    Episode 6 - Am I Religious or just Spiritual?
    Jul 10 2024
    PLEASE LIKE, FOLLOW AND SUBSCRIBE! Today's Listener Letter is sent in by "Settling into my Spirit Side". Dear Bellamy Black, The thought of religion and spirituality has me conflicted. Growing up, my family was very religious, almost to the point where some may say it was “cult-ish”. There were expectations of behavior and punishment or ridicule if I did not comply. At first, these methods of fear mongering completely turned me off religion of any kind. I identified as Atheist, for years, but in my older age I feel called to spirituality again. But I am not sure where to really start. I was researching Wicca, and found the Earth Based spiritual and energy-based practice to be intriguing, but ultimately I am struggling with the underlying structure of it all. I kind of just want to be a free range heathen. Is this ok? Does one have to associate with a particular religion in order to find their spiritual side? I want to learn, and in some ways I need guidance (or at least I think I do). Where do I begin? Join Bellamy Black as she interviews Dr. Sarah Montgomery-Richards, Professor of Philosophy and Religious Studies at Northwestern Michigan University in Traverse City, MI, and Adrian College in Adrian, MI. Together, they delve into the nuanced topic of Religion vs. Spirituality, illuminating the idea that there are "many paths up the mountain." In this enlightening conversation, Bellamy and Dr. Sarah explore the personal relationships people have with their Ultimate Sacred Reality, discussing how these connections shape their lives and worldviews. They examine the differences between religion and spirituality, highlighting how structure and organized religion play distinct roles in these ideals. Religion is often characterized by established doctrines, rituals, and institutions, providing a structured framework for communal worship and shared beliefs. Spirituality, on the other hand, is more individualistic, focusing on personal experiences and inner growth. Bellamy and Dr. Sarah discuss how organized religion offers a sense of community, tradition, and continuity, while spirituality emphasizes personal exploration, authenticity, and a direct connection to the divine. They also explore various ways to research and learn about alternative religious movements, offering practical tools to help listeners access religion and spirituality in an informed and respectful manner. This episode will inspire you to reflect on your own spiritual journey and consider new perspectives on the sacred. Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion that bridges the gap between religion and spirituality, helping you navigate your own path up the mountain. #religion #spirituality #ultimatesacredreality #manypathsupthemountain #newreligiousmovements #wheredoibegin #davidbowieisgod #gobroncos #nostupidquestions #knowledgeispower #blessedbe #askawitch #bellamyblack #podcast #traversecity #cydeproductions HARVARD PLURALISM PROJECT https://pluralism.org/ GREAT LAKES TREATS - local mushroom foragers https://greatlakestreats.com/ To Find Dr. Sarah Montgomery-Richards NMC Human Resources Directory https://www.nmc.edu/departments/human-resources/staff-list.html TEA ENCHANTING CHAI- CONTAINS SO "MUSH" MAGICK Black china tea, cinnamon, assam tea, cardamom, clove, ginger, black pepper, chicory, chaga, reishi, red rooibos, licorice root.

    Today's Listener Letter is sent in by "Crone to the Bone".

    Hello Bellamy,

    I am an Elder Witch.

    I’ve been the Maiden, I’ve been the Mother, and now I am embracing my role as the Crone. It has been an interesting transition. What I love most of all, is that I have fully settled into who I am. I feel confident about my needs, desires, boundaries, and spirituality. To be blunt, it’s pretty freaking sweet.

    I am writing to you because I feel the archetype of “Crone” is severely overlooked, not only in the witching community, but society overlooks the elder generations frequently. I was wondering if you could shed some light on the role and importance of Crones?

    Episode Summary:

    In this enlightening episode, Bellamy Black sits down with her 80-year-old best friend, lifelong spiritualist, herbalist, and founding member of the Intergalactic Hag Nation, Ruby Webber. Together, they explore the profound wisdom of the Crone archetype, a powerful figure representing wisdom, intuition, and inner knowing, deeply rooted in the collective unconscious. Known also as the Wise Woman, the Crone guides us through life’s transitions and fosters transformation. Ruby explains how this archetype embodies deep wisdom and intuition, guiding individuals through significant life changes and fostering personal growth and transformation.

    Ruby and Bellamy highlight the invaluable contributions of elders, particularly in the metaphysical and feminist movements. They discuss how elders have paved the way for contemporary practitioners and the importance of honoring their legacy. The conversation turns to being unapologetically oneself. Ruby shares insights on embracing your true self without worrying about societal judgments, encouraging listeners to live authentically and confidently.

    Ruby also offers a unique perspective on living in a society that often overlooks its elders. She discusses the challenges she faces and the importance of celebrating the wisdom that comes with age. Ruby and Bellamy emphasize the need to respect our elders, reach out to them for guidance, and avoid patronizing language like "young lady." They discuss creating a culture that values and learns from the experiences of older generations.

    Tune in to this transformative episode as Ruby Webber and Bellamy Black guide you through embracing the Crone archetype and the timeless wisdom of our elders.

    Listeners are encouraged to follow us on social media to stay updated on future episodes and join the conversation by sharing their own experiences with the Crone Archetype using our hashtag #Askawitch. Don't forget to subscribe to our podcast on your favorite platform and leave us a review!

    Dear Bellamy,

    I want to ask you about Glamour Magick. I heard this term recently, it resonated with me, but yet, I don’t know much about it. It is my understanding that to put a “glamour” on someone, is to make them see a person or an object as something that they are not. I feel like I do this, unintentionally, on a daily basis. See, my fashion style is what some would call eclectic. When I step out into the world wearing these items, I feel exotic and daring. But in reality, underneath it all I feel pretty small. I am projecting this strong confident image, but this is my glamour to the world. My specific question is, am I using this glamour as a crutch? Sometimes I feel like I am deceiving myself and others by portraying a persona that isn’t my true self. It almost feels like I am using these costumes and makeup to protect my soft squishy persona inside. Is it helping me to be the strong and confident person I want to be? I feel like I am a long way off from feeling the way my clothing projects. How would you suggest I approach glamour? I'm missing something.

    In this compelling episode, host Bellamy Black sits down with Alder (they/them), a glamour magic practitioner, to explore the transformative power of personal aesthetics. Join us as we delve into the world of glamour magic, where clothes, makeup, tattoos, piercings, and hairstyles become tools for both concealment and empowerment. Alder shares their journey with glamour magic and how it has evolved over time, highlighting the ways we can use our appearance to shape perceptions and influence how we are perceived.

    The discussion covers the role of fashion, makeup, tattoos, and piercings in self-expression, offering practical tips for incorporating glamour magic into everyday life. We also explore the unique ways goth culture embraces and utilizes glamour magic, providing a powerful means of self-expression and identity.

    A significant portion of the episode addresses how personal trauma and experiences of abuse have shaped our use of glamour magic. Alder and Bellamy discuss healing and reclaiming power through intentional self-presentation, sharing inspiring stories of transformation and empowerment through aesthetic choices.
