Witchy Bites: once bitten, twice witch

Send us a text

Hey Peeps,
This month Hanny and Liz have an in-depth discussion about the statement that our wonderful friend Lynn made;
"Centuries old practice is not learned on TikTok. Don't school others on lore you read "somewhere". Chop wood, carry water puppies. There are no shortcuts." -- Lynn Parlett.
During the discussion, we cover:

  • What is learning?
  • How adult learners differ for children
  • Wasps... yeah, there was an interloper or two!
  • How annoying being schooled is... and is it okay to 'school' people?
  • How readily available instruction is in the witchcraft community
  • Is caring about other people's practice a good use of our time?
  • Are there shortcuts we can take in our practice?

Resources mentioned:

  • In Search of the New Forest Coven by Philip Heselton (Peter was sooooooooo close, but it's Philip!). Published: 1st September 2020. ISBN: 9781913768003
  • Pan's Daughter: the magical world of Rosaleen Norton by Nevill Drury [2016]. ISBN: 9781906958411
  • The Witch of Kings Cross (2020): Documentary. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13795322/

It turns out there are a few books titled Chop wood, carry water. So Josh's book is not the right one! It is:
Chop wood, carry water: a guide to finding spiritual fulfillment in everyday life by Rick Fields. Published 1st December 1984. ISBN: 9780874772098

Send us a text

The first of our Tipsy Tales. We have had a couple of drinks and now we're going to rephrase a folktale in terrible crass language and sidetracked discussions about the characters.
We do not aim to offend, but honestly, the protagonist in this story has been called a few names... so if crass tipsy story telling is your thing, this is the episode for you!
Story is from: Finland
