As we wrap up a year of St. Anthony's Tongue, I am sharing a few takeaways and reflections that I've had during this journey. I want to start with the concept of Catholic Witchcraft and Magic.

The saints seem to appear in various folk rituals, which now run into what some call "folk magic" and with the rise of the term "witchcraft" - many have incorporated saints into these forms of spirituality. Therefore, I get asked a lot about saints in this framework.

In this episode I reflect on:

What is magic and witchcraft anyway?
The differences between magic and traditional Catholic rituals.
Why I do not call myself a witch, folk magician - and just call myself a Catholic.
The mental pitfalls of superstition.
The "hungry ghost realm" issue.
Why God is not a petty God.
+ More!
