When London's Esoteric Shops Are Opening Their Doors

With non-essential retailers now allowed to open for customers, I'm delighted to say that most of London's esoteric shops and witchcraft suppliers are welcoming customers back in person. Here's a list with the details:

Atlantis Bookshop

The Atlantis Bookshop will be opening its doors once more on Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 10.30am to 6pm, starting Thursday, 15th April. Bali and Geraldine (pictured, photo supplied by Atlantis) will be working from home Monday to Wednesday each week, so you can still phone and email to order books. Geraldine and Bali thanked their customers and friends for all the messages of thanks and support during the downtime and said: "To say we are excited to be able to get back to Museum Street and see you, our dear and wonderful customers, is an understatement. We cannot wait to see you all in real life again soon." Atlantis Bookshop is at 49a Museum Street, London, WC1A 1LY. You can still order books by phoning 020 7405 2120 or emailing atlantis@theatlantisbookshop.com and you can visit the Atlantis website for more details and sign up for a newsletter.

Buddha on a Bicycle
This shop selling Buddhist and Hindu items as well as crystals is open again on 12th April.  A message on its website said: "To celebrate our re-opening from April 12th, for one week only every BOAB customer who buys online or in-shop will be given a 10 per cent discount, free tote bag and a BOAB badge. Welcome back!" Buddha on a Bicycle is at 27 Endell St, West End, London, WC2H 9BA.

House of Spells
I've not been able to find out precisely when the magical merchandise shop House of Spells is physically open again, but you can browse its website and get little discount online using this link:  https://houseofspells.co.uk/discount/BADW1 The shop is at 69-71 Charing Cross Rd, West End, London WC2H 0NE. 

Kirkdale Bookshop

While this lovely bookshop isn't specifically an esoteric store, it does have my own special blessing, so I'm delighted that I'll be able to pop in again in person to say hello to the staff. Kirkdale Bookshop is probably the oldest independent bookshop in south east London. It is the closest to where I live, and has kindly stocked my own books on magic. It is reopening its doors at 9.30am on Monday 12th April and is at 272 Kirkdale, London SE26 4RS, near Sydenham station. @KirkdaleBooks tweeted: "The end of the Kirkdale cocoon experience. Thank you for your support during this chrysalidal period. See you on Monday." You can find the website here.

Pagan Portals Scrying: Unwrapping the First Copies

 

Here's a video of me unwrapping the very first copies of my latest book Pagan Portals - Scrying.  These are my author copies, it won't be officially published until early next year, but is available to pre-order from publisher Moon Books' website. Here's the description of the book, also from the website:

Scrying is the practice of looking into crystal balls, mirrors, water, fire, clouds and many other things to see visions, find messages and gain knowledge. It can be done for personal guidance, for inspiration, to find the answers to questions, to look at distant places or other realms, or for fortune-telling and prophecy. It is a form of divination that taps into our psychic senses and powers of intuition. Pagan Portals - Scrying shows how anyone can learn to develop the necessary skills to scry in a variety of different ways.

You can also view Pagan Portals - Scrying on Amazon.

Extract from The Secret People by Melusine Draco

Here is an excerpt from a superb book by Melusine Draco: The Secret People. This extract is taken from ‘The Parish Healer’ chapter under Old Wives’ Tales - a dismissive expression normally used to indicate that a supposed truth is actually a superstition to be ridiculed. Melusine explains that such ‘tales’ were considered to be unverified claims with exaggerated and inaccurate details, often focussing on ‘women’s concerns’, discouraging unseemly behaviour in children, or folk cures for ailments ranging from a headache to in-growing toenails. 

Old Wives’ Tale

Old Women’s Sayings was a song published on ‘Broadside’ by a number of 19th century printers, the earliest being John Pitts and James Catnach. A broadside was a large sheet of paper printed on one side only. They were usually posters announcing events or proclamations, or simply advertisements. Broadsides are difficult to date accurately since all the printers copied each other’s work as a matter of course, but the earliest versions seem to date from c.1835. 

Draw near and give attention

And you shall hear in rhyme

The old women’s saying

In the olden time.

High and low, rich and poor

By daylight or dark

Are sure for to make

Some curious remark

With some foolish idea

Your brains they will bother

For some believes one thing

And some believes another.

Chorus:

These are odds and ends

And superstitious ways

The signs and tokens

Of my grandmother’s days.

The first thing you will see

At the house of rich or poor

To keep the witches out

A horseshoe’s o’er the door;

Bellows on the table

Cause a row by day and night

If there’s two knives across

You are sure to have a fight;

There’s a stranger in the grate

Or if the cat should sneeze

Or lay before the fire

It will rain or freeze.

A cinder with a hole

In the middle, is a purse

But a long one from the fire

Is a coffin – which is worse;

A spider ticking in the wall

Is the death-watch at night

A spark in the candle

Is a letter, sure as life;

If your right eye itches

You’ll cry till out of breath

A winding sheet in the candle

Is a sure sign of death.

