The Makings of a Magpie Oracle - Part 1: A Brief Introduction
I’ve been a practicing witch and pagan since I was 13 years old … that was a long time ago. I used the divination tools that were available to me at the time, being a small-town kid without internet (this was the ‘80s, mind you). I had a Gypsy Oracle Deck, some Tarot cards, and a pendulum. In my 30s, and again in my mid-40s, I started crafting divination tools – runes and pendulums, mainly. My first witchy business was called Airmed’s Attic, named after a Celtic Goddess. Then I created under the moniker The Art of Dreams & Divination. In 2022, all of that experience studying and crafting witchy goodies would lead to the beginning of Skulls & Cauldrons, which combined that love with a love of oddities & curiosities. It was that other love that pushed me into the world of bone throwing – something that, essentially, combined my two passions into one.
