Podcast appearances and mentions of Anima mundi

Start Your Transformation Now  In part two of this deeply personal series, Jim Fortin continues to explore the mystery and wisdom of Don Xavier, the shaman and spiritual teacher who has profoundly shaped Jim's life and work. After receiving overwhelming feedback from part one, Jim returns with more extraordinary stories—many never shared before—offering listeners a rare glimpse into the spiritual teachings, experiences, and insights he's gained over decades of walking this transformational path. This episode is packed with powerful anecdotes—from ceremonies under the stars in sacred lands to dreamtime revelations that defy logic. Jim dives deeper into what it means to walk the path of awareness, the dangers of over-identifying with the analytical mind, and the spiritual significance behind everyday and extraordinary events. He also shares text messages from Don Xavier that point to the core of what true shamanism is: merging with the “All,” or Anima Mundi. If you're ready to open your heart, quiet your mind, and awaken to a reality beyond 3D logic, this is an episode you won't want to miss. What You'll Discover in This Episode  The misunderstood path of shamanism (00:00) – Jim reintroduces Don Xavier and sets the record straight about who he really is—and isn't.  Belief, skepticism, and “cult” misconceptions (02:50) – Why working with Don Xavier is the opposite of dogma and belief-based systems.  Transformation through experience, not belief (06:13) – Jim shares how growth happens when you let go of needing to “know” and embrace being.  The power of observation over intellect (09:09) – Discover why true awareness begins when you stop thinking and start seeing.  Merging with the All: Anima Mundi (12:06) – Don Xavier's profound message on connecting with nature, energy, and all living beings.  Miracles in the mundane (15:01) – From disappearing winds to perfect recoveries, Jim recalls unexplainable events during sacred ceremonies.  Freeing yourself from the analytical mind (17:57) – How trying to figure everything out actually weighs you down and limits your evolution.  Dreams, animals, and messages from beyond (20:51) – Stories that challenge logic but expand your perception of reality and karma.  The future of humanity and the threat of AI (24:11) – Don Xavier's sobering warning about how technology may again lead to humanity's collapse.  A call to awaken (36:12) – Jim's closing message on the illusion of certainty and the importance of living with curiosity, awareness, and heart. Listen, apply, and enjoy!    Transformational Takeaway  There's more to life than meets the eye—and it's not what you think. The more we try to figure everything out, the more we distance ourselves from true wisdom. Growth begins when we quiet the analytical mind and return to the stillness of observation, connection, and trust in the unknown. As Don Xavier teaches, your mind is not your brain—real transformation starts when you stop thinking and start seeing.

We explore a fresh perspective on non-native and introduced species. Traditionally viewed as pests or threats to ecosystems, some of these species offer hidden benefits that are often overlooked in conventional pest management frameworks. We dive into the complexities of integrated pest management (IPM), discussing the importance of balancing ecological restoration with justice, health, and livelihoods. This episode was adapted from a talk originally given to an audience focused on integrated pest management. It encourages listeners to rethink the language we use around non-native species, while offering insights into their potential contributions to ecosystems, medicinal practices, and more. Key Topics Discussed: The impact-focused traditional approach of integrated pest management (IPM) The often-overlooked benefits of non-native species Political ecology and how power relations influence our views on species The relationship between ecological restoration and cultural responsiveness Medicinal uses of “weeds” and their place in autonomous healing practices How rethinking our language around invasive species can shift our environmental practices Further Reading and Resources: For those interested in diving deeper into the topics covered in this episode, here are some recommended readings and resources: "Just Language" Project Learn more about how changing the language we use around species management can transform our ecological and cultural approaches.

