In this powerful and evocative episode, Karagan and Michael delve into an illuminating interview from The Magic in You, a YouTube series hosted by Frances Billinghurst. The focus is on the remarkable Galatea – a long-standing Alexandrian witch and priestess initiated in the original London coven during the foundational years of the tradition.
Karagan and Michael reflect on Galatea’s extraordinary insights, exploring her direct experiences with Alex Sanders, her role as a coven maiden, and her perspective on how Alexandrian Wicca has evolved – particularly in contrast between the UK and the US.
Themes explored include:
🔹 The emergence and significance of the "Alexandrian" label
🔹 Initiation as magical transformation, not mere symbolism
🔹 Differences between Alexandrian and Gardnerian practice
🔹 The vital importance of independence, solitary work, and personal devotion
🔹 The role of simplicity and intention in ritual
🔹 The dangers of materialism and ego in modern craft
🔹 The sacred interplay between witch, deity, and daily life
With warmth and reverence, the hosts share memories of time spent with Galatea, including a touching moment at Buckingham Palace and her profound connection to the Goddess Diana.
Whether you're an initiate, a seeker, or a curious listener, this episode offers timeless wisdom, practical insight, and a rare glimpse into the living history of Alexandrian witchcraft.
