On episode 15 of the Magick and Alchemy Podcast, hosts Kristin Lisenby and Kate Belew delve into plant magick with some help from the Celtic Tree Calendar. They talk about faery trees, weaving a solar amulet, and working with plants in a sustainable and regenerative manner. They also explore the myth and lore surrounding Rowan, Elder, and the current tree of the month, the Ash Tree.Created by Tamed Wild.Production by KT Herr.Music by Follow the Wind,Taizo Audio.