Today, it appears that a more modern form of spiritualism is now depending upon the progress of science. Those that lack the faith are now seeking signs form science and even with revelations about aliens and extraterrestrial techno and bio signatures – others are fundamentally rejecting these findings and calling them the “great deception.” Tonight on Ground Zero, Clyde Lewis talks with Joe Murgia about ANIMA MUNDI.Originally Broadcast On 12/3/20 

For over a decade, Olivia Hertzog struggled deeply with a disordered relationship with food and health, feeling enslaved by her health "problems." Despite her relentless efforts to improve, nothing changed. It wasn't until Olivia reached a point of desperation and sought help that she understood the root cause: her identity was in conflict with her desires. She had believed she was broken and in need of fixing, which kept her stuck. By examining her subconscious stories, challenging her preconceived ideas about health, and shifting her beliefs about who she was and what she deserved, Olivia began to experience true healing. She realized she was never broken, and this change in identity and beliefs finally allowed her to find freedom and wholeness. We talk... -not pedestalizing one health expert -what intuitive eating really looks like -raising a child with health eating and avoiding disordered eating -what "I am health" means -food combining -how to listen to your intuition -why people have such a hard time with their diets Resources: Olivia's Instagram Olivia's website (courses, community + more) Get 15% off Anima Mundi herbal products with code: HEALING15 Follow the host Claudia, here

We often romanticize the beginnings of love, the butterflies, the excitement of the unknown. But you can't have those beautiful beginnings without experiencing endings. If there's anything I've learned this past year, it's that sometimes the endings are the greatest blessings. Sometimes, if you don't have the courage to leave a relationship, the universe will step in and do it for you.   Our society is going through a major love epidemic right now—something I've witnessed firsthand over the past year of being single, navigating dates, heartbreaks, false hopes, and those huge WTF moments. As a certified lover girl at heart, I can tell you it ain't easy in 2024!   Last year, fresh out of my divorce, I had the incredible Rainier Wylde on the podcast. We talked about romance and the deep need for it in our society. Fast forward a year, and Rainier has a new book coming out about the other side of falling in love—leaving love. And let me tell you, it's just as crucial.   In this heart-opening episode with Rainier, we dive into some profound questions: How to transform your heartbreak into your biggest heart opening Why grief and joy are so closely intertwined What red flags in relationships really mean How to allow yourself to be present in your emotions Why it's crucial to start a relationship with honesty How compatibility is built within relationships What grief is and how to cherish a dark night of the soul moment    This episode is filled with poetic moments, gripping stories, and all the soul-soothing encouragement you need to embrace the obstacles the universe throws your way. Because on the other side of grief, heartache, and pain is a version of you that's hopeful, bright, and unstoppable.    Catch the past episode of the Highest Self Podcast featuring Rainer Wylde Here   Connect with Rainier Wylde on Instagram Here   Learn More about Rainer Wylde's book Here   Sign up this week and get 25% off with this code: 25SWS at checkout!

The 'World Soul' or Anima Mundi (in Latin) is the connection between all living things, and like the soul is connected to the human body, it relates to the world as a life force, interacting with each other like neurons in the human brain; it is all one essence, just doing many many things at the same time, interlacing and interconnecting, working together. This can be said for GAIA and her sub-functions in Horizon Zero Dawn, but on a more physical and robotic scale. And for Final Fantasy VII it has the same concept, but more within the spiritual realm, especially in the final moments of the game. Copyright to Two Takes

Entering Hekate's Cave: The Journey Through Darkness To Wholeness by Cyndi Brannen, PhD, can be purchased wherever books are sold. This is a guided class and meditation that introduces the listener to Soul Retrieval. Join my soul school, The Covina Institute, for the in-depth eight week journey that takes place between the first and third new moons of the calendar year. If you missed this course, consider joining for The Rebirth Journey that runs from the third to fifth new moons. Learn more at keepingherkeys.com Psychopomp, which translates from Greek as “Soul Guide,” is one of Hekate's most ancient roles. Certainly, she guided Persephone through rebirth out of the cave, yet we can envision Hekate helping her call back the missing soul shards that shattered during her great trauma at the hands of those powerful men who brought about the end of her innocence. As Persephone learned to sing her soul once more, so do we. Our chorus becomes a beacon to the missing pieces of the soul in this lesson as we experience Soul Retrieval. The Soul Guide is much more than the one who helps the earthly dead cross over the river to the other side, she is the midwife who assists new souls as they are born into flesh, and she reunites us with the fragments we lose along the way. Hekate calls us to take care of our own souls, and to see the soul in all things. Caring for our own souls and seeking to understand the soul in all things, draws us closer to Anima Mundi. It is to Hekate as Psychopomp, and to our own ability as the guide of our own souls, that we turn to in this lesson as we experience soul retrieval. A shamanic practice as well as a psychological one, soul retrieval is the process of calling back pieces of our soul that were lost due to trauma. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/keepingherkeys/message

