In this episode of The Reclamation Hour, we explore how the archetype of the witch and societies view on women have evolved together over time.  

We dive into the stories—mythological and modern—that shape how we see witches, women, and ourselves.

We explore how powerful women in mythology, literature, and pop culture have been portrayed, villainized, and reclaimed—and how that shapes how we see witches, women, and ourselves.

We discuss:

•The historical and mythological roots of the witch archetype

•How characters like Circe, Morgan Le Fay, Lilith, and Cassandra reflect female power and complexity

•Why women who speak truth or claim power have been feared—and often silenced

•How modern portrayals of witches (like Hermione, Luna, and Sabrina) challenge old narratives

•The duality of healing and harm in witchcraft—and what it means for self-trust

•How storytelling shapes identity, power, and cultural memory

•Why reclaiming the word witch is a deeply feminist and spiritual act

🎧 Tune in to explore how the stories we tell—and the ones we inherit—shape the way we see ourselves and our power.
