2026 is a year when the wheel is turning in a big way, and I have the honor of speaking with Gary Lachman shortly after he’s turned the big seventy; his own significant turn. Gary is a writer and musician, he was a major influence in mid-1970s as a founding member of the rock band Blondie Blondie and other bands. In the 1990s, he transitioned to full-time writing, producing influential works on mysticism and occultism. This intro is inspired by wikipedia but the book we speak about today is a much more accurate and detailed "presentation" - as we speak of his book that is a memoir of magic,...

"A mystic directly experiences the flowing waters of inspiration in moments that seem to transcend space and time. Yet these, the coordinates of astrology, can still help us describe such events. Astrologers may seek out patterns that trace our treasured mystics’ meetings with the muses of their ecstasies. If we succeed, their biographies may gain a brilliant new dimension, revealing some of the cosmic architecture through which spirituality flows." Quote from beginning of a chapter by David Leskowitz from the book we focus on today BY THE NAME: "Sideways from Saturn, Astrological Guidance...

"As human beings we have experience and we have story. We tend to shape the experience with story into a form that makes sense, is comfortable for ourselves, and presents us in the best light to others. In the case of psychosis, and other exceptional and anomalous experiences, the experience threatens to overwhelm story. In these circumstances, the obvious recourse is to go to the ‘experts’, perhaps the doctor, who has a ready story based on the medical model. You are ill. We can treat you." (quoted from Isabel Clarke, Conflicted Stories. A case of expanded reality.) But there is another...

Okay so the Left-Hand Path is a spiritual philosophy centered on the preservation of an enduring self rather than spiritual dissolution or obedience to an external authority.

You really have to hear his answer yourself, it will take you on a journey from politics to the inner dream world of truth. You will learn in this episode what he meas by lepht hand philosophy, plus I...

He also served for twelve years as Grand Archdruid of the Ancient Order of Druids in America. I’m delighted to be with him to explore some of the themes from, what at this exact moment is his newest book, "Revisioning the Tree of Life; A New Cabala for Magic, Meditation and Pathworking" – it is hard to keep track when you are such an active gemini mind that John is. Join us as we talk about: -How...

Sometimes, in the world of interviewing, a few cancellations suddenly leave you weeks without a new episode woops! So I figured it was time to take matters into my own hands (voice?) and ease into a SOLO episode during this dry spell. And honestly, I’m in the best company with the artist and pioneer in the humanist approach to astrology, Dane Rudhyar(1895-1985). I start off with a bit of personal chit-chat,,, feel free to skip ahead and then at some point I dive into Dane Rudhyar’s book "Astrology of Transformation, A Multilevel Approach" from 1980. I read bits, reference key passages, and...

Kingsley Dennis, author and researcher, points to an honest truth in our collective mind. We talk a bit about "Healing the Wounded Mind: The Psychosis of the Modern World and the Search for the Self," his book from 2019, but actually our conversation centers on a theme that runs through ALL of his books. There are more than twenty; and he has one published this year too! Kingsley has an academic background but left academia to write and research with more freedom. I love his unpretentious yet truly brilliant energy — and I think you will love him too. Tap in as we speak about: -What the...
info_outlineThis episode is both an interview and a kind of guided meditative reflection, inviting you to sink more deeply into your true nature. I say that because my guest, Georgi Y. Johnson, has a magnetic way of speaking – precise and deeply attuned – and she touches directly into the most sensitive, often unspoken places in our experience. Georgi Y. Johnson is a spiritual psychologists, author of I think 8 books, including (the one I found first) I AM HERE and Nonedual Therapy: The psychology of Awakening
TAP in with us as we speak of such huge deep sensitive topics as:
-
How Nondual Therapy first emerged as a therapeutic approach
-
Unity, contraction in the self, and the sense of “otherness”
-
Innocence - do you identify with it?
-
Touching on political themes, even those are welcome here
-
Awakening and suffering as part of a deeper healing process
-
What it means to be unconditionally alive
-
Depersonalization when the light of consciousness is free – and how this can be healing at a deeper level
-
When you are aware of a pattern but still cannot seem to change it
- The innocent aspect of you is suffering
- ANGER and how to give space it through the lower half of your body
ALSO- Georgi is a wonderul speaker and person to reflect with, so halfway through I try to ask a question but I can't gather my thoughts entirely, but she manages to answer exactly that which I didn't ask. RECOMMENDED listening for sure - in astrology we speak of a virgo stellium with chiron in pisces in opposition to that.
Thank you for being with us - hope you recieved a lot from it
