In this captivating episode of "Back on the Broomstick," hosts Laylla and Chelle delve deep into the enigmatic Rule of Three, sometimes called the Threefold Law or the Law of Returns. Have you ever been curious about the true essence of this witchy principle, its origins, and its role in contemporary witchcraft? The witches have it covered.

They unravel the threads of the Rule of Three, a fundamental concept in the craft that suggests whatever energy a witch puts out into the world, be it good or bad, returns to them threefold. But where did this idea start? Is it an age-old wisdom or a modern invention? From its first mention in Gerald Gardner's writings to its widespread acceptance (and sometimes skepticism) in contemporary witchcraft, we trace the journey of this intriguing rule.

And it's not just about history and concepts! Laylla reflects on the unexpected results of her hot foot spells, questioning if the Rule of Three is weaving its enigmatic influence. Meanwhile, Chelle shares her own spellbinding tales, including that time she hexed her exes - did the universe serve her a triple slice of cosmic justice?

Together, we debate how applicable the Rule of Three is to the life of a modern witch. Is it a literal law, a useful guideline, or perhaps a bit of both? Does the universal "sky daddy" really keep score, or are we witches solely responsible for our magical actions and their repercussions?

This episode offers a lively, insightful, and sometimes humorous look at one of witchcraft's most talked-about principles.
