24 Sep 2024 | Episode 4: What's The Devil Got to Do With It? | 00:38:34 | |
Episode 04: The Devil & Witchcraft Summary: In this episode, Kristal and Kate address the belief that the Devil is somehow associated with witchcraft and witches. They explore where that myth came from, the impact of it and the myth in the present day. Show Notes Intro & Invocation of the Horned God by Doreen Valiente (0:00-4:36) Kristal and Kate open by sharing their early reactions to witchcraft. They describe the role of Satan as the adversary. The Bible and, therefore, the idea of Satan, is rooted in a Near Eastern and Abrahamic religion context. The concept evolved from Djinn trickster spirits to the earthy, horned gods of the Mediterranean and, eventually, those of Europe and the British Isles. (4:37-12:34) The war on those horned gods led to the Medieval witch hunts, which was an excuse to target women, the keepers of old knowledge. This launched us into a spiritual dark ages. The Malleus Maleficarum (written in 1486) was obsessed with women’s sexuality and originally denounced, but later adopted as the definitive demonology resource. The impact has been the suppression of women. (12:35-19:40) Christianity has removed duality from the trickster/adversary god concept and created a one-dimensional devil, giving it dominion over other people’s rights and freedoms. As a result, women today are trying to heal from this one-sidedness and bring the Divine Feminine back to equal standing with the Divine Masculine. (19:41-26:28) So what’s the Devil got to do with it? Control. The concepts of evil, sin and shame load people down and compromise their agency. (26:29-28:24) Kristal and Kate wrap up with a discussion about the current status of the Devil. They touch on Satanism, which is quite atheistic and humanist, and the Satanic Panic of the 1980s and 90s, which was eventually debunked. The continued position of Satan in the world steals agency and underscores patriarchy, capitalism and white supremacy.

01 Oct 2024 | Episode 5: Guardians at the Gate: Crafting Protections & Wards | 00:47:28 | |
Guardians at the Gate: Crafting Protections & Wards Summary: In this episode, Kristal and Kate chat about wards and protections. They discuss deities, spirits, objects and symbols typically used, and then share wards and protections they use for themselves. Show Notes Intro & Invocation (0:00-5:18) Wards are important basics of witchcraft for protecting your energies. Mostly not from attack, but simply from the tangles and smudges of daily life. Kristal describes salt as the most basic protection tool because it contains all the elements: earth, water, fire and air. Be sure to cleanse before you set up a ward so you don’t trap the old energy in with you. (5:19-15:01) You can also work with spirits and deities for your protection. Think of the spirit of your home (or car) as a partner in protection. Kate shares a story of inviting a domovoy to protect her front door. Kristal works closely with the spirit of her home as part of her daily practice. She delves into the wards she places on her land. (15:02-21:10) Symbols that are good for warding: pentagram, pentacle, equal armed cross, symbol of the horned god, and symbol of the triple goddess. (21:11-23:56) You can bless and charge things you put on your body to make them wards, such as jewelry, tattoos, glasses, medicine, bodily fluids, face wash, or you can make spell jars or talismans to carry with you. You can smoke cleanse with wood, incense, resins, herbs because once again, it contains all the elements. (25:37-34:04) Kristal and Kate go on a delightful tangent about tampons and blood magic before Kristal instructs on making protective spell jars. (34:05-40:10) They discuss the difference between protecting person vs. property. Usually, when it’s about land and property, it’s less visible or less conspicuous. They share their personal strategies and tools. (40:11-46:01) Final thoughts and call-to-action: Tell us about the wards and protections you’re making Preview of next week's episode: Hearthcraft & House Witchery Outro (46:46-47:28) Resources mentioned during the episode Lumen Moon, a new store in Bremerton, WA Links to all our social media @witchingout Links to all our social media

08 Oct 2024 | Episode 6: Sacred Spaces: Enchanting your Home with Hearthcraft | 00:38:25 | |
Episode 06: Sacred Spaces: Enchanting your Home Summary: In this episode, Kristal and Kate discuss the home as sacred, magical space and your spiritual headquarters. They discuss the role of the kitchen in hearthcraft and share their experiences with their homes. Kate introduces Feng Shui as a tool for hearthcraft. Show Notes Intro & Invocation (0:00-1:32) Hearthcraft is different from kitchen witchery, even though the hearth is often centered in a kitchen and Kate is drawn to homemaking and homekeeping. Kristal, on the other hand, loves kitchen witchery. Historically, the kitchen was the center of the home and it still is today. The cauldron is associated with the imagery of the kitchen and hearthcraft. And there’s a great deal of intentionality in food prep, tool maintenance and the animism of even modern appliances. When you’re caring for your tools, you’re caring for your hearth. (10:28-22:20) Feng Shui can be a powerful tool in hearthcraft and Kate recently took a class in it. Feng Shui is based on a 9-square overlay to your floorplan called the Bagua Map and you can intentionally use those home regions to influence corresponding areas of your life. (22:21-28:40) Clearing and cleansing and purifying your home is a great way to bless and connect with your home. Homes can also have household spirits and deities in addition to the overall spirit of the home. Kate works with Hestia and a domovoy and Kristal works predominantly with her ancestors. Things outside the house can also support your connection with your home, such as statuary or trees. They become allies in your work.

