Galahad and the Grail is the first volume in Malcolm Guite's four-part epic poem, Merlin's Isle: An Arthuriad, which retells the Arthurian legends with a focus on the Grail quest, featuring Sir Galahad, Sir Bors, and Sir Percival. The book is a modern epic poem best read aloud. This book aims to be both a literary work and a spiritual journey.

Join me on todays episode for a discussion with of my all time favourite YouTubers/Podcasters Sinead Hanna to talk all about the genre of horror. Sinead talks all about the origins of her love for the macabre, the psychology of horror and why and when it is common for many of us to seek comfort in it. We talk about early horror interests - think Point Horror books, Ghost Watch and Hammer House of Horror. Sinead also shares some of her favourite horror reads and movies overall but also for Summerween. I have picked up a ton of inspiration on books and movies to watch through Sineads work, she really knows her onions for this genre! https://www.youtube.com/@SineadHannaCraic instagram.com/sineadhannacraic You can also find Sinead over on The Poisoners Cabinet podcast . https://www.thepoisonerscabinet.com/ As mentioned here is a link to The Woman in Black if you fancy watching it - The film starts at around 7 minutes in - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tf1LSoMoeMc Our book review today is my zine The Book of Tides - The Book of Tides is a seasonal grimoire that explores the Summer Solstice through a look at the element of water. We begin with the history and traditions of Litha but the heart of this book is devoted to the mysteries of sacred waters.  Inside you will find the origins, folklore, correspondences and magickal themes of Litha. Tarot/oracle abd journal prompts for Litha, Solar Magick, making Sun Water and how to use it in your craft, a Sun invocation ritual, a delve into the element of water, its magickal correspondences, symbolism and working with its energy in your craft, Waters of the Otherworld - sacred wells, enchanted springs, Celtic lore, Arthurian legend, sea spirits, the River Styx, Achilles and ancient beliefs surrounding magickal waters. We also look at Waters of the Witch including the folklore and magickal uses of black water, brackish water, dew, fog, hail, fountain/well water, war water, ice, rain water, river/lake, sea, marsh and waterfall water. Also how it was used by witches, healers and cunning folk traditionally. Learn how to make Witch's Holy Water, explore moon water and guidance on the magickal properties and uses of water from the full, waxing, waning, dark and new moon phases. We also look at mermaids, selkies and witchcraft connected to them. We look at Midsummers Eve and its ancient connection to dream and intuitive magick, the witchs grimoire and some kitchen witchery. Alongside the zine you can order The Book of Tides witch box that includes hand dressed anointed spell candles - The Love Witch blend incorporating rose oil, rose petals, chamomile and lavender for use in self love, confidence, manifestation rituals and spell work.

We begin by exploring the history and spirit of tarot, looking at the different ways the cards can be used and how to build a meaningful relationship with your deck.  We explore the foundations of tarot including the four suits, the four elements, numbers, court cards and the rich symbolism that runs through the deck. Journey through the tarot temple where the card that most wishes to work with you reveals itself. Through a guided meditation you will meet the energy, message or wisdom that is waiting for you within the cards.  In our final week we explore tarot as a tool for self-reflection and transformation. Together we will look at archetypes, shadow cards, repeating cards and the ways tarot can guide us towards deeper self-understanding and future possibilities.  You can access all of this through the sorceress tier for £8 a month and can be cancelled at any time.   https://patreon.com/TheHedgeandHollow?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink Join us through The Witches who run with the Wolves tier for a Litha gathering on Thursday 18th June via zoom from 7pm UK time.

In this episode, we answer a litter's questions who wrote while in "DEEP" labor asking about the lesser-known Pratt brothers and an audio submission from Filer, Idaho about the legend that Joseph of Arimathea brought the teenage Jesus to Cornwall. Gerrit traces the idea to William of Malmesbury's 12th-century history of Glastonbury and its tangle of Arthurian folklore.   We close with part three of our King Follett sermon series, where Gerrit warns against apologists who lean on the Thomas Bullock account's apparent mistranscription to claim Joseph taught God was God from all eternity, arguing that you can't play historian with one discrepant source against five consistent ones, and that watering down what Joseph actually taught to appease traditional Christian critics is selling your birthright for a mess of pottage that won't even fill you up.   If you are interested in joining us in 2027 in Palmyra and Kirtland, August 1st through August 7th, click on the link below and reserve your spot: https://pci.jotform.com/form/261567888174171   Sign up for our free monthly email: ⁠ ⁠⁠https://standardoftruthpodcast.substack.com⁠⁠   If you have any questions or possible topics of discussion for upcoming podcasts, please email us at: ⁠⁠questions@standardoftruthpodcast.com

We went to see Masters of the Universe, the latest toy-turned-into-a-movie, and honestly had a good time, better than we expected. We briefly compare it to the 1987 film (see episode 79), as well as Flash Gordon, Arthurian romance, and more. Starring Nicholas Galitzine, Jared Leto, Camila Mendes, Idris Elba, and Alison Brie. Directed by Travis Knight.

