Episode 213: Altars pt. 5- Lughnasadh

Welcome back, Witches! This week we're continuing our altar series with pt 6, where we're diving into the magic of Lughnasadh. We'll explore symbolism, seasonal correspondences, & meaningful ways to build an altar that honors the first harvest. So get in Losers, grab your candles, gather your harvest treasures, and join us as we create a sacred space for this powerful sabbat.
