Aidan Wachter is an eclectic animist, magician, and witch. His work focuses on magical approaches that produce real change in the practitioner and their reality. Wachter believes that magic is an inherent aspect of the human animal that, when missing or neglected, can lead to pathological states in the individual. These states then ripple out into human society and beyond it.
It is his belief that magic can be a tool to re-frame what is possible for a person and, from that position, create better possible futures for all beings. He is the author of Six Ways: Approaches & Entries For Practical Magic, Weaving Fate: Hypersigils, Changing The Past, & Telling True Lies, and Changeling: A Book Of Qualities.

Somehow stumbling into a third season knowing less than when they started, Hine and Buckley welcome a guest that has been top of the Vasye-most-wanted-list since the podcast's inception - witch, dirt sorcerer, magician, animist and author, Aidan Wachter. Aidan skilfully and eloquently answers questions on some big topics: are some people naturally more able to connect to magic than others? How do you tune into the more subtle communications when working with spirits? What separates Aidan's practice, beliefs and faith from those of a conventionally religious practice? How can a solitary magical practice serve the wider community? ...and whatever happened to the Black Squid Cult? (Recorded 22 August 2024)
