Listen "The Seven Sisters"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode we explore one of the most beloved star myths in history — The Pleiades, the Seven Sisters who shimmer in the night sky and in stories told across the world.
From their ancient Greek origins as the daughters of Atlas and Pleione, to the legends of the Kiowa, Aboriginal Yunggarmurra, and Hindu Krittika, we trace how cultures across time have seen these same seven stars and found within them tales of love, transformation, and divine light.
You will hear how Zeus placed them in the heavens to protect them from Orion’s pursuit, why one sister’s light mysteriously fades, and how this same story appears in the oldest human memories — perhaps even from a time before our ancestors left Africa.
We will also explore the deeper symbolism of the Pleiades within witchcraft and energy work — as a constellation of remembrance, ascension, and feminine radiance — and how to connect with their celestial current through meditation and ritual. We will look at -
The myth of the Seven Sisters in Greek legend
The global star stories of the Pleiades (Kiowa, Aboriginal, Hindu & more)
Why these tales may be humanity’s oldest shared myth
The Pleiadian frequency and working with the Seven Sisters in modern witchcraft

OCTOBER ON PATREON - WHISPERS AT THE VEIL
As the nights lengthen and the veil thins, the voices of the ancestors stir — soft, haunting, and full of wisdom.
This October inside Patreon, we will journey into Whispers at the Veil - a month of ancestral reverence, remembrance, and magick. Together we’ll open the door to our kin beyond the veil, honour their gifts, release their shadows and weave their blessings into our craft.
This month includes -
Guided meditation to open ancestral communion
A podcast/grimoire pages on ancestral witchcraft & initiatory death rites in coven and esoteric traditions
An ancestor altar + ritual kit (printables + invocation)
Tarot & oracle spreads for ancestral guidance
Weekly journal prompts for reflection, healing, and remembrance
A closing rite of Ancestral Blessing — sealing their wisdom into your path as the wheel turns
By the end of October, you will have -
Your own ancestor altar
A living practice of honouring your dead
Tools to heal ancestral wounds and embody ancestral blessings
A rite of blessing + remembrance to carry their voices with you through the dark half of the year

Samhain is the witch’s New Year — a time when the veil between worlds thins and the Old Year falls away like autumn leaves. Together we will gather in sacred circle to honour the ancestors, release what is ready to be laid to rest, and call in the magick of the year ahead.
This circle will feel more festive than usual — a true witches’ gathering in the spirit of Samhain. Think candlelight, divination, fire magick, and the warmth of community as we step into the New Year.
What to expect -
Ritual of Release + Invitation – letting go of the old, welcoming the new.
Divination + Fortune-Telling – tarot, pendulum, scrying, traditional Samhain magic.
Ancestor Offering – honouring those who came before us.
New Year Spellwork – planting intentions for the year ahead.
Bring your candles, tarot cards, and a small offering for your ancestors.
The Samhain Gathering is our chance to cross the threshold together, in celebration, magick, and witchcraft.
I cannot wait to share this New Year circle with you.
