Hey, y’all: this one is a little salty. As a Gen X witch, pop culture tends to weave itself through my understanding of most things, including my childhood. No one example was more powerful than Laurie Strode. That character taught me more about survival than any other, and for that I am eternally grateful. So, regardless of the gore, the cinematic cringe, and the poor ratings: something inherently vital was instilled in me while watching Halloween in 1978. While I had other models of strength as life moved along (RBG, Gloria Steinhem, my grandma), none prepared me to fight the boogeyman like Laurie Strode. So, bear with me.

This one is a doozy. Love y’all!

Well, y’all: I say it a lot. Even put it on a coaster, lol! Today, I’m breaking down exactly what it means to me to witchify ‘ary damn thang. To see the world through my witchy glasses is to pull magic back into focus in all things, all day, all the time. This little ritual has saved me, over and over, from the horrors and dust of the mundane.

Happy Veil Thinning, y’all!

Hey, y’all! Snuggle up on the porch and let me tell you how I got my ass into hot water with my ancestors on vacation. Racism can pop up in the strangest places—and so, we need to be ready to go to battle on the turn of a dime. Also, a dear listener of mine wrote in about what it’s like to be queer while moving through the stages of cronehood, or is it haghood? Love y’all!

Well, y’all: I barely got this one recorded before running off to my happy place on the coast. The chat on the porch is more of a wandering today down the backroads of the stories that have knitted my life together. Remember to stay for the moments after sunset . . . sometimes, that’s where the fun is.

Love y’all! Seba

Hey y’all! Snuggle up on the porch and let’s chat about all those warning signs, all those moments, in which we see a situation going south—but just cannot bring ourselves to do anything about it. Personally, I’m guilty of this all too often. Let’s work on those boundaries a bit earlier, a bit harder, and save ourselves a lot of heartache.

Hey, Y’all. Well, it’s begun. I couldn’t stand it in here anymore and the dust bunnies were killing my allergies. I’m coming out, and it’s been a long, hard ride to get here. If you live somewhere else, you might not understand the difficulties and restrictions of living in the Deep South—but, it has cost some of us dearly.

So cuddle up on the porch. I have a story to tell you about loss, salvaged identity, and coming out of a dark cave. Love y’all like chicken!

Hey, y’all! Join me on the porch for a talk about all things Crone: the good, the bad, and the ugly. What really matters is this: we do not lose our intrinsic selves as we age. Rather, we add on and become more—but only if we open our hearts and our minds and continue to grow. Some of my Cronies are holding onto ideologies that no longer serve them, not to mention our communities, and a bit of spiritual Death Cleaning can go a long way toward cleaning up that nasty mess. Let’s witchify every damn thing, including growing older.

Personally, I might just endeavor to be an audacious hag. Snuggle up: it’s story time!

Love y’all! Seba

Hey, y’all! I found a whole scat of listener letters and am sharing three stories of beginnings and other musings today. Settle in on the porch and let’s chat about memories, the calling of the craft, and how it all shapes us as witches.

Blessed Be,
Seba

Well, y’all: I only apologize for my tone. I tried to re-record it, but the anger came out anyway—so I went with it. While there is some contention out there in the Witch world that the designation of “Witch” is not to be self-awarded, I contend that this is, well, unmitigated hogwash. This episode is for the new witches, the baby witches, the solitary witches, but also for anyone who proports to hold the magic wand that creates them.

I promise to record something a little sweeter next week. This just felt important.

Love y’all like chicken. Seba

Hey, Y’all! A listener wrote in and wanted me to speak on the issue of balancing magic with the rearing of small children. I got you, hon. I remember raising mine and trying to find time to “do magic,” not realizing that I was already living it in every moment. So nestle onto the porch and let’s take a brief run down memory lane.