"Rest your bones, my brave little knight." Eric is joined by George Brignoni to unpack The Green Knight. The reimagining of the Arthurian legend, serves as a haunting meditation on honor, humility, and divine mercy revealing that true greatness isn't in grand acts, but in the quiet virtues. Discover why this visually stunning masterpiece is more than just an atmospheric epic; it's a theological mirror showing us the peril of false piety, the power of mercy, and the true meaning of heroism.

This month on Magus we're discussing maybe the most influential wizard of all time, and a true original - it's only flippin' Merlin!We track his development through prehistory via the archetype of the "Lord of Ecstasy" - a deific entity who appears in mythologies from all over the world.In addition to exploring his British precedents in the form of the Northern and Scots Lowland wild man of the woods Lailoken and the Welsh version of that same character in the form of Myrddin Wyllt, we also marinade ourselves in the swell of "Arthurian" stories that rose and sloshed about across the Medieval era.After he's given the name 'Merlinus' by Geoffrey of Monmouth though, Merlin becomes central to not just tales of Camelot but the propaganda of a slew of European kings.We track how, across the British Isles, his identity continues to twist and mutate - befitting the Latin title of his forebears, homo silvaticus. Though at the same time, across the English Channel, the French and central European courts thought of Merlin as one of the great masters of 'Natural Magic.' Born of a demon and a virgin princess, to alchemists and occultists from Cornelius Agrippa to the Brotherhood of the Golden Dawn he was the first building block of an extensive and rigorous magical system which offered proponents God-like powers to shape reality.From Thomas Malory to Alfred Lord Tennyson, J.R.R. Tolkien to the Disney corporation, he is a cultural emblem whose meaning has only continued to shapeshift.Which is only appropriate really, when you think about it...Speak with you again on Thursday for another triple-bill of fairy tales and chats about them with The Ratcatcher and The True History of Little Golden Hood and The Three Dwarfs!Thumbnail cover art for this episode features "Volkhv" by Andrey Shishkin.Three Ravens is an English myth and folklore podcast hosted by Eleanor Conlon and Martin Vaux.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. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?REGISTER FOR THE TALES OF SOUTHERN ENGLAND TOURVisit our website Join our Patreon Social media channels and sponsors Hosted on Acast.

Chaosium is reviving the iconic The Great Pendragon Campaign for the 6th edition of the Pendragon tabletop RPG, originally created by Greg Stafford. Known for exploring 80 years of Arthurian legend, the updated campaign will be released in multiple volumes over two years, starting with Pendragon: The Boy King in August 2026. This first entry covers nearly twenty in-game years during King Uther Pendragon’s reign, focusing on a period of chaos and civil war that sets the path for Camelot’s rise. The new version is built upon notes and updates drafted by Stafford before his passing, aiming to integrate his complete vision of Arthurian Britain. MCDM has launched a free alpha playtest for their upcoming Crows tabletop RPG, a survival horror dungeon crawler set in a post-apocalyptic fantasy world. The game, influenced by the OSR style, casts players as “Crows” searching for treasure in ancient ruins. Key mechanics emphasize survival and attrition, featuring equipment-driven character design, treasure-based advancement (where experience is gained from bringing loot back to town), and a central slot-based inventory system. Magic is unpredictable and lethal, combat is fast and dangerous, and time in the dungeon is tracked using Dungeon Turns and usage dice for resources. The playtest is centered on the multi-level “Blood Library” adventure, and players are asked to submit feedback before June 29th, 2026. MÖRK BORG Heresy Supreme, the first video game adaptation of the apocalyptic MÖRK BORG tabletop RPG, is now available in Early Access. This is a side-scrolling action RPG featuring “souls-like” combat that is brutal, slow, and requires careful timing, where death is a constant element. The game’s premise involves a desperate attempt to stall the Apocalypse in a cursed, dark fantasy world. The developers plan to keep the game in Early Access for six months to a year, and they are actively engaging the player community to help shape future features, including voting on the next playable Class. Venger's Decks has released the physical edition of The Chaos Card Deck TTRPG, a complete, rules-light, card-based system designed for zero-prep tabletop adventuring. The game's main appeal is its extreme portability and accessibility, using a single tarot-sized deck to handle mechanics for character creation, session generation, and on-the-fly monster encounters. The Chaos supports both solo and group play through a simple structural loop (The Keep, The Realm, return) that accommodates fluctuating player counts. The physical release, which is intended as a tactile upgrade over the free digital rules, also includes downloadable assets like high-definition battle maps and printable character sheets. #pendragon #crowsrpg #morkborg #vengerdecks Mork Borg: Heresy Supreme: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3216800/MRK_BORG_Heresy_Supreme/ https://www.morbidwaregames.com/ Pendragon Campaign: https://www.chaosium.com/blogpendragon-the-boy-king-the-epic-ttrpg-campaign-returns/ MCDM Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/mcdm Chaos Cards: https://thechaosttrpg.com/products/the-chaos-card-deck-tabletop-roleplaying-game Demonic Grimoire on Backkit: https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/exalted-funeral/old-school-essentials-demonic-grimoire Hellblaster: Against the Cyberfiend: https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/bloodstar-productions/hellblaster-against-the-cyberfiends Warmachine on MyMiniFactory: https://mmf.io/upturned Mantic Companion App: https://companion.manticgames.com/ Use our Referral code: MCTXEE Support Us by Shopping on DTRPG (afilliate link): https://www.drivethrurpg.com?affiliate_id=2081746 Matt’s DriveThruRPG Publications: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?author=Matthew%20Robinson https://substack.com/@matthewrobinson3 Chris on social media: https://hyvemynd.itch.io/​​ Jeremy's Links: http://www.abusecartoons.com/​​ http://www.rcharvey.com ​​Support Us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/upturnedtable Give us a tip on our livestream: https://streamlabs.com/upturnedtabletop/tip​ Donate or give us a tip on Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/2754JZFW2QZU4 Intro song is “Chips” by KokoroNoMe https://kokoronome.bandcamp.com/

