograde period means for you in your life, along with some tips for working with this energy in your birth chart. In this episode I mention: Retrograde Journal Prompts My previous episode on Retrograde Cycles That Witch Schoolās Retrogrades 101 resourceāavailable to all membership levels. ā Not a member of That Witch School yet?

The preparation and consumption of food and drink have been considered sacred and powerful practices since deeply ancient times. There's a universality to kitchen and cooking magick that bridges even the greatest distances. In modern witchcraft there can be a common misconception that you have to have a cooking background or a natural affinity to baking to be a kitchen witch, when in reality this is a path for truly ANYONE. Today I'm joined by Dawn Hunt, kitchen witch and owner of Cucina Auroraāa proudly magickal manufacturer of intentionally crafted foods. In this episode you'll learn that it doesn't require any culinary school or professional kitchen experience to start and grow a successful food brand. Dawn shares with our neighborhood her passion for not only food, but for a purpose-driven life in generalāand reminding us that some of our biggest, most powerful magick is in the small and simple moments. ā Follow Dawn on social media! @cucinaaurora ā Browse the incredible Cucina Aurora shop ! ā || T H E N E I G H B O R H O O D || Watch full episodes on my YouTube channel !

Samhain (pronounced āsah-wenā) and All Hallowās Eve is upon us, witches! And for most energy workers and magickal practitioners, we can feel something distinct in the air and energy around us this time of year. There is a natural pull to work with spirits and to connect with the dead. Sometimes this is experienced simply through the form of curiosity, and sometimes it feels more like a deeper call to purpose. In todayās episode Iām going to walk you through a safe, responsible, ethical, and still effective approach to work with the dead, to honor spirits, and to respect ghosts. Helping you get clear on your own personal motives, where and when the best time for this work is, and how you can get started going about this sacred practice. If you havenāt already, make sure you go back and listen to 191 Getting Safely Started in Spirit Communication & Death Witchery , which has some really helpful basics. You might also enjoy these other past episodes as well: 145 Are You a Death Witch? 043 Life, Death, & Rebirth - The Curious World of Oddities with Cera Marquez ā That Witch School members can also listen to the bonus episode, A Death Witchās Take on Modern Samhain š Not a member of That Witch School?

October is coming to a close, and along with it the thinning of the veil to the spirit realm. This month was filled with deep magick, and making time for some intentional reflection is a beautiful way to integrate all youāve been learning from your experiences. This time of Samhain and All Hallowās Eve is powerful for releasing all that weāre shedding and carrying forward only that which is serving our highest good.
