Witches in the Media

This week, Robyn and Selene tackle the image of Witches in movies and on TV and how it has changed over time. Several points are debate worthy, and we'd love to hear what you think!

  • Was Gerald Gardener's work responsible for the change in the overall view of Witches as primarily bad, to include a number of 'good' Witches thereafter?
  • What were the reasons behind the negative image of Witches before the middle of the 20th Century?
  • What are your favorite movies and shows about Witches and magic?

Let's keep the conversation going! Check out the podcast and comment below!

This week's Spellcast was our longest one yet, and with good reason! We interviewed MPRC president Ryan about how to keep the Pagan community alive and active, both online and in person, especially given that they presently do not have a physical location. It was a really interesting talk and generated a lot of thought provoking ideas.

Give it a listen and let us know what you think!

We have wonderful news! The Magical Blend: Book of Secrets (Volume One) should be in stock by the end of this month. To celebrate it, we've gone ahead and interviewed T. Scarlet Jory about how the book came together, as well as what is inside its pages, what the Crescent Moon School is, and more! Check out this week's Spellcast for free to hear the full interview.

Time for an update!

Well, it's been a while since we've posted here, and so we are well overdue to bring you up to speed.

Due to various economic reasons, and with a very heavy heart, the physical storefront of Mélange Magique has been permanently closed. We are so sad to see it go, and will miss interacting with our customers on a daily basis.

The online store lives on, however, and we have exciting plans. Point of fact, we started a weekly podcast, our Spell cast, as it were, and have just posted the second episode: Ritual Vs Spellcraft. It's a free weekly download. Why not check it out?

 The Magical Blend's Book of Secrets: Volume One has finally been added to our site for pre-order! Its author, T. Scarlet Jory, owned The Magical Blend for a number of years, and has written up a volume containing a number of its practices and recipes, collected over the last twenty years.

Online Workshop Podcasts will soon become available for purchase online! Many of our most popular classes will be recorded and packaged with relevant class materials for download. Keep an eye on the podcasts category of the site for more details!
