A Common Craft

by Blue Firth

A Common Craft is a series of podcasts about the archetype of the Witch, Witchcraft and magic and how these subjects may affect our daily lives- sometimes without us even noticing. Through interviews and storytelling, each episode will present a journey of occult ideas, feminism, healthcare, gender and popular culture. As Witchcraft becomes increasingly popular, Blue asks what we can learn from it's unorthodoxy and how it might make the future more magical for us all.

Witchcraft and the archetype of the Witch are explored through interviews, found sound, commissioned music and storytelling.

This first episode focuses on healing, healers and reconnection to the self. Blue talks to historian Ronald Hutton, esoteric herbalist Cristina Pandolfo, baker Kimberly Bell, and author/designer/teacher Sarah Gottesdiener about terminology, herbalism, food and how to promote intuition.
