107. MAGA Witches & “Magic Wars” w / Micheal M. Hughes

<p>Luxa <a href="https://linktr.ee/LuxaStrata"><u>https://linktr.ee/LuxaStrata</u></a> welcomes Micheal M Hughes  <a href="https://www.michaelmhughes.com/"><u>https://www.michaelmhughes.com/</u></a>, author of Magic for the Resistance: Rituals &amp; Spells for Change to discuss magic in the media and the response from the right to his viral 2017 Binding Spell. How does the right wing grift play out in occult spaces? And why should we worry about what people in the news media and elsewhere are saying about magical practitioners? </p><p>Luxa also shares an update about The Green Mushroom Project <a href="https://greenmushroomproject.com/"><u>https://greenmushroomproject.com/</u></a> and Void House- creating consent centered magical spaces for conducting group work both in person and online, investigating the magical and alchemical properties of consent, and providing consent education to magically inclined people. </p><p><br></p><p>Thanks for listening to the Lux Occult Podcast!