Ever wondered about the queer stories hiding in plain sight within ancient Arthurian legends? We sit down with author John Glynn to discuss his captivating new novel, The Lost Book of Lancelot. In this deep dive, John reveals how he rediscovered the queer coded love story between Lancelot and Galehaut within the 13th century Vulgate Cycle, a narrative that was largely erased in later versions of the myth. We explore the fascinating world building of the Isle of Women, the significance of Lancelot's surrogate mother, the Lady of the Lake, and how the author navigated the transition between the old ways and the rising influence of Christianity.John also explains his decision to humanize Lancelot by addressing his legendary madness through the lens of modern mental health and emotional depth. We discuss the powerful matriarchal influences in the story, the introduction of the badass knight Bagotta, and why the novel uses an interlacing narrative structure similar to a soap opera to keep readers turning pages. Whether you are a diehard fan of mythology or new to the Round Table, this conversation offers a fresh perspective on one of history's most famous knights.If you want to support us and gain access to bonus content become a Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BGE Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Wanna talk queer media with us and our friends?

Send us Fan MailWe've got another new theme this week and this time we will be delving into "movies that could not be made today".  There could be various social, technical, political or other reasons why but regardless, these will be movies that would not see the light of day in our modern times.Up first we have the Arthurian legend fever-dream that is 1981's Excalibur.  Featuring appearances by Patrick Stewart, Liam Neeson, Helen Mirren and starring Nigel Terry as Arthur we have Merlin the magician helping Arthur Pendragon unite the Britons around the Round Table of Camelot, even as dark forces conspire to tear it apart.  This one is a weird one that would most likely not be made today for a variety of reasons that we get into.We talk about all kinds of other things as usual so sit back, relax and enjoy the show.

Malcolm Guite joins the show for a wide-ranging conversation covering Arthurian legend, the friendship of Tolkien and Lewis, and the deep human longing for mystery and enchantment. Ep. 579 - - -

We’re testing out a new review format, with our thoughts recorded in real-time after 1, 2, and 3 plays. 0:00:00 Fact for 422 Kuwait Airways Flight 422 hijacking – the hijacking lasted 16 days!

Andrew found the weird cat game he mentioned: it’s Catlantis. 0:22:20 1,2,3 – Tidal Blades 2! We give our thoughts on Tidal Blades 2: Rise of the Unfolders. We really enjoyed this game, but it is a LOT. (First play conversation was originally from episode 415.) 0:28:10 after the second play We get a little more comfortable with the largeness of the game. 0:40:30 after the third play Verdict: We think Tidal Blades 2: Rise of the Unfolders is overall a better game than Tidal Blades: Heroes of the Reef. Are we going to come back to this game and play it more and more? Maybe. We really enjoy this game. It’s immersive, and when we start playing we don’t really want to stop. But we need to allow 3+ hours for a play session. And that’s really hard for us to do. And we don’t have the space to leave it set up. Maybe we can at least play it a few more times over the kids’ summer vacation? We recommend this to families with a heavy caveat: this is a big game that requires a big commitment. 0:58:40 New Backtalk Question Last week we talked about the game or game type you can’t help but buy. This week, let’s flip the question. Is there a game you want, but you won’t let yourself get? Maybe it’s too expensive, maybe you just know it won’t get played in your house.

