![]() ![]() Before launching her podcast in 2017, she created the occult blog Phantasmaphile, and wrote the short-but -lovely book What is a Witch, an “illuminated manifesto” about witchcraft through history. Pam Grossman, host of the podcast The Witch Wave, has been exploring and researching the history of witchcraft for years now. That this witchcraft Renaissance happening now is notable: Many women are justifiably angry, and so what if they just want to hang with their besties to binge-watch horror movies, eat cookies, brew potions, and hex the President? Add to that the proliferation of witchy imagery on Instagram and Tumblr, and the resurgence of astrology, tarot, and other holistic and metaphysical activities as tools for self-care, and it’s clear that people are enchanted and empowered by the rich symbolism of this movement. Between Sabrina and American Horror Story: Coven, Suspiria and The Love Witch, there sure has been a lot of witches in movies and on TV recently. To say witches are having a moment - as the teenage protagonist of The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina did in a recent episode - would be an understatement. ![]()