If your left eye itches

You will laugh outright

But the left or right

Is very good at night;

If your elbow itch

A strange bedfellow found

If the bottom of your foot itch

You’ll tread on strange ground;

If your knee itch you’ll kneel

In a church, that’s a good ’un

And if your belly itch

You’ll get a lot of pudden.

If your back should itch

I do declare

Butter will be cheap

When the grass grows there

If the dog howl at night

Or mournfully cry

Or if the cock should crow

There will be someone die;

If you stumble up stairs

Indeed I’m no railer

You’ll be married to a snob

Or else to a tailor.

A speck on your finger nail

Is a gift that’s funny

If your hand itch in the middle

You will get some money;

Spilling of salt

Is anger outright

You will see a ghost if the doors

Should rattle in the night;

If your sweetheart

Dreams of bacon and eggs

She’ll have a little boy

That has got three legs.

The cat washing her face

The wind will blow

If the cat licks her foot

It is sure to snow;

Put your gown or your jacket

On, inside out

You will change your luck

And be put to the route [sic]

If your nose itches

You’ll get vexed till you jump

If your great toe itch

You’ll get a kick in the rump.

If a girl snaps one finger

She’ll have a child it seems

And if she snaps two

She’s sure to have twins;

And if she snaps eight

Nine, ten, or eleven

It’s a chance if she don’t

Have twenty and seven;

If you lay with your head

Underneath the clothes

You’ll have an ugly old man

What has got no nose.

If you see a star shoot

You’ll get what you wish

If a hair gets in your mouth

You’ll get as drunk as a fish;

If your little toe itch

You’ll be lost in a wave

If you shiver there’s somebody

Going over your grave;

If you go under a ladder

You’ll have bad luck and fall

And so say bad luck

Is better than none at all;

So to please outright

I have told you in rhyme

The great superstition

Of the olden time.

Many of these sayings passed into family use although some differed around the country. For example, an itchy palm was said to show money was on the way, but some believe it’s the right hand, while others say: ‘Left hand receive,’ and rub the palm against wood. The explanation for the latter was that the receiver shook hands with the right hand, as they were receiving the ‘gift’ with their left. ‘It works every time,’ admitted one country woman. ‘It might only be a penny found in the street, but it has to be unexpected.’

In recent years, research has show that more and more of these old superstitions have more than a grain of truth in them, or have detected the logic behind the casual warnings. Whether they are fact or fiction, most people have grown up with their use within the family.

Witches Online: TV Programmes & Games Driving Trends

I’m not a TikTok witch, but I think everyone’s been doing things online more this past year – including witches. And what’s more, witches and witchcraft have become increasingly fashionable. I’ve seen a lot of threads on social media discussing whether this is a good thing or a bad thing. In this post I’m not going to tackle the subject of newcomers to the craft – or “baby witches” as the trending phrase seems to be – and how best to introduce them to real witchcraft rather than the TV version. That’s for a later post. What I’m going to be blogging about today is a few of the witch-themed things like TV programmes and games that are driving the fashion.

Fictional Witchcraft on TV

I’m sure anyone likely to read this post is aware of the hugely popular Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. The American series about the teenage witch Sabrina Spellman was based on an Archie comic book series of the same name, which also inspired the earlier 1996 series Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Sadly the recent version only ran to four seasons before being cancelled, but you can still find it on Netflix. I must admit I really enjoyed it, although opinions on pagan social media groups are usually divided. The issue is that Sabrina is a Satanic witch rather than a pagan. Some people feel this gives newcomers the incorrect idea that real-world witchcraft is about worshipping the devil and cursing rather than celebrating the seasons and doing healing spells.

More recently, WandaVision came to Disney+. This is based on more magical characters from comic books: Wanda Maximoff, or the Scarlet Witch, and her partner Vision. This takes inspiration from 1960s TV sitcoms I Dream of Jeannie, about a genie living in 20th century America, and Bewitched, about a witch who marries a mortal and tries to be a suburban housewife, but using a little magic to solve everyday problems. I don’t want to give away too many spoilers, but WandaVision also has an appearance by another witchy character.

Witch Inspired Slot-Based Games

I’m not really a gambler, but my fellow blogger Alex pointed out to me that the world of online casinos has been booming lately, and one surprising theme we can see pop up in them is magic! While it’s no surprise to see that classic table games like Poker, Roulette, and Baccarat do well on these websites, the popularity of magic and witch-themed slot games was somewhat of a surprise. You can take a spin on this site, and give these fan-favorite modern games a try right now.

It seems that everyone wants a bit of magic in their life in one way or another and themed slots do an excellent job of giving it to them. While we can’t miss that many of these themed slots take a silly approach to the witch trope, it’s still nice to see witches not depicted as terrifying monsters. These action-packed games incorporate the witch theme into gameplay by adding symbols like cauldrons, spell books, and hats, along with mysteriously haunting music.

Looking Ahead

I’m going to be blogging more about Witchcraft online in the future, but in the meantime, do leave a comment about your own favourite witches in popular media.

Note: Please be responsible when spending online.