This week on The Literary Life Podcast, we have a special episode in which our hosts Angelina Stanford, Thomas Banks, and Cindy Rollins and joined by poet, priest, scholar, and musician Malcolm Guite. Together they discuss not only Father Guite's newest book, Galahad and the Grail, but also the underlying ideas of why stories matter and what power they have in our lives. Malcolm Guite shares some thoughts on the value of both metrical poetry and the ballad form, as well as his own composition habits. He retells the Arthurian legend his own mother told him as a child and how this story is a powerful picture of the Gospel. Other topics they explore are how we see gospel echoes in "pre-Christian" stories, what it is like to have people find new layers of meaning in your writing, Join us again next week for an episode from the vault on Tolkien's "Why Read Fairy Stories," which will be followed by an additional "update" episode on the same essay with Jenn Rogers.

We return to the 1950s tv series The Adventures of Sir Lancelot with two episodes: Episode 3, "The Queen's Knight", which takes some inspiration from Chretien de Troyes' Lancelot, le Chevalier de la charrette as well as Malory's Le Morte Darthur, with Guinevere abducted by Mordred and Lancelot disguising himself as a peasant driving a cart in order to rescue her. Episode 20, "Maid of Somerset", where the people of Cheddar, famed for its cheese, are subjected to the cruel king Meliot, who sells his people into slavery, until Lancelot conspires with the peasants to conduct an uprising against the king. Both episodes are interesting in how they utilize Arthurian legend in order to tell more egalitarian stories, with common people frequently pointing out that all these knights and kings never have to deal with the pains and humiliations they live under. Starring William Russell, Cyril Smith, Bruce Seton, Jane Hylton, and Patricia Kneale. Written by Leslie Poynton (episode 3); Selwyn Jepson (episode 20). Directed by Ralph Smart; Bernard Knowles. This is a preview of the latest episode of our series Hollywood Avalon.

We all know what happened to Henry VIII's second wife, Anne Boleyn. But what if she woke up the day after her execution and took it upon herself to seek justice? A fantastical journey through the wilds of England and Tudor history, filled with danger and magic and steeped in Arthurian legend.

Jonathan Boorman's epic thesp fest was a big hit at the box office and a surprise watch in the Dunleavy household. The cast list is impressive. The lighting is dark. The dialogue is as clanking as the shiny armour. And the laughs come thick, fast and mostly not on purpose. Did Mick, Hannah and Jen have a good time with all the thrusting, grunting, Arthurian legend and whole load of unexpected Geoff Tipps? And does the answer to that mean it's a good film? Find out!

What is your calling in life? For poet, songwriter, and academic, Malcolm Guite, it's unequivocally clear–to be a storyteller. Today on the podcast Audrey and I chat with Malcolm about the first volume in his new retelling of the classic King Arthur stories, Galahad and the Grail, illustrated by the incredible Stephen Crotts and published by our friends over at Rabbit Room Press. Not only is Malcolm adapting the legends of King Arthur, he's doing it in poetic ballad form, which means they are basically designed to be read aloud. In our conversation, he tells us about the epic journey he and his publisher and illustrator undertook to visit sites connected to the Arthurian legends, how a childhood surrounded by books and stories led him to his lifelong love and study of literature and poetry, and the impact his own mother had on his journey to becoming a poet and storyteller. In this episode, you'll hear: Why Malcolm chose to write this story in ballad form How woodland walks inspire Malcolm's writing and why he knew it was time to “take up the tale”What elements and parallels of Biblical stories Malcolm wanted to restore that have often been left out of modern Arthurian retellingsLearn more about Sarah Mackenzie:Read-Aloud RevivalWaxwing BooksSubscribe to the NewsletterFind the rest of the show notes at: readaloudrevival.com/malcolm-guite

Malcolm Guite joins me to talk about his new epic poem Galahad and the Grail and why these ancient stories still matter. We explore how myth and poetry can help us see what's real, how we've lost a sense of wonder in a mechanized and disenchanted world, and why imagination is essential for meaning. Malcolm shares how the story of the wasteland speaks to our cultural moment - from ecological crisis to the rise of technology - and how beauty, story, and the recovery of the sacred can begin to heal what's been broken. This conversation moves from Arthurian legend to theology, from poetry to modern life, and invites us to see the world again with clarity, depth, and hope.Malcolm Guite is a poet, scholar, and Life Fellow of Girton College, Cambridge. He has published five collections of poetry and many other books including Mariner: A Voyage with Samuel Taylor Coleridge (Hodder, 2017).In 2023 he was awarded the Lanfranc Medal for Education and Scholarship by the Archbishop of Canterbury. He lives in Norfolk and travels extensively to give poetry readings and lectures and also has a popular YouTube channel he calls “A Spell in the Library.”Malcolm's Book:Galahad and the GrailConnect with Joshua: jjohnson@shiftingculturepodcast.comGo to www.shiftingculturepodcast.com to interact and donate.

