The journey to self-discovery and self-trust can be a tricky road to navigate, especially when you’re working on building a deeper relationship with yourself in a magickal context.

That’s why in today’s episode, titled “Inner Harmony: Building a Deeper Relationship with Yourself,” we’re going to delve deep into understanding the beautiful alchemy of self-trust, self-understanding, self-love, and forgiveness in your magickal practice.

Today’s talking points span:

  • The critical importance of self-trust in magick, and why this emotional cornerstone could be the key to unlocking your full potential.
  • Simple yet profound methods for fostering self-understanding—think journaling, meditation, and divination.
  • The transformative power of self-love and how you can cultivate it through affirmations and rituals.
  • The art of forgiveness and self-acceptance as invaluable assets in your magickal repertoire.

To ensure you’re not just leaving with theoretical knowledge, we’ve got a treat for you. The episode concludes with a segment on practical tips and exercises, including straightforward rituals you can incorporate into your magickal practice to build self-trust.

By the time we wrap up, you’ll not only have a deeper understanding of your inner self, but you’ll also be armed with actionable insights and practical tools. We’re talking about rituals and exercises that you can start applying immediately for a magickal practice that’s as enriching as it is transformative.

So, get yourself comfortable, light some incense, and settle down with a cup of herbal tea. You’re not going to want to miss this enriching exploration into building a more harmonious relationship with yourself, through the lens of magick.

With love and a sprinkle of magick,

Episode five: Empowered Magick: Balancing Humility and Confidence in Your Practice

Sometimes the magickal journey throws a right curveball.

You set off, ready to embrace your inner sorceress, and just when you’re hitting your stride… wham! You’re teetering between feeling like the universe’s chosen One and questioning if you’re even worthy to light a candle on the altar. Been there, right?

Enter today’s topic on ‘A Pinch of Magick’: the delicate tango of power between swaggering confidence and humble reverence.

How do you harness your newfound magick, stand tall, and own it without sounding like a braggart with a cauldron?

How do you pay homage to the grand cosmos and recognise your speck-like existence without sidelining your own amazing abilities?

Fear not.

Snuggle down, grab your favourite brew, and lean in, because this is about to get as enlightening as the first time you successfully crafted your magick.

In our magickal cauldron of today’s episode, we’re brewing:

  • Insights on why your magickal journey isn’t just about strutting your stuff, but also bowing in gratitude.
  • How humility isn’t thinking less of yourself, but understanding your role in the vast, intricate web of existence.
  • Techniques to pump up the volume on your inner magick, confidently and without any airs.
  • Navigating this intricate dance without tripping on your own cloak.

And the tips, I’ve lined up for you:

  1. Toasting to your magickal wins, big or small.
  2. Spotting those areas of your craft that gleam with potential, awaiting your master touch.
  3. Seeking out those mysteries that are begging for more of your time, dedication, and study.
  4. Weaving humility seamlessly into your life.

By the final words of this episode, you’ll be ready to sashay with assurance, yet with your feet firmly on Mother Earth, in a magickal dance as old as time.

Lace up those dancing shoes and join in.

With stardust and a pinch of magick,

Rebecca xo 🌙🔮

This episode of the A Pinch of Magick podcast, is all about embracing the wild, the sacred, and that deep-seated longing we all experience at some point.

 
Life has this uncanny knack for taking us on detours, sometimes making us feel more lost than found. But what if that sense of ‘being lost’ is actually an invitation to rediscover ourselves?
 
This week on A Pinch of Magick podcast, I have the absolute pleasure of sitting with Wendy Havlir, a shamanic practitioner, teacher, poet, published writer, and founder of The School of Wild & Holy.
 
Pull up your cosiest blanket, grab that cup of tea, and join us as we delve deep into:
 
  • The magick of daily practices and devotion – and why these rituals might just be the lifebuoy you need.
  • The art of longing and the treasures it can reveal about our true selves.
  • Wendy’s intimate journey of self-discovery.
  • That heart-wrenching pain of abandoning yourself and how to find your way back home.
  • Navigating the murky waters of grief and despair with sacred practices as your compass.
  • The “brilliant sanity” in our stories and the courage to let them go when they no longer serve.
  • And, my personal favourite, embracing our wild nature and unlocking parts of ourselves we’ve hidden away.
 
Wendy’s insights are a masterclass in self-awareness, growth, and the beauty of raw, unfiltered truth. By the end of this heart-to-heart, you’ll be ready to not just face your fears but dance with their truth.
 