She founded the Sachamama Center for Biocultural Regeneration in the Peruvian High Amazon in 2009 where she works with indigenous communities as well as several High Schools in the province, regenerating the most sustainable and climate reducing pre-Columbian anthropogenic soil known as Terra Preta do Indio (black earth of the Indians). Her more recent books are: Subversive Spiritualities: How Rituals Enact the World (2011); Sacred Soil: Biochar and the Regeneration of the Earth with Robert Tindall and David Shearer, (2017); Contemporary Voices from Anima Mundi edited with Stefano Varese, (2020).

Imaginal cells are responsible for the metamorphosis of the caterpillar into a butterfly, which is the Greek symbol for the soul. These cells are dormant in the caterpillar but at a critical point of development they create the new form and structure which becomes the butterfly. scientificandmedical.net galileocommission.orgbeyondthebrain.org Works and links mentioned:https://asociacionsachamama.org/https://sophia.smith.edu/anthro/Marglin.htmlBooks by Frédérique Apffel-Marglin https://uk.bookshop.org/search?keywords=Fr%C3%A9d%C3%A9rique+Apffel-MarglinThe Death of Nature Carolyn Merchant https://www.amazon.co.uk/Death-Nature-Ecology-Scientific-Revolution/dp/0062505955https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/cosmogenesis-an-unveiling-of-the-expanding-universe-brian-thomas-swimme/7534509?ean=9781640096172 Production: Martin RedfernArtwork: Amber HaasMusic: Life is a River, by Magnus Moone

The Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst Carl Jung studied astrology for over 40 years, and was primarily interested in the way astrology could help to explore the psyche. For Jung, astrology represents the sum of all the psychological knowledge of antiquity. The notion of seeing mythic narratives through patterns in the heavens is one of the earliest attempts to link the outer world with the inner world. The well-known Hermetic dictum, “As above, so below,” is key to astrology. It is the idea that man (the microcosm), is influenced by the universe (the macrocosm). That is to say, truths about the nature of the cosmos may be inferred from truths about human nature, and vice versa. At the exact moment of birth, each person receives the typical qualities of the libido or energy which is characteristic of him or her. Time, or the moment understood as a peculiar form of energy, seems to coincide with our psychological condition. For Jung, this leads to a peculiar hypothesis, that our personality does not have to do with the position of the stars, but rather with the qualitative effect of time, also called synchronicity, based on the ancient Stoic concept of cosmic sympathy. ☕ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Donate a coffee⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⭐ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⌛ Timestamps (0:00) Introduction (3:54) The Zodiac: Wheel of Life (5:06) The Basics of Astrology (9:37) Microcosm and Macrocosm (10:44) Astrology becomes Astronomy (11:48) Astrology and Carl Jung (17:12) Astrology as Ancient Psychology (20:02) Astrological Age and Precession of the Equinoxes (23:12) Qualitative Time (27:02) Astrology and Synchronicity (28:23) Sympatheia: Cosmic Sympathy (29:00) Psychoid and Unus Mundus, Pleroma, Anima Mundi (30:00) Planets as Archons (Gnosticism) (30:50) Spirit of the Depths and Spirit of the Times (32:28) Jung's Thoughts on Astrology Before Death (33:15) Fate and Free Will (36:13) Individuation and Daimon (Soul-Image) (38:20) Exoteric and Esoteric Astrology (39:25) Aquarius: The Coming New Aeon (43:31) Conclusion

In this podcast Eckhart talks about the soul of the world which in Latin translates to Anima Mundi. He says when we awaken to the transcendent dimension within ourselves, we are then able to discover the soul of the world as our own soul. Eckhart says that's the essence of all spirituality and is the primary reason we are here. Eckhart then answers questions on a variety of subjects: a woman asks what the functional purpose is of becoming more aware. Eckhart explains there are many benefits to awakening - the most obvious is that our lives get easier and more enjoyable. Another audience member asks about the states of consciousness generated during dancing, drumming and meditation… she's deeply aware of the inner world, but not the outer. She wants to know if that is the same transcendent dimension Eckhart discusses so frequently. He says we must keep a foot in both worlds because the art of living requires this balance.Want more podcasts from OWN?

