New Interview on Coffee and Divination Podcast

I recently had a chance to sit down with JoAnna Farrer of the Coffee and Divination podcast for a nice rambly conversation about many things witchcraft. We begin our chat discussing the divinatory experience that inspired Blackfeather Mystery School, and the question at the heart of Foundations of Witchcraft: what skills and practices actually help someone become a capable, grounded Witch?

Our conversation covers a lot of ground: spirit communication and discernment, knowing your own internal voice, and using divination to help confirm and clarify messages you’ve received. We also explore Elemental Life Sculpting, magical agency, guising and altered energetic states, trance states, and the importance of maintaining foundational practices even as our magical work becomes more advanced.

The YouTube version of our discussion is over at: https://youtu.be/1F2BYZeLyL0?si=bbi87t6smeRk82df

I hope you enjoy it!
