Eight Great Spiritual Podcasts

To parallel my Eight Great Podcasts on my other blog, I thought I'd do a specialised version for spiritual podcasts. As with my other selection, there are so many out there that it's hard to choose, and just because a podcast isn't on this list, doesn't mean that it doesn't deserve to be here!


* Rune Soup
Rune Soup, the blog, podcast and community, is the brainchild of Australian Gordon White. Known for chaos magick, he also covers the topics of animism, permaculture and much more. I always come away feeling like I've had a brain upgrade.

* The Fat Feminist Witch
Paige has a friendly and personal style, whether it's interviewing one of her guests, or doing a solo show. Her book reviews are always insightful, and she's not afraid to cover topics that others might think are fluffy as well as the hard-hitting ones.
Website

* Medicine Stories
Medicine Stories focuses mainly on herbalism but also covers a diverse range of topics from indigenous spirituality to death rituals. I always feel peaceful and in touch with my own spirituality after listening.
Website

* The Lucky Mojo Hoodoo Rootwork Hour
A chatty radio show with interesting stories and guests. Every episode features questions from callers, which the hosts do their best to answer. I've found out about other practitioners from the show, such as Madame Pamita (who I might feature in a future episode on YouTubers!).
Website

* Witches & Wine
Chaweon interviews interesting people from all sorts of occult circles. She's not afraid to ask the hard questions and dig deep to get the most insights possible. This is an audio-visual podcast on YouTube.

* Circle of Salt
Circle of Salt is hosted by two friends, Felix and Rune, who love to dish salt out on whatever and whoever they feel like. Tarot, magickal nerds and TV shows are all fair game.
Website

* Witch Wave
Each episode, Pam interviews an occult figure about witchcraft, often with a bent towards art and creativity. I always feel inspired to work on my art afterwards.
Website

* Hippie Witch
To be honest, I only heard about this podcast a few days ago, and I've only listened to one episode. But Joanna Devoe's enthusiasm and positivity was so engaging that I added her podcast to the list!

Grey School Summary :: February 2019

The first half of this month, I was 'between jobs' (I'm a contract worker so that's normal for me). I had plenty of time but little motivation to study. Well, to be honest, I watched a lot of educational/spiritual Youtube videos, but I didn't do much written study. Then I was offered a job, and suddenly I became very enthusiastic about studying again! When I had all the time in the world, I didn't feel like studying, but as soon as that was taken away, my motivation returned. Does everyone's brain work that way, or is it just me?

I have almost finished my last mandatory class, Core Energy Practices 102, so I thought I'd earned the right to sign up for another subject-specific class. I chose Herb Use & Safety. I love working with herbs, and this class is a pre-requisite for many other herbal-themed classes, so I wanted to do it early. I also decided to sign up for Colours of Magick. I wasn't going to do it, but the class focuses on the different courses of study at the Grey School of Wizardry, and I'd been having trouble deciding which course to go with, so perhaps it might give me some insight.

The other good news is that my new work is in the same building as a library. It's a specialist library that only covers certain subjects, but I've been able to find some books that will help me with my studies.
