I am so so excited for the video that has been released today! I made a sneaky little Instagram post about it as well that talks more about some of the concepts I mention in this video, such as intimate versus transactional spirit relationships, the venn diagram I used during the video, and more!
Thank you so much for all your love on my newest video - it means the world to me to be able to share some small pieces of tradition and practice with you and for you to enjoy them so much!
In some news, I have decided that, along with Youtube and Instagram (my long and short form content) I wanted a space for writing.
In that, I have very spontaneously created a blog! Introducting Chaotic Folk Magic, hosted at chaoticwitchaunt.com, with weekly writings on folk witchery, Italian American practice, spirit work, and more. My newsletter through my website receives notifications when these writings are public, along with a 15% off discount code for signing up and access to tips, tricks, and restock notifications.
I previously ONLY wrote blogs on my Patreon, and you still receive access to extra blog posts and EARLY blog posts (some of these are up to 6 months early!), along with ritual and spell walkthroughs, weekly collective readings, Office Hours (a time to hang out!) and more starting at just $6 a month! (patreon.com/chaoticwitchaunt)
You can expect 2025 to be filled with more folk magic and love, but I was excited about this and love a space that I can write more things about my practice, rather than just showing it.
I also feel as though, especially in 2025, sharing rites and rituals that previously I haven't talked about publicly, my tips for certain workings, etc is especially important. It's a way to create community around magic, share information, and more.
What you can expect from CHAOTIC FOLK MAGIC & my newsletter: - Italian American holiday writings, including information on rituals, spirits, and more - Small snippets of product creation and usage (the full information is at my two top tiers on Patreon!) - Writings on folk magic - Musings on folk magic - How-to's for Saint and spirit work, such as petitioning cemetery spirits and working with Archangels - Excerpts from my forthcoming book, ANCESTRAL MAGIC (2025! Preorder here: bookshop.org/p/books/ancestral-magic-a-modern-witc…)
Thanks for supporting me, and I hope that you enjoy this new offering!
P.S. don't forget to subscribe to the newsletter to keep reading & receive a shop discount.
I'll also be bringing you some La Befana Content/Rituals for the Epiphany. (Or maybe teach this as a class.... would you be interested in a workshop centering on this & talking about it through the Italian-American folk magic lens?)
after a long (and much needed break!) I am finally working on getting some videos to you for this week & upcoming weeks! It's taken me a bit to find my inspiration to create again after a long series of events, but I'm happy to say that it's back.
Other things:
- My Small Business Saturday Sale is this week! From Nov 29th - Dec 1st my entire store will be either 20% (house products & veils) or 15% (all outsourced items like decks, zines, folk Mary statuettes, & candles) off! This is our biggest sale, running for a FULL three days, and the perfect time to grab some goodies you've been eyeing. Check out chaoticwitchaunt.com & subscribe to our newsletter for a 15% off code & early information on the sale!
- For this week (Nov 24th - Nov 30th) ONLY, all new paid members of my Patreon will receive 15% off their first month or their first year! Use code "E726E" at checkout to redeem.
Some things you can expect in the coming weeks......
- A little witchy week in my life vlog/folk magic centric vlog (sharing spells, work things, and magic you can do at home) - So you want to.... content! - Some deity work/deity worship content - A revisiting video - Videos on spirit contracts (what are they? what do you mean?)
Make sure to turn your notifs on for Friday's publish, and see you all very soon <3
Please vote for this month's video content for Youtube! I'm hoping to start filming again this week & kick things back into gear - so let me know what you want to see first!
I've been recuperating from Salem {I hope you're enjoying the vlog} and trying to embody the Hermit card quite a bit. Here are some updates, some things, etc etc etc.. Been a minute since I've given y'all an update!
Patreon now allows you to sell individual posts/offer them in your shop, and this is HUGE for creators. A lot of us put so so much energy into Patreon and create so much for our patrons {who I love, dearly} - however we're all very understanding of this being a rough financial time and making a monthly pledge can be a big deal.
You can now gain access to individual blog posts or spell walkthroughs through my Patreon from $6-$15! Some examples of blog posts available include:
These are writings/video on my experience and practice that share tips that I don't like to show/share publicly. Many of the blog posts are research pieces mixed with personal gnosis, and many of them are incredibly rooted in my day to day, showing and sharing lots that you won't find in Youtube videos.
This is HUGE for creators, and huge for y'all! Lots of posts are coming this month that will be available in the shop, including a research piece on Tarantella and ecstatic dance, an ancestral altar setup video, and our September Patreon spell walkthrough {still up for voting!}
You can also visit chaoticwitchaunt.com and check out our newly restocked vintage veils, oils, sprays, and other materia! Our full shop restock was last Friday and there are STILL lots of veils waiting to go to their new homes. {chaoticwitchaunt.com/collections/new-arrivals} - P.S.... signing up for our newsletter or leaving a review gets you a discount code!
Next week is your last week to sign up for Ancestral Magic, my workshop with Seagrape Apothecary! This is a 2 part class, and I highly recommend you take both parts!!!
Other than this, I'll be working on Answering your Questions about Ancestors for next week, and musing on new ideas for you all. If you have an idea of what kind of video you want to see, let me know below!
I have been wanting to do a video where I answer your questions about ancestors, ancestor work, & ancestral veneration for a while now! If you have any particular questions, please pop them on this post and I'll get together a video that will be coming out in the next couple weeks! I also noticed a lot of interest in a tattoo tour, so trust that that is on the way as well!
I have done a little disappearing act again. Part of this is due to the business of July {which should be slowing down after this Saturday..} and partially because it takes me a bit to get back into my filming routine after a large disturbance, like a two week trip. I've been recuperating, sleeping, doing more fun things off-camera, and ultimately taking a lot of time to prioritize the shop and myself.
I'm hoping the rest of July will be less "balls to the wall" and a bit more time to get creative with my videos, focus on preparations for my first market, and working to get back into the swing of things.
As always, if you want to support me further past Youtube, receive some more benefits & help me stabilize my income, you can pledge to my Patreon for the price of a coffee per month {$6} at the lowest tier.
Grazie mille for watching & supporting me however you are able, and I'll be catching up with you soon!
Im so excited to be hosting another giveaway with Bellesa! EVERYONE who signs up to my giveaway will receive either a free toy or a gift card: www.shopbboutique.co/vibe/frankiecastanea-ytc 100% discreet shipping & billing ✨ Ships worldwide 🌎
It's been a bit! I am officially back from my little vacation to the Central Coast of California! I have a full travel vlog coming this Friday with, hopefully, a slightly late Pride highlight for the end of June.
Other ideas are brewing, primarily from previous polls, and hopefully I'll have a bit more time in these weeks leading up to the pole showcase I am in {Wicked Games by Rockstar Pole Fitness} to bulk film before I begin preparing for my departure to Salem, MA as part of the Witchcraft & Folklore Festival! {Come join me: www.salemwitchfest.com/2022-events-registration}
I will be participating in the Mercato della Strega market as well as attending classes, and of course vlogging the whole thing. For some sneak peeks at what products will be making their debut you can join my Patreon at the Ginepro or Lenticchia tiers {www.patreon.com/chaoticwitchaunt}, follow my Instagram, or just keep watching my content!
Wanted to share some of the amazing photos I got on my trip - Central Coast wildlife, plant life, and more are absolutely stunning in the best of ways. I understand why so many people live in California!
