On this month's episode of Magic and Medicines, Eleanor is guiding us through the history of Alchemy, from turning base metals into gold to the truth behind the Philosopher's Stone to much more besides!We start off talking about how several traditions we might recognise as 'Alchemy' grew up in isolation in the ancient world, including in Ancient China, Ancient Greece, and across the Middle East.From the supposed works of Hermes Trismigestus via Zosimus of Panopolis (who may actually be a hippopotamus in disguise) and other influential forefathers of Alchemy, including Mary The Copt - whose inventions are still being used today - we dig into the core principles of Alchemy: using Materialist magic to reshape reality.Through the Renaissance, via John Dee, Cornelius Agrippa, and absolutely not Nicolas Flamel, it is not until the Enlightenment that the entire tradition hits the skids. But why? And how did 'Chemistry' split off from 'Alchemy,' forcing its forebear into obscurity? Then, what about those people who still advocated for Alchemy through the 20th century and into the modern day? Could they possibly be believing in scientific processes that are only now being proved possibly principally correct?It's a fascinating topic, and one of the 'Big Ones' in the story of magic, so let's reorder some elemental nodes together, bring the humours into alliance, and see if we can't maybe all get filthy stinking rich with the knowledge theoretically gifted to us by our ancestors' angel husbands...Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more.

In this episode, Fred Lawrence speaks with Professor Martin Kern, a leading scholar in Chinese antiquity and a professor at Princeton University. Kern shares his unique academic journey, from growing up in post-war Germany to studying in Beijing during a period of political transformation. He discusses the complexities of interpreting ancient Chinese texts, the challenges of nationalism in historical scholarship, and his passion for comparative antiquity. The conversation also explores the richness of classical Chinese poetry, the evolution of historical narratives, and exactly how he ended up studying ancient Chinese manuscripts in the first place.

China has a long history of innovation, giving the world some of its most groundbreaking inventions. From the compass that guided explorers to the printing press that spread knowledge, these discoveries shaped global civilization. In this episode, we’ll explore the famous Four Great Inventions—papermaking, printing, the compass, and gunpowder—along with lesser-known but equally fascinating creations like silk, porcelain, and early seismographs. Join us as we dive into the ingenuity of ancient China and uncover how these inventions continue to influence modern life.
It's citrus season in the northern hemisphere, and fruit trees are bursting with oranges and lemons. But CrowdScience listener Jonathan wants to know what happened to the tangerines he ate as a child in the 1960s? He remembers a fruit that was juicy, sweet and full of pips, found each Christmas at the bottom of his stocking. Tangerines today, he thinks, just don't compare. Crowdscience tries to track down this elusive fruit. Presenter Anand Jagatia traces the tangerine's origins back to Ancient China, as botanist David Mabberley explains that the name ‘tangerine' comes from a fruit that made its way from Asia, to Africa and the Moroccan port of Tangier, before arriving in the US in the early 1800s. Professor Tracy Kahn from UC Riverside tells us about the hybridisation process that goes into breeding modern tangerines, but says that while the season for these fruits has been dramatically extended, there's a cost in terms of diversity and flavour. Who better to help us track down this missing mandarin than a fruit detective? Well, that's one of pomologist David Karp's other job titles, and he reveals exactly which cultivar we might be looking for: the Dancy. So where can we find one? Over on Friend's Ranches in Ojai, California, Emily Ayala shows us two trees planted by her late grandfather, and explains that nothing grown since really matches its unique flavour.So what will listener Jonathan think when we send him a box?

