Magic and Medicines #3: Curse Reversals

In this Bonus Episode, Eleanor and Martin offer solutions to try if you've been hexed!

Part of the "Magic and Medicines" series, they briefly discuss the history and logic of curses and offer examples from tablet fragments excavated from the hot springs at the Roman shrine to Sulis in Bath, then dig into a set of case studies: what do you do if you've been hexed with prickling pains, or are a fisherman who can't net a catch, or you have been 'overlooked' by a witch and can't catch a break? Between the prudent use of black salt, the art of capturing shadows, unsavoury acts involving toads, and more, fear not: Eleanor's got your back!