Feywyn RPG, a new fantasy setting and game from RiotMinds, is an Arthurian-inspired dark fantasy tabletop RPG that blends Celtic myth with mist-shrouded folklore. Set in a land where the boundary between the mortal and spirit realms is thin, the game challenges players to resist the encroaching Mist and fight supernatural threats. The core mechanic involves rolling a d20 and adding an attribute to meet a Challenge Value, with character consequences accumulating through Wounds (physical danger) and Fear (supernatural terror). A beta version of the Feywyn Digital Companion has also been released, providing a VTT, character creation tools, a dice roller, and a bestiary. The Draw Steel Codex VTT is a new online tool and virtual tabletop for Draw Steel, the action-oriented fantasy RPG from MCDM, which prioritizes “heroic action over complex mechanics”. Available in Early Access for $19.99, the Codex includes all core rules from Draw Steel: Heroes and Draw Steel: Monsters, as well as “The Delian Tomb – Start Here Adventure” to help parties begin playing quickly. Key features of the VTT include tools for building or importing custom maps with dynamic lighting and multiple levels, along with the ability for each player to create custom characters, profile icons, and battle soundtracks. The VTT is designed to be suitable for both new and seasoned players, optimally supporting a Director with 3–6 players, and requires a 64-bit processor and 8 GB of RAM. Rascal News looked at Groupfinder Data, which analyzes the current looking-for-group (LFG) landscape in the TTRPG community. The data from April 2026 confirms that Dungeons & Dragons remains the industry behemoth, accounting for approximately 60% of groups and 90% of player posts on the platform. However, when D&D data is excluded, a varied and thriving ecosystem of alternative systems is visible. The most popular non-D&D systems listed are Pathfinder, Daggerheart, Call of Cthulhu, Vampire: The Masquerade, and Cyberpunk RED. Breathless: Frightmare Edition is a major update and expansion of the original 2022 two-page zombie survival TTRPG written by Rene-Pier Deshaies, now published by Mythworks. The original game gained notoriety for its mechanics that used diminishing dice to reflect tension and scarcity in a zombie-infested world, with over 350 other games or hacks using its core rules. This updated version is being released as part of Mythworks’ new STORYPAK line, which aims to lower the barrier to entry for TTRPGs by creating games that are simple and lightweight. Designed with a 90s slasher-horror/VHS aesthetic, Frightmare Edition is packaged in a cassette container holding 12 pamphlets, which include updated rules, tools for generating zombie dangers, and four adventures, allowing the game to be run as one-shots or longer 6-12 session campaigns #feywyn #drawsteel #groupfinder #breathlessrpg Feywyn RPG website: https://www.feywyn.com/ Groupfinder: https://groupfinder.eu/library/is-dnd-still-king-a-deep-dive-into-groupfinders-2026-matchmaking-data Breathless: Frightmare Edition: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mythworks/breathless-frightmare-edition Warmachine on MyMiniFactory: https://mmf.io/upturned Mantic Companion App: https://companion.manticgames.com/ Use our Referral code: MCTXEE Support Us by Shopping on DTRPG (afilliate link): https://www.drivethrurpg.com?affiliate_id=2081746 Matt’s DriveThruRPG Publications: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?author=Matthew%20Robinson https://substack.com/@matthewrobinson3 Chris on social media: https://hyvemynd.itch.io/​​ Jeremy's Links: http://www.abusecartoons.com/​​ http://www.rcharvey.com ​​Support Us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/upturnedtable Give us a tip on our livestream: https://streamlabs.com/upturnedtabletop/tip​ Donate or give us a tip on Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/2754JZFW2QZU4 Intro song is “Chips” by KokoroNoMe https://kokoronome.bandcamp.com/

