Most spirituality was made by men for men. And so we wonder why it does not feel like it was made for us. Well honey, we are a little different. A little more beautiful. We have this thing called a womb and we just feel differently. And that is not a weakness. That is our spiritual pathway. In this solocast recorded from my home altar I am sharing the daily practices that have genuinely changed how I feel, how I show up and how I move through life. From flowers and tinctures to how I dress, how I decorate my home and why I believe the subtle feminine path creates more lasting change than any plant medicine ceremony. In this episode we explore:
Mythe suméro-babylonien millénaire, l'épopée de Gilgamesh nous parle de la destinée de l'homme qui se révèle à travers les épreuves quotidiennes. Dans nos cours, nous étudions les traductions des tablettes et des rouleaux sumériens, babyloniens et autres textes qui nous ont été légués par les peuples des IIIe et IVe millénaires avant notre ère. Dans cet héritage, nous trouvons des références au mythe de Gilgamesh.

Join David Lee Corbo (The Raven) and Top Lobsta on Nephilim Death Squad as Doc Brown from the Prometheus Lens Podcast joins them IN STUDIO for a mind-blowing deep dive into his upcoming book!Doc Brown connects the dots between the ancient Dragon Court, serpent seed Nephilim bloodlines, Cain's descendants, Scythian origins of vampires/werewolves/fairies, and the elite ruling class that traces back to the Anunnaki and Apkallu.They expose how menstrual blood rituals, grail maidens, dragon princesses, and “starfire” were used by this sub-human bloodline for power, rejuvenation, and kingship — including Solomon's 700 wives and 300 concubines feeding on pomegranates, lilies, and sticky mirth in the Song of Solomon.Topics include: adrenochrome and modern blood harvesting, Amalekites as “blood lickers,” red-haired/green-eyed Aryan Dragon Court elites, reptilian shapeshifters, Sobek, Inanna, Gilgamesh's vampiric mother, Viking berserkers, ancestor worship in tombs, the Ouroboros emblem, Sheila Na Gig, Melusine, Tuatha de Danann, Phoenician/Pharaonic inbreeding, Bohemian Grove druid rituals, and how all of this ties directly into current alien disclosure, hybridization programs, and biblical prophecy.Plus: why the Catholic Church demonized these real people as undead vampires, the scientific basis for blood rejuvenation (young blood studies), and why the Bible repeatedly warns against drinking blood.Doc Brown also discusses his previous book The Epic of Esau: Birth, Rite and Seed War, available with autographed copies, stickers, and bookmarks directly from him.

The Dangers of the Queen of Heaven | KIB 529 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing YouTube Description In this powerful Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake examine the biblical warning concerning the Queen of Heaven and her connection to ancient pagan worship, Jezebel, Mystery Babylon, counterfeit prosperity, sexual corruption, and the spiritual systems now working to reshape culture. Drawing from Jeremiah, Revelation, and the prophetic contrast between the Queen of Heaven and the Bride of Christ, this episode exposes how ancient Babylonian patterns continue to manifest through religious syncretism, occult symbolism, cultural seduction, and counterfeit spiritual authority. The remnant must learn to discern the difference between the counterfeit bride and the true Bride of Messiah. In these last days, covenant fidelity, holiness, repentance, and spiritual discernment are essential.
A STATUE of the goddess Athena has been discovered among the ruins of Laodicea—the site of the church Jesus said he would vomit out of his mouth. This is a fitting symbol for the world today. Athena is one manifestation of the ancient Sumerian goddess Inanna, a gender-fluid entity of sex and violence. If you've paid attention to the news over the last decade, you can see why we believe Inanna is the spirit of the age. Further, her descriptions in Sumerian texts are consistent with that of the woman in scarlet called Babylon the Great in Revelation 17. Although there has been pushback against the woke gender agenda by the Trump administration and a few other places around the world, Donald Trump won't be president forever. It's our mission to use this reprieve to share the gospel while we can. We also discuss the ever-increasing calls for “disclosure” of government UFO files and the tragic death of paranormal writer and broadcaster David Wilcock this week at the age of 53. Here's the video we referred to of the legendary Charles Laughton reciting the story of Shadrach, Meshech, and Abednego from the third chapter of Daniel on The Ed Sullivan Show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmIcQTA1iu0 Sharon's niece, Sarah Sachleben, is fighting stage 4 bowel cancer, and the medical bills are piling up.

How about an Easter Special? We won't be foolish and compare it to Ishtar, but we'll cover the gifts of the goddess because how Gnostic is that? I'm thrilled to talk to Dr. Joanna Kujawa and continue our discussion on her book, Alien Goddess: UFOs, AI, and the Goddesses of Ascension. Christ descended and rose, but so did many powerful goddesses, such as Inanna. We'll also discuss the Eleusinian Mysteries, the subtleties of the Gospel of Mary Magdalene, and Pistis Sophia. This talk isn't just fanciful history and theology, but will provide the spiritual tools to thrive in these darkening days.

