In this episode of Becoming Witchy, we’re brewing up a magical winter potion, Fire Cider! This spicy, warming apple cider vinegar tonic is a staple for the colder months, offering both immune support and a bit of extra magic. The fiery herbs and roots used in Fire Cider are not only powerful for physical wellness, but also carry protective energy in the spiritual and emotional realms. It’s my go-to potion for keeping the chills and any lurking ghouls of the dark half of the year at bay.

In this episode of Becoming Witchy, we explore the magical properties of rue (Ruta graveolens)—a powerful herb long associated with protection and cleansing.

Known for its ability to ward off negativity, rue carries a potent, boundary-setting energy. I share how growing this herb in my own garden has deepened my connection to it and strengthened my understanding of its protective magic.

In this episode of Becoming Witchy, we explore the magic of seasonal transitions—the in-between moments when nature shifts and the veil feels thinner. These thresholds remind us of the beauty and power of change. We’ll talk about why humans across cultures have long seen these times as sacred, marking them with ancestor rituals, protective festivals, and celebrations of transformation.

Whether you’re noticing the turning leaves, the ripening of fruit, or the lengthening of nights, seasonal transitions invite us to pause, honor the cycles of life and death, and embrace the magic of endings and beginnings.

In this episode of Becoming Witchy, we return to the sabbat of Lughnasadh (or Lammas)—the first harvest festival on the Wheel of the Year. While Episode 20 covered its history and folklore, this time we’re focusing on modern celebrations, seasonal rituals, and the personal traditions I’ve cultivated around this lush, transitional time of year.

We’ll talk garden updates, decorating with intention, kitchen witchcraft (hello tomato season!) and ways to work with themes of abundance, gratitude, and preparation. In our ritual that works we’re making an oil for enhancing intuition you can craft now for the darker half of the year.
