This week's show is with Sarah Janes. Author, researcher, curator, retreat/workshop facilitator and public speaker, Sarah Janes specialises in the ancient history and culture of dreaming and has been an enthusiastic lucid dreamer since childhood. Sarah is passionate about the potential of dreaming for physical, emotional, creative and spiritual upliftment, not just for individuals, but for culture and society. Sarah is co-director and curator of Dream Palace Athens, a symposium and deep-dreaming residency project in Greece. She is also the host of popular online lecture series Explorers Egyptology. Sarah has collaborated with Rupert Sheldrake and the British Pilgrimage Trust to reinvigorate the practice of dream incubation at sacred sites around the UK. Currently leading retreats to the ancient dream incubation sanctuaries of the Mediterranean, Sarah is now based between Hastings in England and Archaia Epidavros in the Peloponnese. Sarah's book: Initiation into Dream Mysteries: Drinking from the Pool of Mnemosyne explores the history and culture of dreaming in the Western Esoteric Tradition and is available from all book sellers and on Audible. In this show, Sarah and Lian delve into the profound world of dreams and lucid dreaming, exploring how these altered states of consciousness shape our understanding of reality. They discuss Sarah's lifelong passion for dreaming, the philosophical implications of lucidity, and the potential for personal growth and transformation within the dream realm. They explore the connection between lucid dreaming and hypnagogic states, highlight the transformative nature of these experiences, and share practical techniques for achieving lucidity. Together, they reflect on the role of ancient wisdom in dream practices, consider the cosmic perspective lucid dreaming provides, and emphasise the significance of memory and intention in shaping our dream experiences. We'd love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let's carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage. What you'll learn from this episode: Dreams offer a unique intersection of sleep and wakefulness, providing a space for insight and creativity that taps into our deepest desires and fears. Through lucid dreaming, we can actively engage with these elements for self discovery. Hypnagogic states, those transitional moments between wakefulness and sleep, can be used as a pathway into lucid dreaming, allowing us to consciously enter the dream realm. In this state, we are connected to ancient cultural practices that viewed dreams as essential tools for decision-making and self-understanding. Lucid dreaming is not simply a binary experience but can manifest in varying degrees of awareness - lucidity is a spectrum. By setting intentions, practicing memory recall, and recording dreams, we can deepen our understanding and appreciation of the dream world as a transformative and healing space.

The challenges of Fall fishing Tonight's show run down Fishing Reports 15m Hatcher Bros Erin (@femboyfishing) and Michael (@srien_string_and_stream) are catching smallies and trout and the occasional walleye in the Ozarks Steve NcAngler says trout season is over in The White Mountains but one can still dredge up some nice browns in the catch and release section of the Androscoggin. He's catching bass these days on Sneaky Pete's (topwater bullet head popper with a flared skirt and trailing sili strands) and for subsurface he likes Dragon Tails (a tail material called sili worm behind a built up head, originally cut down “Squirmy” toys) The Driftless-some streams closed for the Fall spawn but plenty of creeks are open to catch and release and the tourists have gone home. Fishing is solitary and they're smashing the terrestrials, some drys and streamers. https://news.orvis.com/fly-fishing/seasons-of-the-driftless-area Joe Henry Fishing at Lake of the Woods is on fire!!! 6m FITN 10min John Gierach passed from a heart attack October 3rd 2024 Apache Trout Success: https://www.doi.gov/pressreleases/secretary-haaland-announces-removal-apache-trout-arizonas-state-fish-endangered Maine Bans Painted Heads: https://www.newscentermaine.com/article/life/animals/wildlife/new-law-expands-maines-lead-fishing-tackle-ban-protect-loons/97-61c87bb3-687c-4610-839a-2ce5eb8fb7fa Laura Williams Maine Audubon Society 30 min Show pt. 2 Halloween Scary Fish: 15-20 min Zombie Salmon-Yes they are catchable, some fight some do not, the scariest thing i have ever felt sorry for short of Frankenstien.

It has never been confirmed. In 1997 one was removed from a man's urethra but the circumstances were “suspect” which is a story just made for Fish Nerds.

