The 15 book young adult series, The Circle of Three by Isobel Bird, is magical time-capsule of what is was like being a young 90’s witch. The series was groundbreaking at the time because of its realistic portrayal of the Wiccan life, the Pagan community, and the struggle with mainstream society that continues to this day. It also featured topics not often written about in young adult literature at the time, such as LGBT issues and...

The 90’s were a wild time to discover Witchcraft, especially as a young person, and finding legit information, let alone a teacher, could be a very daunting task. But when you did, it was pure magic, especially when your teachers ran the oldest occult store in America. Matthew Sawicki, proprietor of magical goods through his store Witch and Famous, joins us on this episode to talk about coming of age as a witch in the 90’s, the pow...

An important contribution to the magical publishing boom in the early 90’s were Scott Cunningham’s accessible books on solitary Wicca and everyday magic; books that continue to be widely sold and cherished decades after they were published. Scott’s sister and author of Scott’s biography, Christine Ashworth, joins us in this episode to talk about Scott’s life, the lesser known details that shaped him and his Witchcraft career, and h...

Join me and Phyllis Currott, high priestess and trailblazing attorney for witches’ rights, as we discover how a handful of courageous people changed ou...

The 90’s saw the beginning of the Witchcraft, magic, and Paganism publishing industry in a way that had never happened before. While there were some books in the earlier decades, it wasn’t until the 90’s that you could find decent, modern, practical books that were becoming widely available. Join me and Christopher Penczak, a prolific author and co-founder of The Temple of Witchcraft, as we explore his experience as a rising star o...

On this episode of That 90’s Witch, we’re gonna be talking about one of my absolute favorite topics from the 90s: witchy movies, media, and television shows. The figure of the witch in media changed radically in 90’s, mirroring the enormous growth of people claiming the title of “witch” as a religion and spiritual path. These depictions continue to shape witch culture, aesthetics, and our magical practices. Come join me and Heather...
