Hey Witch Hey...

No episode this week...We're taking a week or two mental health break... but we'll be back soon! Thank you all for understanding <3

Justina & Kristina

Brought to you by Magnolia Street Podcast 

Welcome to Charmed & Dangerous - True Crime: Where witchcraft and murder collide! It's where we uncover the dark esoteric secrets that lie just beneath the surface of seemingly ordinary, and what some may call.... "PRACTICAL" lives.  

Ever wonder what it would sound like, if the plot of the film Practical Magic were a real life True Crime?  

Today we're analyzing the story of The Nightshade Sisters: Sally & Gilian Owens, who are burdened by a centuries old family curse. Any man who dare love an Owen's woman, is doomed to die! As death follows them from relationship to relationship, they find themselves trapped in a web of witchcraft, lies, and eventually... MuRdEr! 

Sally struggles to get Jillian out of an abusive relationship... with a serial killer! Today, we'll also learn more about loverboy Jimmy Angelov's most prominent victim, Phoebe Stone and hear some testimonies from the people in her community who tell us how much she could "Light up a room!" 

The Stinas are hitting all the tropes of the True Crime genre with this very special Season 2 Finale Bonus Episode!  

 This Episode was inspired by our good friend and Patron, Lorie Reedy.

In Rules of Magic, Franny & Jet visit the Alchemy Tree; an ancient Red Oak Tree in Central Park. They cast their wishes on Samhain also known as All Hallow's Eve, the night when the veil between worlds is at its thinnest.

In this episode, we delve into the fascinating world of alchemy, occult philosophy, and natural magick through the symbolism of the Alchemy Tree in the novel Rules of Magic. Rooted in ancient mystical traditions, this metaphysical tree represents the stages of transformation in alchemy—from base material to spiritual enlightenment—mirroring the occultist’s journey of self-evolution and the pursuit of the Philosopher’s Stone.

Additionally, we take a deep dive into the magick of Red Oak trees—powerful symbols in both alchemical and magical traditions. Known for their strength, endurance, and deep-rooted energy, Red Oaks are sacred in many traditions for their connection to the earth and the heavens, representing the bridge between the physical and spiritual worlds.

Join us as we unravel how these two symbols—the Alchemy Tree and the Red Oak—converge in both ancient and modern magical traditions, offering insights into the deeper meanings behind transformation, nature, and spiritual growth in the world of Practical Magic.

This week on Magnolia Street, the Stinas are diving headfirst into the iconic symbol of witchcraft—cauldrons! Whether brewing up potions or stirring a hearty soup, the cauldron is a staple in every witch’s kitchen. Join us as we explore its appearances in both the Practical Magic books and movie, where a surprising discovery bubbles up—what are those mysterious floating objects in Aunt Franny’s pot? Spoiler alert: SOAP NUTS, anyone?

Next, we journey through history, mythology, and folklore to uncover the deep-rooted significance of cauldrons. From their ancient associations with transformation and fertility to the darker topic of Death by Boiling, we leave no stone unturned. But don’t worry—we’re balancing the spooky with some cozy! The Stinas also share their favorite soup recipes for those looking to stir up something comforting.

Whether you’re a practicing witch or a muggle in the kitchen, this episode covers the practical and magical uses of cauldrons, and why they remain a beloved symbol of witchy culture. Grab your spoons (and maybe your wands) and join us for a bubbling good time!

This week on Magnolia Street, the Stinas dive into the iconic symbol of witch hats. They explore the origins of this pointy headwear, tracing its history and evolution through time. From ancient folklore to modern interpretations, the Stinas unravel the mystery behind the shape, style, and symbolism of witch hats.

We'll then discuss why author Alice Hoffman decided to leave the pointy witch hat stereotype out of her book series, and comb through the movie to explore the many "practical" hats the Aunts seem to don in the garden or around Maria's Island. And of course, we're chatting out those iconic pointy black hats in the film's finale!

Whether in the world of magic or the everyday muggle world, the Stinas discuss what these hats represent today and how they've become a staple of witchy culture.

In today's episode, we delve into the mysterious and magical connection between black cats and the world of witchcraft. In Alice Hoffman’s Practical Magic book series and the beloved film adaptation, black cats aren’t just pets—they’re a constant and a subliminal source of support for the Owens women.

Join us as we explore the role of Magpie, the black cat who quietly weaves through Sally and Gillian Owens' lives. We’ll be doing some "catspotting," tracking Magpie’s appearances from shadowy corners to critical moments when the Owens sisters face danger or heartache.

Our cats are our protectors in times of peril, and companions in both magic and love. Along the way, we’ll unravel the ancient superstitions and enduring myths that have kept black cats intertwined with witches for centuries.

Is the black cat a mere guardian, or does Magpie’s presence hold deeper meaning in the fate of the Owens family? Join us, and you might find yourself seeing black cats in a whole new light. The Stinas also share stories of their own feline familiars!

In the second installment of our "Witch's Garden Series", we're diving deep into the world of baneful herbs. Join us as we explore where these dangerous plants make an appearance in Practical Magic, both the movie and the books. We'll uncover the mysteries behind their toxins, examine the look-alikes that can easily deceive, and share the folklore and witchcraft associated with them.

Plus, we'll journey through history to discuss how these herbs were used—and misused—in various cultures, including famous plant poisonings in pop culture and news through the ages.

"Do you always trust your first initial feeling?"

On today's episode, The Stinas explore the psychic spiritual phenomenon known as the Clairs: Clairvoyance, Clairsentience, Clairaudience, Claircognizance, just to name a few. We'll analyze all of these fascinating abilities and learn how The Owens family use their own intuitive gifts to navigate the mundane real world in the Practical Magic Film.

Justina and Kristina both share personal experiences of their own psychic gifts before welcoming Magnolia Street's resident research assistant & certified Hypnotherapist and expert in Spiritual Attachments & Release, Christa Rimmer.

Christa shares with us her personal experiences in utilizing The Clairs to work with clients and their spiritual attachments. She also inspires and encourages newbie witches to work their intuitive muscles to strengthen their own psychic abilities...

All this, plus an odd coincidental Linda Bennett connection, and MORE!