Hard News on Friday with Tara Green and Rama Arjuna and guests New Earth Frequencies, Schumann Resonance, Ascension Symptoms and DNA Activation The provided content is a rich and multifaceted spiritual broadcast combining poetic invocation, Mayan cosmology, esoteric teachings on ascension, practical spiritual guidance, and community support information. It spans several speakers and topics centered on spiritual awakening, energetic shifts, DNA activation, and collective healing during a transformative period, specifically April 2026. The message integrates indigenous wisdom, metaphysical concepts, and practical advice for navigating intense ascension symptoms and global energetic changes. Core Themes and Key Insights Spiritual Awakening and Ascension Process: The content emphasizes a global and personal shift known as ascension, where humanity is undergoing profound energetic and molecular transformation. This process involves the awakening of dormant DNA strands, the expansion of consciousness into multidimensional awareness, and a dissolution of the old 3D identity structures. Mayan Cosmology and Galactic Guidance: The broadcast anchors its timing and spiritual guidance in the Mayan calendar, highlighting specific galactic tones, tribes, and energies for particular days. These energies are associated with release, creation, vision, transformation, healing, and renewal—offering a framework for spiritual practice and intention setting during the week. Energetic and Cosmic Influences in April 2026: The period is marked by intensified solar activity, Schumann resonance spikes, and geomagnetic disturbances, which act as catalysts for accelerated spiritual transformation and DNA activation at a cellular level. These cosmic influences are said to facilitate the embodiment of higher-dimensional light codes. Practical Spiritual Guidance for Navigating Ascension Symptoms: The speakers provide detailed descriptions of common ascension symptoms—such as emotional waves, ego death, brain fog, physical discomfort, and heightened sensitivity—and counsel on grounding, presence, nervous system regulation, and embodiment as keys to resilience. Community and Support: The program includes practical housekeeping and community support information, calling for listener donations to sustain the broadcast and assist individuals named Tara and Rama with their living expenses. It also provides contact details and encourages ongoing participation. Symbolism of Easter/Ostara and Resurrection: The broadcast frames the current moment as a time of resurrection, renewal, and the return of Christ consciousness, linked to the energies of Easter/Ostara and ancient goddess traditions (Inanna, Sekhmet, Demeter, Cerice). This symbolizes the death of old paradigms and the birth of a new, radiant self. Detailed Breakdown 1. Poetic Invocation and Spiritual Setting The opening is a poetic meditation on light rising from darkness, symbolizing awakening and renewal. It sets a sacred tone, evoking imagery of fire, light, and cosmic awakening, meant to inspire listeners to transition from sleep and shadow into conscious presence and illumination. 2. Mayan Record of Days and Galactic Energies Tone 11 - Blue Spectral Eagle: Keywords include releasing, liberation, dissolve; associated with visionary power, creation, and clarity of mind. Tribe 15 - The Eagle: Emphasizes vision, independence, and service to higher consciousness. Double Eagle and Double Serpent Days: These are powerful activation days linked to transformation and spiritual vision. 3. Ascension Symptoms and Energetic Upgrades (April 2026) Increased intensity in ascension symptoms such as emotional waves, ego death, brain fog, disassociation, and physical sensations (heat, tension, sensitivity). Activation of the pineal gland and nervous system rewiring to accommodate higher frequencies. Expansion of consciousness to hold multiple realities simultaneously—balancing the old 3D matrix with emerging New Earth frequencies. DNA activation involving awakening of 12-strand DNA from a previously limited two-strand structure, unlocking ancient soul memories and divine potential. These upgrades are described as challenging but necessary steps toward multidimensional embodiment and spiritual sovereignty. 4. Spiritual and Practical Guidance for Resilience Resilience is framed not as control over external events but as coming home to oneself through presence, embodiment, and nervous system regulation. Grounding practices include breath awareness, focusing on the heart and lower center of the body, and cultivating inner stillness. Importance of recognizing reactivity in the mind and moving beneath it into deeper awareness and embodiment. Encouragement to release judgment, fear, and illusions of separation to align with higher self and collective coherence. Emphasis on small, consistent practices of returning to presence as the foundation for resilience and conscious choice. Recognizes that ascension involves shedding old wounds, trauma, and programming, often triggering vulnerability and emotional release. 5. Symbolic and Cosmic Context The speakers link the current timeframe to Easter/Ostara and the resurrection motif, representing a time for spiritual rebirth and the return of Christ consciousness. Reference to ancient goddess energies such as Inanna, Sekhmet, Demeter, and Cerice signals a restoration of feminine divine power alongside the masculine Christ energy. The cosmic light pouring in from the sun and the violet flame are described as transformational energies capable of transmuting molecular and energetic structures. The narrative rejects old stories of sacrifice and suffering in favor of ascension as a joyous, sovereign process of awakening to radiant light. 6. Community Support and Housekeeping The broadcast is listener-supported, requiring weekly funding of approximately $184 for operational expenses. Additional support is provided to individuals named Rama and Tara for living expenses and bills totaling around $480 per week. Instructions for donations include PayPal and mailing addresses, as well as a GoFundMe link on rainbowroundtable.net. Communication emails are provided for coordination and gratitude is expressed repeatedly for the community's generosity. This broadcast is a comprehensive spiritual transmission designed to support listeners during a critical phase of planetary and personal transformation. It blends traditional indigenous wisdom, modern metaphysical insights, and practical guidance to assist in navigating the intense energetic shifts characteristic of April 2026. The focus is on embracing multidimensional embodiment, cultivating resilience through presence, and participating consciously in the collective ascension toward a new Earth reality. The repeated emphasis on community support and donation underscores the collaborative nature of this spiritual work. FAQ Q: What is the significance of April 2026 in this content? A: April 2026 is described as a period of intense energetic upgrade involving DNA activation, heightened solar and geomagnetic activity, and accelerated spiritual ascension. Q: What are the common ascension symptoms mentioned?

