Meeting the Baba Yaga: Witches, magic, and mystery
from Myth Matters · host Catherine Svehla
Send us Fan MailI recently overhead an exchange between a little boy and his mom. The subject was witches and magic. Which got me thinking. Magic involves perception, changes in the way we see and the manner in which things appear. Magic, like myth, is now a matter of "belief" when it could be practice. This episode revolves around a Russian fairy tale called "Vasilisa the Wise." On one level, this is a story about a young woman and a witch called the Baba Yaga. On another level, it's an invitation to think about magic. The magic and the mystery that we are in, by virtue of being alive.Support the showEmail Catherine at [email protected] a positive review on apple podcasts!
