On the Secret Witch Show today, Nicole is naming the Oracle Witch within - the part of us with 'spiritual brilliance' who sees clearly, hears guidance, feels truth, and simply knows things that others don't. As the veil thins toward Samhain, she speaks to the Secret Witch who's been taught that logic is what matters and has learned to second-guess her intuition, hide her gifts, or doubt the unseen. With tenderness and truth, Nicole invites us to remember our innate connection to other worlds - and shares the 'Clear Quartz crystal' medicine that amplifies what's already within.

In this episode we explore how Clear Quartz (the 'Master Healer') as an archetypal essence helps us move from overthinking and control into embodied spiritual clarity - reclaiming our 'Clairs' (clairvoyance, clairaudience, clairsentience, claircognisance) and trusting the Oracle wisdom in our bones. Nicole maps the shadow of over-reliance on logic, honours the wounds that made us dim our brilliance, and offers simple practices and enquiries to rebuild self-trust. It's a seasonal rite of remembrance - and a gentle invitation into October's Apothecary journey with Clear Quartz for those who feel the resonance.

What You'll Learn from this Episode:

• Your 'Oracle' gifts aren't non-existent - they're 'hidden'. Doubt and second-guessing come from conditioning that taught you that 'logic' is superior. Your 'Clairs' (seeing, hearing, feeling, knowing) are recoverable - with practice and compassion

• Clear Quartz amplifies the Oracle gifts already in you. As the Archetypal Remedy of brilliance and clarity, she doesn't add something new - she magnifies your inner knowing and mirrors the truth so you can finally trust yourself

• Over-reliance on logic can be a wound. When safety has meant "prove it," we overthink, control, and disconnect from the body - that's a survival strategy, not your truth, and it's exactly what Clear Quartz helps to heal

• Gold = the alchemy of intuition and intellect. We are not being asked to reject logic and science; we're invited to weave it with body wisdom so our spiritual and intellectual brilliance can work together as one coherent clarity - true healing is science and art.

• Samhain is a threshold for trust. With the veil thin, it's an ideal season to practise listening for signs, synchronicities and bodily nudges - begin with small playful 'intuition' experiments (note them, track them) and rebuild self-trust.

• Start simple: inquire, feel, record. Ask where you override resonance, where you hide brilliance, and when an intuition is proved true, journal these 'evidence' moments to soothe the rational mind and reclaim your inner Oracle Witch.