In Episode 4 of Seeing Tarot, artist Anna Rose Stabler and tarot reader Gina Wisotzky continue their card-by-card exploration of the tarot, moving through the aces of the Minor Arcana.Rather than defining cards through fixed meanings, this podcast explores what happens when you live with their energy over time: through art-making, daily life, season, and conversation.This month's focus: The Ace of CupsIn this episode, Anna and Gina discuss:* Water as a fluid, transformative element that dissolves the hardness of Swords and Wands into something tender and ineffable* The shadow side of Cups: beneath the softness, what is sinister, soporific, and hidden* The Grail legend as tarot mirror: the holy fool, purity of heart, and the quest for impossible wholeness* How the five streams in the card's imagery connect to the senses and the facets of being alive* The upside-down M on the chalice and its possible allusion to the Virgin Mary* Rachel Pollack's framing of the Ace of Cups as “an emblem of love underpinning life”* Psychedelics, blue lotus, and states of perception beyond language* The Cocteau Twins as the ultimate Cups band* Gina's March forecast and how the Eight of Cups, Ten of Cups, and Six of Wands illuminate the art of following the flow* Anna's illustration process: gray skies, a sun-sized wafer, and a Medieval-style border* A preview of the Ace of Pentacles and the turn toward earthThe conversation moves freely between the mystical and the grounded — from Arthurian legend and Gnostic Christianity to perfume and Pokémon. The Ace of Cups emerges the place where the full spectrum of emotional life gathers: seeking, melancholy, beauty, and the underlying unity beneath it all.References & InfluencesThe Grail Legend by Emma Jung and Marie-Louise von FranzSeventy-Eight Degrees of Wisdom by Rachel PollackThe Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer BradleyElaine Pagels and the Gnostic GospelsThe Cocteau TwinsAce of Cups MoodboardScents & Sensory CorrespondencesAce of CupsFragranceGina's PickParfum de Thérèse by Frédéric Malle — created by Edmond Roudnitska in the late 1950s for his wife, who wore it exclusively until Frédéric Malle later brought it to market.

In this episode of The Classical Mind, Dr. Junius Johnson sits down with Buck Holler from the CiRCE Institute to discuss "Tapestry," a new writing and grammar curriculum designed to bridge the gap between early elementary studies and the advanced persuasive essays found in The Lost Tools of Writing. Holler explains that for twenty-five centuries, the study of grammar and literature were considered a single, unified discipline, an organic connection that was largely severed during the Enlightenment. By re-integrating these fields, the curriculum moves away from the modern trend of teaching grammar through isolated, "zigzag" sentences and instead grounds linguistic study in the rich soil of full stories, including Aesop's fables, Arthurian legends, and sacred Scripture.

Francis Ford Coppola's epic about the Vietnam War draws as much from J.G. Frazer's The Golden Bough and Jessie Weston's landmark Arthurian study From Ritual to Romance as it does from Joseph Conrad's novel of African colonialism Heart of Darkness. It's a grail quest with no grail, a pilgrimage with no relief. It's the end of kings, and the end of the world. Starring Martin Sheen, Marlon Brando, Robert Duvall, Laurence Fishburn, and Dennis Hopper. Written by John Milius. Directed by Francis Ford Coppola.

#409 In this episode, Guy introduced a deep conversation with Welsh guest Mark TJ Kean, who calls himself a full-time "professional wizard" and links dragons and serpents to kundalini and the spiral "fabric of reality," which he says Druids understood. Mark described a 2003 awakening in London after obsessing over ancient Egypt: staring at a light, he received a "download" about the Great Pyramid's relationship to light, frequency, and out-of-body travel, followed by two weeks of bliss and a turn to alchemy, Kabbalah, and kundalini yoga. He recounted spontaneous astral experiences, a lucid-dream retreat where he rode a giant serpent into space, and his "Celtic chakras" interpretation of Arthurian spinning castles and the Holy Grail as the heart center. He also shared living in Panama's jungle during the pandemic, a solo mountain vision quest, and becoming fully dedicated to his courses at Sleeping Serpent. About Mark: Following a Spiritual awakening in 2003, Mark shares wisdom from two decades of experience with practicing and teaching Spirituality. Highly trained in Kundalini Yoga, Kundalini Dance, Shamanism, Meditation, Lucid Dreaming, Alchemy, Magic, Druidry, and many other Spiritual and Esoteric subjects. He re-imagines ancient wisdom practices for the modern world, such as Shamanic Dragon Yoga and Ancient Egyptian Serpent Shamanism. He is the co-creator of the popular Kundalini Clubbing events in the UK. He teaches all over the world, and has over 20,000 online students, in every country in the world. He helps spiritual seekers go from feeling stagnant in their spiritual development, and disconnected from their life mission, to experiencing Spiritual awakening and transformation, by embodying ancient wisdom practices. This journey enables them to unlock their potential, achieve deep contentment, and harness their newfound spiritual energy and creativity toward living their life mission fully.

