The cauldron is bubbling, the conversation is flowing, and the peach cider is definitely enchanted. Join Maeve, Margo, Gwen (your resident witches), and Brian (our wise druid) as they gather once more around their famously magical coffee table to explore the wild, wonderful world of women in paganism.
This weekâs episode is a deep as our favourite hosts take a wild ride through the thickets of women in paganismâ.
From the early days of feminist witchcraft to todayâs more gender-inclusive circles, we explore the energy that draws people into the Craft. Is it the divine feminine? The call of the wild? Or maybe just the aesthetic?
(Letâs be honestâflowy robes and candles are a crowd pleaser... )
đĽ Topics stirred in the cauldron include:
Was modern paganism built on the backs of the womenâs power movement?Why so many women feel called to the Craft (and why the cauldronâs now bubbling with more masculine energy too!)Is the spiritual pull about energy, archetypes, or just damn good incense?The evolution of gender roles in pagan spacesâdivine feminine, sacred masculine, and everything in between.đŻď¸ And because no good witchy chat exists in a vacuum, we touch on how gender roles and divine archetypes are handled in other religions tooâfrom Christianity to Eastern philosophies, and everything in between.
Expect a few cackles, a couple of side-eyes at patriarchy, andâof courseâa spirited conversation about how the lines between gender, power, and spirituality are being redrawn with every solstice, full moon, and drum circle.
So, whether you walk with wolves, dance with Dionysus, or just really like herbs and candlesâthis oneâs for the wild in all of us. đ¤đ
⨠Pour a cup of something strong and hit play, witches. The coven is in session.
-
This week, itâs Margo, Gwen, Maeve, and Brianâ yes, the usual suspectsâ gathered âround our well-loved, wax-stained, definitely-seen-some-things coffee table.
Weâve got candles burning, notebooks open, and a tasty little black cherry cider from BC on the side (because weâre fancy like that).
But tonightâs topic? Oh, just a little something light and breezy like... Paganism and Clergy.
Yepâweâre going there.Paganism and Clergy.Letâs be real: itâs not something you hear about every day in the wider world, but in our communities, itâs a conversation thatâs long overdue.
Weâre asking the big stuff:
đŻď¸ What is "clergy" , Pagan-style?
đŻď¸ Do we need it, or are we all just DIY priests and priestesses anyway?
đŻď¸ Who gets to say theyâre clergy, and is there a secret Pagan paperwork club no one told us about?
đŻď¸ Most importantly, what does this look like in practice? From hospital visits and end-of-life care to handfastings and community rituals⌠does having a go-to spiritual person make a difference?Weâre getting into it with all the honesty, sass, and side-eye youâd expect. No gatekeeping, no fluffâjust a real convo about leadership, service, and support in our modern Pagan lives.
⨠CALL TO ACTION: Okay, your turn.
Have you ever worked with clergy in a Pagan context, or been one? Do you think formal roles help or hurt the path? Got a spicy take on who gets to call themselves a High Priestess?
We wanna hear it!
Drop us a message, leave a comment, howl at the moonâwhatever works. What do you think? -

đď¸ Season 5, Episode 109 -
"How to Worship the Earth When Itâs Trying to Kill You"â¨đ The earth is sacred, but what happens when itâs covered in ice and trying to freeze us solid? âď¸đ§
Once again, the forces of nature have locked us in a deep freeze, and an ice storm has left us huddled in our homesâso, naturally, weâre gathering on Zoom to talk about it! Join Margo, Maeve, and Gwen (your favorite witches) alongside Brian (our steadfast druid) as we dive into the challenges of honoring the land when it feels more like an enemy than a provider.
đ¨ď¸ Surviving the Storm â We chat about how extreme weather, particularly the brutal Canadian winters, tests our relationship with the earth and our spiritual practices. Can you still feel connected to nature when youâre just trying to survive it?
đ§ Shifting Perspectives â Maybe the answer isnât fighting the cold but embracing it. Touching on traditions from the far northâNordic magic, Inuit spiritual beliefs, and the lessons of those who have thrived in harsh climates for generations.
đĽ Adapting Our Worship â When you canât dance barefoot in the forest, how do you honor the earth? We discuss ways to shift seasonal practices, work with winter energies, and keep the flame of connection alive (sometimes literally, with a good fire and a strong tea).
So grab your coziest blanket, light a candle, and join us for a discussion thatâs equal parts frigid and fiery. đŹď¸đĽ

Gather âround, witches and wanderers and welcome to another exciting episode of Three Witches and a Druid!
This week, Margo, Mauve, Gwen, and Brian are back at the kitchen table, drinks in hand and minds wide open, diving into one of the spookiest, most intriguing topics yetâwhere do ghosts, aliens, and cryptids fit into modern paganism?
Do spirits of the dead exist alongside our gods and ancestors, or are ghosts something entirely different? Are aliens ancient deities, cosmic travellers, or just figments of our collective imagination? And what about cryptidsâare beings like Bigfoot, the Mothman, or the Loch Ness Monster misunderstood nature spirits, magical entities, or creatures science just hasnât caught up with yet?
Expect exciting debates, personal stories of the unexplained, and a deep dive into folklore, mythology, and modern pagan practice. Whether youâre a skeptic, a believer, or somewhere in between, this episode will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about the supernatural.
So grab your favourite brewâtea, mead, or something a little strongerâand pull up a chair. Itâs time for another round of magical musings, spirited discussions, and maybe, just maybe, a ghostly visitor or twoâŚ
