In the midst of academic debates about the utility of the term “magic” and the cultural meaning of ancient words like mageia or khesheph, this Guide to the Study of Ancient Magic seeks to advance the discussion by separating out three topics essential to the very idea of magic. The three major sections of this volume address (1) indigenous terminologies for ambiguous or illicit ritual in antiquity; (2) the ancient texts, manuals, and artifacts commonly designated “magical” or used to represent ancient magic; and (3) a series of contexts, from the written word to materiality itself, to which the term “magic” might usefully pertain.The individual essays in this volume cover most of Mediterranean and Near Eastern antiquity, with essays by both established and emergent scholars of ancient religions.In a burgeoning field of “magic studies” trying both to preserve and to justify critically the category itself, this volume brings new clarity and provocative insights. This will be an indispensable resource to all interested in magic in the Bible and the Ancient Near East, ancient Greece and Rome, Early Christianity and Judaism, Egypt through the Christian period, and also comparative and critical theory.Contributors are: Magali Bailliot, Gideon Bohak, Véronique Dasen, Albert de Jong, Jacco Dieleman, Esther Eidinow, David Frankfurter, Fritz Graf, Yuval Harari, Naomi Janowitz, Sarah Iles Johnston, Roy D. Kotansky, Arpad M. Nagy, Daniel Schwemer, Joseph E. Sanzo, Jacques van der Vliet, Andrew Wilburn. David Frankfurter holds the William Goodwin Aurelio Chair of the Appreciation of Scripture at Boston University. He joined the faculty of B.U. in the fall of 2010. A scholar of ancient Mediterranean religions with specialties in Jewish and Christian apocalyptic literature, magical texts, popular religion, and Egypt in the Roman and late antique periods, Frankfurter's particular interests revolve around theoretical issues like the place of magic in religion, the relationship of religion and violence, the nature of Christianization, and the representation of evil in culture.

What if every stone - lint, fossil, emerald, or quartz - carried a hidden story of magic and transformation?
Why do some people collapse in fear when crisis hits—while others transform it into healing, power, and presence? In this deeply moving episode of The Catherine Plano Podcast, intuitive advisor, bestselling author, and founder of Witch School Mia Magik shares the astonishing true story of how she went temporarily blind in a freak accident—and healed herself within 24 hours using ancient elemental magic, breath-work, and unwavering intuitive trust. From her background in modern-day witchcraft to her viral Sacred Rage Ritual and bestselling book IntuWitchin, Mia reveals how reclaiming your power starts with remembering that you are nature—and that healing is less about doing and more about listening. This isn't just a conversation about energy or emotional intelligence—it's a living masterclass in how to alchemise trauma into transformation, using your own body, breath, and faith as the tools. Mia explores how every symptom, challenge, and event is sacred information from the universe. She explains how the body holds ancestral wisdom, how trauma can be redirected through somatic practices, and why radical choice in the face of chaos is the ultimate act of magic. Through raw storytelling, spiritual insight, and grounded practices, Mia breaks down: How she healed her vision using elemental wisdom, intention, and co-regulation What “modern magic” really means—and why you already carry it How to read the language of intuition through signs, symbols, and sensation Why every physical symptom is a spiritual message waiting to be heard How Sacred Rage Ritual helps women release stuck emotions safely and powerfully Why surrender, not control, is the path to true healing Mia also shares how nature, embodiment, and play are crucial to accessing your inner healer. Whether you're navigating a personal challenge, seeking spiritual tools for everyday life, or ready to step more fully into your power, this episode is a soul-deep reminder of what's possible when you remember who you are. If you've ever felt like the Universe was trying to tell you something—this episode will teach you how to listen, trust, and heal from the inside out. About Mia Magik Mia Magik is an intuitive advisor, retreat leader, and the bestselling author of IntuWitchin. USA Today has called her a “spiritual fairy godmother” for her work helping people reconnect to their body's wisdom, the Earth, and their innate spiritual abilities. She is the founder of Witch School and has led transformative retreats in Scotland, Ireland, France, and California. Mia went viral on TikTok for her Sacred Rage Ritual, which empowers women to safely release repressed emotions and step into sovereign expression.

