Facing Fear, Road Stories, and Engaging a Magical Reality with Beverly
On this episode I had the pleasure of speaking with Beverly. She’s a magical practitioner, a writer, a mother, a wanderer on the roads that weave their way between this reality and others, a passerby in the way stations that dot the countless realms roamed by the intrepid ones, who walk between worlds - and I’m happy to call her my friend. We wove our web of wyrd into a tapestry of many topics. We talked about death and the process of grieving. Of strange encounters on the road. Of spirits of place and the strange and often otherworldly geography of Turtle Island. Of reality tunnels, belief systems, magic as heightened awareness, and moving through liminal spaces. We talked about fear, and how to act in the face of it. And so much more.www.nightbirdpodcast.comMusic UsedIntro - A Cosmic Jump by Shahead MostafafarOutro - Holy Trail by Platonick Dive
