#26 - Briar - The Beheading Game: Unearthing the Occult Mysteries of the Celtic Cult of the Head
“Welcome to the Summer solstice edition of the Hadean podcast, this month we welcome Briar, folk witch, cunning woman, sister of the Concealed Cortege, and author of The Beheading Game - Unearthing the Occult Mysteries of the Celtic Cult of the Head. In this Guide to the Underworld Briar leads us on a journey into ancient practices of Beheading in Celtic cultures, the nature of the fae, of foreign Gods & the Lord of the Harvest, Crom, as well as the mysteries of the seat of the Soul, the Stars of Orion, and the harsh winds of the North. You are really in for an absolute treat with this episode, especially if you are interested in the manner in which traditions of spirit magic have evolved across the European continent.”

Analyse Féerique de Conte: Blanche-Neige
Dans ce podcast de plus de 3h30 (!), j’ai été l’invitée de Phro pour contribuer à son excellente série sur les sagesses animistes des contes de fées de notre enfance. Nous y proposons une étude approfondie de Blanche-Neige en nous appuyant sur la (les ?) version de Grimm, pour en explorer les strates symboliques et féeriques. Notre démarche conjointe cherche à exhumer les usages oubliés qui structurent, selon nous, les pratiques féeriques à l'œuvre dans le conte. Parmi les thèmes abordés : le pacte avec le territoire de la reine, la naissance d’une princesse changelin, la présence du Grand Œuvre alchimique, la figure de la reine-sorcière en tant que praticienne féerique, la transmission et le Destin, le processus de mythification, les rites funéraires, la féerie des montagnes (étoiles, quartz, glace, verre, nains, planètes, minerais), les travaux du foyer, la réparation d’une offense, et la triple mort féerique. Bonus : une version anglaise arrive très bientôt… Enjoy !
Radical Elphame
Hosted by Chad Andro
“A podcast about The Otherworld, and the people who engage with it. A journey through conversations with a wide array of thinkers, practitioners and writers. Join us as we delve into folklore, consciousness, the occult, and all the perennial mysteries that haunt and inspire us.”
Episode XXII: Fire-in-Water, Fire in the Head
“Today on the one year anniversary of Radical Elphame, we invite back the guest who helped us kick off this peculiar experiment: the delightful Briar of The Greene Chapel. We explore a recent essay she published on her Greene Chapel site: "The Lady with a Mead Cup," which dives into the primordial image of a virginal Cup Bearer, and how this mythopoetics relates to divinely inspired poetic inspiration and prophecy as a sacred ritual. We untangle the labyrinthian mystery of the Celtic "imbas forosnai," and its relationship to the lady of the day: Brighid. We do some UPG mind melding as well, exploring the relationship between Brighid and her theorized Mothers: The Morrigan AND Boann. It was such a blast reconnecting with Briar, and getting to celebrate Imbolc with someone who can capture and crystalize the essence of Brighid better than anyone.”

Episode 1:
Imbolc and The Shining Ones with Briar
“Briar of The Greene Chapel Blog joins us to talk about her Imbolc practice, and the complex relationship between the stars, the sea, and the Otherworld. Briar is a Faery Seer and Gallo-Irish Polytheist, and we explore her work with the land, the Fae, the gods and ungods.”
SaturnVox
Hosted by McCalla Ann
“A bi-weekly interview style podcast on Occult education with an emphasis on philosophy, psychology, theology, and critical thinking. Join host McCalla Ann, theurgist and student of magic + mysticism, as they engage in discussions with other practitioners of the Occult which honor that harmonious and liminal space between theory and praxis.”
“This week, we welcome traditional witch, cunning woman, and fairy doctor, Briar of the Greene Chapel, onto the pod to talk about their practice within the context of French fairy seership, holding right relations with the good neighbors, and their work as a fairy doctor. We also explore their recently published research on the potential connections between the fairy faith and the story of Joan of Arc. What does hospitality mean to the fae? What are the burdens and responsibilities of those who have been marked? How might we, as humans, best navigate the mercurial logic of the fae and their liminality? What is the importance of accepting we already live in an enchanted world? And, what does all of this have to do with Joan? All this and more, on this episode of SaturnVox.”

Season 2, Episode 37:
Briar of the Greene Chapel on Land, Lore and Language
“In the show we discuss how geographical boundaries overlap or don't in the spirit world and how language itself can be a portal. Briar takes us through her initiation and her meeting with the Dark Man. Towards the tail end of the show Briar takes us through her thoughts on Joan of Arc and the overlap with fairy lore. In the plus show we get into how the land where your magic happens may not be the land of your birth. We discuss Tor and the Green Chapel of Briar’s namesake. To close out we discuss the ordeal of initiation further and her relationship with the Goddess Bridget. A wonderful chat!”
