Excellent video! I also take small strips of fabric, put ogham or runes on them and sew them into clothes for protection. I practice a lot of Bardic magic which uses spoken/sung/chanted words so I loved that you included sacred breath in this video.

After all these years of listening to you, finally to see your face! I feel like I know you after being a fan for so many years, of your podcast. I'm also a recent student if Rob Phoenix. Blessings from Cape Town, South Africa 🇿🇦 ♥️

It was such a treat to learn a bit more about your cultural background and heritage. I had no idea about your Polish roots - that is so cool! Many of the tools that you mentioned are also heavily used in my practice. Gotta love how folk magic across the globe has so many similarities - red thread, fabric scraps, local plants, written and spoken charms, breath (!) - yess!🔥

I really enjoyed learning more about you and the tools you use. Lately, I have been drawn to more local elements. With Autumn hitting Montana there is a huge shift, and with that shift, I have noticed a pull to see and use what has been in my own yard! Aspens, Spruce, Cicada Exoskeletons, Buckthorn Berries, Juniper, and Wild Roses just to name a few are all on my little corner of the world, it wasn't until this year that I actually truly appreciated what I have here

Keep up the good work from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺 👏 👍

I consider myself a Christian Witch, my practice are heavily based on Braucherei, Cunning Folk, a little bit of folk catholicism, and earily mormon folk magic traditions (Seer Stones, magical daggers and talismans). I'm influenced by a bit of Neo-Pagan Wicca and folkloric witchcraft as well.

❤️ Yessss. THISSSSSSSSS. I absolutely love your work, insight, approach. Highly relatable.

I like to use rial road spikes to sort of anchor myself when I'm going to spirit flight, so that nothing snatched me preventing me from waking up.

I thoroughly enjoyed this. Thank you!

In my magic I only use plants in my yard. I use a lot of maple tree, apple, and pine parts. There’s a few hemlock plants I’ve convinced my mother to leave alone (she loves gardening in MY garden 😂) and I use a lot of bones from animals that I find while driving. Occasionally animals (mainly bees?) come to our house to just die. I’ve had bees fly and land on my hand and just sit around to die. I use them in magic. I’m very anti capitalism/money so if it ain’t free I don’t use it in my magic! Occult/new age shops really out here charging people $20 for a novena candle 😂

Thise moments when someone else expresses the exact thing you do/feel/believe...there were a bunch of those in this video! Comrade!

Hi Cory, Do you think the iron spikes in the ground would be offensive to the fair folk that may inhabit that land? I love the idea of "nailing down your property" but want to be respectful to other spiritual entities that may have been there before me. Thoughts?

Where do you find regional almanacs? All the ones I find are very general