Howdy folks, We are back with one of our favorite guests, Leo Zagami once again to discuss his latest book: CONFESSIONS OF AN ILLUMINATI VOLUME 11 Confessions of an Illuminati Volume 11: The Past, Present, and Future of Mind Control from Sun Tzu to MK-ULTRA and Beyond Leo Zagami is writer and has written over a dozen books, including the best-seller Pope Francis: The Last Pope? released in the U.S. by CCC Publishing. Zagami, who is known for a brilliant career as Leo Young in the media and music industry as a Record Producer, became quickly popular on the web in 2006, because of his direct involvement in the New World Order and Secret Societies known to the majority of us as the “Illuminati.” His blog rose quickly and gained attention from people such as David Icke, for it's accurate fully documented ground breaking inside information. Zagami has collaborated in the past with a series of articles and scoops for Infowars, and was the protagonist of a highly successful documentary made by Alex Jones in Rome, called “Demonic Possession Of The Vatican Exposed.” Leo also was the one to reveal to the world on Infowars the Gay Vatican Drug/Orgy in the summer of 2017, that forced the mainstream media to later cover the story. After publishing many books in Italy and Japan with great success, he reached the English speaking public thanks to a book deal made with San Francisco's CCC Publishing, that made Leo's translated works available in the English language. For the first time, Leo Zagami reveals the true story of brainwashing, psychological operations, and mind control connected to the Illuminati and the New World Order. From Sun Tzu in Ancient China to MK-ULTRA and PSYOP Soldiers in modern America, the elites have always known how to control millions of people not only with the use of conventional weapons but also with the power of the mind. Learn about the psychology of initiation and how the Illuminati and Freemasons control their own, the occult roots of mind control, secret experiments, the complete history of brainwashing, and the making of a Manchurian Candidate after Donald J. Trump's attempted assassination revealed that the elite are Manufacturing Killers Utilizing Lethal Tradecraft Requiring Assassination as they did with Lee Harvey Oswald. In the end, the evil elite will use Artificial Intelligence and Nanotechnology to achieve their highest goal, to hijack your thoughts and have full control of every aspect of your life. However, we still have a chance to keep the inner sanctum of our brains free, and with this book, you will learn how.

Episode 533 In this groundbreaking work, Leo Zagami presents a comprehensive analysis of the historical and contemporary practices surrounding brainwashing, psychological operations, and mind control, intricately linked to the machinations of the Illuminati and the New World Order. By tracing a lineage from Sun Tzu's strategic insights in Ancient China to the clandestine MK-ULTRA program and the operations of psychological warfare (PSYOP) units within modern America, Zagami posits that elites have long understood how to manipulate and control vast populations, employing not only conventional weaponry but also sophisticated psychological tactics. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/michaeldecon/support
Brian Godawa returns to the show to delve into the fascinating world of apologetics, mythopoetic symbolism, and the clash of gods as depicted in the Bible. Watch our previous conversation "The Spiritual World of Ancient China and the Bible," https://youtu.be/cWgcfil49nk In this insightful episode of Apologetics, Mythopoetic Symbolism, and the Clash of gods , we explore how ancient narratives intertwine with modern storytelling to uncover profound spiritual truths. Brian sheds light on the symbolic significance of chaos, Leviathan, and other mythic elements in Scripture, revealing how these ancient symbols carry deep theological meaning and continue to resonate in the context of spiritual warfare and the Christian worldview today. We also discuss the ways in which these symbols were used polemically in biblical times to contrast the God of Israel with the pagan gods of surrounding cultures. Don't miss this compelling discussion that bridges the ancient and modern worlds, offering a rich understanding of how biblical symbolism still speaks to us today.

In this episode, we embarked on a comprehensive journey through the various historical phases of China, examining how each period shaped not only the nation itself but also how the world has perceived China over the centuries. From the ancient beginnings to the modern-day superpower, China's history is a rich tapestry woven with cultural, political, and social threads that have left a lasting impact on the global stage.We began with Ancient China, a time when the foundations of Chinese civilization were laid. We discussed the emergence of key philosophies like Confucianism and Daoism, the early dynasties that centralized power, and the remarkable inventions such as papermaking, gunpowder, and the compass. During this period, China was often viewed by the rest of the world as a land of great wisdom and mystery, a cradle of knowledge that would influence neighboring regions and beyond.Moving forward, we explored the era of Imperial China, where powerful dynasties like the Han, Tang, Song, and Ming ruled vast territories. We delved into the significance of the Silk Road in establishing China as a central hub of trade, diplomacy, and cultural exchange. This period solidified China's image as a formidable empire with a highly sophisticated society, deeply influencing the cultures of Korea, Japan, Southeast Asia, and even reaching Europe.Our discussion then transitioned to the Republic of China, a period marked by significant change and modernization. Established after the fall of the Qing Dynasty, this era was characterized by political instability, civil war, and the struggle to modernize while holding onto traditional values. The world viewed China with a mix of curiosity and concern during this time, as it grappled with internal conflicts and the pressures of external influences from Western powers and Japan.We then delved into the era of the People's Republic of China, focusing on the dramatic transformations that took place under Communist rule. From the Cultural Revolution to the economic reforms of the late 20th century, China's global image shifted from that of an isolated, agrarian society to an emerging industrial and technological giant. We discussed how this period redefined China's role in the world, transitioning from a state of relative obscurity to a major player on the global stage.In conclusion, our exploration of China's history highlighted the enduring complexity and influence of this ancient civilization. Each period, from the ancient to the modern, has contributed to a unique global perception of China, shaping the way the world views this vast and enigmatic nation today. China's journey from a mysterious ancient empire to a contemporary superpower continues to fascinate and challenge the global community, making its study as relevant as ever.