Is every object alive? Are wind, oceans, and mountains sentient? Jung, inspired by Anima Mundi or world soul, believed so. This concept, rooted in ancient philosophy, originates with Thales of Miletus, who envisioned the universe as interconnected and alive. Plato furthered this, proposing the World Soul as a bridge between ideal and physical realms. Born into a religious family in 1875, Jung strived for a fusion of science, psychology, and esotericism. He lamented that excessive intellect had stripped humanity of meaning. Although ancient beliefs might not resonate with modern minds, he felt that dreams could reawaken our world and called this spirit Anima Mundi. Jung moved the gods from external to internal realms, calling them archetypes. He associated the disconnection from these myths with societal ailments. “The gods have become diseases,” he stated, suggesting that disregarded psychic content still governs us, appearing as neuroses. The quest for soul in matter inspired alchemists. Jung proposed that merging ego with the imaginal spirit or anima/us yields a new personality type, the alchemic Lapis. Ian McGilchrist defines this as “unity of the hemispheres.” Reenchanting the world involves seeing ourselves within a responsive life web and resisting the view of nature as an object. This reawakening symbolically reflects our actions, revealing our interconnectedness. Understanding that our actions ‘sing into' objects reinstates feelings. It is indifference, not evil, that fills our relationship with nature. This indifference permits destructive actions. The world soul isn't a belief, but an inner response, always communicating with us. It provides a mirror to our actions, enriching our lives with feelings that urge us to pause and reflect.  HERE'S THE DREAM WE ANALYZE:  “My husband was offered work by his older brother and agreed against my judgment and advice. They had a contract to refurbish the tour bus of an esteemed opera singer. She was glamorous and bohemian but haughty. The bus was dilapidated and strangely decorated. There was a sense that much debauchery had happened there. It even smelled of sex. The job finished without issue, and my husband was told by his brother to call later regarding payment. When my husband called, somebody told him that his brother was not home and he was working late, an obvious lie as both finished work early. I was frustrated at my husband, but he remained hopeful that his brother would pay up.”  BECOME A DREAM INTERPRETER: We've created DREAM SCHOOL to teach others how to work with their dreams.

The World Transits, where the planets are at any given moment in time, represent the Soul of the World, the Anima Mundi. Jessica shares her visionary understanding of how humanity can collectively wake up to and co-create with the world transits in their everyday lives. The human species shares psyche, and every single individual is uniquely experiencing and expressing the archetypal energies seen in the world transits. We as humans share much more than we have realized up until this point in history.

One of the biggest questions I hear is “Where all the conscious men at?!” I've definitely asked the same! So in today's conversation, I bring Sacred Sons co-founder Aubert to discuss why they may not be as far away as you think.. And how we can truly be in alignment for meeting them through doing our own inner work.    We discuss the healed vs shadow masculine, deciding what our deal breakers are, and why healing our trauma is the most important factor in having deep relationships.    We then discuss being in the death portal and why leaning into it is essential for truly liberating ourselves from attachment– why is the key to embodying our dharmas. He opens up and gets vulnerable about the suicide of his sister and I also share takeaways from my divorce process.   This is a profound and tear-filled conversation that I know will hit a deeper cord within you.. It certainly did for me.   Connect with Aubert on Instagram here Learn more about Sacred Sons here   Use my code SAHARA15 for a special discount on all Anima Mundi products at https://animamundiherbals.com   If you are looking for a diverse + nourishing community of like-minded souls I'd love to invite you to join the waitlist of Rose Gold Goddesses at https://www.rosegoldgoddesses.com    To receive a free gift, email a screenshot of your review of the Highest Self Podcast to sahara@iamsahararose.com    Intro + Outro Music: Silent Ganges by Maneesh de Moor   Follow me your spiritual bestie to active your fullest expression + laugh along the way: https://www.Instagram.com/iamsahararose  https://www.tiktok.com/@iamsahararose  https://www.Facebook.com/iamsahararose    Discover Your Dharma Archetype with my free quiz https://www.dharmaarchetypequiz.com/   Download my Goddess Embodiment Practice: https://iamsahararose.com/embodiment   Order My Books: https://www.iamsahararose.com/books    By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that the entire contents are the property of Sahara Rose, or used by Sahara Rose with permission, and are protected under U.S. and international copyright and trademark laws.

