Building the 'Evil Witch' - The Infamous La Voisin

07/01/20 • 15 min

Hey Witches,

This week I'm looking a La Voisin - a diviner and fortune teller turned murderess. I look at how she found herself in the centre of what would become know as the L'affaire des poisons - one of the largest witch hunts in modern history and how her activities in early modern France helped build the public's perception around witches that still haunts practitioners right up to today.

Weird & Wonderful Divination I

Hail Mages,

This week is covering the vast topic of divination. I explain reasons as to why we practice it, the different forms it takes from all over the world from well known astrology and tarot to the slightly more niche versions of ornithomancy, ceromancy and hepatoscopy. I also talk about sibyl's, oracles and more!
