The Magick Kitchen Podcast

Send us a textIn this episode, we're kicking off season 8 and the witchiest month of the year with a corvid conversation. We talk all about the myth and science behind what makes crows and ravens so witchy. Join Elyse in an interview with Rick de Yampert, author of the new book "Crows and Ravens: Mystery, Myth, and Magic of Sacred Corvids". Rick de Yampert is a Florida resident and long-time journalist who spent twenty-three years as the arts and entertainment writer for the Daytona Beach News-Journal. He presents workshops and performs on sitar and Native American flutes at Pagan festivals in the Southeast, and in Unitarian Universalist churches. Rick has studied Hindu sacred sound, shamanic drumming, Goddess worship, Taoism, and more. His crow art has been displayed at galleries and art festivals around Florida.

Send us a textIn the season 7 finale, Leandra and Elyse are joined by Fio Gede Parma to discuss their book 'The Witch Belongs to the World', and its major themes: what does it really mean to be a witch?  We talk about what initiation really is, the pros and cons of following a particular lineage, and the ins and outs of Fio's tradition, the Wildwood Tradition from so-called Australia.Fio Gede Parma (they/she) is a Balinese-Australian international teacher, magical mentor, and award-winning author. They were born in the island of Bali - to Roslyn and John - and descend from Balinese, Chinese, Irish, Scottish, Welsh, and English peoples. Fio has lived in so-called Australia for most of her life, as north as Thul Garrie Waja/Gurrumbilbarra (Townsville) and as south as Naarm (Melbourne).Fio was raised in an animistic, polytheistic, magic-affirming, spirit-knowing family - in a haunted house - whose traditions were largely impacted by what the west calls Balinese Hinduism. When forced to consider it, some Balinese name their ‘religion’ Agama Tirta, Religion of the Holy Water. Ganesha, Siwa (Shiva), Krishna, Parwati Uma, Durga, Hanuman, the Barong and Rangda, the spirits and the ancestors were all spoken of, venerated, and regarded with holy awe.
