Join me as we step beneath the rare and mysterious energy of the Blue Moon.

In this episode we explore the folklore, magic, spiritual symbolism and liminal energy surrounding one of the rarest moons within the lunar calendar. Together we journey through the history of the Blue Moon, its connections to manifestation, endings, transformation, heightened intuition and the thinning veil between worlds.

We discuss the Blue Moon through the lens of witchcraft, folk magick, Hoodoo, Wicca and ancient folklore, exploring themes surrounding release work, powerful manifestation, ancestral energy, the fae, the banshee, the Dullahan and spiritual thresholds.

Within this episode we also explore -

• the origins and meaning of the Blue Moon
• why this moon is considered so spiritually potent
• Blue Moon folklore and magical beliefs
• lunar manifestation and release work
• the Blue Moon as a cosmic turning point
• intuition, divination, and dream work beneath the moon
• the connection between the Blue Moon and the Otherworld
• magical correspondences, herbs, crystals, and ritual ideas
• journal prompts and tarot reflections
• how to work with the rare energy of this moon in your own practice

Alongside this episode you will also find a companion guided meditation titled The Blue Moon Threshold — a journey to meet your future self beneath the Blue Moon on New Year’s Eve 2028.

In this month’s Circle on Thursday 28th May from 7pm within the Witches Who Run With the Wolves tier, we gather beside the tides to reclaim the lost skin of the self.

Together we will journey through a guided selkie meditation of remembrance and return — a journey into the deep waters of intuition, identity, longing, and reclamation.

This circle may stir themes of reclaiming hidden parts of yourself, releasing old identities, reconnecting with intuition, and remembering who you were before survival became your shape.

The circle will include a guided selkie meditation, journal prompts, tarot and oracle reflection. I will pull cards for the collective circle, and you are very welcome to bring your own tarot or oracle cards to pull for yourself during the evening.

A Zoom link will be posted on the morning of the circle and a replay will be available the following day for those unable to attend live.

This gathering is available through the Witches Who Run With the Wolves tier on Patreon.

In today’s episode we descend beneath the tides to explore the world of mermaids — their folklore, symbolism and the magic that surrounds them.

This episode also ties into my current Sea Witch work and upcoming Litha zine The Book of Tides, where we explore mermaids, selkies, water magic, sea folklore and the many sacred forms of magical water used within witchcraft and folk practice.

Over on Patreon this month we descend beneath the tides with our new theme - Sea Witch.

Throughout May we will be exploring the magic of the sea through guided meditation, folklore, plant magic, ritual, glamour, tides and oceanic witchcraft. Together we will journey into the liminal space between shore and sea, working with the subconscious, emotional alchemy and the deep, magnetic energy of the ocean.

This month includes a guided meditation journey beneath the waves, sea plant lore exploring kelp and bladderwrack, a deep dive podcast episode on sea witchcraft and a Sea Witch Glamour & Power ritual focused on embodiment, magnetism, beauty and feminine ocean energy.

On this episode we are stepping into the strange, earthy and folkloric energy of May Witchcraft.

We begin with Lily of the Valley after my mum recently gifted one to me for my garden and naturally, I ended up completely falling down the rabbit hole of its folklore and magical associations. Together we explore the flowers connections to faery folklore, protection, divination, springtime traditions, connected deities, old Christian symbolism, weddings, luck, death omens and the return of happiness. Despite its delicate appearance Lily of the Valley carries an incredibly liminal energy and has long been associated with the veil between worlds.

From there we descend underground into the world of coal and charcoal magic. Lately I have been feeling much more earthy and grounded within my practice, perhaps because of Taurus season but also because I have been spending so much time gardening, growing herbs and reconnecting with the soil again. This led me towards wanting to explore the simple but powerful ingredients that would once have been accessible within everyday folk magic — things like salt, charcoal and coal.

We look at the magical uses of coal and charcoal throughout history including protection, grounding, purification, banishing, prosperity work and spiritual cleansing alongside old folk beliefs surrounding miners, omens and underground spirits.

Finally we finish with haunted mining folklore and ghost stories inspired by the folk horror novel Scratch Moss by David Barnett. Expect tales of Knockers, phantom miners, eerie omens, ghostly hands carrying candles through the tunnels, spectral black dogs, Bluecap spirits and the strange supernatural folklore that grew from the deep mines beneath the earth.

So make yourself a cup of tea, settle in and join me for this wonderfully strange journey into May Witchcraft.

Hello Witches

In this episode we explore the energy of the Flower Moon — a time of growth and fertility.

This full moon is deeply connected to the fertile pulse of the Earth, making it a powerful point in the lunar cycle for both manifestation and inner expansion. We look at how to work with this energy in a way that feels supportive and aligned rather than overwhelming.

Inside this episode I share -

• The spiritual and energetic themes of the Flower Moon
• How this lunar phase supports growth, abundance and renewal
• A grounded approach to manifestation and intention setting
• The role of shadow work in allowing yourself to fully receive
• Simple ways to work with this moon through ritual, tarot and journaling

This is a moon that invites both action and awareness — a balance between tending to what is ready to bloom and gently releasing what may still be holding you back.

You may also wish to listen alongside the Flower Moon Meditation on my YouTube channel to deepen your experience and integrate the themes explored in this episode.

Hello Witches

In this episode we look at Witch’s Salt, one of the most ancient, powerful and accessible tools in magickal practice.

We explore the many forms salt can take, from sea salt and Himalayan pink salt to black salt, kosher salt and beyond. Looking at how each can be worked with in spellcraft, ritual and everyday magick including how to create your own black salt, a potent protective blend rooted in folk tradition.

We journey through the sacred history of salt across different religions and cultures, uncovering its role in ritual, purification and protection. Along the way we touch on old superstitions of witches, the devil, spilled salt and various different folklore.

We also dive into mythology exploring deities connected to salt including those from Aztec and Mesopotamian traditions and the powerful stories woven around them.

Finally we look at creative ways to work with salt in your own practice, blending your own magical salts for different intentions from protection to glamour.

Hello Witches

On this episode we are looking at two different flowers you could work with that are perfect to plant during this month - cornflowers and hollyhocks.

Hollyhock stands at the edges of the home, a traditional guardian of thresholds. It carries the energy of protection and abundance.

Cornflower carries the magic of intuition, clarity and inner sight. Its vivid blue has long been linked to the third eye supporting divination and deeper perception.

In Slavic folklore we meet Habernitsa, the Cornflower Wraith. A noon spirit said to dwell in the fields. She reminds us that the spirit world often meets us in unexpected ways.

Cornflower also appears in the story of Chiron, the wise centaur, who used its healing properties after being wounded by a poisoned arrow during the chaos of Heracles’ battle with the nine-headed serpent, the Hydra.

We also look at the owl, a guide between worlds. It represents deep, earned wisdom often found in stillness. Its presence reminds us to trust what we sense, even when it cannot yet be explained.

Our book review is Hungerstone by Kat Dunn.
