GetWitchified.com - Episode 3



In this episode we listen to the steampunk sounds of Abney Park. The song Airship Pirate is from the album Lost Horizons.



You can find more about Abney Park at AbneyPark.com or myspace.com/abneypark



We also dive into the soulful bluesy sounds of Nedra Johnson with her song Michfest Blues from her album Nedra.

Nedra Johnson's music can be found at NedraJohnson.com or at myspace.com/nedra

Please check out the musical artists and buy their music from your favorite music retailer or better yet from the artist directly!

I spoon out some listener feedback from the cauldron, and comment on the chat about elitism from TommyElf at The Edge of the Circle and Sparrow and Mojo at The Wigglian Way.

Then I give my 7 cents on how the words "pagan" and "witch" can be generalized in our community. Which brings me to my feelings on the Wiccan Rede and the Three-fold Law.

Next I go totally mainstream and talk about some TV shows I am watching these days and then end the show with some tips and basics on candle magick. On the next episode I will talk a bit more about candle magick and also about how to insribe and dress candles for spellwork.

Oh and somewhere in there I get political and rant a bit about the fall of Wall Street and Sarah Palin.

Coming up on the next episode I will be starting the first in the GetWitchified.com Holydaze Giveaways. Three people will be selected at random to receive a giftbox full of witchy goodies just in time for Halloween/Samhain. Stay tuned for more details in the coming episode!

GetWitchified.com - Episode 2



In the 2nd episode we listen to the pagan folk neoceltic sounds of our featured band Omnia. Their song Witches Brew is from the album Alive!.

You can find out more about Omnia on their website omnia-neocelt.com or at myspace.com/omnianeocelt

I also dip into the cauldron and read some listener feedback and touch upon one of the topics suggested from a listener..."keeping silent".


The first book review for Get Witchified is a wonderful novel by Yasmine Galenorn called Witchling. This book is from the Otherworld Series and is about three sisters...a witch, a shapeshifter and a vampire...who are out to save Earth and Otherworld.

Find out more about this book, the Otherworld Series and the author at galenorn.com.

The brief movie review is House on Skull Mountain. This 1974 thriller/horror film has a primarily black cast. It is a fun little b-movie if you like those kinds of things. Here is the trailer...



To round out this episode I talk about preparing yourself spiritually for ritual or spell work. I talk about spiritual baths, cleansing and safety.
