That Witch Podcast

The last Moonday of the month has arrived, neighbor, and the breeze that turns the season is wisping in the air all around us. Before we head into September and prepare to begin closing out summer, let’s reflect back on this August, and maybe the Summer 2025 overall. In today’s Moonday Musings episode on That Witch Podcast, I’ll give you some tips, suggestions, and ideas for reflecting back, finding the gratitude, and making this w...

We have arrived at Virgo Season 2025 ✨🧹 Time to trim off the excessive and the unnecessary, and streamline into more effective uses of our energy. In today’s Moonday Musings episode, we’ll talk about what the transition from Leo into Virgo is like, this week’s Virgo New Moon, and how you can use the cosmic energy in your magickal practice.

We are just coming out of the full moon portal and moving into the last quarter phase this week. Venus and Jupiter meet up for a moment of optimism and magick ✨ And good ol’ Mercury will be stationing direct, ending its current retrograde cycle—though we’ll still experience some of those Mercury retrograde-y vibes through the rest of the month, which in a way will be setting us up for a pretty retrograde-heavy end of the year. Call...

Leo season is roaring, neighbor 🦁✨ and we have officially entered August. On today’s Moonday Musings episode, we’re going to go through the major astrology for this month, with a focus on Mars moving into Libra and our upcoming Aquarius Full Moon. I recommend grabbing your planner or calendar, and let’s get intentional with the energy for August.

Happy 4th Birthday, That Witch Podcast 🥹💞🥳

Leo Season 2025 begins July 22nd, and just a couple of short days later is the Leo New Moon. When That Witch Podcast released its first episode on July 22, 2021, we were talking about the Aquarius Full Moon, and now four years later we’re here at the beginning of Leo Season again, but this time we meet at the new moon.

The sun almost seems to shine a little brighter in Leo, but what role ...

Took a little impromptu podcast break last week and I’m here to tell you why…and also a bunch of other stuff too.

The thing of it is, there’s just so much going on for everyone right now. Widespread fear, anger, and tension feel constantly on the rise everywhere you turn. There’s plenty in the astrology indicating structural and societal shifts, and today I felt called to take a leap and share some of my own personal views with you,...

And just like that, we’re halfway through 2025. For this week’s last Monday of the month episode, let’s look back not just on June, but back to December 2024. What were you planning? What were you going through? What did the transition from winter into spring and spring into summer look like?

Just a handful of days after this year’s Summer Solstice, this is truly an excellent time for reflection and gratitude as we’re basking in the...

For three years Ashley Michelle and I have come together on the new moon each month for an episode called Shadow Chats; something that blossomed into one of the most beautiful friendships, and something that has meant so much to both of us. But over the last several months life has been lifeing, and behind the scenes of our businesses, my friendship with Ashley has been witness to some incredible transformation. Today on That Witch...

We have now coasted right into Cancer season, neighbor 🦀🌅This week we have our Cancer New Moon 2025, bringing us deeeep inside the the soft center of our hard outer shell and asking us to really allow ourselves to listen and feel into our sensitivities. Then, like a heat spike, that zippy, ruler-of-curiosity Mercury moves into Leo the day after our watery new moon. So for this week’s tarot reading, I decided to go with Lo Scarabe...

This week in astrology 💫 Mars enters Virgo, and the Sun enters Cancer ☀️ Here in the northern hemisphere we’ll enjoy this year’s Summer Solstice (and a very happy Winter Solstice to our southern hemisphere neighbors!) and if we’re still willing to reach out, maybe even let in a little love and connection, we can quickly and easily see the abundance and riches that surround us. Mars in Virgo is here to get. shit. done. Don’t overdo...

An herb sachet is basically a little pouch of magick ✨

It’s something I’ve done in my witchcraft practice (and honestly even before I realized I was a witch) for a longgg time because it’s so easy, so customizable, and very rarely, if ever, is it something that requires items outside of what you already have available to you at home. Today we’ll talk about the times in my life I’m making an herb sachet spell, plus tons of ideas, tip...

It’s a special one, neighbor ✨ Jupiter moves into its exaltation in Cancer, and is the ruler of our full moon in Sagittarius this week too. There’s an optimism in the air—if you know where and how to look, so be on the lookout for the things you’ve grown apathetic, desensitized to, or tend to take for granted. The medicine is in the gratitude work, and especially in (re)connecting with those reciprocal relationships we consider fam...

My relationship with herbs goes back even further than when I started practicing intentional witchcraft. Long before I started learning about their metaphysical properties or their medicinal qualities, I was playing around with their flavors in cooking and teas. It was my budding magickal practice that formally introduced me to their energetics, a door-opener I think many, many witches are presented with.

And so today’s episode of T...

Welcome to June, neighbor. This month we are getting into our crab shells and making our way through lots and lots of watery Cancer energy. With Mercury, the Sun, and Jupiter all moving into Cancer, the emotional volume is definitely getting turned up—something that’ll open us up for a lot of healing, and still has the potential to get overwhelming too. Get your calendar or planner for June 2025 handy, grab something to drink, and ...

Today on That Witch Podcast I am joined by Root Cause Therapy Practitioner, Jenna Smith of Naturally Empowered Living 💫 When Jenna and I first met to record an episode on her show, the Naturally Empowered Living podcast, we had one of those instant connections because we both share so much of the same approach to energetics, the importance and value of physical and spiritual healing, and bridging the seemingly gap between science ...

On the last Moonday of the month we look back and count our blessings ✨ Today is the new moon in Gemini, so you may already find yourself in a pretty reflective state of mind, and you might be having some thoughts about what you want your future to look like too. 

Before you start setting your goals for June, gather up any evidence of how you spent this month—pictures, calendar, planner, journal, habit tracker, financial statements,...

Do I join a coven or do I practice the craft alone? This is likely a crossroads each practitioner encounters at least once. Even if you never find or formally join a coven, it’s still something you’ll probably even just hear or read about. The first book I ever read to begin studying witchcraft was gifted to me, and it was called, Spells for the Solitary Witch by Eileen Holland. In it Holland describes the path of the solitary witc...

 It’s time to say goodbye to Taurus season, and ready or not, here comes Gemini ✨⚡ We’ve got a lot of moving parts this week- not only is the sun moving into Gemini, but its zippy ruler Mercury will be joining in shortly after as well. And to all my neighbors who have their natal Saturn in Aries, you’ll want to listen up! Because Father of Jupiter, Saturn, is moving into Aries this week, and while we’ll all collectively experience ...

When it comes to most branches of magick, if you love it you go for it, if you don’t, you don’t really have to cross paths with it. But, as human beings, we have to eat food and drink fluids in order to live, which means even if a Kitchen Witch doesn’t really sound like your thing, obtaining and/or preparing food and then eating it is still a daily part of human life.

If you’re a foodie, or you already love cooking and/or baking, th...
