Aidan Wachter

WitchLit Podcast

This month Aidan Wachter joins me to talk about Charles Godfrey Leland’s 1899 book Aradia, or the Gospel of the Witches. We talk about how the book has influenced modern witchcraft, our own practices, and what we can take away from Aradia and what’s best left in the past.

You can find Aidan’s books most places that you purchase books and you can find out more about his work on his website. You can also follow him on Bluesky @aidanwachter,bsky.social.

In July, Charles Harrington will be joining me to discuss The Oracle Glass (1992) by Judith Merkle Riley. The book is available as an ebook and audiobook and widely available. My local library had the ebook to borrow but I found the audiobook especially helpful with keeping track of all the French names.

Please support Black, Indigenous, queer, trans, and women-owned, local, independent bookstores and occult shops.
