Happy Thursday! Today the Coven is revisiting the concept of death figures. Poppy tells us about three animal psychopomps guiding the dead to the afterlife across the globe.

Happy Thursday and welcome to Death Coven! This week, River tells the tumultuous tale of the Loudun possessions, during which a gaggle of French nuns got....freaky. Skye brings to the table a discussion of the current states of our witchcraft practices and what it means to live as a witch (even when you don't feel all that connected). Finally, Poppy takes us back to Appalachia to tell us the true story of the Greenbrier Ghost.

Hello dreamers! Grab your sleepy time tea and snuggle up because this week, Poppy is leading us through our second oneiromancy episode. We'll review the basics of dream divination and talk about how to step up our analysis game to decode the messages we divine. Then we'll analyze some of our own dreams together (orcas and zombies and poop, oh my!). Finally, we'll get into lucid dreaming (what, why, and, most importantly, how...) and discuss receiving messages and meeting dream guides.

Welcome back listeners! This week the coven is getting a little bit susceptible and easily manipulated, join us as Skye walks us through her epic but short lived cruise ship cult, Poppy makes us play MASH to see what hand crafted cult we end up with at the end of the day, and then we get to play build-a-cult at the end as Skye and Poppy help River flesh out the bones of their cult.

Listener discretion advised for talks of cults and cult tactics and brief mentions of suicide, if you're sensitive to either of these subjects maybe skip this episode, we'll see you on the next one <3

I spy with my little eye......some silly little guys! Gather 'round if you'd like to get goofy with us as we chat about three little guys that we think are just the silliest. 

First, we'll spread the cheeks of the Shirime, a devilish yokai of Japanese folklore who would love to play a little peek-a-boo with you. Then we'll take a stop in the real world to hear about a heroic pup from World War I, Sergeant Stubby. Finally, we'll travel through ye olde bestiaries to meet a tasty little zoophyte, the Vegetable Lamb of Tartary! 

If you'd like to skip today's Hypothetical (she's a thick one), it ends at 19:38.

It's raining Men, Money, and Magma today, little witchlings! Today's episode starts out with a hypothetical based on a dream Poppy had, (if you'd like to skip the hypothetical-I don't know why you would-you can jump to 20:00) then Poppy starts us off with yet another absolutely diabolical true tale of individuals who just nearly escaped death while inside of an active volcano. Then River takes the stage reminding us that we are in control of our finances and how, as witches, we can harness our power and utilize the tools we have at our disposal to Get Our Money Up $$$!!! Finally, Skye finishes out with taking the gang through a portal, back in time, to 2006 where the coven has a sleepover and takes era-appropriate Y2K quizzes and finds out what kind of witches they are.

It's a long and silly one today folks, so buckle up, get your chili and your cornbread cookin' and settle into this week of Death Coven! >xD

Welcome back dear listeners! Buckle up because River is On One for this installment of Death Coven. The focus of todays episode is the controversial "psychic medium" Sylvia Browne and her many egregious claims. If you get very upset about people taking blatant advantage of others (same) proceed with caution, because Sylvia was a terrible person. RIP!
