'Tis the dark time of the year (for us Northern hemispherers), a time to go internal, to rest with our inner darkness, or in my case, grief. We are not well equipped in modern north american society to deal with grief, yet here we are, living it. Exploring that, the important power of perspective and a few other things be the topic of this episode.
Blessings of the deep and wild to you,

Well, this was my second podcast in two weeks when I recorded it, set it to upload and failed to hit the publish button. So now it is two weeks later, what I had written up about it is gone and my memory being what it is, so is my knowledge of precisely went into it.
I do know there was a lot about completion. To know more, you'll just have to listen to it.
With love and blessings of the deep and wild.

Hello and welcome!
First, a topic warning: racism and other 'isms are discussed using in example at least one racist word.
Second, what's this episode about? A glimpse into my current worldview with a focus on Universal Flow, incubation, reflection and what that means from a personal development and magical development point of view. Per blaterent.
And no, the numbering jump is not an error.
Blessings of the deep and wild to you,
Violet, the Abysmal Witch
Phew! Lots going on in this episode.
Welcome to Episode 41. I start with a little shout out of love to all those suffering in the Trump world and then off we go to a magical place called Sneaky Hollow, where I tell a story about Siwamo, a little Asian demon, and how they spend their Imbolg day.
In the third (or second, depending on your viewpoint) segment, I talk about a magical/meditative/reflective tool I use that for convenience I will now refer to as a reflective abacus. If you want to see what it looks like in action, check out my A Witch's Perspective video on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTckUUj0Nx4
Then naturally I conclude with Part 3 of the Wake World.
Keep living, keep becoming, you wondrous and worthwhile people.
Blessings,

Well, just goes to show that we never know what the future will bring. Welcome to Episode 40 of Pennies in the Well. The episode that wasn't sure it would ever be.

Regardless, here and now we are, with a fresh episode for your listening pleasure? perusal? propinquity? (I'm not even sure what that means but it was fun to type.)

Greetings, wellians!
It's been awhile which has resulted in a thought explosion! None of the usual segments made it into this episode. Instead I mused and meandered and muttered my way through a variety of topics in which I mention:
May it not be nearly so long before you hear me again. Blessings of the deep and wild to you,
Saturn
~The Abysmal Witch
Come for a journey with Holly and I as your magical tour directors. We will direct you to the safety ex---to the various ways in which you can bring a greater magic and magical awareness to any travel. Plus, we rave about the Mayan ruins. Plus, we just rave.
Bon bons.
Saturn & Holly.
Hello, Glorious Ones!
I have missed you. You will hear me say that often in this podcast. So I should let the podcast speak for itself and give you those nitty-gritty handy-dandy funk-n-wagnalls links and details.
The episode starts with a reading of chapter 33 of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleister_Crowley">Crowley's</a> <a href="http://hermetic.com/crowley/libers/lib333.html>Book of Lies</a>. I mention the craziness of life.
There is music:
<a href="http://www.kellianna.com/buy.php">Kelliana</a>'s This New Day from I Walk With the Goddess and
<a href="http://www.michellemays.com/">Michelle Mays</a>' Creation from Fireleap
Then there is much talk about changing our beliefs, "Flipping our B instead of the Bird" with reference to a workshop by <a href="http://www.elaineallison.com/">Elaine Allison</a>.
Episode 33 is brought to us by the Ten of Wands and the rune Nied and we hear a promo from <a href="http://www.baphmetis.com/>Baphmetis Meditation</a>.
The last segment is on passion. WOOHOO 
We all need more.
And finally, our last song of the 'cast is Temple Gates by <a href="http://www.james-asher.co.uk/>James Asher</a> from his album Shaman Drums.
Blessings of the deep and wild to you all.
Saturn, the abysmal witch.
Happy Imbolc to all!
Saturn lost her brain yesterday. If you've seen it, please email her. In other news, a new episode of Pennies is out. It starts with a bunch of announcements, it finishes with a lovely song by <a href="http://www.skinnywhitechick.com/">S J Tucker</a> and has another one by her in the middleish.
Oh yes, and there's a rant. That's pretty much the whole middle. Ranting on group communication, gossip, the ease of negative crap to go through a community and the rarity of follow up to create understanding. There's also a promo from <a href="http://www.borealismeditation.com/">Borealis Meditation</a> and we learn that this episode of insanity was brought to us by the tarot the Ace of Spears (i.e. Wands) and the rune Uruz.
There's also reference to <a href="http://www.misanthropepress.com/</a>Misanthrope Press</a> who has given me a copy of their recent release "Etched Offerings" which is a pagan anthology that I will be passing on to one of you wonderful people. More contest details will follow but this who want to get in early, just rate me or leave a comment on iTunes for Pennies, email me at penniesinthewell@gmail.com to let me know you have and voila! thou art entered. Into the contest. Not any other kind of enterting. That would require additional negotiation.
There were also balloons but I don't think anyone but me knew about that. Oh well. Happy living!
~Saturn, the Abysmal (and addled) Witch
Greetings, salutations and freakin' high fives to everyone!
Yes, by Gods, it is another Pennies episode, and in under a week. Feeling inspired, I am.
We travel through many arenas, from Magical Housekeeping on cleaning up that altar, to a Body Divine segment on playing with breathing. The main topic is all about setting goals, using the <a href="http://topachievement.com/smart.html">SMART method</a> (this is but one website out of many options, it's very wide-spread). At the very end there's a new segment: Mission Magical.
This episode was brought to us by the tarot card: The King of Cups and the rune stone: Beorc.
Middle music is Get Started by <a href="http://www.gangagiri.com/">Ganga Giri</a> and end music is Change the Way Things Are by the band formerly known as <a href="http://www.gaiaconsort.com/">Gaia Consort</a>.
And <a href="http://paganpodkin.webs.com/">Pagan Podkin Super Moot 3</a> will be in San Fransisco, October 5-7! Meet up on the 6th. :D
Much love to you all,
Saturn
And no, the title is not a reference to Bill & Ted.
Merry meet and welcome to the 30th episode of Pennies in the Well! Sneaking it in just under the 2011 wire. Phew!
In this episode I focus on rest and relaxation and the power of being quiet and regeneration. And change. Definitely a bunch about change in there. And some Salem, but that's mostly about shopping.

