Shannon and Laura are joined by a special guest who’s work we have been admiring on Instagram since our episode with Fiona Horne many moons ago… She is a lover of skulls, flowers and rock & roll - and this is reflected in her work, which is a joy to gaze upon. Vanessa is an Artist located in the Margaret River Region of Western Australia, her work is truly a feast for the eyes, full of beautiful bold colours, gold & silver… and rich with symbolism. Her artworks are woven with the elements, plants, sun, moon & stars… and feature witches! 

Coming up this September 9th- 24th, 2023. If you’re in the Margaret River area- make sure to check out the Margaret River Region Open Studios -where hundreds of southwest region artists open their studios to the public for 16 days.

Stacey is an internationally respected pagan practitioner, Witch, author and activist whose passion is to make practical magic accessible to everyone. Stacey has also become somewhat of a ‘big-sister’ to our humble podcast, we are always amazed at her wealth of wisdom and knowledge. We couldn’t be happier that she is joining us today to share one of her new creations, her brand new book, Priestess Path which describes 13 ancient powerful lessons on building inner strength, available from the 2nd of August. We ask Stacey about what the role of a Priestess is, and what it may have looked like in ancient times- as well as in modern-day society. Stacey also shares her knowledge of The Oracles of Delphi, the Greek Priestesses of the ancient world, the Heireia, Celtic Priestesses, and the Vestal Virgins of Rome. Stacey's down-to-earth yet scholastic spiritual style, along with her skill of weaving ancient techniques to solve modern problems make her work unique and compelling, and her new book stays true to the cause.

TOSW has been on a mid-year break, during which Shannon and Laura road-tripped to the National Museum of Australia, in the nation’s capitol, Canberra to see ‘Feared and Revered’, an exhibition of Feminine power through the ages, currently on loan from the British Museum- a collection of sacred and secular art and artefacts from as early as 2800BCE to as recently as 2021.  

“ From deep history to the present day, goddesses, spirits, demons, holy women and other manifestations of female authority have played a significant role in shaping historical and contemporary beliefs and cultures across the world.”

Shannon and Laura cover their 3 fave exhibits

Shannon and Laura reflect on the many special guest interviews from Season 4, this season has seen a rich variety of guests, all very generous with their time and knowledge. Of course it wouldn't be a TOSW without a random curiosity- which Shannon brings in the form of a mysterious Fairy shoe. We also discuss the history and development of the Ouija board, and Planchette. Thank you to our beautiful listeners for all the feedback and ideas, keep them coming!!

Happy Yule for our fellow Southerners, and Litha in the North. XX

The mother of 4 beautiful children and has also been a birth doula. With a passion for supporting women through life’s biggest transitions: menarche, pregnancy, birth and the post partum period.

Always a pleasure to talk with Hemlock and Dagger Kellie Ashton, our fave scientist nerd witch friend re-joins us to record a special Ep on Norse mythology- which has been enjoying some airtime thanks to the likes of the Marvel franchise, Chris Hemsworth’s biceps, and shows such as Vikings- even if the ‘Hollywood interpretation’ takes certain liberties- the mythos arguably offers even more twists and turns to try and get a handle on! That's where our friend Kellie comes in- while she is the first to acknowledge that she does not 'know it all', she has studied and worked closely with Norse Gods and Goddesses for a few years now, and we get into some great chats about this. Kellie shares some learnings on the Norse Pantheon, Odin, Frigg, Freyja, Thor and Loki (to name a few), and she may have even made an offering to appease Odin following our recording after calling him out on some of his shady bullshit. Sorry not sorry!
