#84 / Sasha Ravitch on Folkloric Witchcraft, Astrology and generational spirit issues

For episode number 84 we welcome the fascinating and erudite Sasha Ravitch!   Sasha is an astrologer, practitioner of folkloric witchcraft, and a (psycho)spiritual counselor. In the this episode we talk about Sasha’s work at the intersection of astrology and folklore witchcraft and how she has noted the prevalence of repeating astrological patterns in relation to spirit and non-human issues and relationships. We also discuss the frequently, generational origin of these issues and to that end, Sasha gives us some tremendous insights.    She describes the significant impact of having a mentor to guide her through her spirit experiences as young witch highlighting the importance of having community initiatory practises and practitioners to help those in spiritual crisis. We pose the question was shared trauma of C0v1d a significant factor in the upsurge in interest and practice in the occult.  In the Plus show we discuss Sasha’s pain wife lineage, a specific form of witchcraft related to fertility problems and death and her sojmanka heritage, or fairy seers. We also discuss the fairy swan maiden and the lore of the Cygnus constellation.    The links to Sasha's Patreon and her readings booking portal are below and I highly recommend you click those links, urgently, with gusto and robust impatience!
