Join us for an empowering episode of THE CIRCLE IS podCAST with Rachel True and Mat Auryn as we welcome the incomparable T. Thorn Coyle. A lifelong magickal practitioner, activist, and author of both nonfiction and witchy fiction, Thorn brings decades of experience to a powerful conversation about art, justice, and magick as tools for transformation. We dive into the creation of their paranormal cozy mystery series, the healing potential of storytelling, and how fiction can serve as a potent magickal act. Thorn shares how activism, imagination, and enchantment intersect in both their writing and spiritual practice. Rachel and Mat reflect with Thorn on the current sociopolitical climate, the danger of despair, and the urgent need for action rooted in compassion. We talk sigils, spellcraft, and the sacred duty of showing up—even when it’s uncomfortable. They open up about what it means to stand tall in a world trying to shrink you, and how mundane action and magickal vision can align. From calling senators to feeding neighbors, we explore how resistance looks in real life and why community magick matters. Whether you're looking for practical tools, a moment of solidarity, or simply permission to protect your light and still shine, this episode holds space for it all.