Discover the spiritual connections between ancient China and biblical narratives. Explore Deuteronomy 32 worldview, territorial powers, and the sons of God. Check out another insightful video on our channel: https://youtu.be/GI0ia-V3srY Join us as Brian Godawa delves into the Deuteronomy 32 worldview, the concept of territorial powers and principalities over nations. Discover how the nations of the world have spiritual powers governing them, known as the sons of God, and how these beings are referred to as gods in the Bible but are not on the same level as the one true God. The conversation also touches on the influence of the Tower of Babel on the development of different cultures and mythologies, including Chinese dragon imagery. Godawa's novel "Qin" and its companion book explore these concepts in the context of the first emperor of China and his connection to the ancient world. Brian Godawa discusses the divine council, the role of pagan gods and demons in ancient religions, and the contrasting depictions of dragons in Eastern and Western cultures. He explains how the biblical worldview differs from other ancient religions and sheds light on the fallen angels and the Nephilim through the book of 1 Enoch. As a screenwriter, Godawa brings a concise and action-packed approach to his novels, embedding biblical themes without being preachy. He shares his favorite scripture from Ecclesiastes and discusses his latest book project on the Maccabees.

The widespread use of paper and printing were features of ancient China which distinguished it from other ancient cultures. Traditionally, paper was invented in the early 2nd century CE, but there is evidence it was much earlier. As a cheaper and more convenient material than bamboo, wood, or silk, paper helped spread literature and literacy but it was used for many other purposes from hats to packaging. The material was made finer over the centuries, was traded across Asia and was used in the first paper money from the early 12th century CE.

We start to explore the relationship between the heavens and the Earth in Ancient China, along with the role of astronomers. One of the most important concepts in Chinese political thought to emerge from this was the Mandate of Heaven. Finally, we look at the oldest record of Chinese astronomy, the story of the astronomers Xi and Ho.

Does your business make you sit a lot during the day? And, does it often make you stressed?In this episode of the Business Ownership Podcast I interviewed Dr. Keith Brewer. He is a doctor of Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine. He been meditating since he was 6, after numerous medical specialists told him he would be paralyzed by the time he was 13 because of his numerous spinal anomalies. He tapped into a series of moving meditations that he practiced every night, and these allowed him to defy the prognoses of modern medicine. He later discovered that these healing meditations have been practiced in Ancient China for thousands of years. He discovered many benefits for health through his journey, and his goal is to help everyone live a more healthy life. One of those benefits is reducing high blood pressure - which many people have today.Learn how to reduce your stress & blood pressure. Check this out!

Hua Mulan (c. 400-600 AD) was the hero of an iconic Chinese tale that remains a symbol of courage, familial duty, and national pride. This month, we're talking about Folk Heroes. People whose lives and stories took on mythic proportions. History classes can get a bad rap, and sometimes for good reason. When we were students, we couldn't help wondering... where were all the ladies at? Why were so many incredible stories missing from the typical curriculum? Enter, Womanica. On this Wonder Media Network podcast we explore the lives of inspiring women in history you may not know about, but definitely should. Every weekday, listeners explore the trials, tragedies, and triumphs of groundbreaking women throughout history who have dramatically shaped the world around us. In each 5 minute episode, we'll dive into the story behind one woman listeners may or may not know–but definitely should. These diverse women from across space and time are grouped into easily accessible and engaging monthly themes like Educators, Villains, Indigenous Storytellers, Activists, and many more. Womanica is hosted by WMN co-founder and award-winning journalist Jenny Kaplan. The bite-sized episodes pack painstakingly researched content into fun, entertaining, and addictive daily adventures.

Dr. Li Min is a professor of prehistoric and Bronze Age Chinese archaeology at UCLA, who focuses on state formation, social memory, and story telling. He is also a key player in the excavation of Shimao, a site on the Yellow River in Northwest China that displays iconography from four thousand years ago that looks strikingly Mesoamerican. We discuss the context in which Shimao rose to become a major regional power, the heady interaction sphere between the city and the shamanic Steppe and Altai cultures that surrounded it, the persistence of imagery unchanged across thousands of years, and much more.