Aliveness: Earth Medicine and Deep Inner Work to Connect us With Who We Are
"Understanding is the booby prize!" - Susan Kacvinsky, Mythologist & WriterSusan and I explore how ancient stories about death, rebirth, and the suppression of women's power illuminate today's political chaos. Susan argues that mythology is actively being used to control people through fear and shame, and has been for centuries. At its heart, this is a conversation about finding solid ground when the world feels like it's falling apart.Highlights include:Understanding the patriarchy: The conversation weaves together mythology, history, psychology, and politics in a way that reframes familiar things (Christianity, patriarchy, American politics) through a rarely discussed lens. Listen to understand the development and persistence of the patriarchy.Naming what it's like to live now: the exhaustion of living under fear-based control, the loneliness of carrying emotions in a culture that punishes vulnerability, the frustration of a world that seems rigged.Grounded hope: Rather than despair or toxic positivity, the conversation offers a mythological perspective on cultural collapse and renewal. The Inanna descent, the three days of death before resurrection, makes difficult times feel meaningful and survivable.Warmth and aliveness: Susan and I delight in each other, and we hope that energy is contagious. We hope you feel like you are having tea with us, loosening a feel something loosening in you the permission to be curious, passionate, and undefended.A quiet challenge: We follow a thread about willingness, feeling feelings, and presence as a gentle but persistent invitation to stop managing life from the outside and start meeting it from within.Follow Susan at her Substack, Modern Mythology: https://modernmythology.substack.com/Join Alison's newsletter, Remembering Soul at http://www.alisoncrosthwait.com/remembering
Sancya Luz returned to the Law of Positivism podcast to discuss the Venus cycle and its significance in astrology. She explained the astronomical and mythological aspects of Venus, including her phases as an evening and morning star, and the Sumerian myth of Inanna's descent into the underworld. Sancya shared her personal experiences and insights gained from 8 years of ritual observation of the Venus cycle, emphasizing its connection to personal growth, values, and transformation. She discussed the current phase of Venus as an evening star and the potential for renewed creativity and abundance. Sancya also announced an upcoming program called "A Higher Love" to help participants align with the Venus cycle and explore their own natal Venus in an embodied way.Read more about the program here: https://www.pathoftherose.com/ahigherlove
I turned 40 during the year of the snake - and now as we welcome First Horse on this new moon eclipse - we're reminded to trust our body's wisdom, and cyclical rhythm, as the world starts speeding upLast year I held an in-person Inanna descent and rising Temple journey for sacred women's soul work — and little did I know snake medicine would guide my own descent personally - and as a feminine leader.This year of Snake has not been about speed. It has been about regeneration. About shedding identities, obligations, and patterns that no longer fit.In this episode, I speak to:What Snake medicine has taught me about feminine leadershipSlowing down in a world that rewards urgencyReleasing shame around sensitivity, neurodivergence, and capacitySimplifying business and life to align with your true geniusThe subtle ways sacred practitioners shrink to stay safeWhy trusting your own rhythm is revolutionaryWhat it means to enter the Fire Horse era without abandoning your bodyThis conversation is for coaches, healers, priestesses, facilitators, and women leading soul work who feel the edge of expansion — but know that expansion must be held differently now.As we move from Snake into Fire Horse, the invitation is not to forget Snake's initiations. It is to rise without abandoning your true wild self within.If this episode resonates, I invite you to honour this new moon eclipse between the cycles of Wood Snake to Fire Horse by downloading your free integration guide here.

Deconstruction of a Slur: How the Patriarchy Invented the "World's Oldest Profession" | Season 3, Episode 1The phrase “world's oldest profession” isn't history—it's a linguistic weapon. In the Season 3 premiere, we expose how this slur was forged to erase sacred feminine power and control the narrative of history itself.We journey to the ancient world, where women served as divine diplomats, ritual healers, and sovereign artists—from the Hors of Inanna's temple and the hierodules of Aphrodite to the Devadasis of India and the Qedeshah. This episode traces the "Great Unweaving": the systematic campaign by colonial patriarchy to reduce these complex spiritual vocations to a single, shamed physical act, creating the Madonna-whore dichotomy to fracture female identity.This episode explores:· The 16th-century invention of the word "prostitution" as a semantic weapon.· Sacred sexuality in Mesopotamia, Greece, and India as essential civic and spiritual infrastructure.· The original, powerful meanings of "virgin" (one-in-herself) and "whore" (from "Hor," the Beloved One).· How the colonial gaze pathologized holistic practice into stigmatized act.· Modern reclamation through voices like priestess Tina Heals.· The ongoing impact of this history on power, psychology, and culture today.This is a journey into herstory, a reclamation of power, and a call to decolonize our imagination.