There's also a new promo from Oraia Helene for the renamed podcast <a href="http://sphinx.libsyn.com/">Between the Earth and Stars</a> and we learn that this episode is brought to us by the Wheel of Fortune and the rune stone Eihwaz.
Blessings of the deep and wild to you all,

Muwhhahahahahahahaa,
Welcome, if you dare, to the Mad Hatter's Monster Mash Up with special guest stars Colonel Claymore and Sister Crystal Rainbow (and yes, Sparkle Raven, but I don't like to talk about that time in my life.)
The music you hear is:
This is Halloween by Marilyn Manson
I Put on Spell on You by Nina Simone
Somebody's Watching Me by Rockwell
Devil Went to Georgia by Charlie Daniels
Spider by Nail
Boris the Spider by the Who
Spider-man theme song from 50's tv show

Zombie Apocolypse BBQ by C.O.G.
Silver Shamrock song from Halloween 3: Season of the Witch (thank you, You Tube)
Dragula by Rob Zombie
Time Warp from Rocky Horror Picture Show soundtrack
Monster Mash by Bobby "Boris" Pickett
and finally the theme from Halloween.
Have a most fabulous New Year, one and all. And remember, Safety Third.
Hi all,
Yes, I have dared to tread where only idiots usually go, the land of weight. I attempt, and I don't know how well, to discuss a variety of issues around weight, society, choices, underlying issues and all kinds of nasty things that go into our collective insanity regarding the amount of flesh on our bodies.
But first, I address a small addition to the Tyson discussion on getting past limitations.
The first break has us listening to We Come from Monkeys by blog post by The Body Sacred.
And then we learn that this episode was brought to us by the King of Pentacles and the rune Nied. You get to hear a promo from Media Astra Ac Terra.
The final segment is a Body Divine on getting in touch, literally!, with our bodies.
There is a postscript. And then the final two songs are by Michelle Mays, the first is Gently Johnny and the second is Earth My Body.
I hope you enjoy. Truly. But I'll take anything that isn't horribly hurt and upset by my treatment of the topic. Hmmm, gunshy much? Why yes, yes I am. Talking about charged topics when you can't act and react in accordance to your audience's reaction(s) is horrific. But I did it anyways. Yay me? You be the judge.
Saturn
