The Science Witch Podcast

Welcome to the 35th episode of the Science Witch Podcast!

In this episode, Enku and Anjel discuss gender, what it is and what it is not, and also how incorporating gender fluidity in your witchcraft practice can be a potent source of power. Enku introduces the topic that he has studied for much of his academic career and discusses how gender is a social construct. They discuss how gender can further be used as a polarity and spectrum and how this empowers the witch to play with gender as a liminal space.

Welcome to the first episode in our Patreon exclusive series, Deity Deep Dives.

In this inaugural episode of Deity Deep Dives, a Patreon mostly series, Anjel testifies their devotion to Seshat, Egyptian Goddess of math and science and “she who is foremost in the house of books”. This episode is one part information about the Goddess Seshat and one part personal gnosis as Anjel shares their devotional practice and how it has inspired this podcast and their scientific aspirations. This episode is also a dedication to Anjel’s tarot teacher, friend and mentor, Richard Stratton who passed away around this time in 2020. Anjel shares a poem written by Richard about Egypt as they bonded in their love of the Goddess of books and record keeping.

Transcripts for this episode available here.
