  Eps. 81: The Folklore of Fireflies

  Aug 3, 202623 minS3

  In this episode of The Moon in Carolina, host Shelby Bundy explores what people across thousands of years and dozens of cultures have believed about fireflies — and finds the same belief arriving, independently, again and again: that small lights moving through the dark are the souls of the dead, keeping close. From the Japanese hotaru poems of the 8th-century Man'yoshu to the Cherokee tradition connecting fireflies to sacred fire and intentional guidance, and into the hollow coves of Appalachia where the Blue Ghost firefly still moves in late May, the soul-light belief spans centuries and cultures.

  Eps. 80: Sacred Animals of the Divine Feminine

  Jul 22, 202626 min

  In this episode of The Moon in Carolina, host Shelby Bundy explores the sacred animals of the divine feminine — the serpent, the bear, and the cow — and what it means that the same three animals kept appearing alongside goddesses across cultures that had no contact with one another. From the Minoan snake goddess of Knossos to Wadjet and Asherah's serpent pillar; to Artemis and the bear-girls of Brauron, Shelby traces how these pairings encoded something true about feminine sacred power. She also follows what happened to each animal under patriarchal expansion, and how all three survived anyway.

  Episode #79

  Eps.79: The Devils Tramping Ground

  Jul 14, 202624 minS3

  In this episode of The Moon in Carolina, host Shelby Bundy explores the American tradition of devil-named places — over a thousand of them — and what it means that humans have always marked the land where the land pushes back. The episode centers on the Devil's Tramping Ground in Chatham County, North Carolina: a forty-foot bare circle in the longleaf pines where objects move overnight, dogs refuse to enter, and soil tests reveal elevated salt content with no natural explanation. From there, Shelby follows three other devil-named thresholds: Devil's Bridge in Ceredigion, Wales; the crossroads tradition running from Hecate to Robert Johnson at the junction of Highways 61 and 49 in Clarksdale, Mississippi; and the Seven Gates of Hell outside York, Pennsylvania. 🖤 You can find Shelby at www.shelbybundy.com 📚 Shop my Booklist: The Moon in Carolina at BookShop.org ✨ Courses: Learn Myth, Astrology, Tarot, Shadow Work, and all things magickal at TenthHouseRising.com .

  Episode #78

  Eps.78: Shapeshifters: Circe, Proteus & the Selkie

  Jul 7, 202622 minS3

  In this episode of The Moon in Carolina, host Shelby Bundy explores three of mythology's great shapeshifters — Circe, Proteus, and the selkie — and the thread they share: the one who changes is the one who sees most clearly. Circe's transformations reveal what was already running beneath the surface of her visitors; Proteus releases the truth only when you hold him through every form he takes; the selkie's two natures are both completely real, and the tragedy is the world's inability to hold them both at once.

  Eps.77: The Night Hag

  Jun 25, 202628 minS3

  In this episode of The Moon in Carolina, host Shelby Bundy explores the night hag — the figure who sits on your chest while you sleep, pins you to the bed, and leaves you certain something was in the room. The experience is one of the most universally reported in human history, and the traditions built around it are remarkably consistent: the Germanic mara , the Newfoundland Old Hag documented by folklorist David Hufford, Queen Mab in Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet , and the Hmong dab tsog — a tradition that became devastatingly relevant when young Hmong refugee men in the United States began dying in their sleep in the late 1970s and 80s. Shelby also traces the figure into contemporary accounts of the Hat Man, and into the folk remedies across every tradition that share the same underlying logic: name the thing, and it loses some of its power. 🖤 You can find Shelby at www.shelbybundy.com ✨ Courses: Learn Myth, Astrology, Tarot, Shadow Work, and all things magickal at TenthHouseRising.com .
