We are a magick school for spiritually minded people who want advice and resources about, plus training on, using our ‘philosophy and art of affecting intended change through unseen causes’ (known as humanistic magick) in order to make changes that improve their work and lifestyle. Our podcast is an edutaining look at magick’s representation in pop culture and how far films and TV shows get it right or wrong. This helps manage expectations for how magick is used in the 'real world' to make change happen. You can find out more about us at magentaschoolofmagick.com.

The One About Self Esteem

Dec 30 2023 47 mins

In our season finale, we are looking at our esteem needs, and how far Hollywood takes the trope that everyone needs - or does not need - magick to overcome their issues and their belief in themselves. Using an example from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, we look at whether acceptance of the self, and belonging needs, can truly be found in magickal working. We also have a look at how we h

The One About Self Actualisation

Dec 16 2023 38 mins

Today’s episode is a look at how humanistic magick is used to bring people, and ourselves, towards our true potential. Achieving this is what is called being self actualised. We talk about Carl Rogers and Maslow, how they provide the backdrop to humanistic magick and how employers could use these principles, and Lego naturally, to provide a better working environment. Hopefully b

The One Where We Just Decide To Be Magickal

Dec 02 2023 40 mins

In this episode we are asking the question “Can you decide to be magick or is it something you are born like?” Looking at examples from Star Wars, the Rivers of London book series and others where the protagonist is often revealed by a mentor to have spiritual or magick prowess within. Is there still a place for learning magick (or even magick powers, like The One About Divinat

The One With Magick (mostly Tarot) In The Workplace

Nov 18 2023 38 mins

In this episode we are looking at how to bring magick (mostly Tarot to be fair) into the Boardroom, conference room, meeting room, staff room, and annual appraisal. We draw a connection between our astrology in the boardroom episode, and posit that if we were clever enough, or had a vast pot of gold, we could work with a developer to build a personality profile tool using the meani

The One Where We Read a Birth Chart

Nov 04 2023 43 mins

In this episode we are looking at astrological natal, or birth, charts and their applicability in the workplace. We read one of our own birth charts to identify real-world uses for these tools in a mainstream context. We have used a free tool on Cafe Astrology to produce a detailed report, and we’ll talk about how accurate it is. We get into what some of the astrological words me

The Musical One (The One Where Magick Is Everywhere At All Once)

Oct 21 2023 48 mins

In this episode we are looking at magick’s representation in music and songs, and how far magick has made its way into mainstream consciousness, or least into HMV. We’ll talk about lots of different bands and artists, such as The Police, Fleetwood Mac, Nina Simone and whether or not songs when used in films and TV become open to interpretation through the lens of magick. Plus w

The One Where Fate Versus Free Will

Oct 07 2023 35 mins

In this episode we are looking at whether fate and free will are in a secret battle, using us as pawns in a weird chess game. Can you choose your own path or is it all mapped out for us long before we are born? Pop culture has so many tropes, even casting Fate as a character in many shows like Charmed. We’ll talk about how prophesy, and whether there is a grand plan, is dealt wit

The One About The Multiverse

Sep 23 2023 47 mins

In this episode we are looking at one of the weirder ideas brought to us from science and pop culture, The Multiverse. What is it? How many are there? How do I go visit one of the other ones? Well, we might not be able to answer all of those questions, we do at least have a go. We’ll talk about how Sliding Doors, all the Star Treks and Marvel shows draw on the concept of many wo

The One About Sex Magick

Jun 24 2023 46 mins

We open our show with a terrible pun and a fair warning that this one is probably not safe for work and will prompt younger listeners to ask several questions, if you’re listening with younger people in the car. In this episode we talk about what sex magick is, go on a little bit of a rant about Aleister Crowley, sharing a potted history along the way. Using examples from Disney