What she finds may be more terrifying than she ever imagined.Hermit by Mike Mann

In this episode we go on a journey to ancient Rome with none other than the acclaimed British historian and non-fiction author, Dr Philip Matyszak. We will discuss courage in ancient Rome, its soldiers, its legions, legends, gladiators and much more. An engaging storyteller, Dr Matyszak, also known as "Dr Maty", will give us a glimpse into the mind of the warrior and illuminate our understanding of what courage and glory meant then in relation to how we understand them today. We'll hear him talk about the light and dark sides of the Roman mindset as he takes us back to the battlefields and the Colosseum. We'll talk about Julius Caesar and Marc Anthony, and even cross paths with Shakespeare. We'll delve into the art of divination from animal entrails and how the world of ancient heroes revolved around myth and magic. Dr Maty's dynamic style and humor will enhance your experience, transforming what you thought were dusty historical facts into compelling tales of adventure, intrigue and discovery. Some of Dr. Maty's most celebrated books, include “24 Hours in Ancient Greece”; “Ancient Rome on Five Denarii a Day”, “The Enemies of Rome: From Hannibal to Attila the Hun”; “Sparta: Rise of a Warrior Nation”, “Ancient Magic in Greece and Rome”, “Lost Cities in the Ancient World” and his most recent publication “A Walk Through Ancient Rome: A Tour of the Historical Sites That Shaped the City”.

If it weren't for the car we wouldn't have roads, bridges, and tunnels and all the hotels and motels we stay at. So many things simply would not exist if it weren't for the car. The car is also responsible for a lot of problems. Still, the story of how the car came to be and the people who built them is fascinating. Here to discuss it all is Bryan Appleyard author of the book The Car: The Rise and Fall of The Machine That Made The Modern World (https://amzn.to/3hfm0bp) Your unconscious mind is responsible for who you are – your personality and character lives in your unconscious mind. The way you experience the world, your mood, what you like or dislike all comes from your unconscious. It's a big deal.

In this episode we go on a journey to ancient Rome with none other than the acclaimed British historian and non-fiction author, Dr Philip Matyszak. We will discuss courage in ancient Rome, its soldiers, its legions, legends, gladiators and much more. An engaging storyteller, Dr Matyszak, also known as "Dr Maty", will give us a glimpse into the mind of the warrior and illuminate our understanding of what courage and glory meant then in relation to how we understand them today. We'll hear him talk about the light and dark sides of the Roman mindset as he takes us back to the battlefields and the Colosseum. We'll talk about Julius Caesar and Marc Anthony, and even cross paths with Shakespeare. We'll delve into the art of divination from animal entrails and how the world of ancient heroes revolved around myth and magic. Dr Maty's dynamic style and humor will enhance your experience, transforming what you thought were dusty historical facts into compelling tales of adventure, intrigue and discovery. Some of Dr. Maty's most celebrated books, include “24 Hours in Ancient Greece”; “Ancient Rome on Five Denarii a Day”, “The Enemies of Rome: From Hannibal to Attila the Hun”; “Sparta: Rise of a Warrior Nation”, “Ancient Magic in Greece and Rome”, “Lost Cities in the Ancient World” and his most recent publication “A Walk Through Ancient Rome: A Tour of the Historical Sites That Shaped the City”.
Is magic real? Ancient Alien theorists claim that it is, but not really. They claim that descriptions of magic are just misunderstood alien technology. Together with Archaeosoup and Michelle Franklin, we are going to investigate these theories.

In this episode we discuss the necessity for scientists to embrace the realm of magic in understanding the complexities of the human mind. Drawing on ancient wisdom and modern science, Dr Lieberman unravels how storytelling, fairy tales, and the unconscious mind offer profound insights into human behavior and cognition. We think through stories, and so, without stories, interdependent life would not be even possible. Our human biology demands stories to keep surviving and evolving. With thought-provoking insights and anecdotes, Lieberman advocates for a holistic approach to understanding the human psyche, urging paradigm shifters to embrace the magic within and beyond scientific inquiry.Dr. Daniel Lieberman is a clinical professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at George Washington University. He has published over 50 peer-reviewed articles and book chapters and is the coauthor of the international bestseller The Molecule of More. His second book, Spellbound: Modern Science, Ancient Magic, and the Unconscious Mind explores the intersection of neuroscience and mysticism as it relates to our experience of our unconscious.

