For the June Episode of Altars Up Witches Podcast, Space Daddy & Bimbo Yaga are going to be going Back to Basics! We’ve been getting so many great questions about working with ancestors, spirits, casting spells, and more. Many of these questions truly speak to a need to destigmatize the importance of magical foundations.

Why dedicate an entire podcast episode to the foundations of traditional magic?

Spells and rituals are powerful ways of connecting to the world around us. They also help us deepen and explore our understanding of how magic works through our craft. As we learn from our experiences, we will draw upon that wisdom to empower future actions. So often the witch gets so excited for the “fun stuff” that we can easily overlook the foundational steps that make the fun stuff truly powerful. In this episode, we are going back to basics! Get ready to get excited about the foundational practices that make every day life more magical!

Topics we hope to cover:

The importance of cultivating relationships with helping spirits

Daily practices for psychic clearing & protection

Connecting with your inner altar & power

Some juicy gossip

Revisiting and remediating our understanding of foundational magical principles is appropriate for witches of all skill levels…. especially those of us who’ve been around the block a few times. Never become so wise that you forget to learn. Never become so confident in your truth that you refuse to challenge your beliefs. We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did! Don’t forget to like, share, subscribe, and most importantly PLEASE LEAVE A REVIEW of the pod wherever you tune in.