Welcome back to ParaPower Mapping. The Boston Brahmin Watch Bus is on the road again today—it's a surprise double header. Support the show & access the Premium Feed by subscribing: patreon.com/ParaPowerMapping ! We first unpack the mythic & historical antecedents of Bryan Johnson's alchemical vampirism & elite pursuit of the Elixir of Life, including an examination of the Rosicrucian Royal Society & Robert Boyle's involvement in the very first blood transfusions, the Epic of Gilgamesh, & examples from Ancient China, Hindu scriptures, etc.; from there, we discuss Richard & Isabella Ingalese, a husband-wife duo of New Thought gurus (as well as a corporate mining lawyer & psychic) who authored numerous Kybalion-esque self-help texts and then relocated to Southern California to attempt the Great Work, eventually attesting in an interview w/ the Occult Review that they'd succeeded in attaining the Red & White Stones of the Philosophers, also claiming that they personally knew alchemists living in SoCal that were 600, 400, & 200 years old; the Ingalese's pyramid scheme "Renewal Club"—which may have been a coven of alchemical vampires—that mirrors AMORC & future New Age-y California cults; we continue exploring Stavish's history of American alchemy, which serves as an introduction to AMORC & AMORC's non-accredited Rose + Croix University; we discuss founder H. Spencer Lewis's publicity stunt where he performed the "transmutation" of zinc into gold in front of an audience of AMORC grandmasters & newspaper journalists, which supposedly gave him 2nd & 3rd degree burns on his hands; we mention the California magus Frater Albertus, an AMORC lab alchemy graduate who would go on to proselytize the "life-enriching" aspects of alchemy, briefly playing a clip of a presentation he gave at UC Davis on alchemy at the exact same time that Timothy Leary was signing autographs in another hall on campus; from there, we transition to working our way through the first few chapters in Richard Spence's Secret Agent 666, investigating the evidence of Crowley's espionage work, his early recruitment through the Primrose League & a "gunners" cadet corps in Worcestershire, spying interpretations of his varied & globetrotting travels in the late 1890s & early 1900s, his involvement in securing oil in Mexico & initiation into a Mexican Scottish Rite Masonic order, the possibility that Crowley met Rasputin (and may have been in Russia at the same time as Gurdjieff), the likelihood that sexpionage & sexual blackmailing may have made up a significant part of Crowley's toolkit, the strong possibility that Crowley was assigned to infiltrate both the Golden Dawn & OTO to surveil enemy elements of the Crown & British Empire establishment in both orders, the fact that German agent Theodore Reuss was likely trying to turn Crowley by recruiting him into the OTO, the numerous intelligence officers that were members in Crowley's own order Astrum Argenteum, and finally, the cover & motives of Crowley's arrival in NYC aboard the Lusitania at the onset of World War I (a British armament or finance business deal, surveillance of German occultists, and the tracking of Irish republican Sir Roger Casement).

The left thinks we need more leisure time and is using some spurious history to make their case. We go from Medieval Europe to Ancient China to see comparisons with workers today.

CCP Blog - Episode 1 3 Superpowers Of All Red Stones We bleed red. Blood is warmth. It is animation. It is emotion. It is what makes us alive. And red represents all of those qualities and more. That is why there is power in red, and the ancients were aware of it. In this episode of Crystal Clarity Podcast, Sarah Thomas shares with us the three superpowers of red stones. And yes, they are true superpowers. Think about cinnabar, red tourmaline, carnelian, ruby, and hematite. Ancient peoples – even those who painted red ochre in caves – recognized their value and used them for a variety of sacred purposes. Tune in to this episode and get to know your red stones more intimately, so you can use them whenever you or someone else needs them. This episode is going to be helpful and important for you if you are about to go into something that is going to take some focus, presence, energy, and reserves and if you are going into a marathon type of moment or something where you are going to want to apply yourself. If you are going into something where you are like, “I want to feel steady, calm and grounded for this. I want to be able to feel present for this. I want to feel like I have the resources to get through this,” there is a group of stones that are perfect for these moments. It is the red stones. If you love red stones and you have red stones like red carnelian, ruby, sphalerite, tourmaline, and jasper, there are three superpowers that all red stones have. Knowing and naming those three superpowers of red stones are going to help you befriend and utilize them more. You will be able to give them to somebody when they are in these moments in their life. It allows you to allow them to do the work they are here to do. I can hear all the red stones peeking up around me. This is cool. This episode is about us. Enjoy this time to learn the three incredible superpowers of all red stones. --- This episode is about red stones. It is about the three superpowers that all red stones have in common. When I say superpowers, I mean really superpowers. These are super powerful stones. We are going to talk about all of these different red stones. I want to make sure that you know exactly the three superpowers, that anytime that you pick one