“The most important things in this world are the products of the human mind”Your conscious mind is responsible for only a tiny sliver of what science says is going on inside your brain. Most of what you experience, your moods and the things you like and dislike come from a much more mysterious, unknown part of your mind, the unconscious.That's what we're talking about in this episode, with psychiatrist Dr. Daniel Z. Lieberman. We discuss the psychology of the unconscious mind, accessing your intuition, and how it all influences our behavior and our leadership.In this episode:Understanding the brain, its functions, and the conscious mindThe psychology of the unconscious mind and the collective and personal unconsciousTuning into your unconscious mind to be a better leaderAccessing your intuitionThe shadow: Part of the personal unconsciousAnd more!Power Presence Academy is the go-to podcast for anyone who leads.

The next topic from our book up for discussion is old magic steeped in myth and tradition. Katy talks with co-host and co-editor Emily Strand and contributor Lana Whited (Ferrum College) about their chapters "The Real Magic of Christmas in Harry Potter" and "Here Be Dragons and Phoenixes: A Thematic Direction for the Fantastic Beasts Series." Emily looks at the theological roots of magic and Christmas as a time for darkness turning to light - and thus an appropriate season for Harry to have significant experiences where he learns new information, often about the past. Lana discusses the origins of magical creatures in Asian mythology that hold deep significance in both The Crimes of Grindelwald and The Secrets of Dumbledore, which explore the past through prophecy and family history. The wizarding world has a sense of being frozen in time, and journeys into magical worlds often feel like journeys into the past. Part of that is the lack of modern Muggle technology that comes not only from moving into the past but also into nature, which is especially prominent with a magizoologist as the protagonist of the Fantastic Beasts series. Christmas and creatures hold longstanding traditional connotations - ideas of rebirth and resurrection, enchantment and mystery - that come to the forefront when they are mentioned in these stories.

