Summary
How do you genuinely connect with ancestors and spirits… without the theatrics, fear mongering, or over complication? In this episode of Between Three Witches , Gayle (The Witch Next Door), Vikkie (The Wheelie Green Witch), and ANON (The Anonymous Witch) unpack what ancestor and spirit work actually looks like in real, everyday practice, not the dramatised version social media often sells. Prompted by a thoughtful question from one of our Patreon listeners, we explore: What we really mean by “ancestors”, of blood, land, craft, and choice Why spirit communication is often subtle, not cinematic Simple, grounded daily practices that build connection over time Creating safe inner foundations before reaching outward Boundaries, discernment, and why protection isn’t paranoia The difference between healthy spirit companionship and escapism We talk about quiet acknowledgements, candles lit with intention, cooking family recipes, journaling dreams, and keeping offerings simple and meaningful. No strict rules. No gatekeeping. No pretending every breeze is a message. This conversation is about relationship, not performance. About staying rooted in the physical world while honouring what came before. And about trusting your intuition without losing your grounding. As always, we share laughs, life updates, and honest reflections on what this work really looks like behind closed doors. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re “doing it right,” or felt overwhelmed by dramatic expectations around spirit work, this episode is for you. And don’t miss our Sit With Us listener question at the end: What’s your favourite spell to cast, and your favourite tool to do it? Listen in, and may your practice meet you exactly where you are. G x
