The Witchcast - Episode 50 - Bookwitching - why reading makes your brain magickal, and Lucy tackles THOSE rumours about Witches and the Devil
In this episode Lucy shares the creepy history of Frozen Charlotte dolls and other forms of food magick; explores Pamela Coleman Smith and the complicated story of the Rider Waite Tarot Deck and reveals the reasons behind the banning of the ages old tradition of the Evil Eye talisman in Turkey. She then takes a deep breath and tackles the tricky question most witches get asked sooner or later - are Witches in league with the Devil?
Lucy goes through the complicated history of this association, and shares just why it began, and just who it benefits (um, not witches). She even opens the door to the surprising Temple of Satan and their amazing charitable works - and no, you don’t have to sell your soul to get some soup and a blanket from them. She helps a listener out who has lost their Oracle Card guidebook, and shares magickal tips on how to stop a nosy neighbour from being a pest.
Finally Lucy gets into the science behind bookwitching - how reading magickal works for study and pleasure change your brain for the better, including delaying cognitive decline, increasing empathy, and making us all better problem solvers who can navigate the beautiful chaos of our world. The show as always is supported by wonderful sponsors Kohli Tea, Blue Angel Publishing and Primal Healing, and the growing Patreon family who make the Witchcast possible. In between all the witchy goodness, Lucy plays songs by Wendy Rule, G Wayne Thomas and Marianne Faithfull.
Thankyou as always to sound wizard Shayne, to the Patreon family, to the sponsors and to YOU, the listener.
