Befana Night

Selena Fox and guest Raven Grimassi (1951-2019) examine lengends, symbols, traditions, and magic of La Befana, who brings gifts and blessings to children of Italy and elsewhere on Her night, January 5, Epiphany Eve.  Explore the ancient Pagan origins of this beloved Italian Christmas Witch and similarities with other Yuletide Crone goddesses, such as roman Strenua, Alpine German Perchta & Russian Baboushka.
