Occult Fiction, Druidry & the Spiritual Dimensions of Environmentalism w. John Michael Greer

In S2E6 I sit down for a chat with the incomparable JMG - John Michael Greer. An occult author and practitioner of such quality AND quantity, he's somewhat of a legend in his own time. Truly a magician for all seasons, it was a pleasure to talk with JMG about his work in and enjoyment of occult fiction, his quixotic path to being an Arch-druid, his passion for environmentalism, and much more!

Pre-Socratic Philosophy, The Orphic Descent, & Reconstructing Iamblichean Theurgy w. P.D. Newman

P.D. Newman, an author and occultist, dives deep into the realms of Platonic and pre-Socratic philosophy. He sheds light on the mystical qualities of these ancient thoughts and their poetic dimensions. Newman explores the Orphic katabasis as a path to spiritual knowledge, while also reflecting on his personal journey through Orthodox Christianity. The contrast between Neoplatonism and pre-Socratic beliefs highlights their relevance today, as he discusses the importance of rituals and theurgy in connecting with ancient wisdom and contemporary spirituality.
