Step into the magick of winter with Courtney and Jamie as they explore Yule and the Winter Solstice—a season inviting presence, rest, and renewal. Drawing “Reindeer Medicine” from the Season of the Witch oracle, Courtney shares folklore about returning the light, the Oak King and Holly King, and why wreaths symbolize the sun. The episode offers grounded, practical tools for shadow work, navigating family dynamics, and setting compassionate boundaries—try the phrase, “That’s interesting,” to honor your triggers without turning them into shame.

You’ll meet the crystal of the episode—malachite—for luck, manifestation, transformation, and heart-centered energy, along with the cozy folklore of gnomes as house spirits (a charming alternative to Elf on the Shelf). The hosts also celebrate wassailing—blessing apple trees and communities for abundance in the year ahead. Whether you’re building rituals, curating your altar, or gifting crystals, this conversation blends spirituality, witchcraft, and practical magick to support your winter healing cycle.