This is talk and meditation that introduces the listener to Soul Retrieval, as described in Entering Hekate's Cave: The Journey Through Darkness To Wholeness from Red Wheel Weiser. Psychopomp, which translates from Greek as “Soul Guide,” is one of Hekate's most ancient roles. Certainly, she guided Persephone through rebirth out of the cave, yet we can envision Hekate helping her call back the missing soul shards that shattered during her great trauma at the hands of those powerful men who brought about the end of her innocence. As Persephone learned to sing her soul once more, so do we. Our chorus becomes a beacon to the missing pieces of the soul in this lesson as we experience Soul Retrieval. The Soul Guide is much more than the one who helps the earthly dead cross over the river to the other side, she is the midwife who assists new souls as they are born into flesh, and she reunites us with the fragments we lose along the way. Hekate calls us to take care of our own souls, and to see the soul in all things. Caring for our own souls and seeking to understand the soul in all things, draws us closer to Anima Mundi. It is to Hekate as Psychopomp, and to our own ability as the guide of our own souls, that we turn to in this lesson as we experience soul retrieval. A shamanic practice as well as a psychological one, soul retrieval is the process of calling back pieces of our soul that were lost due to trauma. Listen with transcript and CC HERE.

It was so great having Nate back on the podcast, who was wildly popular in his last episode. In this episode, we dive into a topic a lot of us unknowingly have - Adrenal Fatigue.    We discuss what adrenal fatigue is and the stages that we go through as symptoms increase. We discuss the connection between cortisol and insulin and the foods to eat more of and avoid.    We also go into the psychosomatic causes of adrenal fatigue: hustle + urgency culture, burnout + perfectionism.    We then go into how adrenal fatigue may be a sign that we are disconnected from our dharma, soul's purpose, and true soul expression.    We both share our personal stories with this– you're in for a good one! This episode is truly beyond a masterclass, with tons of wisdom + science here, infused with real life experience. I'm glad that we get to provide this information for free here on the podcast so it can support the lives of many and help bridge healing to the communities that need it most.

Our generation has become obsessed with shadow work and living in an endless journey of healing. While shadow work can be a profound journey, when do we know we are healed enough? In this episode, I go deep into what shadow work is, why our generation is attached to it, and how shadow work can be used as an excuse to avoid living our dharma. I talk about how we can be the highest service to the collective, and the joy that comes from releasing yourself from the perpetual journey of constant healing. The world needs more empowered people spreading joy and less people overly focused on constant inner work, when they may be healed enough. I hope this episode gives you the permission to move forward as the joyful, bright sun-being you are!

I think we're all struggling right now. The world seems to be tilting sideways, from extremist politics that seek to strip our rights to the economic woes. And yet, there is the light in the darkness. In this episode, I talk about how Hekate can help us navigate these tough times by leaning into her darkness and light. Seeing her as a spirit that guides us through catharsis, from our personal unburdening to the global letting go of dysfunctional systems and toxic positivity, can be deeply healing. Get a candle: there's a ritual and meditation/chant at the end, based on this from the Keeping Her Keys book: Hail Hekate, Anima Mundi. Hail Hekate, Anima Mundi. Hail Hekate, Anima Mundi. She who is the very soul of the world, Within me lives the same spark, That fuels all of creation, And birthed the universe. Hail Hekate, Anima Mundi. Hail Hekate, Anima Mundi. Hail Hekate, Anima Mundi. Join The Covina Institute for the Keeping Her Keys Read Along, and the Hekate's Keys Program of courses.