Listener spooky stories and other fisher freak outs: 15-20min 62% of respondents have had a weird or spooky incident on the water. 25% said it started scary but turned out to be something ordinary CH and the turtle Chris Snodgrass My Wife and I were trolling for Kokanee Salmon. It was just before dark and we had the only boat on the water. It's a small reservoir in Montana. The water was like glass it was so calm. As we got out to the middle the water swirled next to the boat like a whale turned next to us. The swirl was as big or bigger than our boat. It was extremely creepy so we headed to the dock! Still not sure what the swirl was caused by but maybe an under water spring... It was in 50' of water though. Alan Dumitrescu I'm the only person at this lake. You know the sound of a rod wishing through the air on a hard cast? Yeah that sounds happened in the wooded area behind me just once like a cast. Only similar sounds I've ever heard is bigger birds wings. I looked no birds anywhere no turkeys roosting in trees for the night. The sun was setting at this point. I didn't see anything but it was real close. My only other thought cause a bunch of neighboring property dogs were all fired up a few minutes earlier and they had settled down just before I heard it. Never heard bobcat hiss in person but at that point since they are in that area is all I could think and why the dogs were fired up. So I hurried the hell out of there. I'm not tangling with big kitty if that's what it was. John J Murphy Well I grew up in Salem Ma and used to fish a cemetery pond so I'd go with yes Phantom Casters From Rick Webster I was fishing the first beach at Sandy Hook in Jersey one late September. When I got to the parking lot and not another car in sight. I set up, soaking clams on two rods before sun-up. As the pre-dawn light began to show over the horizon, a THICK bank of fog rolled in. Slack tide and zero wind…very peaceful but not expecting anything spectacular. Suddenly, about 500 seagulls that had been resting on the roof of the bath house lifted into the air and began to dive nosily into the surf. The fog was so thick I couldn't see them, but I could hear them, not 20 yards off the beach. Figuring a blitz of snappers, I sent a 3-ounce Yo-Zuri popper into the fog and immediately came tight on what turned out to be a 12lb Albie. As I was fighting this fish, the fog began to lift and I could see I was surrounded by 25 to 30 other surfcasters. I had no clue how they suddenly appeared as this stretch of beach is wide open, so I would have seen them before the fog came in. No one spoke and the only sounds were screaming gulls and drags as we all enjoyed a rare mix of blues and albies for the next 30 minutes in a classic fall blitz. As the action died down, the fog rolled in again and I appeared to be all alone again. Since I was tired and a little spooked by the mornings events, I packed up my gear and headed back to the parking lot. Just like when I arrived, mine was the only car there. I have no idea where the other fishermen came from or how they disappeared and to this day, I'm not entirely convinced they were actually there. https://onthewater.com/spooky-fishing-stories Aliens prefer fishers: Pascagoula UFO Abduction https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascagoula_Abduction See Entry 12: https://skepticalinquirer.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/29/2019/03/SI-MJ-12.pdf Charles Hickson 42 Calvin Parker 19 Went fishing on the Pascagoula River Mississippi October 11th 1973 On the evening of October 11, 1973, 42-year old Charles Hickson and 19-year-old Calvin Parker went fishing on the west bank of the Pascagoula River. As dusk fell, they heard a whirring/whizzing sound and saw flashes of blue light on the water. They looked up to see an oval-shaped object approximately 30-40 feet across and 8-10 feet high. Three creatures came gliding out of the craft and took them aboard. Completely paralyzed but still conscious, the two men were subjected to a medical exam by a giant robotic eye. They were then returned to shore, and the craft sped away into the night sky. Both changed their stories over time. Parker said he passed out but later claimed to remember certain details. Hickson kept altering his story. The original polygraph on Hickson was given by an untrained operator as part of a commercial deal and there is speculation that it never really took place. Drinking was believed to be part of the incident. Hypnagogic dream paroxysmal sleep-related disorder incubus syndrome both fall in the category of parasominias Still one of the best UFO stories out there.

In this deep and wide-ranging dialogue with Matt Xian from the Xian Archive podcast, I share my testimony of how the conscious use of psychedelics helped liberate me from issues that just wouldn't budge by other means. I differentiate the way I used substances earlier in my life from how I choose to engage with these medicines today, and I do my best to explain in words why 5-MeO-DMT is in a category all its own. We also discuss sound and light technologies as adjuncts to psychedelic journeys—or journeys in themselves, as well as EMF sensitivity and tools you can use to protect yourself.

ORIGINAL AIR DATE: December 1st, 2016Sleep paralysis can be defined in several ways. In terms of the experiencer, it can be described as "a visitation by a malevolent creature which attacked its victims as they slept" (Cox). More clinically, sleep paralysis is understood as "a transient,conscious state of involuntary immobility occurring when falling asleep or upon wakening" (Cheyne, 2002). Research into sleep paralysis has produced compelling evidence that the phenomenon can be explained by brain chemistry and physiology in conjunction with REM sleep. But is that all there is to it?

On this episode, I interview freelance illustrator, designer, podcaster, and fellow Jungian enthusiast Allison Filice about her experiences with hypnagogic (or, "in-between") dream states, and how her subconscious mind directly inspires her art on a daily basis. Allison and I share a mutual enthusiasm for the intersection of spirituality, the healing arts, and creativity which is reflected throughout our conversation. We pull cards from her fabulous candy-colored Oracle deck, The Journey, which deftly combines imagery from both our inner and outer worlds to facilitate profound insights. I also do an intro about surrealist artists such as Salvador Dalí using hypnagogic dream work techniques to inspire their incredible creations.

