What it's All About:

This is nothing against all the metaphysical or pagan stores, but more towards the big brand stores (Both online and off) that don't understand the meaning behind the witchy stuff that they sell. This is something new as Paganism grows in popularity. I came about this topic when searching for a niche in my soon to be a freelancing business. Plus when I was on a Pagan Zoom meeting, someone mentioned something that got my attention. I will also be talking about the portrayal of witches in popular culture. I'll explain more about this topic in the show. The Spirit Guide of the Week is Mercury and the Dream Symbols are Chicken, Ocean, Glacier, Lynx, and Coyote.
