In episode 134 of the Magick & Alchemy podcast, hosts Kate Belew & Kristin Lisenby discuss Summer Magick. They begin by looking up, searching the celestial forest for shooting stars and seasonal harbingers, before moving on to the mythologies of the fixed stars, including Sirius, Algol, and the Pleiades. They also talk about the Muses, nine goddesses of inspiration that we can call on for our summer creative work.Sources:Brewers Dictionary of Phrase and Fable, John Ayto “Words,” Sylvia Plath Kafka on the Shore, Haruki Murakami PtolemyFixed Star, Sign and Constellation Magic: Renaissance Astrology, Christopher WarnockHermes on the 15 Fixed Stars“The Bright Beams Of The Fixed Stars In Your Astrological Chart” - Llewellyn“The Fixed Star Sirius” - Alice Sparkly Kat"An Ode to the Muses," Little Witch BooksShoutouts:Episode 31: Litha & Summer SolsticeEpisode 65: Lunar Gardening & Solstice SymbolsEpisode 66: Fire MagickEpisode 68: Bibliomancy and Summer Goddesses Episode 69: Portals of the Summer Solstice Episode 70: Leo Season & Summer Shadow Work, and the StarsEpisode 71: Nostalgia Magick with Caitlyn BaroneEpisode 110: Feral Girl SummerEpisode 127: Trickster TalesJoin the Tamed Wild Coven!The Coven by Tamed Wild was created out of the desire for community.
