In February 2025, Jacobi opened Diasporic Magic, a physical storefront in a Los Angeles suburb dedicated to Jewish folk traditions and community-building. “Modern Jewish communities for many young Jews feel very devoid of connection,” Jacobi said in a recent interview with New Voices Magazine. And yet they have mostly fallen to the wayside, been thrown in the pile of ‘garbage superstition.’”Reviving these embodied folk traditions was part of Jacobi’s goal in opening her brick and mortar shop, Diasporic Magic. Jacobi envisions it as a space where Jewish magic, spirituality, and diasporic identity can be explored without the pressures of institutional Judaism or nationalist frameworks. Jacobi’s work—for Jewitches and Diasporic Magic alike—is ultimately about offering people a way back to their own traditions without shame, gatekeeping, or the distortions of commercialized, institutional spirituality.
