Have you ever longed for a time and place you’ve never truly known? A breeze from the past that brushes your soul, even though it isn’t yours? That’s anemoia—nostalgia for a moment that exists only in memory or make-believe.In today’s episode, we’re exploring the hauntingly beautiful feeling of anemoia through the world of Practical Magic—a film and fictional universe that somehow feels like home.
