    Description

    Betwixt and Between get cozy (as cozy as you can get on Zoom!) with Byron Ballard, "The Village Witch of Asheville." Delve into folklore, spiritual ancestry, Appalachian magic, and evolving modern-day Paganism as three Witches cackle about everything from book writing to menopause. http://www.myvillagewitch.com/ https://mothergrove.org/ https://www.amazon.com/s?k=byron+ballard&i=stripbooks&ref=nb_sb_noss   Also mentioned: https://calmatters.org/california-dream/2019/06/bethel-church-redding-california-modern-christian-culture/ https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/mollyhensleyclancy/meet-the-young-saints-of-bethel-who-go-to-college-to https://druidry.org/resources/brigid-survival-of-a-goddess https://www.instituteofshamanismandcuranderismo.com/curandera-beliefs-in-a-nutshell/

    Not fitting in is a pretty common state of being for most Pagans and Witches, but what do you do when you're not quite dark enough for the all-Underworld-all-the-time crowd, but you're definitely not Wiccan enough for the Merry Meet crowd? When you really love coming together in real life with like-minded practitioners, but your schedule is dictated by playdates, laundry loads, and the precious moments of adult conversation or pursuit of some kind of career beyond wiping noses and bums? And when your practice of the Craft itself is at its most fulfilling and powerful when you are in the in-between places--dawn, twilight, midnight, a foggy beach, the edge of a forest, a space in the hedge? It's hard to describe, but it's exhilerating: the creative tension when and where you are about to cross over, from one world to the next, one time to the next, one role to the next. Life is constant change and flux, and in this miasma we shape ourselves and our reality. Come explore it all as we have, two modern, down-to-earth, real-life-concerns, practicing Witches, in the conversations of Betwixt and Between.