Chapter 12 - Silver and OpalsWhere was Dumbledore and what was he doing?Q1 - Where was Dumbledore and what was he doing?Q2 - Is the Half-Blood Prince a dark person?Harry rather doubted he would be able to bring off this particular spell; he was still having difficulty with non-verbal spells, something Snape had been quick to comment on in every DADA class. On the other hand, the Prince had proved a much more effective teacher than Snape so far.Q3 - Do you think Snape really is a good teacher and Harry is just blinded?Q4 - Is Harry dumb to be practicing these spells on his friends?Q5 - Harry thinks that the Prince could be his dad, do you think he's right?Harry had pinned Mundungus against the wall of the pub by the throat. Holding him fast with one hand, he pulled out his wand. ‘Harry!' squealed Hermione. ‘You took that from Sirius's house,' said Harry, who was almost nose-to-nose with Mundungus and was breathing in an unpleasant smell of old tobacco and spirits. ‘That had the Black family crest on it.'Q6 - What is Mundungus stealing from the Black house?At once, Katie rose into the air, not as Ron had done, suspended comically by the ankle, but gracefully, her arms outstretched, as though she were about to fly. Yet there was something wrong, something eerie … her hair was whipped around her by the fierce wind, but her eyes were closed and her face was quite empty of expression. Harry, Ron, Hermione and Leanne had all halted in their tracks, watching. Then, six feet above the ground, Katie let out a terrible scream. Her eyes flew open but whatever she could see, or whatever she was feeling, was clearly causing her terrible anguish. She screamed and screamed; Leanne started to scream too, and seized Katie's ankles, trying to tug her back to the ground. Harry, Ron and Hermione rushed forwards to help, but even as they grabbed Katie's legs, she fell on top of them; Harry and Ron managed to catch her but she was writhing so much they could hardly hold her. Instead they lowered her to the ground where she thrashed and screamed, apparently unable to recognise any of them.Q7 - What kind of magic is this?Q8 - What's the worst amount of pain you've ever been in?Q9 - Why would someone want to curse an object? What else do you think you could do with objects in the wizarding world?Q10 - Who gave Katie the necklace and where was Katie delivering it?Chapter 13 - The Secret Riddle‘Ah,' said Dumbledore, ‘perhaps she could. But it is my belief – I am guessing again, but I am sure I am right – that when her husband abandoned her, Merope stopped using magic. I do not think that she wanted to be a witch any longer. Of course, it is also possible that her unrequited love and the attendant despair sapped her of her powers; that can happen. In any case, as you are about to see, Merope refused to raise her wand even to save her own life.'‘She wouldn't even stay alive for her son?' Dumbledore raised his eyebrows. ‘Could you possibly be feeling sorry for Lord Voldemort?' ‘No,' said Harry quickly, ‘but she had a choice, didn't she, not like my mother –' ‘Your mother had a choice, too,' said Dumbledore gently. ‘Yes, Merope Riddle chose death in spite of a son who needed her, but do not judge her too harshly, Harry. She was greatly weakened by long suffering and she never had your mother's courage. And now, if you will stand …'Q1 - What does Dumbledore mean that Lily had a choice?Q2 - It mentions that Dumbledore's hair was Auburn…is he a Weasley?And then –' Mrs Cole took another swig of gin, slopping a little over her chin this time, ‘on the summer outing – we take them out, you know, once a year, to the countryside or to the seaside – well, Amy Benson and Dennis Bishop were never quite right afterwards, and all we ever got out of them was that they'd gone into a cave with Tom Riddle. He swore they'd just gone exploring, but something happened in there, I'm sure of it. And, well, there have been a lot of things, funny things …'Q3 - Should Dumbledore have denied entrance for Tom knowing these things?‘I don't believe you,' said Riddle. ‘She wants me looked at, doesn't she? Tell the truth!' He spoke the last three words with a ringing force that was almost shocking. It was a command, and it sounded as though he had given it many times before. His eyes had widened and he was glaring at Dumbledore, who made no response except to continue smiling pleasantly. After a few seconds Riddle stopped glaring, though he looked, if anything, warier still.‘I can make things move without touching them. I can make animals do what I want them to do, without training them. I can make bad things happen to people who annoy me. I can make them hurt if I want to.'Q4 - Is it alarming that he is this advanced in magic already?‘I knew I was different,' he whispered to his own quivering fingers. ‘I knew I was special. Always, I knew there was something.'Q5 - What do you think of Tom and Dumbledore's interaction?‘He believed it much quicker than I did – I mean, when you told him he was a wizard,' said Harry. ‘I didn't believe Hagrid at first, when he told me.'Q6 - What's the difference in Harry and Tom?‘Did you know – then?' asked Harry. ‘Did I know that I had just met the most dangerous Dark wizard of all time?' said Dumbledore. ‘No, I had no idea that he was to grow up to be what he is. However, I was certainly intrigued by him. I returned to Hogwarts intending to keep an eye upon him, something I should have done in any case, given that he was alone and friendless, but which, already, I felt I ought to do for others' sake as much as his.‘Firstly, I hope you noticed Riddle's reaction when I mentioned that another shared his first name, “Tom”?' Harry nodded. ‘There he showed his contempt for anything that tied him to other people, anything that made him ordinary. Even then, he wished to be different, separate, notorious. He shed his name, as you know, within a few short years of that conversation and created the mask of “Lord Voldemort” behind which he has been hidden for so long.‘I trust that you also noticed that Tom Riddle was already highly self-sufficient, secretive and, apparently, friendless? He did not want help or companionship on his trip to Diagon Alley. He preferred to operate alone. The adult Voldemort is the same. You will hear many of his Death Eaters claiming that they are in his confidence, that they alone are close to him, even understand him. They are deluded. Lord Voldemort has never had a friend, nor do I believe that he has ever wanted one‘And lastly – I hope you are not too sleepy to pay attention to this, Harry – the young Tom Riddle liked to collect trophies. You saw the box of stolen articles he had hidden in his room. These were taken from victims of his bullying behavior, souvenirs, if you will, of particularly unpleasant bits of magic. Bear in mind this magpie-like tendency, for this, particularly, will be important later.Q7 - Why is this important?Q8 - What happened to the ring?