In this powerful transmission, Natty channels four ancient goddesses: Shakti, Danu, Venus, and Ishtar, also known as Inanna. Together they bring a message for humanity, with a special focus on women and the rebalancing of feminine and masculine energies. This video explores the conflict between the sexes, the transmutation of old collective patterns, and how to consciously connect with these goddess energies for healing, creation, and transformation in this time of awakening.Natty BeattsAll courses can be found on her website www.nattybeatts.comhttps://www.youtube.com/c/MOREWithNattyhttps://www.instagram.com/nattybeatts/nattybeatts@gmail.comAmazon link for her book: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D4JVGGYCWolfgange-mail Wolfgang for appointments: https://www.wolfgangarndt8@gmail.comFree Pendulum Chart: https://www.toolsforascensionbywolfgang.com/resources/https://www.facebook.com/The-Gaia-Eagle-Wolf-Healing-Circlewebsite: https://www.toolsforascensionbywolfgang.com/YouTube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/@toolsforascensionbyWolfganghttps://www.facebook.com/The-Gaia-Eagle-Wolf-Healing-CircleInstagram https://www.instagram.com/wolfgangarndt1#goddessenergy #divinefeminine #channeling #shakti #inanna #ishtar #venusgoddess #danu #sacredfeminine #spiritualawakening #femininerising #masculinefemininebalance #ancientwisdom #consciousnessshift #energytransmission
ANGELA'S SYMPOSIUM 📖 Academic Study on Witchcraft, Paganism, esotericism, magick and the Occult
This episode offers a critical, historically grounded examination of Aphrodite as a trans-cultural religious phenomenon rather than a stable mythological figure. It traces the goddess's development from Near Eastern traditions associated with Astarte, Ishtar, and Inanna through her incorporation into Greek religion, where tensions between her martial, erotic, civic, and cosmic dimensions produced multiple and often contradictory forms of worship. The discussion then follows her Roman reconfiguration as Venus, focusing on the political and ideological implications of her role as divine ancestress and guarantor of imperial order.Combining literary sources, archaeological evidence, cult practice, and ritual calendars, the lecture analyses how Aphrodite functioned within ancient economies of desire, gender, power, and civic cohesion, as well as how regional cults negotiated her ambivalent capacity to generate both harmony and destruction. The final section examines modern resurrections of Aphrodite in Neopaganism, feminist spirituality, Hellenic reconstructionism, and Western esotericism, assessing how contemporary movements selectively reinterpret ancient materials.CONNECT & SUPPORT
Send us a textSuper excited to share my chat with Dr. Joanna Kujawa, the author of Alien Goddess: UFOs, AI, and Goddesses of Ascension and the Other Goddess: Mary Magdalene and the Goddesses of Eros and Secret Knowledge. Joanna shares with fascinating detail about the frightening rise of AI and the trans- and post-humanist agendas, and why we all need to understand what is happening. Describing her latest book, the Alien Goddess, Joanna draws parallels between what is happening in our world right now and ancient Goddess lore (in particular the stories of Inanna and Pistis Sophia, and the Eleusinian myths), provides an alternative perspective on UFOs, and reminds us not just of our divinity and organic intelligence, but of our power to keep choosing a future that is for the highest good of all living beings on our planet, every single moment.

Send Us a Message!The darkest night can be the clearest mirror. We step into solstice energy to explore what it really means to shed, integrate, and choose sovereignty—moving from the snake's inward season to the horse's bold momentum. We show how simple ceremonies become a powerful container for release and renewal. Drawing on Inanna's descent, we pass seven gates of letting go—judgment, rejection, persecution, betrayal, abandonment, fear, and doubt—until we meet the part of ourselves we've exiled. From there, integration is possible. We talk about becoming the observer in your healing so the body stops bracing, and how blacked-out memories can surface when capacity grows. In this episode, we explore:
By way of Lithuania to Australia to the Garden, comes Kristina Dryza. She's a master of archetypes and mythology with a new age flair. Of course, new age is really just ancient age. Dryza helps us with our goddesses. Especially, those of Greece and Egypt. We discuss Hera and Athena. A bit about Demeter and Aphrodite. A touch of Artemis. Toss in a little Romanization too.We go across that pond and visit Hathor and Isis. Then we make stops at Inanna and some others.But we really explore archetypal themes rather than textbook definitions and descriptions. It's another far ranging and fun conversation with a new friend.

