In this episode I talk a bit about (and give some clarification) on Dianic spiritual foundation and why I know longer identify as Dianic.
To honor women's spirituality and the Dianic tradition, I am featuring the song "I'm Every Woman" by the fabulous Chaka Khan.
I also talk a bit about my Halloween/Samhain celebrations, dip into the Cauldron for listener feedback and of course touch on the election, change and President-Elect Obama.
I am postponed the continuation of the candle magick segment, but do give some witchy hints and tips on money magick in this episode. Candle magick will be back in the next episode, I really, really, really promise! :)
Happy Halloween and Blessed Samhain! To get you all into a ghoulish mood, the first featured musical artist on this episode is Screamin' Jay Hawkins with his much covered tune I Put a Spell on You.
We hear more from the hauntress Jill Tracy with her song Evil Night Together from the Diabolical Streak album. Check Jill at JillTracy.com or at Myspace.com/JillTracyMusic. And don't forget about the Halloween specials going on now for her new CD!
Thank you to everyone who entered the Halloween Giveaway contest! The winners have been choosen and announced in this episode. Winners...congratulations and look for an email from me shortly.
Also in this episode, and in honor of the season, I talk a bit about a few festivals that honor the dead and then Ancestor Veneration.
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!
