October 2022 Episodes:
- A Celebration for Samhain
- Listen:
- "Now is the Night of November Eve, as the Samhain rites begin.
Spirits step from the World Beyond, this night when the Veil is thin.
Coming through the Land of Shadows, awakening from the World of Dreams,
joining hands with the Children of Midnight as the Moonlight Lantern gleams.
Drifting in the Wind of Evening, Chanting words in an ancient tongue,
dancing light to the music of Fearies, as the Sacred Prayer is sung.
We honor this In-Between time, this space between Darkness and Light,
While greeting the Reign of the Winter King,
On this Windy Autumn Night."
Be well. Do good. Enjoy the show!
- The Magick of Masking
- Listen:
- Let's create Magick through Masking. If you're going to a Halloween party, what will you "go as"?
We all wear masks, although the extent to which we layer ourselves or are aware of them varies greatly.
Masks are a familiar and vivid element in many folk and traditional pageants, ceremonies, rituals and festivals, and are often of an ancient origin.
One reason for wearing a mask is to pretend to be someone or something else. The mask can be a kind of language that expresses the emotion of the figure one chooses to create.
And, for the Spiral Dance Spell of the week - The Mask of the Unified Self
Be well. Do good. Enjoy the show!
- Water Magick for Autumn
- Listen:
- This week here on The Spiral Dance, we continue our celebration of Autumn as we look at some of the season's important associations.
Water is one of the elements in ancient Greek philosophy, and in Occult circles it's associated with the Western Quarter of the Circle, and with the season of Autumn. So we'll look at how and why Water got associated with the Autumn as we tie in some of their similar Magickal Properties.
Then we'll take a walk into an Autumn Garden with Ellen Dugan, well known herbalist and Kitchen Witch.
Finally, what can be more Autumnal then the good old hooty owl. We'll look at the way people around the world have regarded the owl through myth and legend.
Be well. Do good. Enjoy the show!