22 Oct 2024 | Episode 8: Embracing the Shadow: Shadow Work for Empowerment in Money, Love & Magick | 00:34:19 | |
Summary: In this episode, Kristal and Kate discuss shadow work, which is integrating those parts of ourselves we’d rather not acknowledge. Facing our shadow parts can be a powerful way to tap into a more integrated Show Notes Kate lays down some technical definitions around shadow work and its origins. Shadow work is uncovering hidden parts of the psyche and healing from old wounds. Kristal shares her process recovering her anger, for which she’d be taught to feel a lot of shame. They touch on shame and Kate’s particular shadow work journey has been around body shame. (3:11-9:04) Shadow work is also essential for processing trauma and unraveling the socialization we have around money, relationships and sexuality. These unprocessed messages become limiting beliefs and when you’re trying to do magic, limiting beliefs can get in the way. If you’re trying to attract money but you think money is the root of all evil, you won’t succeed. (9:05-10:25) They list ways to recognize when you’re experiencing a shadow part. Doing shadow work helps you realize your triggers so you can pause before you react. Shadow work benefits witches by removing barriers that hold us back from manifesting our magical work. We need to match our vibration to the thing we want to have in our life. You can raise your vibration and also recognize the energy of what you’re working with. (10:26-15:09) Doing energy work builds compassion for others and if you will serve others as a witch, compassion is essential so you can meet people where they are. Becoming fluent in shadow work helps you move through the triggered state faster. Lean into that state, be curious about it and ask when it needs to tell you. (15:10-18:25) Practices for shadow work include inner child work and soul retrieval. Kristal and Kate share their experiences with these. A therapist is a good idea for inner child work and a shaman or energy healer is a good idea for soul retrieval. Integrating with these parts of ourselves makes us more complete and gives us a better chance at self-actualization. This healing echoes forward and backward in time, across generations. (18:26-22:48) Journaling, guided meditations, journey work, deity work are also strong practices for shadow work. Deity work is using archetypes who have specialized aspects and skills that c Links to all our social media

Kristal gives a background on Kabbalah and introduces the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram (LBRP).

Then she introduces the banishing pentacle gesture. She walks through the hand positions in correspondence with the words and then leads through each direction. Kate interrupts to clarify that archangels and Biblical creatures pre-date Christianity and the two discuss using symbols that pre-date the oppression we feel around them today. After finishing the tutorial, Kristal shares her own experience of the LBRP. **Please excuse the poor sound quality of the chanting and vibration. This is not recording properly on our current platform. Head to our Instagram Page @Witchingoutloud for a video tutorial by Kristal pinned at the top of the page.

19 Nov 2024 | Episode 12: Intuitive Living: How to Trust and Develop Your Inner Knowing | 00:56:09 | |
Episode 12: Intuitive Living: How to Trust and Develop Your Inner Knowing What is intuition? It’s not the taught kind of knowledge; it’s a complementary way of knowing. We exhibit intuitive reasoning as young as one year old and develop it through pattern matching. You feel your intuition in your body and it can be strengthened. (6:06-17:19) Because we are all one and connected, we have access to knowledge that’s encoded and passed down from generation to generation. (17:20-20:44) Intuition is complementary to analytical thinking. Intuition relies on both, building on learned behavior and gathered data. A mindfulness practice strengthens intuition and shadow work provides the opportunity to run mini intuitive experiments to confirm new patterns. (20:45-25:29) The mind-gut connection. We receive intuition first in our heart, then our brain, and finally our gut. Essentially, we have three brains and they work seamlessly together. Your digestive system is a nervous system in and of itself. (25:30-34:51) Meditation is one of the best ways to build your intuition. Word play, time recall, and flashcards are good exercises, too. Kate shares her experience as a child in Mormonism with the promptings of the Holy Ghost. Ask your guides/the Universe for signs and synchronicities and as you notice more often, you confirm your data. Psychometry is reading what is attached to an object. You can also try automatic writing in response to a question and dream recall. (34:52-53:18) Final thoughts and call-to-action: How are you building your intuition? Preview of next week's episode: The Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram Outro (54:52-56:09) Resources mentioned during the episode 12th Monkey Project (Actually called the 100th Monkey Effect, Kristal’s memory was only partially correct) You can check out the overview and details here on Wikipedia: 10 Links to all our social media

Episode 15: Five-Pointed Power: The Mystical Uses of Pentagrams and Pentacles Summary: In this episode, Kristal and Kate unpack the power and uses of five starred shapes: pentagrams and pentacles. Show Notes Intro & Invocation (0:00-3:20) The 11th Book of the Golden Ass by Apuleius - The Vision of Isis Kate talks about the history of the pentagram and Kristal unwraps how it became a symbol of evil (spoiler alert: the patriarchy!). They discuss how it’s used in the modern era, depending on pagan paths. They also touch on the distortion of protective symbols and the resulting religious trauma. (3:21-15:32) Pentagrams are used for invoking and banishing. Kristal describes how to invoke and banish elementals using pentagrams drawn with your hands in the air. They chat about the word banishing and resistance that might be felt about that word. They innovate on using banishing to even say farewell to people we like: banished, with love, from Kate and Kristal. (15:33-24:15) Kristal introduces the difference between pentacles and pentagrams (pentacles are pentagrams in a circle) and discusses her uses of each. Kate explores ways she might get past her discomfort with pentagrams and begin to work with the shape.