Are you ready to question everything you thought you knew about ancient history and the role of women throughout time? What if I told you that for 90,000 years of human existence, we thrived in societies where women held the power—and it wasn't until the last few thousand years that everything changed?In this captivating conversation with Dr. Carla Ionescu, renowned ancient historian and founder of the Artemis Research Center, we explore the profound impact of goddess mythology on our understanding of feminine power today. Dr. Ionescu's expertise in ancient history and her groundbreaking research on Artemis reveals truths that have been hidden in plain sight for centuries.The Power of Rediscovering Our Real HistoryThis episode challenges the narratives we've been taught about women's capabilities throughout history. From owning land and running finances to teaching and writing poetry, women held positions of authority and respect that contradict everything we've been told about our "natural" limitations.Dr. Ionescu shares how her academic research led her down a fascinating path—from studying the Virgin Mary to discovering the complex layers of Artemis, and ultimately founding the Goddess Project podcast to make ancient wisdom accessible to modern audiences.Why Goddess Archetypes Matter Now More Than EverWe examine how ancient goddesses like Lilith, Inanna, and Artemis offer us permission to be multidimensional beings. These powerful figures weren't one-dimensional characters—they embodied the full spectrum of human experience, from nurturing protector to fierce warrior.The conversation reveals how figures like Lilith, who "chose liberation over Eden," represent our first models of women saying no and choosing autonomy over compliance. Rather than demonizing these choices, we can reclaim them as examples of authentic power.The Current AwakeningBoth Dr. Ionescu and I have witnessed an unprecedented surge in women seeking connection to goddess wisdom and ancient practices. From underground pagan groups in Greece finally gaining recognition to women creating sacred spaces in forests and deserts worldwide, something powerful is stirring.Topics Covered:

That ancient knowing that you've walked this path before… that your soul remembers the sacred vows, the devotion, the divine service. This episode will awaken that remembrance. In this transmission, Athina reveals the true meaning of The Priestess Path, what it really means to carry the Priestess Template versus embodying the archetype. You'll learn how to recognize if you hold this lineage within your soul, how to activate it, and how to walk the path of sacred service with integrity, devotion, and divine alignment. She shares her own experiences walking the Isis, Magdalene, and Pythia lineages and how each woman who carries the Priestess Template is here to restore ancient wisdom and serve humanity through divine love. If you've felt a soul-deep pull toward Isis, Inanna, or the Magdalene lineages, this conversation will feel like homecoming. You'll understand why you're being called, how to navigate the death-and-rebirth process that initiates you into higher levels of service, and what it truly means to embody the codes of the divine feminine. What We Cover: Discover the difference between the Priestess Archetype and the Priestess Template and how to know which one you hold. Learn how to recognize if you've lived as a Priestess in past lifetimes and are now being called to restore that lineage. Explore the sacred Priestess lineages of Isis, Magdalene, Inanna, and the Vestals and how each holds unique teachings of service and devotion. Understand why the Priestess Path requires initiation, integrity, and divine service beyond personal healing. Learn how to clear old vows and oaths from past lifetimes so you can walk this path in sovereignty and freedom.

If this episode resonates with your heart, comment below with your biggest realization, and don't forget to like, subscribe, and share this transmission so more Priestesses can remember who they are. Isis Ka® Practitioner Training Isis Ka® is a five-month multidimensional initiation into the Isis Priestess lineage and the highest expression of the Divine Feminine. It is both a sacred remembrance and a professional certification, a living mystery school where you are initiated, activated, and trained to embody, channel, and serve through the original frequency of Goddess Isis. This is a temple of transformation, a reclamation of your priestesshood, your power, and your purpose. Across three sacred portals, you are initiated into a full energetic rebirth that unites your body, soul, and service. Portal One: The Path of Remembrance — Priestesshood Initiation & Feminine Healing Your journey begins with your initiation into the Isis Priestess Lineage. Here, you reconnect with the ancient current of Isis herself, the lineage of healing, power, and unconditional love that you have walked across lifetimes. Through energetic transmissions and deep healing, you will dissolve the layers that have silenced the feminine: the mother and father wounds, the sisterhood wound, the distortion of the masculine and feminine within. You will awaken the Ka Body, your divine energetic architecture, and begin to embody your soul gifts, psychic abilities, and feminine essence in ways that feel both grounded and transcendent. You step into the energy of the Priestess, whole, sovereign, radiant, and ready to serve. Portal Two: The Path of Embodiment — Isis Ka® Practitioner Training & Sacred Business In this phase, remembrance becomes mastery. You are trained and certified as an Isis Ka® Practitioner, learning to facilitate Ka Activations and energy healing sessions for others. You'll be guided to offer one-on-one or group Isis Ka® sessions, weave in Blue Lotus and temple-arts ceremony, and lead as a confident channel of the Isis frequency. You will also receive high-level mentorship on feminine-led business, creating offerings that are birthed from your womb, pricing from power, and structuring your sacred work in ways that honor your energy and amplify your abundance. This is where your gifts move from personal transformation into divine service, where you begin to lead, create, and be compensated through devotion, not depletion. Portal Three: The Path of Creation — Sexual Alchemy & Womb Magic The final initiation brings your full embodiment online. Here, you enter the mysteries of Isis Sexual Temple Arts, learning to work with sexual energy as a force of healing, manifestation, and creation. Through womb alchemy, yoni activation, and the integration of the sacred masculine and feminine, you will clear ancestral imprints, ignite your life-force energy, and open new channels of pleasure, power, and divine creativity. This is where you learn to manifest through your body, lead from your sensuality, and create your life and business as living art, an extension of your sacred essence. You are initiated into a living lineage. You leave this temple changed, anchored in your purpose, embodied in your gifts, and equipped to serve as a professional practitioner of the Isis Ka® frequency. Your energy will expand. Your gifts will come online. Your life will begin to reflect the truth of who you've always been, a Priestess, a channel, a healer, and a leader of light. This is Isis Ka®.