So, if you’re yearning to ignite that spark within, to lean into your wildness, and to truly honour your deepest desires, this is the episode you’ve been waiting for.
 
As Wendy beautifully puts it, “Know nothing and be open to everything.”
 
You’re in for a transformative ride. Let’s get wild and holy together!
 
With love and magick
Rebecca xo

Episode three: The Direction of Desire: Becoming Intentional in Your Magick

Have you ever felt a tug on your spirit, an unspoken desire whispering in the echoes of your heart?
Perhaps you’ve sensed a yearning within, a magnetic call to the realms of the magickal and the enchanting, only to let it get swept away by the currents of routine and expectation?
 
Know this, you are not alone. And this is precisely where today’s episode comes in.
 
Today we steer our enchanting ship towards the captivating island of intentions. We delve deep into the power of purposeful thought and its instrumental role in our magickal practices.
Together, we’ll explore:
  • What does it mean to set an intention in your magick?
  • How can you carve clear and aligned intentions?
  • How can these mindful intentions guide your magick and manifest your desires?
…and so much more.
 
So, prepare your cosy corner, brew your favourite infusion of herbal tea, and spark up a candle. For in this journey, we’re not just peeling back the layers of ordinary life, but we’re navigating the vast ocean of our inner desires and dreams to manifest our very own version of magick.
 
By the end of this episode, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of the potent force that intentions carry (spoiler: they are much more than mere thoughts!). You’ll start to comprehend how your intentions, much like a compass, can direct your magick towards your heart’s true North. And, you’ll have practical tools to sculpt and align your intentions, empowering you to weave a life filled with purposeful magick.
 
The beauty of this journey? It’s only just set sail.
On this magickal voyage, we’ll journey further into the realms of mastering your magick, stepping into your authentic self, shaking off external pressures, braving the unknown, and aligning your life with the rhythmic dance of the cosmos.
 
This journey is about revealing your inner wisdom, aligning with your highest self, and living a life that’s not just fulfilling, but brimming with your personal brand of magick.
 
As we journey together, remember, while I’m here to guide and inspire you to tap into your magick, your journey is beautifully unique to you. No one else can tread your path. So trust your inner voice, embrace your distinctiveness, and harness your power.
 
Are you ready? Let the journey of intention begin.
With love, and a generous sprinkling of magick, Rebecca xo

Today on the A Pinch of Magick podcast I’m joined by Carly Mountain author of Descent & Rising: Women’s Stories & the Embodiment of the Inanna Myth

And we embark on a captivating journey, unpacking the myth of Inanna and the timeless wisdom it offers.

Settle in and let’s get started!

Today, we dive deep into the ancient story of Inanna and explore how this myth can serve as a powerful guide to navigate the complexities of life. Carly shares her own experience of finding a myth that mirrored her life and provided a map for her journey.

We delve into the profound narrative of Inanna, from the goddess’s initiation and descent, to her triumphant rise – a testament to the resilience and power of the feminine.

Every journey needs witnesses, and Carly underlines the significance of having people to share and affirm our experiences. We explore the concept of ‘rising rooted in our darkness’ and the transformative power of choice.

Life is an ever-changing landscape, and returning to ‘normal’ after significant change or loss can be challenging. Carly sheds light on how to navigate this process, shedding ideals that no longer serve you and making peace with changes in relationships as you evolve.

Throughout our conversation, we address important themes such as truth-telling (especially to ourselves), the power of grieving in company, and understanding who we are beneath societal roles and expectations.

Carly encourages us to remember that our bodies are keepers of memories and shares her insights on ‘descent’ as a form of initiation into self-discovery. We explore the Inanna myth as an ancient map of trauma healing and initiation as a homecoming, a return to our bodies.

The conversation evolves to discuss recognising our natural limits, reframing notions of ‘should’, and acknowledging shame. Carly shares practical advice on how to determine when to seek help and how to undertake the process of rewilding yourself.

We delve into changing our relationships with ‘sky gods’ and ideas of power, navigating the delicate balance between authenticity and overexposure, and the importance of self-care and saying ‘no’.

The episode is rife with gems of wisdom, like the power of saying ‘Can I get back to you?’ and the liberating realisation that often when you think you’re being ‘selfish’, you actually need to become more so.

We conclude our conversation by exploring the patterns playing out in your life, the courage of questioning your fears, and the art of increasing your capacity for pleasure.

So, are you ready to join us on this enchanting journey? Find your most comfortable spot, brew a cup of your favourite tea, and let’s discover the magick within the myth of Inanna.
