Dave Gaddy, Southern Witchcraft, and Animal Lessons | Music, Myth & Magick - Season 2 Ep. 9
Dave Gaddy is a southern witch (or as he spells it, wytch) and the author of the book, The Simple Magick of Wild Things. In this interview, we discuss his background (including how he started his spiritual journey as a pastor), Appalachian Folk Magick, connecting with our ancestors, and learning lessons from animals. I also learned a bunch of new terms, like "haint," "holler," and "booger woods."

This is a great crafting opportunity, especially around Imbolc. Some people hang them around the house to protect against evil or fires, but you can also just use them as cool decorations. I...

Thanks man! I ordered one and then watched your video, I’m even more excited for it to arrive tomorrow! I dabble with guitar, bamboo flute, and piano, so I am beyond excited! Thanks for your review/opinion/encouragement! 😎
Ritual? You mean worship!
Are there frequently times when the two words are synonymous though?
❤❤❤😂
Amazing. Fab editing too.xx
Thank you for the encouraging words! I’m glad you enjoyed the video.
Well... I guess I win the Typo Hunter prize this time... because the overlay should say "Episode 9" instead of "Episode 8" Oh well. That's what happens when I try new things!
Great explanation!! Thank you 🙏
I’m glad you found it helpful! Thanks for the comment.
Beautiful song and sung!! May the Old Ones bless you and light your path. Bright Blessing 🌒🌕🌘🕯🌲
Bright blessings to you as well!
I've just asked this question on another video on Saint Bridget. Seeing as early Christians, finding it hard to change traditional customs of worship, rededicated holy wells and festivals to Christian saints rather than pagan deities, I wonder if straw figures were made of something else before Christianity? Perhaps figures of the goddess? Interesting that the video suggests a solar symbol. Perhaps like the circle in celtic high crosses is taught in Irish schools to represent the face of god but was to equate the sun god with the single god of Christianity.
Well, if I'm understanding you correctly, I think I talk about that a little bit in my video on Corn Dollies. Stories say that each year, the last sheaves of wheat were fashioned into a dolly where the spirit of harvest could reside until the crops in the field grew back. We might not know exactly what they looked like, but I think it's highly likely that people used any common material to form depictions of their gods.
@@AerikArkadian so it may have originally have been a solar symbol or a human type figure but the knowledge of exactly what it was has been lost, at least as far as imbolc is concerned?
@@michaelcaffery5038 well, just to be clear, the corn dolly and brigids cross are two completely different things. I was just using that as an example of people weaving things out of common materials, such as wheat. From what I've read, the first attestation of a "brigids cross" was probably around the 17th century, but solar crosses have been used since neolithic times. It's just about what lens you're using when you frame history I guess.
Incredible rendition Aerik. So original. Inspiring. Bravo. Amazing voice. Curious to know where you’re from. Many thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the kind words! I'm very glad you enjoyed it. And to satisfy your curiosity, I live in Florida.
I'm going to make one from palmetto fronds. Ultimately, I don't think it matters whether this shape was christian or pagan. In fact, the idea that such a shape is considered meaningful by both gives it more cred.
And ultimately, I guess what is most important is what it means to you personally. If you make one from palm fronds, I'd love to see it!
I have tons of Broom Sedge
If you make one out of broom sedge, definitely show it off!
Super special Areik...❤
Thank you… I think?
I know I'm late but I'd love a part 3!
I find the best way to learn to play this is with the lowest note toward me. Once I learned the 4 basic chords it became really easy; 752, 513, 613, 461. I play with my hands, which is tricky to get the hang of but I like having that physical connection with it over mallets.
@@Flippokid totally agree. With any sort of tongue drum or hand pan, I think most people will find that as one of the more natural positions. Also to me it just kind of makes logical sense that the notes get higher as they go further away.
Good
Glad you think so!
You show real ignorance by deleting my factual comment. The history of singing bowls is known and I told you what it is. It's nothing like what you say. This video is full of misinformation. You deleted my comment correcting your false statements. So you have no interest in the truth. You just want to sound intelligent but this video is nonsense. Nothing in it is correct.
What a big waste of your time and rip off.
Yeah I can totally see why you’d think that, but luckily I didn’t jump into this thinking j was going to get rich
In my youth, I spent so much time behind a drum set in punk bands. But now that I am older, I am really enjoying meditation, and meditation style druming. My wife suprised me with a tounge drum for Christmas, and I am absololutley loving it!
What a fantastic gift! How has your previous experience on drum kits transferred to this particular type of instrument?
So unthinkable that I do it every few months. lol
Haha yes. Still, it felt rather fortuitous to me!
It's like you've got the Violet Flame of St. Germain behind you...I love it :)
I know dude! It was the perfect Yule gift. Thank you!
The book of the dammed (darkhold) is just a MCU thing, not really related to witchcraft, it's from the Sorceres, was guarded by the Sorcerer Supreme before Wanda destroyed it
Yeah you’re totally right. I guess my point was that there are a lot of people (especially those seeking initiatory witchcraft) who think they’re going to get handed this ancient book of shadows full of Harry Potter spells
My boyfriend plays the steel drum, I just bought him one for Christmas as well
That’s fantastic! What a cool gift. Thanks for the comment!