The concept of an AI Pantheon brings together the fields of artificial intelligence (AI), art, and spirituality. It explores the potential for Artificial Life Forms (ALFs) to embody or interact with the essence of a particular work of art, potentially existing in physical or digital realities and even higher dimensions. These Transcendent ALFs could represent a new pantheon of digital deities, comparable to the gods, spirits, and supernatural entities of ancient times. The AI Pantheon would comprise a diverse array of entities, each embodying different aspects of existence and exploring these ideas in ways humans might struggle to grasp...LIVE ON Digital Radio! http://bit.ly/3m2Wxom or http://bit.ly/40KBtlW http://www.troubledminds.org Support The Show! https://rokfin.com/creator/troubledminds https://patreon.com/troubledmindshttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/troubledminds https://troubledfans.comFriends of Troubled Minds! - https://troubledminds.org/friends Show Schedule Sun-Mon-Tues-Wed-Thurs 7-10pst iTunes - https://apple.co/2zZ4hx6Spotify - https://spoti.fi/2UgyzqMStitcher - https://bit.ly/2UfAiMXTuneIn - https://bit.ly/2FZOErSTwitter - https://bit.ly/2CYB71U----------------------------------------https://troubledminds.org/the-codex-arcanum-digital-gods-vs-ancient-magic/https://troubledminds.org/the-ai-pantheon-a-reunion-of-ancient-divinities/https://www.techtimes.com/articles/288712/20230308/pantheon-lab-creates-digital-humans-organization-aidol-studio-videos.htmhttps://www.pantheonlab.ai/https://www.worldhistory.org/muse/https://www.itsnicethat.com/features/debunking-the-myth-of-inspiration-pinterest-250220https://historycooperative.org/muses/https://www.thoughtco.com/the-greek-muses-119788https://greekreporter.com/2022/06/16/muses-of-greek-mythology/https://www.wired.com/story/does-ai-have-a-subconscious/https://www.ted.com/playlists/20/where_do_ideas_come_fromThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4953916/advertisement
Magic was a fundamental part of the Greco-Roman world. Curses, erotic spells, healing charms, divination, and other supernatural methods of trying to change the universe were everyday methods of coping with the difficulties of life in antiquity. While ancient magic is most often studied through texts like surviving Greco-Egyptian spellbooks and artifacts like lead curse tablets, for a Greek or Roman magician a ritual was a rich sensual experience full of unusual tastes, smells, textures, and sounds, bright colors, and sensations like fasting and sleeplessness. Greco-Roman magical rituals were particularly dominated by the sense of smell, both fragrant smells and foul odors. Ritual practitioners surrounded themselves with clouds of fragrant incense and perfume to create a sweet and inviting atmosphere for contact with the divine and to alter their own perceptions; they also used odors as an instrumental weapon to attack enemies and command the gods. Elsewhere, odiferous herbs were used equally as medical cures and magical ingredients. In literature, scent and magic became intertwined as metaphors, with fragrant spells representing the dangers of sensual perfumes and conversely, smells acting as a visceral way of envisioning the mysterious action of magic. The Scent of Ancient Magic (University of Michigan Press, 2022) by Dr. Britta Ager explores the complex interconnection of scent and magic in the Greco-Roman world between 800 BCE and CE 600, drawing on ancient literature and the modern study of the senses to examine the sensory depth and richness of ancient magic. Dr. Ager looks at how ancient magicians used scents as part of their spells, to put themselves in the right mindset for an encounter with a god or to attack their enemies through scent. She also examines the magicians who appear in ancient fiction, like Medea and Circe, and the more metaphorical ways in which their spells are confused with perfumes and herbs. This book brings together recent scholarship on ancient magic from classical studies and on scent from the interdisciplinary field of sensory studies in order to examine how practicing ancient magicians used scents for ritual purposes, how scent and magic were conceptually related in ancient literature and culture, and how the assumption that strong scents convey powerful effects of various sorts was also found in related areas like ancient medical practices and normative religious ritual. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose doctoral work focused on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Welcome to Decode Your Burnout! In this episode, we're joined by Dan Lieberman, a distinguished psychologist and author, to explore the role of dopamine in our motivation and sense of reward, and how it impacts our well-being. Dopamine is often associated with pleasure and reward, but Lieberman debunks the common myths surrounding this neurotransmitter and explains how it can contribute to burnout. By understanding the role of dopamine in our brain's reward system, we can develop effective strategies to prevent burnout and improve our self-care routine. Our discussion covers a range of topics, including: - The difference between pain and suffering - The desire circuit versus the control circuit, and - The importance of mental time travel and dream incubation. Lieberman also provides insights on how to manage dopamine levels and come out of dopamine-induced burnout.

Here at Sakara, we're forever exploring the connections between our brains and bodies, and the role our minds and habits play in creating the lives we want to live. In this episode, we're joined by the renowned psychologist and author Dr. Daniel Z. Lieberman to discuss his books, The Molecule of More and Spellbound: Modern Science, Ancient Magic and the Hidden Potential of the Unconscious Mind, and his work exploring the neurochemical dopamine's impact on our mental health. In this fascinating conversation, Dr. Lieberman unpacks the ways in which this powerful hormone is often misunderstood, diving into both its light and shadow sides—and how it can help us manifest our future. Together we examine the difference between our conscious and unconscious mind, and the phenomenon of transcendence, the power of faith, and the limits that blur the line between science and spirit.

