Donna Easton Julie Aspinall, Flavia Kate Peters and Barbara MJF

In this session, host Donna Easton is joined by three experts to field questions from our audience about modern witchcraft.

Julie Aspinall has been a eclectic witch for 40 years following her own path; a solitary for many years and over the past eight years, as a Coven Elder of the Coven of Gaia. She was the founder of both the Coven of Gaia and of The Festival For Pagans and Witches. She has had several articles published in magazines and have appeared on both radio and TV discussing witchcraft and paganism. She specialises in the use of herbs in magic and healing the body. Her aim is to normalise witchcraft in this world. 

Barbara Meiklejohn Free is a High Priestess, Elder and best-selling and award-winning author. Barbara has been a devoted practitioner of witchcraft since the tender age of twelve, beginning her journey under the guidance of Swain Macdonald, the Highland Seer. Her deep connection to the mystical arts led her to be initiated into the Wiccan traditions at sixteen, where she embraced the path of a priestess. Barbara’s journey reached new heights when she was initiated as a High Priestess of Isis through Ralph Harvey, a revered figure in the craft. Barbara is particularly proud of her book on Scottish witchcraft, which reflects her heritage and the rich traditions of her ancestors.  

Flavia Kate Peters is a High Priestess, Fairy Witchcraft Expert, and best-selling Author. She has danced with the magic of fairy witchcraft since she was a young girl. She delights in nature and forms a profound connection with the elements. Her early enchantments with the natural world blossomed into a lifelong passion, guiding her as she delved into the mysteries of the mystical realms. An accomplished author of over 20 books, Flavia has shared her wisdom independently and through cherished collaborations with her soul sister, Barbara Meiklejohn Free.
