Two Witches Talking

Pull up a chair by the cauldron, because in this episode Megan and Morgan are getting into one of the most primal forces in magickal practice — fire. They dive into the many faces of fire magick, from the obvious (candle spells, anyone?) to the wonderfully unconventional, sharing personal stories and rituals that might just inspire you to rethink what fire work can look like. Along the way, they unpack the rich symbolism of fire across spiritual traditions, including its dual nature as both destroyer and creator, and why that tension is exactly what makes it such a powerful tool for transformation.

Whether you're a seasoned practitioner who's been burning candles since before it was an aesthetic or a curious newcomer who's accidentally singed their grimoire, this episode has something for you. Megan and Morgan break down practical ways to weave fire magick into your everyday practice, no dramatic bonfire required (though they wouldn't judge you for it). By the end, you'll see fire less as something to be cautious of and more as a collaborator in your craft, one that's been waiting for you to strike the match.

This week on Two Witches Talking, your two witchy aunts are diving deep into one of history's most chaotic and bloody chapters — the “witch” trials. They’re talking about the bizarre, the baffling, and the downright absurd accusations that had entire communities pointing fingers at their neighbors. From King James I's full-blown obsession with witchcraft (seriously, the man wrote a whole book about it) to the Malleus Maleficarum — the notorious witch-hunting manual that basically became the blueprint for hysteria — Megan and Morgan are unpacking the historical and religious forces that made this dark era possible.

And oh, the accusations themselves? Buckle up. They’re getting into witch cakes, animal familiars, and the kind of "evidence" that would get laughed out of any courtroom today — and should have then too, because where’s the logic? They explore the deeply tangled social context that turned neighbor against neighbor in Colonial America, and they end on a note that's equal parts sobering and hopeful: the long road to exonerating the accused, some of which took centuries. It's a wild ride through history that reminds us just how dangerous fear and superstition can be, and how important it is that we never forget it.

Did you know that laws regulating practices associated with witchcraft, divination, and fortune-telling still exist across the United States — and in many countries around the world? In this episode of Two Witches Talking, Megan and Morgan dig into the surprising and often overlooked legal landscape facing practitioners today. From state-specific licensing requirements to outright bans, the witches walk through the patchwork of American regulations and explore some of the ongoing legal battles that are actively shaping the rights of witches and diviners in the modern era.

They also zoom out to look at international witchcraft laws, many of which have deep roots in colonialism and continue to have serious consequences for practitioners in affected regions. They discuss the historical context behind how these laws came to exist, what repeals and reforms have looked like in recent years, and what all of this means culturally for those who practice today. Whether you're a practitioner yourself or just witchcraft-curious, this episode will leave you thinking about the intersection of magick, law, and cultural identity in a whole new way.

Join Megan and Morgan as they bust open some of the most stubborn myths about witchcraft, from the false assumption that witches worship Satan, to the idea that witchcraft is exclusively a women's practice. Along the way, they dig into the real history behind witch trials, clarify why witchcraft is a practice rather than a religion, and explore how it differs from modern New Age spirituality.

After listening, the hosts encourage you to research the history of witch trials in your own region, reflect honestly on whether spiritual bypassing has crept into your practice, and consider supporting organizations that champion religious freedom for practitioners everywhere.

It’s a serious topic, but you know these witches: They’re sharing tons of laughs throughout!

In this episode of Two Witches Talking, Megan and Morgan explore the rich and layered world of magickal texts — from traditional Books of Shadows to deeply personal Books of Mirrors and everything in between.

What is a Book of Shadows, really? Is it a spellbook? A record? A lineage document? And how does that differ from a Book of Mirrors, which turns the lens inward?

The witches talk about the history and evolution of these texts, how modern witches adapt them, and why there is no single “right” way to keep magickal records. Whether you love ornate leather-bound grimoires or chaotic spiral notebooks full of candle wax and coffee stains, this episode will inspire you to create a system that actually supports your practice.

If you’ve ever wondered where to write your spells, dreams, tarot pulls, shadow work, or rituals — this conversation will give you clarity (and probably permission).

In this important and nuanced conversation, Megan and Morgan explore the realities of cultural appropriation within modern witchcraft. They unpack what “closed practices” actually mean, why they exist, and why white practitioners in particular must approach these traditions with humility and accountability.

The episode moves beyond surface-level discourse and into deeper reflection: What is the difference between appreciation and appropriation? What does it mean to be invited into a tradition? How do historical trauma, colonization, and systemic oppression shape spiritual boundaries today?

Megan and Morgan discuss the responsibility that comes with practicing witchcraft in the modern era, especially for white witches navigating spiritual curiosity in a world where information is widely accessible but not always ethically shared.

This episode is not about shame. It’s about awareness. It’s about learning to honor ancestral traditions, respecting community boundaries, and doing the internal work necessary to build a spiritual practice rooted in integrity rather than entitlement.

What We Cover in this Episode

• What “closed practice” really means in spiritual communities

Are psychic abilities something you’re born with…or something you can develop?

In this episode of Two Witches Talking, Megan and Morgan explore the world of psychic perception and intuitive development. They unpack the idea that everyone has psychic abilities to some degree and discuss how childhood experiences, social conditioning, and cultural beliefs can either nurture or suppress those gifts.

The conversation dives into the different types of psychic perception, commonly known as “the clairs,” including clairvoyance, clairaudience, clairsentience, and more. The witches share personal stories about intuitive hits, spirit encounters, and the subtle ways intuition shows up in everyday life. You’ll also hear practical ways to strengthen your intuitive muscles, how to rebuild trust in yourself, and why practice (not perfection) is key when developing psychic gifts.

If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re intuitive, or wished you felt more connected to your inner knowing, this episode will remind you that your intuition isn’t broken. It’s waiting to be trusted.