"I wanted the sea to bridge the work and thought of the reimagined piece as being a number of destinations on the way to falling asleep. I, like many have to work hard to fall asleep, either counting backwards from 10,000, breathing exercises to settle or achieving a state of exhaustion through exercise. Anything to escape the screen and interruptions to "healthy sleep habits" being formed. I used a number of re tracked and collapsed samples feeding them haphazard into a Chase Bliss Habit pedal and then adding Lyra 8 drones and freestyle organ parts ( i am yet to learn chords preferring to rest my fingers on the keyboard that feel just about right). It felt important to remove what I thought could be a cliched "neo ambient" approach to the field recording of the sea and felt obliged to no achieve spa level nirvana. I wanted the listener to work on getting to the last few minutes, navigating a track that is constantly changing with only the hint of a refrain." Gjipe nightfall reimagined by Andy Billington.

Chuck Hyde is the founder of the Boulder Light Club, a unique journey that combines Acoustic Resonance Therapy (ART) and Lucia No03 which is a Hypnagogic Embodied Meditation Light Experience. In this podcast, as much as possible using words, Chuck walks us through the experience at the Light Club, then we explore other dimensions connecting with one of Chuck's favorite scientists of "Light"-- the enigmatic (and late) Dr. Walter Russell who Nikola Tesla famously told to "bury his findings until humanity was ready." We end the interview discussing the limits of this dimension, and Chuck's ineffable experiences with others.

Fantasy. Temptation. Escape. Dreams are an unknown ancient realm that we move to and from every single day.Soft Replica's debut album "Only Ever In Dreams" is a synthesis of many styles: the hypnagogia of vaporwave, the everlasting echoes of dream-pop, and the blurred sonic blanket of shoegaze.

Let's start off by saying this album is a masterpiece. Death's Dynamic Shroud is a vaporwave trio made of Keith Rankin (aka Giant Claw), James Webster (HCMJ), and Tech Honors. However, this album is a solo album by Keith Rankin under the Death's Dynamic Shroud project."Transcendence Bot" is a masterful display of Keith's high-volume, intentional sampling style. The project concept evokes a range of experiences from post-humanist, to Dante's Inferno-esque angel aesthetic, to ethereal; all blending together in a fusion topped by samples of Christina Perry and Katy Perry.I don't think words can do it justice.

Last week we briefly discussed Neil Young's decision to remove his music from Spotify and Greg predicted it was going to grow into something bigger. He was right & we dive back into it. Other artists have joined Young, including Joni Mitchell, India Arie, David Crosby, Stephen Stills, Graham Nash & Nils Lofgren. Podcasts such as “Science Vs”, exclusively on Spotify, as well as prominent hosts Brené Brown & Roxanne Gay have also joined the movement (most after we recorded the show). Joe Rogan, host of the Joe Rogan Experience & the target of Young's ire for his choice in anti-vaccine guests, released a 10min video apology on Instagram…but it doesn't seem to be slowing down the trend. We discuss whether we agree with the purpose of the movement and where things may go from here.Song: Ghost Note - “Swagism”Nick's eldest son (and past guest) Ciri introduced him to the artist Jack Stauber on a road trip this past weekend. The artist has been counted a member of the microgenre “hypnagogic pop”, alongside a disparate number of other artists that borrow heavily from past 70s & 80s genres. ‘H-pop', as it's also called, has been summarily denounced by the vast majority of these artists & it seemed like a perfect opportunity to bring up our new recurring theme “Old vs New Music”.Songs:Jack Stauber - “Leopard”Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti - “Bright Lit Blue Skies”Jay is sad to report the loss of another titan in music. Legendary session keyboard player Hargus “Pig” Robbins, a member of "The Nashville A-Team" continued playing until shortly before his passing last week at the age of 84. We listen to a few of his most notable contributions, but we barely scratch the surface of an endless impressive 65 year career. The man was a truly gifted and technically precise performer and the generations of musicians that he influenced will be felt and heard for many years to come.Also, Jay highly recommends you check out Mdou Moctar playing live in Niger on YouTuhe when you get a chance.Songs: Mdou Moctar - "Chismiten"George Jones - “White Lightning”Patsy Cline - “I Fall To Pieces”Charlie Rich - “Behind Closed Doors”
Today I'd like to explore the borderlands of falling asleep and waking up. Hypnagogic hallucinations occur while falling asleep, while hypnopompic events unfold while awakening. Both states offer fertile ground for discovery.
When the internet came to the world, the world became much smaller. The power to gain information through technology gave many optimism for the future. If you were in elementary school school in the late 90s and the early 2000s, chances are you've experienced learning through software. Pangeapedia Plus by Daniel White takes the sound of what appears to be 90s educational software and takes us back to the optimism that pervaded the earlier parts of the information age. While we don't reminisce romantically on computer class as young elementary students in the American school system, this album takes those memories and sonically presents it to us as something sweet, curious, and truthfully: it was a true time of innocence.Let's set sail for Daniel White's Pangeapedia Plus.
The fourth episode of Spirited Conversations features a conversation with Susan, who shares a life-changing premonition and her explanations about what others may consider to be paranormal experiences. She explains hypnagogic, "the drowsy state that occurs in the transition from wakefulness to sleep" and hypnagogic hallucination, "transient, dreamlike image[s] experienced while falling asleep" (American Psychiatric Association, 2020), and shares her personal philosophy and beliefs about experiences she's had that she can't quite explain away.

