Interview with the Witch Ebonylane: A Halloween Special

·56 min·3 clips

Ebony says magic that bends another person's will can 'come back times three.'

1. Yes And No Podcast frames this Halloween special around an interview with Ebony from Ebony Lane and her idea of 'inner magic.' 2. Arda hosts the conversation, Matt joins as co-host, and Ebony is introduced as the guest behind Ebony Lane and her handmade brand. 3. The episode asks whether candles, intention oils, and spells are tools for changing reality or ways of focusing attention. 4. Ebony says Ebony Lane makes candles, intention oils, herbs, petals, and other handmade items meant to help people harness energy. 5. She explains that magic is 'an energy' and that the tools can help people reach the power they already have inside. 6. Ebony says she makes love-potion-style products from scratch with essential oils, flowers, and plants. 7. She traces her interest back about 25 years to a broken heart and a visit to a witch in Hollywood. 8. Ebony names Pans at Pothicary as the store where a witch mixed a candle spell and told her how to use it. 9. She says she followed those instructions at home and 'was successful,' which pushed her into more reading and learning. 10. Ebony recommends Audible, books, and spending time outside with 'feet on the ground' or under a tree. 11. She says people should study subjects like Inner Witch and spend time in nature because inspiration matters. 12. Ebony describes a love spell with a red candle, a written name, and concentrated 'mental callings' directed at one person. 13. She says the result turned obsessive and became a lesson about 'bending the will of another person.' 14. Ebony argues that there is no real split between white magic and black magic, only the intention of the practitioner. 15. She says Christianity often treats witchcraft as a path to hell, while she sees herbs, crystals, flowers, and plants as spiritual work. 16. Ebony says she believes in a higher energy or being, but not in a human-like figure sitting above or below others. 17. Arda responds from a scientific and epistemological position, saying he needs repetition and demonstration before he is convinced. 18. Matt says the candles feel like a motivating reminder, and Arda compares them to a psychological focus tool and a set goal. 19. The episode will suit listeners who like witchcraft, energy talk, and skeptical back-and-forth. 20. The episode may not suit listeners who want strict science or no spiritual framing.
