In this Lughnasadh 2025 episode, the witches celebrate the first harvest and the lessons woven into this sacred turning of the Wheel. They honor Tailtiu, the earth goddess whose hard work cleared the land for future generations, and reflect on how her story calls us to roll up our sleeves and tend our own lives with care and intention.

But this year we remember that Tailtiu worked herself to death, and that honoring her means not only embracing hard work, but also learning the sacred art of self-care. They share ways to find balance during this busy season, from simple magical routines to small rituals of rest that keep your energy grounded and sustainable.

They also honor Lugh, the bright and many-skilled god, and the sun’s golden power that ripens the fields. Crafts take center stage this year, with a special focus on drying and preserving herbs, a timeless way to honor the harvest while stocking your magical pantry for the months ahead. Whether you’re baking bread, crafting charms, or simply watching the August sun dip low, this episode invites you to honor the work, the rest, and the magick of this abundant season.
