In episode 127 of the Magick & Alchemy podcast, hosts Kristin Lisenby and Kate Belew celebrate the Spring Equinox with their favorite trickster tales. In this conversation, they discuss the divine psychopomp from Greco-Roman lore, Mercury or Hermes. They discuss his planet, his metal, and the god’s role as a mythical messenger and Scribe of Saturn. They contemplate Mercury as a playful traveler, a patron of thieves, and a boundary-breaker with the golden touch. Kristin and Kate also venture into the more-than-human world in search of the Coyote, Raven, and other tricksters sporting fur and feathers.

In episode 113 of the Magick & Alchemy podcast, hosts Kate Belew and Kristin Lisenby talk resistance and re-enchantment with Amy Torok and Risa Dickens. Amy and Risa are the witches, activists, and storytellers behind The Missing Witches project. In their second visit to the podcast, Amy and Risa remind us that telling the truth is a spell. They discuss the magnificence of difference, rock ‘n’ roll as a spell, and self-care as ancestor worship. They reflect on what they’ve learned by living as modern witches in the woods, and introduce us to their newest book, New Moon Magic: 13 Anti-Captialist Tools for Resistance & Re-enchantment.
Learn more about Amy and Risa and order the Missing Witches’ new book, New Moon Magic: 13 Anticapitalist Tools for Resistance & Re-enchantment, on their website missingwitches.com.