The boys drink and review Blackbeard's Breakfast, a robust porter, then discuss a new series about Merlin. The Daily Wire has entered the fantasy arena with *The Pendragon Cycle: Rise of the Merlin* — but to understand what they're trying to do, you have to go back much further than Camelot.In this episode we trace the evolution of the Arthurian legend from its earliest Welsh roots to modern reinterpretations. The story didn't start as knights and chivalry — it started with a war leader and a mad prophet in the woods. From there, it became a national myth under Geoffrey of Monmouth, a romantic tragedy in the French courts, and finally a moral and symbolic drama in writers like Alfred Lord Tennyson, C. S. Lewis, and Stephen R. Lawhead.Along the way, the core tension of the story takes shape:* Arthur represents order, law, and civilization.* Merlin represents mystery, prophecy, and the unseen world.* Lancelot and Guinevere introduce desire — the human element that breaks even the best systems.* Mordred brings the final blow: the collapse that comes from within.We explore how these layers built up over centuries — and how modern versions, including the Daily Wire's, are really attempts to answer an old question:Can a civilization hold together without something sacred at its core?We'll also talk about:* Why Arthur is almost strangely free of personal desire* Why Merlin is often the one who falls first* How the love triangle turns myth into tragedy* Why modern culture can't seem to agree on what this story means anymore* And whether *Rise of the Merlin* is trying to recover something we've lost — or just retell the story with a different agendaIf you think this is just a fantasy story about swords and magic, you're missing it.This is a story about order, mystery, desire — and why every kingdom eventually breaks.Grab a beer and join us.

This will have you swearing!If it's a rogue-like, you know that the Xbox Game Pass "Surprise Me" button is the one that picked it. Developed by Windwalk Games and published by Team17, this game takes a different approach to established Arthurian legends and asks "What if Arthur and his knights were the villains?" You'll step into the boots of a nameless hero and, with the help of blessings from a familiar cast of characters, you'll do your darnedest to liberate Camelot from their corrupt king's clutches. Now that you know the premise, you're probably wondering if it will be an entertaining thing to experience. Well, fortunately for you, we have two hosts that each spent an hour making a go at it and now they're here to share their stories. Let's learn if they've sworn to continue...What do you think? Let us know!Check out all our links here:https://linktr.ee/tc1h1dThanks for taking this ride with us :-)

✨Cobbler Ahmet just wants to fix shoes✨But his wife wants those sweet, sweet bath reservations, so it looks like he's going to go be the Chief Astrologer to the Sultan. The only problem(s)? He doesn't like astrology, doesn't know how to do it, and starts out by selling his astrology by the side of the highway.That's actually the second story, because this week there are two stories of two Ahmets following dreams. On the first is junkman Ahmet, who has the same wonderful dream every night...except when it stops being wonderful, and starts getting real, he learns that sometimes following your dreams can be painful. And also weird.

What are the stories we tell ourselves and each other about ourselves and each other and our place in the living web of life—and how do we shape them in service to Life?  This is the central question that animates Accidental Gods: the idea that we are a storied species, that humanity lives and breathes and loves and learns by the rich tapestry of stories that shape our lives.  Everything we do from picking a career to moving house, from finding our life's co-creator(s) to choosing what to have for lunch is underpinned by stories of who we are and how the world works.  Often, we take these stories so much for granted that we don't even recognise they are stories - we genuinely believe the world works like this.But then once in a while, someone comes along with such great heart and deep, compassionate fluency in the many layers of our myths that they can weave magic wild enough to turn the bus that is humanity from the edge of the cliff - or at the very least, they can help us imagine what it is to be something entirely other, with no bus and no cliff. This week's guest, Sam Crosby, is one such myth-weaver. Sam is founder of Recalling Fire, the oral storytelling practice bringing ancient courage to modern leadership challenges. Guided by the work of Dr Martin Shaw at the School of Myth, fellow of the Bio-Leadership Project, mentor for A Band of Brothers and Alumnus of the Dartington College of Arts, he works with individuals and organisations all around the world, helping us to weave, re-weave the stories of our lives. Of this process, he says, '…after sharing reverential space and stories with hundreds of people as an oral storyteller and hundreds of thousands more as a consultant for culture, I believe stories and careful word choice have what it takes to guide us further down.'This conversation was rich and deeply layered.  We explored Arthurian Legend (fwiw, I think A Sword at Sunset by Rosemary Sutcliff remains the best Arthurian book, though Mary Stewart's Crystal Cave trilogy was my introduction to the whole genre and while I could never bring myself to read the third book, the first two were stellar), through a story of choice and agency, through the nature of grief and gratitude, love, loss and death as a Rite of Passage to the nature of story in modern politics: everything was here in a truly generative long-hour's conversation.   Enjoy!

