The usage and impact of AI is a growing, ongoing, and critically important conversation, and is a huge opportunity to reflect on our ethics on both a personal and a collective level. 

Within spiritual and witchcraft communities, there are those defending and encouraging the use of AI, and there are those opposing, fighting, and boycotting it. As with all multifractional topics, this is a subject that needs exploring and it requires nuance. 

So here’s what That Witch has to say about using AI to learn your birth chart, read tarot, how to do spells, and more…

In this episode I mention: the Mental Health is Horrifying podcast

Hello August, and hello eclipse season! ⚡It’s the first Moonday of the month, and we’ve got lots to go over. (My sensitive folx out there would do well to go into this month prepared for some electric and likely erratic energy!) I had to hammer out this episode before picking my daughter up from camp, so grab your pen & calendar, or save the episode & screenshot the parts you want to come back to later, and let’s get right the hell to it ☕💫

It’s the last Moonday of July and that means it’s time for our reflection & gratitude reading, neighbor ☀️ I’ll be using the Golden Universal Tarot and the Work Your Light Oracle decks, and whewwww…these cards have some hard truth AND a very motivating brightside through to the other side.

We’ll also chat about the importance of an intentional reflection practice and some ways you can get into the habit each month with me using our Moonday Musings episodes. Don’t forget, you can download the free Moonday Musings journal guide/template at thatwitchnextdoor.com/blog

The first five years of That Witch Podcast were the past five years of my life thus far… And together you and I have seen so much change together in that time. Change in the world, change in each other, and change within ourselves. 

Today we’re going to look back on the last five years, and I’m gonna spill the tea a bit on myself and where I’ve been specifically this year in 2026. And I hope that some of the huge realizations I’ve been having are able to somehow help you too, neighbor. 

Here’s to five years of That Witch Podcast, and so many more ✨🥳

The last Moonday of the month is for reflection and gratitude work together, and what better way to do that than through a tarot and oracle card reading? This new Moonday Musings tradition is brought to you by end-of-Gemini-season genius, and I love that we’ll be throwing it back to some of my older episode types in a new fresh way together.

We begin this month fresh out of the full moon in Sagittarius, and head straight into Mercury's shift from Gemini into Cancer. In general, June 2026 brings some big celestial news! with Chiron finally leaving Aries for some time, giving us a taste of what its chapter in Taurus will bring, along with Jupiter finishing up its time in Cancer and moving (boldly, of course) into Leo ❤️‍🔥