of these up to heal, awaken or do ritual, all the things that we do with our stones, you will know what you are bringing to the table. You feel refreshed and clear about that. This is such an incredible group of stones. I want to start by saying that we bleed red. That is fascinating that we bleed red. We bleed this beautiful dark red color. It is my favorite color. I love red, orange, yellow, and pink. I love all the combinations of red. We could bleed blue, light blue, green, or yellow. It is what pumps through our veins and makes us alive. Blood is warmth. It is animation, in motion and emotion. It is what makes us alive. We bleed red. If you think of a dead body, it is cold and stiff. There is no warmth or movement. Blood is all about that animation, movement, and aliveness. Blood has everything to do with our emotional landscape. The blood carries and holds the spirit. If you have ever been in the room with someone who has passed away, you feel the spirit move out of the body. That spirit was housed by the blood inside the body. That aliveness, warmth, and feeling of being alive and feeling alive in a spiritual sense too. I feel alive now. I want to get up, get out of bed, and have my day. I feel alive. I feel that juiciness. That is the blood, and it is dark red. It is aliveness. Think of menstrual blood as well. The color red is often associated with women, whereas white would be more associated with biological men because white is the semen and red is the menstrual blood. Think of the menstrual blood and what it represents. It represents life. This person is able to make life. They are in a cycle of their life where they can make life. Think of soldiers. They always wear dark red. They will wear garnet, garnet belts, sheaths, and headbands. They will find red stones and iron hematite. They will wear those into battle because it is like saying, “You can't kill me. I'm alive. I'm going to have victory. I'm going to be the one that is standing here alive at the end of it.” In many different ways, blood means what is alive? It is dark red. Blood is also connected to our ancestry. It is the blood that we pass down. It is our blood relatives and the animation of the spirit that passes down through ancestry lands in our blood. It is amazing that it is dark red. It could be any other color. Color therapy is all about how color affects biological systems and anything that's alive but it is not that it affects our physical form. It affects our multi-dimensionality, spiritual body, emotional body, physical body, and the millions of multi-dimensional subtle nuances that we encompass. We feel the color red around us. We pick that up. We get affected by that biological system. When we say, “Red does something,” it is not a metaphor. It is not like we want to say that red does something because it looks like this. No, our bodies are picking up the color red. In Ancient China, when we look at the five-element theory, the color red means many things. It comes off the face and body. We see it in certain ways and it means things. It is phenomenologically tied to who we are. Color therapy is not just a metaphor. It is something that deeply affects us on all layers. Color is important, and it is highly correlated to emotions. I want to talk about the three superpowers of red stones. We are talking about cinnabar. Cinnabar even had red in the name. We are talking about garnet and hematite. It talks about ancestry in the name of hematite. Hematite created red ochre. The first cave paintings are made out of hematite streaks scratched on the wall. It makes red ochre paint pigments. It is important in this conversation. I'm not talking about pink. I'm talking about your red stones, red tigers eye, real red cornelian, real red jasper, and red tourmaline. Keep that in mind, like a darker red rubellite or the red inside watermelon tourmaline. There are many other red stones that you might be thinking about. Let's move into what they all have in common and these superpowers. Number one is that red stones are going to bring energy/vitality to that living system. Red builds strength in the body and physical systems. It builds physical power. It strengthens you up. Think of your adrenals and vitality like your power to move through the day. That is what red stones are going to affect. Think of your lower dan tian, which is the lower part of your belly, your pelvis underneath your belly button. That is where the fire is generated. The small of your back, which we call Mingmen, is where the fire in your body is cultivated. That fire rate is what creates metabolism, energy, and movement in our lives and the ability to move, be mobile and have energy. I used to go to a workout place for many years that was called the fire because fire is all about that metabolism that we light inside of us. Energy, libido, physical metabolism, fuel, moving, and feeling strong. The fire is red. It is all about this red color. It is going to go into the body and build strength and physical power in living systems. I keep saying the physical level. It is the physical level. All color affects all levels of who we are. There are a lot of levels of who we are. This one is particularly tuned in to hone you up in your physical system, which is important. I can't even name how many moments in people's lives they are going to need physical energy. Number two is grounding to the Earth. We could call this earthing, but this color and all of these stones ground us and connect us to the Earth below us. They have a resonance that keeps our feet on the ground. They keep our pelvis connected to the Earth. Red