Episode 94 - ZOMBI - A Very Fat Feminist Halloween Special! Oct 29, 2021

Show notes

Hello again witches, seekers, and friends - and thank you for tuning in to The Fat Feminist Witch Podcast for my annual Very Fat Feminist Halloween Special!

Every year at Halloween we examine some of the stories, tropes, and stereotypes that have contributed to the image of the Halloween Witch, the ways we celebrate her and the holiday, and how that image impacts real modern witches. This year we're not talking specifically about witches, but about magical practitioners whose legends and religious beliefs have contributed to our favourite Halloween Horrors. Though most modern zombie movies fit well into the science fiction genre, at one time they were filled with evil magic performed by "Voodoo witch doctors". Before that, the story and name of the zombi and of raising the dead was a real practice in Haitian Vodou.

Lilith Dorsey, author of Voodoo and African Traditional Religion joins me to talk about zombis and zombies, the vodou origins, their hollywood present, and a possible future where the genre can embrace it's magical roots.

Visit Voodoo Universe, Lilith's Patheos blog and her website lilithdorsey.com to learn more about her!

Episode 91 - Eye See You Aug 20, 2021

Show notes

Hello friends! Thank you so much for tuning in today I’m really excited to be back! Today’s episode is an exploration for the eye in magic, be it third or evil, belonging to an Egyptian god or floating atop a glowing pyramid. I’m going to tell you how to diagnose the presence of the evil eye and ways to shake it off, and how to balance the energy of your brow chakra.

Are you a big music fan? If you use Spotify to listen to the show look for the version of this episode labeled B-SIDE - I've filled the episode with music breaks featuring songs about eyes, vision, clairvoyance, and some that resonate with the third eye itself.

You can find the whole playlist, including songs I didn't end up using, here.

The book referenced with the evil eye cure is Italian Folk Magic by Mary-Grace Fahrun (amazon.com | amazon.ca)

You can watch her video demonstrating the cure on her YouTube Channel - link.

You can also find Agatha De Santis's fabulous film Malocchio on YouTube - link.
