Step into a haunting, atmospheric November tale rooted in British folklore, witchcraft history, and the old magic of the land.


 In this original Wild Goddess story, we follow the voice of an ancient elm tree, once used as a gallows, as it remembers Aldith, a wise-woman condemned in the cold dark of winter.

This is a story of injustice, transformation, and the enduring spirit of the women the world tried to silence.
 A tale woven with tree lore, old charms, and the bone-deep wisdom of the season.

If you love dark folklore, witch stories, ancestral remembrance, mythic storytelling, or the quiet magic of winter’s edge, this episode will speak to your soul.

Content Note:
This fictional tale draws inspiration from historical witch trials and includes references to persecution and execution (nothing graphic).

Light a candle, wrap yourself in something warm, and let the old tree tell its truth.
