Multiplicities of Magic with Risa Dickens and Amy Torok
Listen now
Description
The witches are back! On the latest episode I'm joined again by Risa Dickens and Amy Torok, who first appeared on the show in 2021. They're back this time to discuss their latest book, "New Moon Magic: 13 Anti-Capitalist Tools for Resistance and Re-Enchantment." Risa and Amy are also the co-authors of “Missing Witches: Reclaiming True Histories of Feminist Magic”, both from North Atlantic Books, and the co-hosts of the podcast Missing Witches. On the latest episode we explore: * The nature of sacred activism and the constantly flowing journey between personal evolution and its outward expression in the world * The importance of holding multiplicities and paradox, and how this work is essential to witchcraft * Why differences shouldn't divide us but rather invite us to expand * Risa and Amy's process for collaborating and writing their books together - and in doing so, how they've joined a lineage of powerful women who write together * Our shared loved of dirt, and why it's much more than a metaphor for both the medicine we need AND what's ailing us
