Episode 186: The Axe Files: Sharp Witches & Shady Axe Magick History

Let's Chat!!Boo, Bitches! Sharpen your blades and your boundaries, because this week on C3: Crystals, Cauldrons & Cocktails we are diving headfirst—and hopefully not blade-first—into the wild, weird, and wildly overlooked world of the Axe Witches of Europe.Yes, axe witches. As in:Witches who said, “A broom? Cute. But what if I also carried a weapon that could split fate, firewood, and maybe a smug villager’s ego?”We’re talking folklore, history, wild accusations, and the kind of medieval chaos that makes you wonder if half the witch trials were just men being intimidated by women who could chop wood better than they could. (Spoiler: they absolutely were.)All that, with a cocktail recipe that pairs perfectly with unleashing your inner battle-witch.So grab your favorite drink, your emotional support familiar, and get ready for an episode that cuts straight through the BS—because these witches didn’t just cast spells…They brought the chopping power.Drink up, witches. This one’s going to be sharp.Support the showWe'll be back!