is connected to the root chakra. When you look at the visible light spectrum, red is moving the slowest, longest wavelength. That slow long wavelength is the last color we see before color disappears into too low and slow. That low and slow is connected more through relative resonance to the material body. The plane is slowing us down and bringing us to Earth as matters. It is moving fast in higher planes, and it slows down to materialize. Coming into materiality and the physical body is being grounded. All of these red stones are grounding. It is great to put them on the pelvis and the low belly. On the lower back, they are incredible. You can also put a red light over the red stone. All of this is going to make us feel like we are sinking into the Earth. What's important about this is that one of the big places where we get all energy, spiritual energy, life energy, emotional energy, and all energy is from the Earth. The Earth is something that feeds us. We get to the last place in our own energy body. Maybe we had a trauma, we went through something big, or we gave birth to a baby. When we get low, the place to source from is the Earth. Earthing is a way to get all of this energy up into your body. I want to make a little side note for empaths. I'm sure everybody reading this is an empath. One of the things that empaths do is because the information is too much for them often or can be overwhelming because they are picking up much information from the environment. Sometimes, to stop that overwhelm, they will block that information from the environment. One place we can block that information from is our butt, pelvis, and legs, that root chakra. We can hold things out as a way to protect ourselves. There is an unconscious crossing of wires. Empaths sometimes will be protecting themselves a lot of times in the lower body. They are not open enough to receive the energy of the Earth coming in. What is going to protect them is the energy of the Earth. It is like that grandmother energy that can come up and be like, “I will protect your energy and sort through this for you to make sure you feel safe and you can relax in your body. Number two is red stones will ground you to the Earth. They will allow you to open up that root shocker so you can let that Earth energy in. There are many other ways we can talk about why and when it is important to be grounded in the Earth. A lot of them are about shock, disassociation, feeling split from the body, or something that happened when we went up into space. Red stones will help ground that person back down, especially red stones with iron in them. Iron is heavy. It has such an incredible resonance with the Earth of dropping down to the heavy Earth to being able to materialize. A lot of red stones have iron in them. If you have dark red sphalerite with iron in it, that is perfectly resonant with what we are talking about. Garnet and hematite have a lot of iron in them. If you also get that iron in the chemical composition, it is perfect for grounding people to the Earth. Besides number 1) Energy vitality and number 2) Grounding and earthing, the third superpower of all red stones is phenomenal. It is going to bring us back to how we started, talking a little bit about the blood. The red color goes to the heart. The heart picks that up. They are in resonance. They come together. When anything is in resonance together, they start to exchange information. The heart has always been the color red. That is Ancient Daoist, knowing the heart is color red. We could talk about the heart as the green in the chakra system, but I'm going to leave that out for now. Let's tune into how the heart is red. When somebody has a constitutional heart factor or something is up with their physical heart or emotional heart, like they are in sadness, despair, or anxiety, their face and different parts of their body will get red. We can see little blood vessels popping out. I spent all this time studying this correlation between red and the heart, and many people have for centuries. We get to relax into the phenomenon of red associated with the heart. The heart pumps blood throughout the body. It is the master and controller of the blood moving out throughout the whole body, getting all the way out to the hands, feet, and head. The heart is pumping that blood and keeping us alive. It is holding that aliveness for us. We talked about how the spirit is housed in the blood and that feeling of animation and being alive is housed in the blood. Our spirit and aliveness are being pumped around the body by our hearts. What is amazing about the blood and the heart is that all of your emotions are in your blood. All of your emotions are carried by the blood. Blood is animation in motion and it is emotion. It is that movement of emotions. If there is anything that emotions love, it is to move. Emotions are free. They want to be free and feel. They want us to be present with them. They want to keep moving. When emotions stop or get blocked up, we have repressed or suppressed emotions. It is the blood that is able to move those emotions. The more suppressed and repressed emotions we have, the less we are able to be present in our lives. We want to have fewer repressed and suppressed emotions. Repressed emotions are things we don't even know that we have. If somebody said to somebody, “Do you fear death?” They were like, “No, I know I'm going to heaven.” They might have repressed fear of death. They don't even know that they have it. A suppressed emotion is something that somebody knows they have, but they are not managing it. It is like the elephant