In episode 151 of the Magick & Alchemy podcast, hosts Kate Belew and Kristin Lisenby set their sites on the great beyond with a conversation about extraterrestrials, star people, and mythic accounts of maybe aliens. They consider the stories of Billy Meier, a man from rural Switzerland who documented over 100 visits from a group of telepathic, human-passing beings from the Pleiades star cluster (also known as the Seven Sisters). They discuss indigenous relationships to the stars, as well as different approaches to considering alien existence, including the Fermi Paradox, the Great Filter Theory, the Dark Forest hypothesis, and the Rare Earth hypothesis.
