PART 2 IS HERE AND WE WENT PLACES!!!
If Part 1 made you fall in love with him, Part 2 is going to wreck you in the best possible way.
Marshall WSL is back and this time we pulled the thread on everything the witchcraft community tippy toes around and refuses to say out loud. Baneful magic. Justified hexing. Running an active curse on a public figure throughout an entire election year and watching it hit the wall of proximity. Why karma as you know it is a colonized bastardization of something ancient and sacred. Why Traditional Witchcraft had to go completely underground while Wicca learned to smile for the cameras just to survive the Satanic Panic. And why your altar might be built on a foundation that was never actually yours.
We also get into the thing that broke us both open a little.
His 12 year old self hiding in the closet with a witchcraft book. Terrified of being the very thing everyone called him. His biggest fear was being like him. And now that same thing is the thing he wears on his soul like armor.
We didn't expect that one to land the way it did. It did.
What we get into:
🔮 Why baneful magic is defense, not offense, period, full stop, end of conversation
🔮 The real history of why Wicca said "we don't curse" and Traditional Witchcraft disappeared for decades
🔮 The Witch's Devil, the Witch Mother, and why they are not the Lord and Lady with a rebrand
🔮 Karma, colonization, and the cosmic cash machine the west built out of an eastern philosophy it never understood
🔮 Sigil magic embedded invisibly in social media posts and how thousands of people are charging them without knowing it
🔮 The proximity problem with hexing world leaders and what actually makes curse work land
🔮 MAGA witches and why witchcraft has always been political whether you want it to be or not
🔮 The Valentine he left anonymously for a boy in high school and the line he wrote in this book that will stay with you
🔮 What the Red Mother actually asked of him and the image he drew before he ever wrote a single word
This is the interview of all interviews. The one we have wanted to have for years. And huntea, we finally got there.
Go watch Part 1 first if you haven't. Then come back. Then watch this twice.

What is Witches Wild?
The spell is only the beginning, my darlings… what happens after the spell is cast?
Welcome to Witches Wild, the podcast where witchcraft meets real life.
Hosted by Auric Blackwood; psychic medium, bone thrower, emotional alchemist, coach, and witch, Witches Wild is where we go beyond the ritual and into the transformation. Because anyone can teach you the spell. Anyone can tell you what herb to burn, what candle to light, what moon to wait for, or what crystal to carry. But almost nobody is asking the question that actually matters…
Now what?
What happens after the prosperity ritual? What happens after the cord cutting? What happens after the tarot reading, the manifestation journal, the shadow work, the ceremony, or the spell? Because magic isn’t just about what happens around you. It’s about who you’re becoming because of it. Around here, we don’t chase perfection or perform spirituality for Instagram. We don’t gatekeep the craft, sell you a fantasy, or pretend your power lives in a two-thousand-dollar altar.
Your power has always lived in you.
Each week, Auric shares honest conversations on witchcraft, self-alchemy, spirituality, tarot, bone casting, magic, symbolism, mindset, and what it actually looks like to live an enchanted life long after the candle burns out. Along the way, you’ll hear stories from remarkable practitioners, teachers, and modern witches who have forged their own path instead of following someone else’s.
This isn’t a podcast about escaping your life. It’s about creating one that feels like magic.
Come for the tea. Stay for the transformation.
