Long before Punxsutawney Phil, civilizations practiced animal divination, watching creatures for signs of weather shifts, fate, and supernatural forces. But what if Groundhog Day isn’t just a quirky tradition—what if it’s a modern echo of an ancient ritual?
In this episode of The Empty Coffin, we unravel the dark origins of Groundhog Day, its deep ties to the Celtic festival of Imbolc, and why humans have always turned to animals as oracles of destiny. Joining us is Séamus the Druid, who shares his firsthand knowledge of ancient divination, mysticism, and forgotten supernatural traditions.
But Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, holds more than just a famous groundhog. Beneath its small-town charm lies a history of eerie energy, ghostly encounters, and strange phenomena. Local psychic medium and metaphysical therapist Alena Gourley reveals chilling tales of haunted spaces, unexplained sightings, and the lingering spiritual presence that still haunts the town.
Is Groundhog Day just folklore… or something far more mysterious?
🔥 Press play and uncover the chilling truth behind the “Rodent Oracle.”
