In our season finale, we are looking at our esteem needs, and how far Hollywood takes the trope that everyone needs - or does not need - magick to overcome their issues and their belief in themselves. Using an example from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, we look at whether acceptance of the self, and belonging needs, can truly be found in magickal working. We also have a look at how we have adapted Maslow’s hierarchy to give magickal work a structure and goal. 

Hopefully by the end of this episode, listeners will discover that “real magick” was in the tropes we learned about along the way. No wait, that’s not the lesson is it? Spoilers. It isn’t the lesson no.

We have an article on magickal self esteem for magickal success and how to align Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs to magickal practise that further describes today’s topic.

We also talk briefly at the end about an upcoming event in collaboration with Clare Willmitt Wellness, it is currently on Eventbrite as a place to express interest in this, so feel free to check that out.

Today’s episode is a look at how humanistic magick is used to bring people, and ourselves, towards our true potential. Achieving this is what is called being self actualised. We talk about Carl Rogers and Maslow, how they provide the backdrop to humanistic magick and how employers could use these principles, and Lego naturally, to provide a better working environment.

Hopefully by the end of this episode, listeners will take more time for themselves, their own personal development and ensure they align their goals - be it work, life goals or magickal ones - towards achieving your potential.

We have an article on using Carl Rogers self actualising tendency to achieve spiritual growth and how to align Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs to magickal practise that further describes today’s topic.

In this episode we are asking the question “Can you decide to be magick or is it something you are born like?” Looking at examples from Star Wars, the Rivers of London book series and others where the protagonist is often revealed by a mentor to have spiritual or magick prowess within. Is there still a place for learning magick (or even magick powers, like The One About Divination from Season 3 explains) or is it a private epiphany driven by a yearning?

Hopefully, having taken the time over this episode, listeners will discover a bit more about what motivates them to practise magick, how spirituality connects to personal growth and personal development and whether they have the ‘need from within’. 

We have an article on using Spirituality for personal development that further describes today’s topic.

In this episode we are looking at how to bring magick (mostly Tarot to be fair) into the Boardroom, conference room, meeting room, staff room, and annual appraisal. We draw a connection between our astrology in the boardroom episode, and posit that if we were clever enough, or had a vast pot of gold, we could work with a developer to build a personality profile tool using the meanings in the Tarot. We describe some real-world situations where Tarot can be used at work and, using examples from the TV show Angel, explain that magick in the workplace is just the next step along the evolution of wellbeing and team building.

Hopefully by the end of the episode listeners will feel inspired to hold workshops or one to ones with their teams in a different way.

In this episode we are looking at astrological natal, or birth, charts and their applicability in the workplace. We read one of our own birth charts to identify real-world uses for these tools in a mainstream context. We have used a free tool on Cafe Astrology to produce a detailed report, and we’ll talk about how accurate it is. We get into what some of the astrological words mean and hopefully by the end of this episode listeners will have an overview of what goes into a birth chart, and feel inspired to use these personality reports to complement existing workplace profiling.

In this episode we are looking at magick’s representation in music and songs, and how far magick has made its way into mainstream consciousness, or least into HMV. We’ll talk about lots of different bands and artists, such as The Police, Fleetwood Mac, Nina Simone and whether or not songs when used in films and TV become open to interpretation through the lens of magick. Plus we’ll share our thoughts on how far magick is being readily accepted, thanks in part to its presence in different forms of media.

Hopefully by the end of this episode listeners will have an eclectic playlist of some of the least problematic songs we’ll talk about

We have an article on the mainstream appeal of magick that further describes today’s topic.

In this episode we are looking at whether fate and free will are in a secret battle, using us as pawns in a weird chess game. Can you choose your own path or is it all mapped out for us long before we are born? Pop culture has so many tropes, even casting Fate as a character in many shows like Charmed. We’ll talk about how prophesy, and whether there is a grand plan, is dealt with in shows like Angel and Supernatural, and overlay this with ideas about using magickal tools like Tarot and Astrology to give us a heads up on any of the big events we might not be able to avoid.

Hopefully by the end of this episode listeners will take a side, is everything fated? Do we have free will? Or is it a bit of both?

We have an article on fate versus free will and whether Tarot can predict the future that further describes today’s topic.

In this episode we are looking at one of the weirder ideas brought to us from science and pop culture, The Multiverse. What is it? How many are there? How do I go visit one of the other ones? Well, we might not be able to answer all of those questions, we do at least have a go. 

We’ll talk about how Sliding Doors, all the Star Treks and Marvel shows draw on the concept of many worlds. Can we peak at these through dreaming and meditation? We talk about different universes piled on top of each other and whether "soft places" mean we might slip through to another dimension. We round off with a decision that, just like Everything Everywhere All At Once, we can borrow outcomes from our other selves through spellcasting.

We’re not a science show, or a medical show  so where we have totally butchered the physics and medical science, we’re very sorry!

We have an article on magick and the multiverse that further describes today’s topic.
