This episode features Gabby, an experienced ritualist, witch, and singer/songwriter who has years of experience weaving music into her rituals and magic. Join Ashley and Gabby as they discuss using your voice in witchcraft. Topics include recognizing the magical voice, manipulation of energy via the voice, and much more.

Chants examples

SWEEPING CHANT

All that be ill be swept away, by birch and ash and sickled hay. Bound by willow, stung by thorn, tread the mill of the circle born

SPRING EQUINOX CHANT

The moon goes round the earth, the earth goes round the sun, 

when day and night are equal, the greening has begun

DARK MOON SCRYING CHANT

Dark the moon and dark the night, bring the gift of second sight. 

This circle cast chant can be spoken or sung.

CIRCLE CAST

By the Blade a Circle born, between the worlds a boundary formed. 

By the Powers raised herein, to Guard without and hold within, be this circle cast.
