Notas do episódio
In episode 170 of the Magick & Alchemy podcast, hosts Kristin Lisenby and Kate Belew interview Sanyu Estelle. Sanyu is an author, artist, and Word Witch whose work challenges supremacist narratives while exploring the intersection of cultures, histories, and ontologies. In this conversation, Sanyu speaks about the magical lanterns of poetry and magic. Together, three witches discuss creativity and word witchery, tracing their way back into the roots of words as sacred secrets. Sanyu guides listeners toward new approaches to their craft, infusing each action with a sense of possibility and enchantment. She shares what it means to be a Word Witch, and how to work with your gut messages and intuitive hits as missives from past and future selves.