in the room. They were like, “I know this is there, but I would just look away.” We will dive into that a little bit more in the future. You might notice that you have some suppressed emotions. I know that fear of running out of money is there, but I will leave that elephant over there. A repressed emotion would be one that you don't even know that you have. Keeping those emotions moving is all about the heart. When we can keep our blood moving, that is aliveness and presence in life. I'm going to bring something up that you may already know, but trauma freezes the blood and stops the blood from moving. Moving trauma so we can integrate and be present in the present moment. Moving the emotions so that we can have a full experience of life and experience emotions as they move through. Being present with the mess they move through and keeping those moving has a giant impact on who we are and how we live our lives. That red color keeps that blood and emotions moving. When we can't manage our emotions, or there are too many elephants in the room or suppressed emotions, that is where numbing ourselves through addiction comes in. Red stones are going to keep the blood moving, keep us present and keep us saying, “I know I have this elephant in the room of this anxiety, but I know working out helps me. I'm going to work out. It keeps that moving going.” All movements of emotion are good for matters of the heart. Emotions that are hard to deal with around matters of the heart are anxiety, sadness, and despair. Red Stones will help with anxiety, sadness, and despair, being able to be present with those emotions and helping them move through heartbreak. The other side of that is that red stones can promote joy, aliveness, and feeling present. They also can promote feeling calm in our hearts. That is the opposite of how we feel when we are anxious. We don't feel calm in our hearts. We call that grounding or calming the Shen. It means heart spirit. We calm the heart with red stones. Calming the heart is the opposite of the whole spectrum from anxiety to mood swings, to bipolar, to mania, everything that feels like it is an out-of-control fire emotionally. Those things are connected to the heart. They are red color and red stones because they feel like an out-of-control fire. Red stones can also calm that fire to this beautiful candlelight that feels beautiful and manageable. It creates intimacy like you are sitting around a candle with someone. Those are superpowers. Number 1) Energy/vitality. Number 2) Grounding earthing. Number 3) Movement of emotions. Think of times in your life when you are like, “I would love to have all three of those as I go into this.” Imagine if a loved one was diagnosed with something hard. You would say, “I need physical energy/vitality and strength of the spirit in all parts of my body. I need to stay grounded in my body and present. I need my emotions to be moving and flowing.” That brings that presence. If you are training for a marathon, you need these things, “I'm going into a phase with my work where I have to work hard for three months.” Think of other times that you would need these three superpowers, “I'm pregnant. I'm going to go through this long process of being present. I need these resources and birthing the baby at the end of it.” Not even a loved one was diagnosed, but you had a health challenge that you were going to go through. These red stones are able to make us be like, “I'm present. I can focus on what is ahead. I have the resources to make it through.” Red stones are the fine wine of all stones. Thank you, cinnabar, red tourmalines, red zircon, hematite, all of you iron stones, garnet, and all of the other red stones, sphalerite. Red stones were the most important stones in Ancient China. They were seen as the most powerful. They were also seen as the most rare. Moving into red stones was like moving into the fine wine of all stones. As I used a metaphor with another dark red color of fine wine, I'm going to leave that episode right there at that part. Be sure to get out your red stones when you or someone else needs them. I will see you in the next episode.
In this podcast episode, we introduce you to a pivotal moment in the story of humans and canines, the training of guide dogs for the blind and visually impaired. Historical data suggests that throughout the millennia, dogs have been in service to humans. From a town square in Ancient China to the perilous battlefields of World War I, dogs have sacrificed their own needs and desires to care for, save, and guide us. Trainers spend months working diligently with guide dogs and their human partners in complex training exercises to prepare them for the tasks. It just may be that dogs are the only animal on earth that provide unconditional obedience paired with unconditional love. Bonafide Bits: There are 2,100 guide dog teams across North America and 22,000 teams worldwide. A 13th-century Chinese scroll depicts a dog guiding a visually impaired person. Several breeds of dogs were trained to assist WW1 soldiers who were rendered sightless by poison gas. In 1927, Dorothy Harrison Eustis wrote The Seeing Eye, a Saturday Evening Post magazine article that introduced America to the concept of training dogs to guide the blind and visually impaired. In 1926, Minnesota Senator Thomas D. Schall introduced a bill that allowed guide dogs to accompany their humans on public transit and in restaurants, an early precursor to the public access rights given to guide dogs under the Americans With Disabilites act Featured Breeds: Golden Retriever The Golden Retriever, an exuberant