Metal Magick: Metal Never Lies - An interview with Sam Thompson

A Pinch of Magick

Today on the A Pinch of Magick podcast I'm joined by Sam 'Bo' Thompson as we discuss reconnecting to the magick of metal.
Intellectually, I know that I'm surrounded by metal, but after this conversation with Bo, metal has taken on a whole new meaning and significance.
We had finished the interview and had stopped recording, and we were continuing to chat and I had to start recording again as I had a huge (yet obvious when I thought about it) a-ha moment about metal in my work!
Have a listen and think about metal in a whole new light.

In this episode we discuss:

• Why Bo believes we need to reconnect to metal
• How we're more connected to metal than we realise
• How metal transforms us
• The personalities of the different metals
• How to incorporate metal into everyday life
• Why Bo uses a primitive method of blacksmithing
• His relationship to the Morrigan
• How Bo cultivated his inner trust to follow the guidance of his intuition and messages from the Morrigan
• Bo's philosophy for staying true his own path
• The wisdom of his grandma
• Metal and divination

About Sam 'Bo' Thompson

I’ve been a practicing pagan since the 90's (does that date me or what?), past VP and President of Triad CUUPs (Covenant of Unitarian Universalist Pagans). During the years I have become a Reiki Master Teacher and a certified Great Life Coach.

I learned Primitive Blacksmithing Around 2012 and took to it like a duck to water. I am honored to have been a finalist in Our State Magazine for a forged steel and copper rose.

I teach both Primitive Blacksmithing and Magical Blacksmithing in the Foothills of NC. The focal point of my Work is on the magical part of blacksmithing and I am currently a full-time magical smith.

Being a Priest of the Morrigan heavily influences what I do, and the smithy is dedicated to Her.

I am also a proud Army Veteran.
