Phyllis Curott is a Wiccan High Priestess, lawyer, author, and spiritual pioneer. This archival interview from November 2001 was about the growing popularity of religions like Wicca and why they weren’t just popular to begin with. She touched on the origins of the propaganda against witches as dangerous people with green skin, big noses, and warts who will turn you into newts, and how the reality is that witches are really just people who pay close attention. She says this is the beginnings of magic as well – paying careful attention. The book in question in this interview was Witch Crafting: A Spiritual Guide to Making Magic.