AI, UFO's, Ascension... Alien Goddess: Dr. Joanna Kujawa What if the beings we call “aliens” are not invaders from other worlds, but messengers from higher realms of consciousness, warning us against the dead-end path we are currently racing toward? What if the true threat to humanity is not an alien invasion, but rather our surrender to machines? And what if the antidote to both challenges resides not in technology, but in wisdom we abandoned long ago? What is the nature of UFO experiences?' Is there a connection between AI, UFO, and the esoteric Goddess Traditions of Inanna, the Eleusinian Mysteries, The Gospel of Mary Magdalene, and the Pistis Sophia? Alien Goddess enters this urgent conversation with a perspective no one else is offering. Drawing on contemporary accounts of contact phenomena, esoteric texts, and ancient mythologies, it asks what happens when a civilization replaces the sacred with the synthetic. Who becomes the architect of human destiny when the soul is written out of the equation?

What happens when you stop analyzing the eighth house and start walking into it? We invite you into a guided descent—part myth, part meditation—through sex, death, shared resources, and the hidden currents that shape intimacy and power. Recorded close to midnight, this journey leans on feeling more than theory, letting the night world rewrite how we meet fear, trust, and desire.We unpack the anxiety around “empty houses” by showing why no house is truly empty and how the cusp and its ruler speak volumes. From there, we cross the threshold with stories: Persephone pulled below, Inanna choosing the descent, Hercules learning that force fails underground, and Orpheus softening the gates with song. Each myth becomes a method for real life—how to let go, how to be guided, how to bring music to heavy doors. Along the way we visit the Necromanteion, an ancient temple of the dead, and reflect on ancestor contact as a form of practical divination.This house is where intimacy strips our persona, where shared finances and entanglements test honesty, and where the body's quiet signals tell the truth before our minds can. We explore Reich and Freud on eros and death to ask whether life force is fighting an enemy or simply frees itself when we stop blocking it. Paradoxically, by facing mortality we recover appetite—a warm, steady desire to be here now. And when we come back up, the ninth house opens with clearer meaning because we earned our perspective below.If you're ready to feel into the eighth—beyond clichés and fear—press play, bring a journal, and let a slower rhythm lead.

On the Secret Witch Show today our guest is Carly Mountain. Carly is a sought-after psychotherapist specialising in sex, embodiment, rites of passage and relationships. A seasoned initiatory guide, yoga teacher, breathworker and writer, her work has evolved over twenty years of sacred mythopoetic practice and space holding. She is author of Descent & Rising: Women's Stories & the Embodiment of the Inanna Myth. She lives in Sheffield, England with her husband and two daughters. In this episode we explore how descent becomes a sacred initiation into the Feminine - and how death, shadow, and rebirth are required for the Witch to fully embody who she is. Carly shares the medicine of descent and rising - and what it means to embody naked power - shedding the old skins of shame and fear to reclaim our body, pleasure and powerful truth. Together, we speak about how darkness is a calling, the Witch's descent into the underworld, and how these initiations become portals to remembering who we truly are. What You'll Learn from this Episode: Descent is sacred - a journey of initiation that strips away what is false and reveals the truth of who we are beneath the surface The Inanna myth reminds us that the underworld isn't punishment - it's a descent into the body, the shadow, and the truth that waits in the dark The body is the oracle - when we listen to its trembling, pleasure, and pulse, we find the wisdom that's been buried beneath shame Naked power lives in surrender - when we stop performing and meet life with presence, love and eros begin to move freely again The snake teaches us to shed what no longer fits - each skin we release becomes an act of remembering Descent and rising are inseparable - the more we're willing to descend into truth, the more powerfully we rise in love.