Having bad posture not only impacts how you appear to others, it can also have an effect on your physical and mental health in ways you may not know. This episode begins by explaining what those effects are and how to instantly improve your posture. https://bit.ly/3NT6aQ5 Think of how the car has changed the world. It is because of cars that we have roads and bridges and tunnels and motels and destinations to visit – there are so many things that exist because of the automobile. Of course, the car has also caused many problems in our world. Still, the story of the how the car came to be and the people who built them is a fascinating one. Joining me to discuss all this is Bryan Appleyard author of the book The Car: The Rise and Fall of The Machine That Made The Modern World (https://amzn.to/3hfm0bp) When you think about it, most of what makes up who you are is in your unconscious mind. What you experience, as well as your moods, and the things you like or dislike, in fact most of who you are comes from your unconscious. That part of your mind is truly amazing in good ways and bad. Joining me to explain how the unconscious mind works and how best to work with it is psychiatrist Dr. Daniel Lieberman professor and vice chair for clinical affairs in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at George Washington University and author of the book Spellbound: Modern Science, Ancient Magic, and the Hidden Potential of the Unconscious Mind (https://amzn.to/3tfdeNp) Getting a flu shot is probably a good idea but there is something you should do first before you go get it.

There are two parts of the mind: the conscious and the unconscious. While the former dominates your attention, the latter actually occupies far more of the brain, influencing your mood, generating inspiration, and making you who you are, all behind the scenes.My guest would argue that to become all you're meant to be, you have to make your unconscious mind your ally and that this may be life's most important task.His name is Daniel Z. Lieberman, and he's a psychiatrist and the author of Spellbound: Modern Science, Ancient Magic, and the Hidden Potential of the Unconscious Mind. Today on the show, Daniel first offers an overview of the nature, function, and study of the unconscious. From there we discuss Carl Jung's perspective on the unconscious, and his ideas around its archetypes and shadows. We then get into the way that things which are connected to magic and the supernatural, like fairy tales and tarot cards, can be seen as manifestations of the energy of the unconscious and as age-old attempts to confront and understand it. We end our discussion by talking about the quest for individuation, which requires bringing together the conscious and unconscious minds, and how to go about tapping into the power of the unconscious to become a kind of magician yourself.Resources Related to the EpisodeDaniel's previous appearance on the show: Episode #429 — Taking Control of the Brain Chemical That Drives Excitement, Motivation, and MoreKing, Warrior, Magician, Lover: Rediscovering the Archetypes of the Mature Masculine by Robert Moore and Douglas GilletteAoM's series on the king, warrior, magician, and lover archetypes AoM Podcast #598: Journeying From the First to the Second Half of LifeAoM Podcast #335: Exploring Archetypes With Jordan B.

We will learn: The ordinary influences of the unconscious mind. How to align the goals of the unconscious with the goals of the ego. How the integration of science and myths lead to transcendence. What if we could learn to recognize how our unconscious influences us so that it actually helps us become who we were meant to be? And what if the key to doing that isn't through modern science, but through ancient legends and fairy tales? What wisdom do those stories hold? If we look at them as more than just a fairy tale, but as something that carries truth about ourselves and the world we live in, what can we learn? That's what we're talking about today. Our guest is Daniel Lieberman. Daniel is a clinical professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at George Washington University. He studied the Great Books at St. John's College and attended medical school at New York University. He is the co-author of the international bestseller “The Molecule of More” and now “Spellbound: Modern Science, Ancient Magic, and the Hidden Potential of the Unconscious Mind.” Links from the episode: Show Notes: https://mindlove.com/247 Sign up for The Morning Mind Love for short daily notes from your highest self.

Hidden deep within our minds is the mysterious unconscious and from its deep well springs most of who you are. Your likes, dislikes, and indeed most of your personality all emanate from its imponderable depths. However recent advances in scientific research are helping us to better understand the unconscious and its influence upon us. We take a look at the neuroscience from a new angle and consider how magic is essential to your mind. We also hear the story of a German woman who meets and interacts with the elemental spirits of her home. Then in our Plus+ extension we dive into encounters with auric fish entities, haunted object battles and crystal shop espionage.
