In this episodeI have the honor of having my long-time friend, mentor and spirit mama Elaine Paurel join me to discuss one of our favorite sabbats, Ostara.

I had the pleasure of spending time with my friend Rachel White, the Skeptical Shaman of TOTEM Readings discussing the volatile year of the Wood Dragon and her thoughts on the coming Wood Snake year.
