E202: Science, Witches and Folklore

from Southern Fried Witch Hosted by Seba O'Kiley

Y'all know I've always seen science as integral to the Craft. As far as I've ever understood it: science is magic, magic is science, and everything in between just hasn't been proven yet. So I hope this one makes sense. It's a little "teachy," which y'all know I usually avoid--but this one felt important. We're going to talk about hardwood ash until your eyes roll back, and a bit about black cats as familiars. Y'all know how this goes. It's a wander. Gather round the porch, Batchildren. Let's talk about science? xoxo, Seba To support this podcast and get access to exclusive content, go to: https://www.patreon.com/southernfriedwitch
