On today’s episode of the A Pinch of Magick podcast I invite you to 6-weeks of Magickal Summer School for free!

Each year for the past 5 years I’ve run a Summer School: 6-weeks of magick!

And every year it’s been fabulous.

Unfortunately this year I won’t be able to run it, as lots of other exciting other things are all coming together.

However, I couldn’t let summer go by without some kind of magickal experience, so after a chat with a friend last night, we decided it would be a great idea to do a free version of Summer School 🎉

Obviously it will be a bit different…. but…

I’ll be hosting 6 live classes over 6 weeks

These classes will cover all of the basics that you need to know about how to create a safe and effective magickal practice, so that you can really embrace the magick of you!

• We’ll be covering, amongst other things:
• The difference between magick and witchcraft
• The importance of energetic health and hygiene, and the mischief that can happen when we neglect this part of our practice
• The most important aspect of creating magick that not only works, but that works consistently
• Working with the moon phases to create moon-mentum in your life
• Understanding how to identify and work with your unique blend magick and not fight against it
• During each class there will be a chance for you to get all your questions answered.

I’ll even be doing a separate Q&A, to answer any other questions you have that aren’t answered by the live classes that I do.

And YES! There will be replays of all the classes if you can’t make it live.

These classes will be held in our Magickal Community – details of how to join below:

Her essay is titled: Polite Persecution. Raising non-binary children, dismantling everything else.

We discuss:

In this conversation Stella shares her experience of losing the spaces where she had previously felt safe because her children were non-binary, and how she rebuilt a safe space for herself and her family.

She shares her experience of what she calls ‘polite persecution’ where people who had previously been close friends say the right things and smile, but actually withdraw their love and support.

We also discuss using magick to create safe spaces and the importance of advocating for yourself and your family.

Gender and its place in magick.

As well as both the power and danger of being at the edges of society, in the liminal spaces.

We also talk about the magick of writing and what intuitive magick looks and feels like to both of us.

We talk about how the land can inform our magick, culture and traditions.

And how the mundane, and the act of showing up, can often unlock the magick.

Is that the longest podcast title yet 🤣

On today’s episode of the A Pinch of Magick podcast we explore how habits (don’t groan just yet) can create the soul stamina you need to achieve the goals and intentions that you desire.

Inspired by today’s First Quarter Moon in Virgo, we look at the magick of creating intentional habits, and how it’s the micro habits, not the grand gestures, that can give us the most sustainable momentum.

We cover:

• How to create magickal habits 
• How to create magickal habits that work for you
• My avoidance/rebellion of to-do lists
• What happened when I embraced the ‘lists’
• The cause of stop-start progress when starting something new
• The energetic exhaustion of  psyching yourself up for something, and the crash and burn that’s often on the other side of it
• The power of starting small, teeny-tiny
• The best time of the day to implement your habits for success
• The importance of sleep
