Astral travel is a common term used in metaphysical circles. Have you ever wondered what astral travel and the Astral Plane meant, and what the theories and insights around it are? Well, that's what today's episode is all about. Astral travel is often referred to as an out of body experience, an OBE. It's a phenomenon that has intrigued spiritual practitioners, philosophers and scientists for centuries, it is commonly described as a state in which the consciousness or the soul temporarily separates from the physical body and transverses A nonphysical realm known as the astral plane. This episode explores the definitions, theories and perspectives regarding astral travel and the astral world, addressing both historical beliefs and some modern interpretations.Astral travel remains to be a fascinating and yet enigmatic subject, straddling the boundaries between the spiritual and the scientific, while ancient traditions have long acknowledged the existence of the astral plane, modern theories continue to explore the nature of this phenomenon, whether one views astral projection as a spiritual journal journey or as a psychological phenomenon. It is worth studying, despite the ongoing debate and its nature, the allure of astral travel is a means of exploring the mysteries of consciousness and existence that continue to captivate individuals worldwide. So call in more knowledge about astral travel and the astral plane. “Call IT in With Dar”.Support the showFull Show Notes can be found at CallITInPodcast.comPhoto credit: Rebecca Lange Photography Music credit: Kevin MacLeod Incompetech.com (licensed under Creative Commons) Production credit: Erin Schenke @ Emerald Support Services LLC.

"Maybe you've been given clues in waking life, but you're not really affording enough at paying enough attention to what that is... your spirit will wake you up to the fact that you need to pay attention."Athena Laz is my guest today.

Episode 74 features a conversation with myself and my husband Justin in which we discuss Charles W Leadbeater's book, The Astral Plane: Its Scenery, Inhabitants & Phenomena. We explore the characteristics of the astral plane, it's 7 divisions, the types of beings that exist there, and some experiences that are directly connected to this plane including astral projection, remote viewing, dreaming, encounters with ghosts and elemental beings, and even the journey we experience when we die. AstralMeadow.com

In this second season premiere we return to the recently-rescued Astral Plane. Tendy is having a difficult time adjusting to Mac's promotion, Mac is feeling insecure in the new role, and C.A.S.H. is struggling with the anxiety of keeping secrets from her friends. That's when a traveler arrives set on fixing everyone else's problems even as she carries a peculiar problem of her own.

Welcome true believers to X-Men Horoscopes where each week our host Lodro Rinzler is in conversation with a special guest to discuss the X-Men issue that aligns with a significant month and year from their life and what that issue reveals about their future. In this episode everyone is having a super slutty time! Friend of the pod Cassie Lilly joins our host Lodro Rinzler to discuss the Shadow King taking over Muir Island. Colossus is possessed, Gambit is a Gumbo Geek and the power of dance will save us all. Also: Forge is better than Iron Man (change my mind), the British perception of New Orleans culture and why you should NEVER date anyone who plays on the astral plane. What does Uncanny X-Men 279 say about Cassie's future/how we listeners can overcome that voice in our heads? Tune in to find out! Cassie Lilly is a truly creative person, having trained as an actress, most notably at the celebrated National Youth Theatre of London, who has also successfully dabbled in modeling and voiceover work before settling into her skills as a writer, with her first article published in 2021 detailing her perspective as a transgender girl in the modern world. She is an activist at heart, a champion for LGBTQ rights and the fight against racism, lending her voice as an educational public speaker, shedding light on the history and facts surrounding the culture war on trans people. As an avid comic book reader from an early age, Cassie is considered a “go-to” girl when it comes to comics. This lends perfectly to her super fun content coverage as a bubbly Tiktoker and across social media, diving into nerd culture, comic book characters, history and lore! You can join the discussion with @who.cassie across all social media! More of Lodro Rinzler's work can be found here and here and you can follow the podcast on Instagram at xmenpanelsdaily where we post X-Men comic panels...daily.

On this episode of Think Theory Radio we delve into the the power of the serpent! Serpent mythology is the oldest spiritual belief system and symbolism in human history. Originally representing a creator deity and a symbol of wisdom and fertility the snake was highly revered. How and why did the serpent come to represent evil? Plus, how the symbol of the serpent correlates to quantum physics, DNA, cosmology, and psychedelic experiences!!!