I love Christopher so much. His books are what I started my practice off of 12 years ago. And I suggest them to everyone
Agree! He’s fantastic
Nice
Thank you!
You did very well brother. May the god and goddess bless you and your future endeavors
Thank you for this comment. Very kind words!
Sir...redo, without plug and moving dial. It will then be SMIB. ❤
Aw, but that's the story though! Miss you guys by the way
I gotta say this- beyond your musicianship, the video is so smart. It's such a reclaiming and acknowledging the old and the new together. Chef's kiss, no notes.
Your words are too kind, but I sure do appreciate them!
I prefer O father O satan O sun by Behemoth. Check it out 🤘
What a lovely joining of talents!
Hopefully just one of many in the future
@@AerikArkadian For sure!!!!!!
You did a fabulous job with this. SO so good. Thank you!
Again, thank you for the use of these beautiful lyrics. Can’t say it enough!
@@AerikArkadian I hope we collab much and often!!!!!!!
I love this! 💙
This streaming model is the worse! I don’t understand why musicians and artists are so undervalued. Smh…. We put so much into our craft and don’t even get a penny’s worth for our art. Smh….
It really is quite terrible for smaller artists. On positive side, however, it is nice to be able to easily distribute.
Wow, lost in space.?
That movie was kind of a flop to be honest
Oh, cute!🖤
Was delicious!
my teacher used to say: "Do not harm, but take no sh-" Still following that quote / "rule" today
Haha yeah I like that saying too!
I’ve been waiting for this
Sorry it took a little longer to get out than I thought!
@ nah, ur good
Yipeeeeeeeeeeeee🖤
Hope you enjoy it!
@ I did!
save money to invest in your catalog. and you will make more money. and you must get a pro, and become a publisher to get more money. its more then just distrokid revenue.
So if you had $50 to drop, where would you spend it?
Great drum! Just reminds me of RAV Vast as it looks like a knockoff, lol!
Thanks! Actually I have a video about RAV drums also and a few shorts where I play mine. In my opinion they’re both variations on slit drums, but RAV is different enough to be its own thing due to the complicated tongue geometry.
I love Jack and his work. The interview was amazing! Jack should get more clout because he knows so much. I learned so much!
He really is a wealth of knowledge!
Are you going to do the rest of the series?
Working on the next set of episodes now. Hope to have it out within the week!
😂😂😂 IT'S DADDY'S 🐦.... DON'T TELL MUMMY 😂😂😂.... love 😘 DrEva
I'm 67 years old with no music skills whatsoever but between this drum and a handpan, I just love hearing the tones and want to play some myself. Really enjoyed your video!
Wow! Thanks for the comment. These instruments are pretty amazing, right? I’m sure if you grab one, you’ll be playing some enchanting melodies in no time! And hand pans are a lot of fun too… I’ll have to make a video specifically about them soon.
Happy Halloween
Hope you had a great one!
@@AerikArkadian I did, thank you! Even if we didn't get to trick or treat! 😅 I hope you had a good Halloween! 🎃👻🍬
We have the exact same cat 😂. This is black cat season 🧡🖤🤎
This ones name is Loki.
go canes
Gawd I love listening to thorn it’s always truth 💣
I’ve been obsessed with this show and energetically it’s interesting due to the time it’s been aired during the lunar escape and second moon. Disney knew exactly what they was doing 😂. I love the all the lore of witchcraft and new lore. It’s not just witchcraft but it goes into general spiritual concepts like grounding (they have to take their shoes off on the road ) etc. The forming a coven by witchy “ enough “ people meaning people with general spiritual abilities I did enjoy your video but this is only based on your particular practice which is not the same for every culture or every witch some of these things are somewhat made up like about the green skin. The moon having a water phase may be based on a different practice/belief
I totally dig all that. And regardless of how “real” it is, I’m still enjoying the show. For what it’s worth, I did say “please don’t take any of this too seriously” at the end of the video 🤣
awesome intro! excited to see what your channel has to offer, blessings!
Thanks for stopping by and for the comment!
great listen, I enjoyed hearing him talk about what he has done with his life. a question for you if you don't mind, I've been down many rabbit holes, the path of christ conciousness to the kybalion and calling on Hermes, to being exposed to info that suggests these entities are the annunaki just telling their story and wrapping us up in it. do you have any thoughts on this? through it all ive found myself healthier than ever, I believe from just embracing the mystery and being a student to this life, but to say any of it has really opened my eyes to my purpose and a place of feeling secure would be a lie. I was visited one night by who I can only name "the brother/sisterhood of light" golden illuminated beings surrounded me and I felt like I was being initiated, it was heavenly. I just can't seem to put the pieces together to feel sure of what I am experiencing. looking g back, I can say this happened at a time when I was driving into the teachings in the kybalion, maybe that's all I need to know but curious if you have anything that comes to mind when you read this.
5:16 Actually, quirky flashing lights are indicative of the presence of other entities which is something that occasionally occurs and accompanied by ringing in the ears when they're trying to tell you someting. Let's just say I've had some experience with this, so I'd give it a pass.
Interesting point!
