When December's darkness falls and the year breathes its last cold breath, ancient fires are kindled. Long before modern winter holidays, our ancestors gathered to celebrate the returning light, honor the gods of winter, and feast in defiance of the dark. In this episode, we journey through the sacred December traditions of our pagan past — from Yule fires and Saturnalia feasts to the Wild Hunt and the rebirth of the sun. Discover the rituals, the deities, the foods, and the magic that made midwinter a time of both reverence and revelry.

Before the first shoot breaks the soil, before the garden hums with bees and sun-warm leaves, there is a quieter kind of magic—the moment we place a tiny seed into waiting earth and trust it to become more. In this episode, we step into that early, hopeful space and explore the rituals, techniques, and old traditions of seed starting. If you’re ready to coax life from the stillness of winter and awaken the first green sparks of spring, this one’s for you.

This week we’re pulling back the curtain on the cottagecore fantasy and diving into the raw, sacred, often messy reality of land-based pagan living. From ancient multipurpose homes to modern anti-consumer magic, we explore what it truly means to live with the Earth—not just pose beside it.

Authentic. Grounded. Magical.
