Today on the show I'm so excited to bring you my conversation with Amaya Rourke. Amaya is a practicing Animist and Folk Witch offering consultations around coming into relation with the fixed stars, as well as shepherding magical folks down the crooked path of cultivating their own personal practices. In the show we explore Amaya's own crooked journey to her primary Spirit Patron: the Irish God and Faery King Manannon Mac Lir, as well as what she's learned over the years helping individuals cultivate sovereignty in their personal practices and develop discernment in their spiritual relationships. I also can't resist getting Amaya's take on the nature of deity, and we hear about Amaya's upcoming retirement (or sabbatical) from the public facing side of her spiritual and consulting practice. I've been a big fan of Amaya's work for years now, and was truly honored to get the chance to have this conversation. There was some fun transcontinental audio shenanigans afoot, but I don't thnk it distracts too much from all the great wisdom Amaya imparts here.
