October Witchcraft
Episode 7
The veil is thinning, the air is scented with myrrh and our magic turns towards the ancient and unseen. This weeks episode is steeped in old-world witchcraft and necromantic lore.
In this episode we will be looking at -
Myrrh - tracing its sacred lineage through Egypt, Greece and Kabbalistic rites, and how to weave it into your craft for purification, spirit work and its many other magickal associations.
The Bat as a Spirit Animal - exploring its shadow medicine and deep ties to witches
Creating a Money Bowl - A prosperity ritual for ongoing wealth and stead flow including herbs, crystals and spellwork
A Necromantic Evocation - drawn directly from an ancient British Museum manuscript - Sloane mss 3884 read from the book The Necromancers - The Best of Black Magic and Witchcraft edited by Peter Haining.

Money Chant
Coins and bills, hear my call
Money flows and does not stall
Wealth and Fortune grow and stay
Blessings come in every way
By the stars and by the sea
Luck and fortune come to me
With each breath and step I take
Golden chances I shall make
OCTOBER ON PATREON - WHISPERS AT THE VEIL
As the nights lengthen and the veil thins, the voices of the ancestors stir — soft, haunting, and full of wisdom.

A podcast/grimoire pages on ancestral witchcraft & initiatory death rites in coven and esoteric traditions
An ancestor altar + ritual kit (printables + invocation)
Tarot & oracle spreads for ancestral guidance
Weekly journal prompts for reflection, healing, and remembrance

A closing rite of Ancestral Blessing — sealing their wisdom into your path as the wheel turns
By the end of October, you will have -
-
Your own ancestor altar
-
A living practice of honouring your dead