You can read it though, just a summary of the banger of a video you're watching.The Dark Angels are easily one of the most secretive—and dangerous—forces in Warhammer 40,000. On the surface, they're noble, knightly warriors—Arthurian legends in power armor. But beneath that polished image lies a legion defined by paranoia, hidden sins, and a secret that could damn them all: the Fallen.In this deep dive, we break down the full history of the First Legion—from their brutal origins during the Unification Wars, through the rise of Lion El'Jonson, to the catastrophic events of the Horus Heresy that shattered their legacy. We explore how the Dark Angels became the Emperor's ultimate problem-solvers—wielding forbidden weapons, fighting humanity's worst enemies, and operating more like black-ops than traditional Space Marines.But the real story begins after their fall from grace. As the truth about their traitorous brothers spread across time and space, the Dark Angels became something far more complex: a legion obsessed with secrecy, redemption, and absolute control over their own narrative. Their hunt for the Fallen has shaped everything they are, pushing them to the edge of loyalty and heresy in equal measure.With the return of the Lion and major shifts in the current timeline, the Dark Angels are once again at the center of the galaxy's fate. Are they still loyal servants of the Imperium—or a ticking time bomb waiting to go off?———TAGSwarhammer 40k, warhammer 40k lore, warhammer lore, 40k lore, warhammer 40,000 lore, dark angels, dark angels lore, dark angels 40k, lion el'jonson, lion el johnson return, the lion primarch, fallen dark angels, the fallen 40k, cypher 40k, luther dark angels, caliban warhammer, the rock 40k, unforgiven dark angels, first legion 40k, space marines, space marine lore, space marine legions, adeptus astartes, imperium of man, emperor of mankind, horus heresy, horus heresy lore, great crusade, unification wars 40k, rangdan xenocides, warhammer timeline, warhammer history, grimdark, grimdark lore, dark sci fi, gothic sci fi, warhammer explained, 40k explained, lore explained, warhammer deep dive, 40k deep dive, lore breakdown, warhammer analysis, 40k analysis, warhammer theories, 40k theories, warhammer secrets, 40k secrets, hidden lore 40k, warhammer conspiracy, warhammer storytelling, warhammer youtube, lore video, warhammer factions, 40k factions, chaos space marines, traitor legions, loyalist legions, primarchs, primarch lore, roboute guilliman, guilliman 40k, imperium secundus, warhammer characters, sci fi universe, warhammer community, grimdark future, there is only war, warhammer beginners guide, 40k beginner lore, advanced 40k lore, warhammer iceberg, 40k iceberg, warhammer discussion, 40k discussion, warhammer content, warhammer creator, warhammer deep lore, dark angels secrets, fallen angels warhammer, lion el'jonson lore, warhammer return of the lion, modern 40k lore, warhammer current timeline, 40k current events, space marine chapter, space marine chapters, warhammer factions explained, 40k factions explained, dark angels history —————Opinions expressed in this video are solely those of Isyander & Koda and in no way reflect the views or opinions of Games Workshop Ltd.Artwork throughout this video is used for educational purposes. if you see your artwork and would like an art credit, message me.Support the show

Dr. Martin Shaw on February 5, 2026 at the Graduate by Hilton Evanston Hotel. There's an old Irish belief that if you aren't wrapped in a cloak of story you will be unprepared for what the world will hurl at you. You remain adolescent at just the moment a culture worth its salt requires you to become a real, grown, human being. Myths from antiquity are vivid in describing the conditions of life. Christianity goes a step further in providing the most extraordinary example of how to live that life. Working out of examples from Arthurian and fairy tale motifs, acclaimed mythographer Martin Shaw shows how, if ‘all true is God's truth', profound Christian resonances can be found in many mythic traditions. How do stories assist us in the making of a real human being? In troubled times how could we forge a deeper life? In this event, we welcome Dr. Martin Shaw to celebrate the release of his new book _Liturgies of the Wild_.

The Questing Beast, also known as the Beast Glatisant, is a mythical creature from Arthurian legend. It is famed for the strange noise it emits—resembling the barking of thirty couples of hounds (coming from its belly). The creature typically appears with a hybrid form: the head of a serpent, the body of a leopard, the haunches of a lion, and the feet of a hart (stag)!!!https://www.ronelthemythmaker.com/questing-beast-folklore/https://mythus.fandom.com/wiki/Questing_Beasthttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Questing_Beasthttps://search.brave.com/search?q=palamedes+questing+beast&summary=1&conversation=08b34251e649a99663e0b8736c61355fe1e8https://kingarthurknightstale.wiki.fextralife.com/The+Questing+Beasthttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mIJ39RMz8Xg
