The Witchcast - Meet the Elementals of Deep Earth, the Goddess Rising Up, and Haunted Ale-Houses

The Witchcast With Lucy Cavendish

They’ve been made fun of, laughed at, scorned and ignored - but the elementals of the great beneath shape the minerals, infuse our food with earthy, wholesome energy, tend and care for the wounded animals, and help we humans find our way to more healthy and prosperous lives. That is, if we stop treated them less seriously than they deserve.

Who is Lucy exploring in this episode of the Witchcast? It is none other than the much-maligned Gnomes, the wise Kings and Queens, the Elders of the deep earth, whose healing powers and ancient knowledge is needed now as we move into times of transition for Mother Earth. Lucy then shares news of historic and haunted pubs, where you can drink spirits along with, ahem, the spirits, and gets excited about the British Museum’s wondrous new exhibition celebrating the Famine Divine, in Her myriad manifestations throughout time and culture.

Lucy also unpacks curious listener's magickal questions, offers insightful advice, and ventures into the ways in which pop culture events are embracing the mythic and the occult. Featuring Pagan songs by artists as diverse as Wendy Rule, Suzanne Vega along with Eric Burdon and War, this is a beguiling episode that takes a very fresh look at beings both fabled and fabulous.

Welcome to the sonic sacred circle, Witches! Blessed Be!