Scottish gundog of great beauty, stands among America's most popular dog breeds. They are serious workers at hunting and fieldwork, as guides for the blind, and in search-and-rescue, enjoy obedience and other competitive events, and have an endearing love of life when not at work. Discover more about Golden Retrievers at AKC's Golden Retriever Breed Biography. Labrador Retriever The sweet-faced, lovable Labrador Retriever is America's most popular dog breed. Labs are friendly, outgoing, and high-spirited companions who have more than enough affection to go around for a family looking for a medium-to-large dog. Labs are famously friendly. They are companionable housemates who bond with the whole family, and they socialize well with neighbor dogs and humans alike. But don't mistake his easy-going personality for low energy: The Lab is an enthusiastic athlete that requires lots of exercise like swimming and marathon games of fetch, to keep physically and mentally fit. Discover more about Labrador Retrievers at AKC's Labrador Retriever Breed Biography. German Shepherd Dog There are many reasons why German Shepherd Dogs stand in the front rank of canine royalty, but experts say their defining attribute is character: loyalty, courage, confidence, the ability to learn commands for many tasks, and the willingness to put their life on the line in defense of loved ones. German Shepherd Dogs will be gentle family pets and steadfast guardians, but, the breed standard says, there's a “certain aloofness that does not lend itself to immediate and indiscriminate friendships.” Discover more about German Shepherd Dogs at AKC's German Shepherd Dog Breed Biography. Poodle Forget those old stereotypes of Poodles as sissy dogs. Poodles are eager, athletic, and wickedly smart “real dogs” of remarkable versatility. The Standard, with his greater size and strength, is the best all-around athlete of the family, but all Poodles can be trained with great success. Discover more about Poodles at AKC's Poodle (Standard) Breed Biography. Boxer Loyalty, affection, intelligence, work ethic, and good looks: Boxers are the whole doggy package. Bright and alert, sometimes silly, but always courageous, the Boxer has been among America's most popular dog breeds for a very long time. Discover more about Boxers at AKC's Boxer Breed Biography.

This incomparably fearless and vigilant breed stands proudly among the world's finest protection dogs. Discover more about Doberman Pinschers at AKC's Doberman Pinscher Breed Biography. Collie The majestic Collie, thanks to a hundred years as a pop-culture star, is among the world's most recognizable and beloved dog breeds. The full-coated “rough” Collie is the more familiar variety, but there is also a sleek “smooth” Collie. Discover more about Collies at AKC's Collie Breed Biography. Pointer The noble Pointer is the ultimate expression of canine power and grace. Unquestioned aristocrats of the sporting world, Pointers carry themselves proudly and are capable of great speed and agility. The coat comes in several colors, solid or in patterns but as the breed's devotees like to say, a good Pointer can't be a bad color. A large male can stand 28 inches at the shoulder and weigh up to 75 pounds; a small female might weigh as little as 45 pounds and stand 23 inches. Discover more about Pointers at AKC's Pointer Breed Biography. Airedale Terrier His size, strength, and unflagging spirit have earned the Airedale Terrier the nickname “The King of Terriers.” The Airedale stands among the world's most versatile dog breeds and has distinguished himself as a hunter, athlete, and companion. Discover more about Airedale Terriers at AKC's Airedale Terrier Breed Biography. Giant Schnauzer The Giant Schnauzer is a larger and more powerful version of the Standard Schnauzer, and he should, as the breed standard says, be a “bold and valiant figure of a dog.” Great intelligence and loyalty make him a stellar worker and companion. Discover more about Giant Schnauzers at AKC's Giant Schnauzer Breed Biography. Newfoundland The massive Newfoundland is a strikingly large, powerful working dog of heavy bone and dignified bearing. The sweet-tempered Newfie is a famously good companion and has earned a reputation as a patient and watchful “nanny dog” for kids. Discover more about Newfoundlands at AKC's Newfoundland Breed Biography. Puli No other breed can be mistaken for the Puli, a compact but powerful herder covered from head to tail with profuse, naturally occurring cords. Bred to work closely with humans, these agile and faithful little dynamos are quick learners. First, there are those dreadlocks, the instantly recognizable feature of the Puli (pronounced "Poo-lee", "Pulik" is the plural). The coat's naturally occurring cords are wooly, dense, and weatherproof. Either corded or brushed out, Puli coats require lots of attention. Under the dreads there's a compact but powerful dog, standing 16 to 17 inches at the shoulder. Pulik are remarkably agile and light on their feet, earning a reputation as the “acrobat of the dog world.” Discover more about Pulick at AKC's Puli Breed Biography. For more information about a specific breed visit the breed's parent club or AKC.org. Shareables: In 1843, Charles Dickens wrote of guide dogs in his classic “A Christmas Carol.” A freak cigar-lighting accident led Senator Thomas D. Schall to introduce a bill that is the basis of guide dog accessibility laws in place today. When her guide dog Emma began having vision problems, newly sighted Sheila Hocken switched roles to guide the Labrador Retriever during the final months of her dog's life.