Ever felt the ground give way beneath your life and, somehow, found renewal waiting in the dark? We go there with astrologer Melanie Reinhart as we explore the Eighth House—where loss, endings, and the mysteries of descent turn into a deeper kind of aliveness.We begin with a radical reframing of “death” as the series of mini-deaths that define a lifetime: the mask that falls away, the role that ends, the image we can no longer carry. Melanie brings in Asclepian dream rites to show how healing arrives when we stop managing and start listening. Dreams don't just offer messages; sometimes the dream is the medicine. From Persephone and Inanna to Hermes the psychopomp, myth becomes a living map for honoring thresholds, accepting uncertainty, and noticing the signs that mark true initiation.Intimacy takes center stage as a gateway into the Eighth House. Not all sex is eighth-house, and not all eighth-house intimacy is sexual—what matters is transformation through real energetic exchange. We contrast this with polite arrangements that function but never descend. Along the way, we tackle death denial through the story of Sisyphus: chain up death and you lose meaning. Accept the descent and something winged rises—Pegasus from Medusa's body—foreshadowing the Ninth House's authentic meaning-making that cannot be faked or fast-tracked.This is a guide for moving from the illusion of separateness toward the radiance of love. It's practical, too: don't dig aggressively for shadows; let the underworld emerge. Create sacred space, honor fatigue, keep a journal, and treat dreams as sacred visitors. If you're navigating grief, midlife, or a season of deep change, this conversation offers language, myth, and gentle practices to help you walk on the soul's terms.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who's in transition, and leave a review to help others find these conversations.

Let's get ready to rumble against that wickedness in high places. Dr. Joanna Kujawa joins me to discuss her new book, Alien Goddess: UFOs, AI, and the Goddesses of Ascension. We'll discover if the beings called aliens are spiritual entities, visitors from the stars, or possibly ourselves from the future. These anomalous encounters frequently involve a female, goddess-like figure who conveys an alarming message about humanity entering a perilous path. The warning concerns the dark temptation of Artificial Intelligence, which promotes ideologies suggesting that consciousness is akin to computer programming and promises (bullshit) mechanical immortality. The gnosis-antidote to this situation is encoded within ancient wisdom, specifically the mythologies of descent and ascent—such as The Descent of Inanna, the Eleusinian Mysteries, and Pistis Sophia—which offer tools for spiritual ascension.

Dumuzid, the oldest known exemplar of the dying and rising king, is also in many ways the most exceptional. Lover of Inanna, he was apparently quite done with her passionate antics and celebrated when she died, only to be dragged into the underworld for his impiety.

Tristan Hughes is joined by Dr. Kate Lister to take us on a journey through the fascinating history of Innana, an ancient goddess of love, war, fertility, and political power. They delve into her evolution from a humble agricultural deity to one of the most powerful and complex figures in ancient mythology, revered in Mesopotamia and beyond. This one goddess influenced millennia of religious and cultural history, possibly extending even to Persephone and the Virgin Mary.MOREPersephone: Queen of the UnderworldSex Work in Pompeii with Kate ListerPresented by Tristan Hughes.

Happy Autumnal Equinox! Today on the show, Jennifer Mulak and I share our conversation with Dr. Catherine Svehla @drcsvehla ✨ a storytelling scholar and consultant in the field of mythology/depth psychology, artist, creativity coach, outdoorswoman, lover of the Mysteries, mentor in the mythic life and host of the Myth Matters Podcast. She helps people reframe their questions or their story, and explore the connection between being true to oneself and spiritual growth. She believes there's an inner knowing, a source of direction and truth in your psyche that's waiting for you to rediscover it. Dr. Svehla will be at the Arts Society of Kingston this Thursday, September 25th from 7-9pm for a workshop supporting folks to go deeper into the myth of the Transformation and the Myth of Inanna Workshop where folks will be invited to "EXPLORE THE ROLE OF TRANSFORMATION IN YOUR LIFE THROUGH A GUIDED JOURNEY INTO THE ANCIENT MYTH OF THE GODDESS INANNA AND SEED YOUR PSYCHE FOR DEEPER ENGAGEMENT WITH THE GREATER MYSTERIES RITUAL-PERFORMANCE AT WIDOW JANE MINE." Previous knowledge of the myth is not required.During our conversation, Dr. Svehla takes us through her own journey from confusion to creativity and how myth and consciousness helped to shape her own clarity and the way in which she now supports others. Her dissertation on the archetypal exploration of The Law of Attraction in American self-help culture folds into our conversation as we unravel some of the myth of unlimited human potential. Two hours was not nearly enough time to explore these rich topics that she surfaces for herself and others in her work. We're still in deep contemplation...Jennifer and I close the show with some sharing on the Equinox and the transition into and through this new season.Today's show was engineered by Ian Seda from Radiokingston.org.Our show music is from Shana Falana!Feel free to email me, say hello: she@iwantwhatshehas.org** Please: SUBSCRIBE to the pod and leave a REVIEW wherever you are listening, it helps other users FIND IThttp://iwantwhatshehas.org/podcastITUNES | SPOTIFYITUNES: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/i-want-what-she-has/id1451648361?mt=2SPOTIFY:https://open.spotify.com/show/77pmJwS2q9vTywz7Uhiyff?si=G2eYCjLjT3KltgdfA6XXCAFollow:INSTAGRAM * https://www.instagram.com/iwantwhatshehaspodcast/FACEBOOK * https://www.facebook.com/iwantwhatshehaspodcast
"Not just about crowns and glitter and farting unicorns"This episode is a dark conversation for the dark half of the year. The witches sit down with Iberian Shamaness, Priestess, and author Ness Bosch to talk about her work, her book Sacred Bones, Magic Bones, and the deep magick of inner work and symbolic sacrifice. Living in Scotland and teaching internationally, Ness brings a grounded and ancient perspective to the conversation.Together, they explore powerful mythic figures like Persephone, Inanna, Cailleach, and Ariadne; goddesses who carry wounds and wisdom, and who show us how to walk willingly into the shadows of transformation. This episode is full of the intensity of the season. The three witches discuss the themes of sacrifice, symbolic death, and of letting go to make room for something new when the light returns.Prepare to be challenged, comforted, and called inward as Ness shares insights on spiritual death, ancestral healing, and the fierce power of dark goddesses, even when wounded. It's an episode about finding sacredness in surrender, and magic in the bones we carry.National Sexual Assault Hotline Text HOPE to 64673 to get support directly on your device.

