The Divine Void: Witchcraft in Liminal Spaces

Welcome to The Divine Void Podcast. Join witchcraft authors Laura Derbyshire and Jennifer Lane on The Divine Void Podcast – as we discuss witchcraft in the liminal spaces of the world. How can we find glimmers of magick outside of the Pagan festivals? How can we slip between this world and the next to access our true power? Magick is around us all the time – we just need to tune in and reset our minds to nature’s frequency. Find out how on The Divine Void Podcast.