What does a perfect morning at an airport feel like? To those who are unaccustomed to travel, it sounds like an strange idea, and to those who are accustomed to travel, it's a straight up absurd idea. The airport is a space that has undergone some strange moments in the past year, and Russian vaporwave artist Bronston Bridge channels that wanderlust fantasy into a beautifully composed chillwave album. Using beautiful synthesizer compositions, this record transports you to headspace where the airport is a place of pleasure, relaxation, and pure bliss.Let's set sail for Bronster Bridge's Breakfast on the Runway.New to The Virtual Ocean?

How did Allison Pelissier cure her insomnia by flashing really bright white light at her face? Can flickering light put you into a hypnagogic trance that facilitates deep relaxation and even trauma processing? Are seizures bad for you? The Lucia Light was invented in Austria by clinical psychologist Dr. Engelbert Winkler and medical neurologist Dr. Dirk Proeckl. After discovering it, Allison became obsessed with sharing this technology with the world and helping people to reset their nervous systems with light.

The Vaporwave Iceberg Support Night Clerk Radio on Patreon The “iceberg” is a meme template that has been used in countless subcultures to describe the descent of a fan from casual to obsessive addict. The template typically generates memes that are either light-hearted in-jokes about a fandom or an unfortunate display of gatekeeping and elitism. Recently, Ross found an iceberg meme focused on vaporwave so of course we had to talk about it. What started as a couple of people overthinking a meme results in an interesting conversation about what it means to talk to other people about music and your interests.The Original r/Vaporwave ThreadThe complete list of albums discussed can be found at the above thread.Music SampledECCO DREAMS CreditsMusic by: 2MelloArtwork by: Patsy McDowellRoss on TwitterBirk on TwitterNight Clerk Radio on Twitter

Support Night Clerk Radio on Patreon PRE-ORDER 2MELLO'S NEW ALBUM: SOUNDS OF TOKYO-TO FUTURE To some artists, hypnagogic music is categorized as “classic”, “ambient” or “experimental.” To others, hypnagogic is thought of as adjacent to lofi hip hop or trip hop. In this episode, we explore two albums that span this diverse range of labels. However one tries to classify it, there's no denying that there are artists creating great music and calling it hypnagogic.

It's a question that has plagued the modern human since the late 20th century. Now with a post-Covid world with many having a taste of working from home, the office job lifestyle sounds as absurd as ever... And yet, it is still work, and therefore necessary for most people's survival. In this week's episode, we listen to Sounds For The Office by コディ (pronounced Kodi). This album is an amazing score of smooth jazz and late-night lofi that hooks you from the start. Kodi expresses a romanticized ideal of what it should feel like to work in an office. Why does this ideal even exist? Because it's an ideal we need to tell ourselves to get through the dread of having to spend our lives in an office to simply live. Ok, but trust us, this romanticized version of the office is something you'll definitely want to hear. ESPECIALLY if you work in one.Let's set sail for Sounds For The Office by コディ.

The concept of this particular album is extremely fascinating. 인터넷 쇼핑 (Ascension) is the musical expression of the dopamine cycle of online shopping.

Mitch Horowitz is a historian of alternative spirituality and one of today's most literate voices of esoterica, mysticism, and the occult. He is among the few occult writers whose work touches the bases of academic scholarship, national journalism, and subculture cred. Mitch is a writer-in-residence at the New York Public Library, lecturer-in-residence at the Philosophical Research Society in Los Angeles, and a PEN Award-winning historian whose books include Occult America; One Simple Idea: How Positive Thinking Reshaped Modern Life; and The Miracle Club. The Washington Post says Mitch “treats esoteric ideas and movements with an even-handed intellectual studiousness that is too often lost in today's raised-voice discussions.” He has discussed alternative spirituality across the national media and is collaborating with Emmy-nominated director Ronni Thomas on a feature documentary about the occult classic The Kybalion, shot on location in Egypt. Mitch received the Walden Award for Interfaith/Intercultural Understanding. The Chinese government has censored his work.
