Episode 50: The Beheading of Saint John the Baptist
Welcome one and all, as we mark the Feast of the Beheading of the Baptist, and indeed our fiftieth episode of RFG! Marking this holyday of decapitation, we are delighted to bring you an especially head-y installment this time. Our Sainted Day is Decollation of Saint John the Baptist, prompting discussion of both the church history and popular myths of this relic’d skull and its wandering jaw. Our counterparted Demon(ised) is none other than Salome, assessing the myth and meanings of this figure and her relationship with Herodias as seductress and witch icon across the world. Our Herb is Life-Everlasting, affording analysis of this yellow greenery and its charms of longevity. Our Mineral is the many-hued Agate, concentrating on the Orpheus Agate; diving into the Orphic lapidary epic Lithika and the use of such stones in propitiation and protection. Our Form of Magic is Prophetic Heads, surveying legendary and historical accounts of cephalomancy, talking skulls, and artificial brazen heads. Our Beast is the Unicorn, considering religious cryptozoology, natural magic, bestiary lore, and the historical trade and application of its powdered horn. Our Daysign is Itzcuintli, the Dog; meditating on Mictlantecuhtli and the chthonic Mesoamerican associations and meanings of this trusty sign of the dead. Our Figure spurs conversation on the Earthy Venusian geomancy of Amissio (Loss) and its counterparting Odu of Ifa and Diloggun, Oshe Meji. Our Arcana of the Tarot is the Two of Swords; delving into both Spanish cartomantic meanings and “Western” occultural significances of choice and clarity. Our Dead Magician is Orpheus, the ancient beheaded bard of bards, tragic underworld troubadour, and patron of those mysteries we call Orphic. We hope, as always, you enjoy this decollated assemblage of talking points and headwords as much as we did in recording this especially lengthy folk necromantic co-ramble, and wish you excellent tidings in all your unveiling dances and skullduggery.

Episode 49: The Feast of Saint Elijah
Welcome Golgothites, we wish you an excellent Feast of Saint Elijah. In honour of this day and indeed this holy figure of the Abrahamic faiths, we bring you a bevvy of topics co-mingling fiery and watery mysteries. Our Saint (and Prophet and perhaps Angel) is San Elias, the prophet Elijah, who ascended to heaven in a whirlwind chariot, and extends his mantle and wisdom in his returns to earth. Our Demon (indeed Queen of Demons) is Lilith; affording us a deep-dive into ancient, medieval, and early modern demonology, midrash, the heresies and hallowings of witchcraft, and much more besides. Our Herb is Willow, the One-That-Weeps, Lunary tree of Lunary Waters; boughs that bend, weave, and root; balm and bane of the living and the dead. Our Mineral is Citrine, lighting our way to consider lapidary title-shuffles of Solary golden stones, the yellowing processes of alchemy, merchant’s stones, and more. Our Style of Magic is Card Magic, prompting discussion of divination, gambling, the manipulations of significators, and where the sortilege meets the sorcery. Our Beast is Sheep, placid phlegmatic wool-bearer; by which we compare and contrast the differing lores of rams and lambs from ewes. Our Daysign is Atl (Water), whose non-oppositional duality with fire which presents fascinating contrasts to some often-unexamined assumptions of Western occult philosophy. Our Figure is the geomantic Cauda Draconis, The Dragon’s Tail, explosively Fiery figure of Saturn and Mars, and its counterparting Odu of Ifa and Diloggun, Ogunda Meji, sparking talk of creative destruction, rational action in the heat of crisis, and mysteries of war. Our Tarot is the Two of Wands, allowing us contrast between the energetic Fiery Wands in Thelemic conceptions, and melancholic Earthy Bastos in Spanish cartomancy. And our Dead Magician/Sorceress/Witch Queen is none other than María Díaz de Padilla; tracing the afterlife of a king’s mistress crowned queen of earth in hell, whose legions champion the ambitions of women and the oppressed across terreiros of Quimbanda to this day as Pombagira Maria Padilha. We hope you enjoy this extended and animated discussion of these flaming topics, and we wish you all a very pleasant hot hag summer!

Episode 48: The Feast of Saint Anthony of Padua
Merry Feast of Saint Anthony and indeed Happy Friday 13th, Golgothii! This, our forty-eighth episode, sees us celebrating – amongst other things – Saint Anthony’s incorruptible tongue, his veneration across the world, and his patronage of finding lost things, along with his many syncretisations across Worlds both Old and New with powers of doorways and the streets. Our Demon(ised) patron of this episode is Eshu/Exu, that deified crossroads power who finds expression as Legba, Eleggua, and as Exu of Quimbanda: the Owner of the Road, the divinely-restless and rebellious movement of vital virtue and axé, and demonized trickster-friend who accuses and upturns towards good character and ancestral harmony. Our Herb this time is Belladonna aka Deadly Nightshade, prompting discussion of toxicity, the coolness of sleep and death, witches’ flying ointments, and the both Venusian and Saturnine qualities of Atropos and her fatal scissors. Our Mineral is Yangi aka Laterite, a stone so intrinsically tied to Eshu veneration and practice, upon which we pour the palm oil of slickened communication and the lubrication of the frictions of the world. Our Magic is Idols, inspiring conversation about accusations of idolatry, and weighing both metaphysical representation and spiritual ontology; as well as some post-colonial considerations of fetishes and fetishism. Our Daysign is Tochtli (Rabbit), a day intimately tied into passages of the moon, service to things bigger than ourselves, and indeed with Mayahuel, goddess of both fertility and maguey. Our Beast is the Rooster, hot-blooded courageous crier of the barnyard, whose crowing call wards off ghosts and night-wanderers, and whose meat empowers broths and baths of choleric boldness and healing. Our Geomantic Figure is Airy Solary Fortuna Minor, the Lesser Fortune: a marker of choler, and swiftness, that loyal but distractable escapologist who turns bad fortunes into good and vice versa; comparing and contrasting the warnings and familial remediations of the Odu Irosun Meji of Ifa and Diloggun. Our Tarot of the day is the Two of Cups, by which we consider divinatory markers of love, fulfilling and unfulfilling relationships, caduceuses, and domestic as well as interpersonal bonds and boundaries. Our Dead Magician to play us out is Jubiabá, the infamous Candomble de Caboclo priest and macumbeiro who courted controversy with the religious purists and local authorities of his day, whose Chair was lost and restored, and who was fictionalized in the eponymous novel by Jorge Amado. We thank you for joining us in this two-headed exploration of both crowing and minding tongues, of meaningful relationships and the arguments you survive, and the ever-unfolding creativities of the crossroads.
