Key dive into the world of fairytales, folklore, and dramatic plays to narrate six different stories—and reflect on each of the sorcerous lessons one can glean from them. From seafaring saints and Faustian conjurers to old witches and dragon-slaying princes, the gang giggles their way through all the memories of learning lore through stories around the autumn campfires.

How do you determine which spirits are best suited to consult for which questions? What roles to concurrent auguries play alongside one's chosen divinatory system? How can over-divining block a result, and how can you know the answer generated by trance is the most accurate and precise one? How do we better our capacity to not only hear our spirits, but relay their messages in actionable, medicinal ways? The Dragon, Wolf, and Owl explore some of the ins and outs of fine-tuning one's divinatory outlook for more precise outcomes across the board.

Sfinga and B. Key are joined by the incredible Albert Björn Shiell, witch, sorcerer, and student of English and Icelandic folk magical traditions. Albert goes over his experience studying oral and literary traditions of Icelandic magic, and muses on the nature of integrating into not only a new culture and language, but a foreign country's animist landscape. The gang discusses what it means to actually breathe an animist life through conscious relationality with the natural world, all while sharing a few laughs over common misconceptions of each of their traditions.

Dear friend and discerning sorcerer Caspar, also known as De Duivelbanner van Overijssel, joins the hosts to chat all things Dutch folk magic. In addition to discussing the diversity of Dutch folk practitioners, what duivelbanners are, differences between Protestant and Catholic traditions, and types of spirits one may encounter, the gang explores the importance of situating the "folk" in "folk magic". Key also touches on a fascinating and remarkably well-preserved set of fishing and knot-tying magics inherited within his own Dutch family, prompting a heartfelt discussion on the ways living traditions are indeed lived throughout diasporas.

Sorceress, Fairy Seer, Trollkvinne, and dear friend of the show Rose Aurora returns for a discussion about the various signs that manifest in clusters at birth, puberty, and beyond to delineate proclivities for certain kinds of magical pacts. We cover questions concerning lack of free will and choice, what does having "the gift" entail across our cultures, omens that are only recognized by those with the necessary training, nonhuman parentage, and why the most important "mark" above of all is the active choice to engage with magic itself and ambitiously pursue its abundant results.

Key at last unveil as much as can be said publicly about their profound experience pilgrimaging to the Sanctuary and Rock of the Goddess of Love's birth.

Key in a heartfelt and riotous discussion on perfume and spiritual colognes, from their creation under the auspices of alchemical patrons to their use in glamour, sorcery, and the activation of spirits.
