14. Personal Sovereignty, Heretical Witchcraft, and Facing the Fire with Peter Grey and Alkistis Dimech of Scarlet Imprint

In this episode of The Heal and Harm Show, I chat with Scarlet Imprint - Peter Grey and Alkistis Dimech! Scarlet Imprint is one of the most innovative, iconoclastic, and important occult/spiritual interventions in publishing. I ask them about their unique blend of offerings (books from a variety of spiritual traditions), how they select the books they spend time on and usher into the world, the unique potential that books have to dissiminate spiritual and magical knowledge, and more.

We also discuss the unique possibilities and potentialities embedded and embodied within magic itself, as well as the interesting debates within the advanced/in-depth witchcraft space itself, that much of witchy social media seems to not be aware of - as well as the politics of witchcraft past and present, including the negative impacts of things such as the woke mind virus, ignorant polarization, balkanization, purity politics, grievance politics, victimhood culture, and mass cancellations both within magical communities and outside of them.

"Most people aren't actually witches - most people are just cosplayers." A crucial and nuanced conversation not to be missed!


On The Heal and Harm Show on YouTube, I dive into deep discussions with spiritual, witchy, occult, wellness, and self-help oriented guests to talk about what happens when we try to heal ourselves and improve our lives. So often in the spiritual space, people seeking healing and community end up in cults, abused, or more messed up than they were at the start of their journey. Named after the phrase, "a witch who can't heal can't harm" (and vice versa), this show explores the light and dark sides of spirituality, magic, witchcraft, healing, and more. The Heal and Harm Show is hosted by Sabrina Scott (https://sabrinamscott.com), a witch, life coach, and professional tarot reader with 5 books and 4 journals out!
