All good things must come to an end…or at least take a wee break. Here we are at the conclusion of Season 1! Can you believe it, dear listener? It has been an amazing ride, and we have enjoyed every minute of it with you: our Middle Vibes family. In fact, that’s how this season closes: with a conversation about Covens and their immense importance as it relates to providing a safe, loving environment.

• M. does what she always does best and gets us started with a history of covens and how she thinks that came to be seen as “evil” to some. There are some fascinating parallels/references between covens and religion that are worth a listen and a rewind! [1:30]
• Covens have evolved over time and adapted to tools such as the internet/social media. The modern Coven looks very different from its traditional predecessor, and yet it still remains a powerful resource. [30:28] 
• In fact, the idea of Covens transcends witchcraft. B. &  M. take us through the history of Pride Month and explain how creating a safe space is vital to community. [37:58]

To charge or not to charge for your services, that is indeed the question. You will find that the answer nestled in this podcast is this: Yes and yes, again.

• B. + M. give some great insight as they talk about their journey with charging for Tarot services. In the beginning, it’s easy to underestimate the amount of energy it takes to guide people through a reading. As your favorite hosts will explain, this service requires much time, effort, and energy and you soon find that this is a service worth charging for…and that’s okay!  
• This listen closes out with a signature ritual from M. [48:50] and a Tarot pull from B. [50:52] that will get you prepared to harness the power of May 30th’s New Moon in Gemini.

Well, we’re here. The moment so many of you have been waiting for: M shares her experience with being in a cult. 

• Our dear M. walks us through her time in a cult, outlining the beginning to the end. [11:18] 
• There are some clear signs that arise when dealing with a cult but, as you will hear, it is not always easy to see when you are actually in the midst. From Proverbs 31 to 3 finger width shoulder straps, (yup, you heard us.) sit back and listen to this first-hand account. 
• After a quick cult Q&A session between B. + M. [46:10], the duo tackles a different type of cult: cancel culture. [59:26] You’ve heard B. + M. mention their disdain for this phenomenon in past episodes, but now you get to dig into the exact ‘why.’ 
• B reads Clementine Morrigan's tweet about the problem with cancel culture. [1:20:00]
• As always, don’t forget to fully absorb M.s ritual [1:24:00], which has a very pragmatic approach this time, and B.’s tarot pull. [1:29:00]  
• As a bonus, make sure you listen all the way to the end to hear what shenanigans McDonald’s is up to. (Trust us - it’s eyebrow-raising!)
