The Witchcast - Episode 80 - Science, Magick and the Craft - an interview with Witch and Scientist Kellie Pixie Ashton

Welcome to the sonic sacred circle, beautiful Soul. Are you ready to rediscover a potent Witches Brew? Once upon a long ago, magick and science could not get their hands off each other. Now, hundreds of years later, we’ve kind of been floating in our own worlds, avoiding each other like we had a bad break up (which science and magick kinda did.)  Lucy has a bit of a mission to help these worlds need to re-connect, as they once did in the times of the great Alchemists. So, to that purpose, Lucy wanted to speak with one amazing Witch - a Witch who’s a scientist, a herbalist, naturopath and an artist - her interests and talents are wild and kaleidoscopic.
Kellie Pixie Ashton and Lucy chat about the relationship between Witchcraft and the Scientific Method, what science can bring to our Craft, and what magick can bring to the path of science in return. It’s a full-blooded discussion about how these two related worlds  - hello, alchemy! - became so very estranged, and why we need to re-entwine them within our lives so we can live with more wisdom and a more holistic approach to, well, practically everything. Witchcraft and Science ARE a potent brew, and more compatible than most magickal and scientific folk may know!As always, heartfelt thankyous to the Patreon people who get this podcast out of Lucy’s head and into your ears each week, and to the glorious sponsors Kohli Tea (witches brew!) Primal Healing (shamanic wisdom) and Blue Angel Publishing (creativity is a part of the Craft!). Blessings to to sound Wizard Shayne as he navigates fresh waters on his life’s journey, and to ALL of you who listen.
