What If The Moon Is What You are Missing with Manifesting - Jen Sankey

"What is Divination? How does it Work?" - Roundtable Dialogue

Text the Show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2330079/fan_mail/new] Hi Everybody, Granddaughter Crow Here. With yet another episode of Belief, Being, & BEYOND! On this show, we love bringing Great People to Great People. Week after week, Jenny C. Bell and I get to showcase Amazing Authors, Authentic Creators, and Dedicated Spiritualists and every once in a while we host a Roundtable Dialogue where we can sit down with these creators. And tonight, is a Roundtable Night. At our last Roundtable we explored the complex topic of AI or Artificial Intelligence vs the HI or Human Intelligence. How people in the Spiritual and Witchcraft community view AI” in 2026! It was a brilliant dialogue, and We did have an anonymous consensus on “Using AI as a Spiritual Advisor, is NOT the Best idea”  So, that begs the question, “What are other options to connect with spirit?” Tonight, We are going to explore the topic of “Divination”! What is it and different tools… and see where the dialogue takes us.  We have an expansive panel for you tonight… So let’s start the show!  Divination looks mysterious from the outside, but the reality is much more human: it’s what we reach for when we need clarity, perspective, and a path forward. This Roundtable includes experienced readers, authors, and creators to unpack what divination, how it works, and the wander of it all. From tarot and oracle cards to runes, pendulums, charms, bones, moon phases, and pure intuitive hits, we compare tools and the real reasons they help people make sense of their lives.    We also get practical about ritual and process. We talk about opening sacred space, setting ego aside, grounding before and after a session, and more. You’ll hear why asking better questions matters, how consent and dialogue can deepen a reading, and what to do when a card doesn’t make sense right away. If you’ve ever wondered whether you “have to” pull cards every day, or felt guilty when your practice ebbs and flows, we give you permission to build a divination practice that fits your body, your schedule, and your reality.    Finally, we name the quiet truths that newer readers rarely hear: many pros won’t read for themselves when as they might be too close to the outcome. Self-doubt is often the biggest block. Divination is a kind of literacy and a practice of attention, one that gets stronger with time, play, experimentation, and trust.

Divergent Witchcraft - Most Powerful Spells!

Text the Show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2330079/fan_mail/new] Magick is as dynamic as we are! We’re joined by Jenny C. Bell, author of Divergent Witchcraft, to talk about building an inclusive witchcraft practice for real humans: ADHD minds, autistic learners, highly sensitive people, and anyone who has ever felt “other” in a world built around someone else’s rules.    We unpack why Jenny chose the word “divergent” instead of trying to speak for every form of neurodivergence, and how witches are already deviating from the norm just by claiming the word witch. From there, we go deeper into deconstruction: how Abrahamic religious frameworks, Puritan work ethic, and cultural pressure can teach obedience, shame, and disconnection, and how self-sovereignty becomes a core magical skill.    Then we get practical. Jenny shares meditation options for people who can’t sit still, including walking meditation and “meditative moments” that happen while you craft, doodle, or move. We talk journaling with purpose (especially writing to your future self), speaking spells out loud through breath and vibration, simple summer solstice rituals that celebrate sunshine without pressure, and using music playlists as a powerful ally for manifestation and energy work.    If this resonates, subscribe, share the episode with a friend, and leave us a review so more divergent witches can find their way home.

Healing The Land, Healing Ourselves- Dr. Maceo Carrillo Martinet

Text the Show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2330079/fan_mail/new] The fastest way to lose the future is to forget the past, what the land already taught our ancestors. Granddaughter Crow sits down with Dr. Maceo Carrillo Martinet, ecologist, educator, and community restoration practitioner, to explore why climate change adaptation is as much about relationship as it is about data. His book Healing the Land Teaches Us Who We Are brings “hard science” into conversation with Indigenous knowledge, history, and cultural resistance, insisting that restoration work has to heal people and place at the same time. We dig into how cycles and interdependence show up in both ecology and traditional teachings, and why linear “progress” can blind us to solutions that have worked for thousands of years. Dr. Martinet shares a powerful watershed restoration story from a legal water meeting where the default answer is bigger dams and bigger budgets, but the evidence points back to small rock dams placed high in the mountains. Those humble structures can slow runoff, increase infiltration, and bring back grasses, wildlife, and resilience, turning wounded land into a sponge again. From there, we widen the lens to common lands, biodiversity, and the overlooked history of communal stewardship across the world, including Europe. We also challenge the words we use, unpacking how language can be a companion of empire and how even the word “nature” can carry separation. Along the way, we talk about listening to the land’s soundscape and why the “languages of life” matter if we want real ecological restoration, sustainable futures, and community healing. If this conversation sparks something in you, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a review so more listeners can find Belief Being and Beyond. Bio:  For over 24 years, Dr. Maceo Carrillo Martinet has been co-creating and implementing community-based ecological restoration and education projects across New Mexico and beyond. Helping communities restore land and water has been both his professional and personal passions and obligations since he can remember. His book: “Healing the Land Teaches Us Who We Are”, published by North Atlantic Books, is a culmination of his experiences working in community on projects to restore the land, but also attempts to situate ecological restoration into historical and cultural context in these tumultuous times. He received his doctorate in biology from the University of New Mexico where he focused on ecology, freshwater sciences and environmental education. Presently, he teaches a hands-on course at UNM on watershed and community restoration, and is planning to take students to do this work internationally. https://maceocm.com/ [https://maceocm.com/] Support the show [https://www.patreon.com/GranddaughterCrow] Granddaughter Crow - www.granddaughtercrow.com Check Out My Patreon https://www.patreon.com/GranddaughterCrow  Check Out My Substack https://substack.com/@granddaughtercrow [https://substack.com/@granddaughtercrow] Social Media: @GranddaughterCrow  YouTube Channel: @GranddaughterCrow Jenny C Bell - https://www.jennycbell.com/ Jenny’s Our Coven Community https://our-coven.mn.co/landing For more from Jenny: https://linktr.ee/Jennyc.bell?utm_source=linktree_profile_share

What If The Moon Is What You are Missing with Manifesting - Jen Sankey

Text the Show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2330079/fan_mail/new] Manifestation gets sold like a shortcut, but your life doesn’t change on a timer. We sit down with author, tarot reader, and professional witch Jen Sankey to talk about a different approach: manifesting with the moon in a way that’s tangible, repeatable, and built for real humans with full schedules, real emotions, and zero interest in gatekeeping. We dig into why so many people feel stuck with modern “high vibration” manifesting culture, and why strict moon phase rules online can freeze new witches in place. Jen breaks down how every phase of the lunar cycle has a purpose, so you’re not waiting around for a perfect new moon or second guessing whether the full moon is “only” for releasing. We also explore the difference between tossing a wish into the universe and building momentum through reflection, action, and honest self inquiry. One of the most helpful takeaways is Jen’s framework of lunar spirit, lunar mind, and lunar body, plus how tarot spreads can help you narrow your intention, spot resistance, and stop manifesting goals you don’t even want. Along the way, we call out red flags in pricey manifestation programs, share practical ways to work with current moon timing, and get a fun peek behind the scenes of tarot deck creation and Jen’s upcoming projects. If this gives you a new way to work with your intuition, help us keep the show going: subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review. _______ Jen Sankey is an author, deck creator, tarot reader, professional witch, and speaker.
