Merry meet and welcome to Episode 10! Wow, how did we get here so fast? It's been a great trip and made worthwhile by all of you who listen, so thank you for downloading the show! Podkin love to the fellow podcasters as well. And now let's get into the heart of the episode: But first, there will be a contest. Submit your name and some aspect of how you like to celebrate the divine (or not) to penniesinthewell@gmail.com by August 20, 2010 and you could win a copy of Mythcreants by Tricky Pixie signed by S.J. Tucker and Betsy Tinney!! Now on to the topics. I discuss some of what I have learned over the last couple of weeks, including the joys of mead and my need for security within my home. I also highly recommend listening to Episode 20 of Media Astra Ac Terra for Oraia's discussion on emotion and intellect. Break 1: Played Taglio by Tricky Pixie and a promo for Velma Nightshade's WitchesBrewHaHa. Then a nice long discussion on widdershins circles, some cautions, some how-to's, some likely results. Break 2: Me singing the chant Infinite Sun from an archive of Pagan Chants of the Month Archive, followed by a promo from Standing Stone and Garden Gate. Finishing off I read Chapter 10 from Aleister Crowley's Book of Lies (here's a copy off of Invisible House's website) and discuss working on dark moons. Closing out the show we have for your listening pleasure, Dryad's Promise also from Tricky Pixie. I hope you enjoy the show! Saturn

Abysmal Witch (1) - Healing Spell

Merry meet to one and all, And welcome to the inaugural show stealing segment: The Abysmal Witch. It is all ritual, all the time, with a bit of explanation thrown in for fun, okay, for clarity. In the intro I quote the first verse of the Witches Creed by Doreen Valiente. With a little garageband effect over top which really was just for fun. During the show I play The Celts by Enya in the background, read the Witches Rune by Doreen Valiente and Gerald Gardner together (though the Eko Eko Azarak part at the end is considered typically part of a different chant). I discuss the ritual very briefly at the end so please ask me questions if I didn't explain or say enough about what I was doing! Actually, any feedback on it would be greatly appreciated given that this was rather a departure from 'typical' podcasting. Finally, I mention my blog: The Abysmal Witch. And that, as they say, is that. Blessing of the deep and wild upon you. Saturn, The Abysmal Witch
