St. Nicholas: Patron Saint of Christmas

Note: This episode and others from this time frame reflect an early stage in my spiritual journey.  While I may or may not not hold these views any longer, I am still keeping these episodes up.    

Why?  Because this is also a historical and folklore podcast, and the folk practices or beliefs discussed are still accurate from an educational and cultural standpoint.

However, if you are interested in my more current views and spiritual outlook, check out the “Reflection” series I recorded in January of 2023.

______

There is both the historical Nicholas, who was a beloved bishop that gave secret gifts to those in need. There is also the cultural Nicholas who drives a sleigh full of toys alongside the demon Krampus. Lastly, there's the Nicholas that some say could really be a Pagan god in disguise.

No matter though, each variant of Nicholas is a great ally for your spiritual and magical practice. Learn how to work with Nicholas for financial success, healing, blessings and more. 

I hope you enjoy the final part in our series on holiday saints and magic!