Are humans stuck in a karmic cycle that is keeping them unwittingly trapped to unending incarnations on Earth? What if you are ready to come out of that cycle? Isabella's book Leaving the Trap explores this very question. She gives examples in her experiences of near death and quantum journeying to back up her claim, as well as practical advice for how to break out of the reincarnation cycle. Isabella Greene, a metaphysical specialist, spiritual healer, and author joins for a captivating discussion on the provocative topic of soul entrapment on Earth. Touching on fascintating subjects such as the intricacies of the astral plane, quantum travel, reincarnation, and the ascent of consciousness, Isabella offers insights from her personal journey and experiences.  Isabella shares the insights gained through her astral and quantum travels, near death experiences, and breathwork and meditation practices from which she has concluded that upon death we are being manipulated into reincarnating back to Earth by handlers who represent themselves as trusted beings of light. She offers solutions to becoming sovereign in order to end the suffering that comes from continuous incarnations in our dimension. 00:00 Introduction and Welcome 00:34 Introducing Special Guest: Isabella Green 01:54 Isabella's Journey: From Corporate to Spiritual 06:00 Exploring Astral Sparring and Near Death Experiences 12:04 Understanding the Astral Plane and Reincarnation Cycle 16:00 Experiencing the Void and Quantum Travel 30:28 The Importance of Experience in Spiritual Growth 31:16 The Power of Breathwork and Meditation 32:32 Understanding Astral Projection 33:16 Q&A Session Begins 33:23 Exploring the Concept of Age and Breathwork 34:45 Discussing Lucid Dreaming and Astral Realms 35:14 Understanding the Quantum Field and Dimensions 36:54 The Soul, Consciousness, and Reincarnation 40:18 The Ego Perspective and Reincarnation 47:12 Upcoming Workshops and Events 50:16 Final Q&A Session 54:02 Conclusion and Farewell Resources: Join Isabella Greene at the Sedona Ascension Retreat March 8-10.

This week, the panel begins by exploring Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé with Slate culture writer (and Beyhive stan) Nadira Goffe. The renowned pop diva's theatrical debut works both as a well-oiled concert documentary as well as a surprisingly heartfelt deconstruction of Knowles' previously impenetrable image of perfection. Then, the three consider Todd Haynes' May December, an emotionally curious, tonally dissonant study of life's gray areas starring Natalie Portman, longtime collaborator Julianne Moore, and Charles Melton. Loosely based on the real-life relationship between Mary Kay Letourneau and Vili Fualaau, Haynes (and screenwriter Samy Burch) questions Hollywood's penchant for sensationalizing tragedy and the ways humans interact with each other. Finally, they are joined by EEFOP (Exceedingly Exceptional Friend of the Pod), Slate writer Dan Kois to discuss Dr. Seuss's How the Grinch Lost Christmas!, a posthumous sequel to Theodor Geisel's iconic 1957 children's book, How the Grinch Stole Christmas! The original IP has been marketed and re-imagined within an inch of its life – but does new author Alastair Heim invoke any of the source materials' sincerity or deeper meaning?  In the exclusive Slate Plus segment, the panel answers a listener question from Timothy: “When reading for pleasure, how do you choose what to read next?”  We're also accepting submissions to our yearly call-in show, where Dana, Julia, and Stephen answer questions from Culture Gabfest listeners. Get in touch! Submit a question by calling (260) 337-8260 or emailing us at culturefest@slate.com. Outro music: “Spinning the Wheels” by Dusty Decks Endorsements: Dana: A two-part endorsement that goes together like wine and cheese: If I Should Fall from Grace with God, the third studio album by Irish folk-rock band The Pogues, and “Shane MacGowan Leaves the Astral Plane,” a wonderful essay by Amanda Petrusich at The New Yorker, which memorializes the late frontman. Don't know where to start with The Pogues' catalog? Dana recommends “A Rainy Night in Soho.”  Julia: Drawing inspiration from this episode's children's book segment, Julia endorses the Little Blue Truck series (written by Alice Schertle and illustrated by the late Jill McElmurry) alongside her favorite Theodor Geisel work, Hunches and Bunches. “It's the Beyoncé of Dr. Seuss books.”  Steve: Paris is Burning, which pairs beautifully with Beyoncé's Renaissance. Jennie Livingston's landmark 1990 documentary is one of the most moving films Stephen has ever seen, and provides a vibrant snapshot of New York City's drag-ball scene in the ‘80s.  Podcast production by Cameron Drews.
