Magick & Alchemy Episode 152: Sleep Spells & Dream Divination
In episode 152 of the Magick & Alchemy podcast, hosts Kate Belew and Kristin Lisenby explore the landscapes of their dreams. Beginning in the temples of Aslepius and Asteria, where dream incubation is a ritual to speak with the gods, Kristin and Kate wander through the mysterious realms of lucid dreaming, astral projection, and out-of-body experiences. They consider the possibility of places betwixt and between, searching for spectral haunts including the Mora, Night Hag, and Sleep Paralysis Demon.
