No culture has ever been linear, except the very first ones that were isolated. Today most culture is a unique hybridization of multiple influences over time. Culture evolves as people discover things and share them with the rest of the world. But sometimes those discoveries are meant to be kept secret and sacred. Angela tackles cultural appropriation and how you can do more damage to your ancestral karma by not staying in your own lane, as well as the major differences between Wicca and Witchcraft. Learn the true purpose of smudging, the dangers of sage, wtf is up with Palo Santo, and so much more.
