Without a Candle presents: The Raven's Records
A solo series from Karlie of ARW-RIR

Step inside The Raven's Records. A shadowy corner of the Without a Candle podcast where stories, symbols and sacred cycles are unearthed and retold through a Norse pagan lens. Hosted by Karlie, an intuitive rune reader, Reiki Master and spiritual guide, this series is a journey into the ancient. Where mythology meets modern practice, and deep spiritual truths rise from the mist.
Each episode opens a new "record"-exploring the Wheel of the Year, Norse lore, Seidr ancestral wisdom, or the sacred patterns woven through everyday lives. Whether you're walking the Wheel, diving into divination, or just curious about the old ways... this space is for you.
The Raven's Records is all about reclaiming what's been buried and remembering the sacred within.
