On episode 79 of the Magick and Alchemy Podcast, hosts Kate Belew and Kristin Lisenby discuss protection spells and curses, and where these types of magick intersect. They reflect on rituals designed to bind, ward, glamour, or render the practitioner invisible. They also talk about curse tablets, the Evil Eye, enchanted poppets, witch bottles, and talismans designed to shield or hex.Created by Tamed Wild.Production by Julio MonteroMusic by Follow the Wind,Taizo Audio.
