Strike a match and circle the saltâthis episode is ablaze with the power of Fire in Practical Magic. From Gillianâs wildfire spirit to Sallyâs quiet, smoldering strength, we explore how the element of fire burns through the Owens family legacyâboth literally and metaphorically.
We trace the flames of transformation across Alice Hoffmanâs novels and the 1998 film: from love spells gone too far, to the danger that rises with Jimmy Angelovâs resurrection, to the flickering candles and hearth fires that ground the Owens women in warmth, magic, and memory. This isnât just about spark and smoke. This is fire as lineage, as ritual, as protectionâand as a dangerous force when untended.
We also dive into fire scrying, candle magic, cleansing flames, phoenix mythology, hearth goddesses like Hestia, and the symbolic fire that fuels the heart. Whether it warms or devours, fire in Practical Magic reminds us that passion and power must be held with careâor risk burning everything down.
