Desperate House Witches (Desperate House Witches)

Test show, not sure if this will air or not :)

We will be discussing what brought us to the craft. We may even be treated to Raina's segment, "Bitch Please!"

We will be continuing our conversation about money. Change your way of thinking about it and ways to try to attract it.

Sometimes it's not always a dish best served cold.  When is okay to seek revenge? Is justice considered dark magick? Since this topic has come up a lot lately we've decided to switch this weeks show to discuss these topics.

Our episode about love and Spring Equinox was unfortunately delayed due to phone problems, so we are giving it another shot tonight.

We will be discussing the magickal and amazing wood working skill of Mr. Grillo of Shards Yggdrasil! please check out his works at http://www.facebook.com/ShardsofYggdrasil

We will just be chatting, maybe take a few callers and be all around greatful for what has come and gone in our lives. Especially the departure of Mercury Retrograde!!

We are very happy to have the multi talented Kelly Curtis Spangler joining us! She is a Psychic, Medium, Clairvoyant, Witch and Paranormal Investigator. When she's not doing readings at Hex/Omen (http://salemhex.com/) in Salem, MA, you can catch her chasing spooks and sprites with her paranormal investigative team, Salem Spirit Seekers (http://www.salemspiritseekers.com/), OR as the Producer of Hex Education (http://www.blogtalkradio.com/hexeducation) here on Blogtalk Radio on Wed. nights!

How do you deal with having a significant other who is of a different religion or none at all. We'll be discussing ways that we have dealt with it in the past and continuing into future situations. We'll also be talking about the in-law situation....to stay in the broom closet or not to.

We will be discussing the waxing power of the Sun as we hit the halfway point to Summer Solstice. How will you celebrate? Like Samhain, the otherworld will be close at hand. So break out your May Poles, stoke the Bale fires, dust off the fertility rituals and make with the merriment!

We'll be talking about Fairies and our personal experiences with them. What should you look for when trying to find the Fey Folk yourself? Have you maybe already seen them and not known it? 

Every once in a while a witch has got to bitch! It's been a loooong week & we need to get some stuff off our chests. 

Does a witch need to have a black cat in order for it to be considered a familiar? What is a familiar anyway? Do you even need one?  We'll be talking about these questions and delve into the animal kingdom and the other side to find out all about familiars.

Come listen in to Raina & Dorian chatting about everything under the Sun. Feel free to call in and add to the mad tea party.

The shift is coming. As witches, most of us feel we need to be an active part of our own destiny....so what happens when our spells don't work and our attempted manifestations don't come to fruition? We don't want to seem like we're just waiting for the Gods to answer us like the X-tians...why not? They took their cue from us after all. Instead of rejecting the fact that this was not meant to be or something better is coming try listening.   We are going to go over personal experiences explaining how the Gods are still listening and guiding you in ways you don't expect.

Raina will be calling in from the Eight Winds Festival. http://adfnorthwest.weebly.com/eight-winds-2012.html   We are just going to be chit chatting, she just happens to be at the event :)
