Meet the Founders
Christopher Evagora
My practising path started from a very young age, where I was taught protection magic by my Greek Grandmother (my Yiayia), bringing in elements of Christian Greek Orthodox and Folk Magic traditions, I’ve always had an interest in the esoteric.
Growing up in the UK, I’ve been open to other practices, and incorporate them into my own unique chaotic and eclectic mix, bringing in both my Ancient Greek and Egyptian heritage. Around the age of 16, I started looking into what faith was, what I believed, and what I wanted to explore. I started off buying two books on Enochian magic and, whilst that didn’t ‘stick’, it gave me an appetite for more.
Fast forward a years, and after becoming jaded with the corporate world, I sold my diagnostic histology laboratory in 2020, and decided of all things I could do, I’d open a witchy shop in the middle of Huntingdon. I’d like to say there was a lot of thought behind that, but I’d be lying!
Since opening the physical shop (we started off online from my living room, then a warehouse sort of by accident – long story!, before moving to our current location on All Saints Passage), both my practice and I have grown and deepened, with thanks to the community, the people who help out in the shop and with workshops, and I really appreciate what we’re building.

As an artist, I’ve always been fascinated by the ways in which emotion, energy, and storytelling intersect. My work often explores themes of empowerment, self-discovery, and authenticity, which is why I started this magazine—to create a space where others can explore their unique paths without judgment.
With a background in digital art that seamlessly melds photographs, textures, and brushwork, I have always sought to connect deeply with others through creativity. My passion for pagan practices, spiritual exploration, and the unconventional paths of life has shaped both my artwork and my writing. Through The Alternative Magazine, I aim to bring together a community that values openness, curiosity, and growth.
My goal is to offer a positive, inclusive approach to topics that mainstream media often overlooks, encouraging our readers to explore their own personal truths. Whether it’s diving into the roots of ancient beliefs, understanding alternative spiritualities, or exploring ways to find harmony and growth in daily life, we are here to shine a light on paths that empower individuality and curiosity.