The Great Mother is one of the most primordial archetypes, and one today that has lost some of her original potency. We either tend to wash away her intensity by reducing her to "creativity" or "nurture" or project her power outwards, turning it into the witch, the monster, the devourer.In this episode, Mariana is joined again by Alyssa Polizzi to explore the true potency of the Great Mother, both in her majesty and terror. They draw from a host of stories and mythic figures including Demeter, Tiamat, Inanna, Vasilisa, and Psyche to trace the outline of the Great Mother in her true archetypal complexity.In our dream interpretation section, we explore a listener's dream of encountering a woman in white at the edge of a forest.ANNOUNCEMENTSMariana's ARCHETYPAL TAROT SCHOOL is still open until September 6th: https://persephonessister.com/archetypal-tarot-schoolRegister for Alyssa Polizzi's upcoming workshop The Empress Reimagined: https://alyssapolizzi.substack.com/p/monthly-empress-reimaginedAnd join her Substack The Artemisian w/ a 15% discount: https://www.theartemisian.com/sorormysticaCheck out Mariana's upcoming class Princess, Priestess, Goddess, Witch: A 4-part exploration of the archetypes of Feminine power in Western consciousness: https://persephonessister.com/ppgw/

Synopsis: Sargon of Akkad forges the world's first Empire. “After Enlil's baleful glare Had slain Kish like the Bull of Heaven, Had slaughtered house and land of Uruk in the dust, like that monster bull, And Enlil had then and there given Sargon, king of Agade, Lordship of Uruk, kingship of Kish, From the lowlands to the upper regions, Then did holy Inanna busy herself to build Agade, the temple city, as her sublime dwelling, In Ulmash let her throne be set.” – The curse of Agade Map of SW Eurasia: https://audio.ancientworldpodcast.com/A5_Map.png Map of the Akkadian Empire (by Simeon Netchev, World History Encyclopedia): https://www.worldhistory.org/uploads/images/15457.png?v=1748640186-0 Episode Images: https://www.flickr.com/photos/75506172@N07/albums/72177720326959608/ References and Further Reading: https://audio.ancientworldpodcast.com/A5_References.pdf Please contact advertising@airwavemedia.com if you would like to advertise on this podcast.

In this episode, we go deeper into the ancient feminine power they tried to bury.Before patriarchy rewrote the narrative, women were seen as sacred. Goddesses like Inanna, Hathor, Lilith, Aphrodite, Oshun, and Shakti weren't just symbols, they represented fertility, sensuality, leadership, wisdom, and divine authority. But over time, their stories were distorted or erased altogether.This episode is a reminder that your power has ancient roots. We're not reclaiming anything new, we're remembering what they tried to make us forget.
Kelli Scarr is an American singer, composer, and multi-instrumentalist based in New York's Hudson Valley. She is also the founder of Vera Jean Music, a pioneering record label dedicated to championing the talents of women artists over the age of 40.Raised in Northern California, Scarr's musical journey began in church, eventually leading her to Berklee College of Music. Over the years, she has woven her way through an eclectic range of projects, from fronting the bands Moonraker and Salt & Samovar to a significant collaboration writing, recording, and touring with Moby. Her artistry extends into film scoring, and she earned an Emmy nomination for her score to the HBO documentary In A Dream (2008) and has composed music for dozens of films, TV shows, and commercials. Notable projects include the documentaries Advanced Style and Far Western, and the forthcoming After All (2025), for which she composed the score and contributed six original songs.As a solo artist, Scarr has released three albums—Piece (2010), Dangling Teeth (2012), and one of Pam's all-time favorite albums, No Rush (2021)—establishing herself as a singular voice in atmospheric, deeply emotive songwriting. Her fourth album, Greater Mysteries,is out on this Friday, June 13, and marks a new creative chapter which draws on timeless mythic journeys to the underworld, and it is pulsing, potent, and sublime. This album serves as an invitation into the initiatory cycle of transformation—where endings become beginnings, and something new is ready to emerge.Though Kelli's work has spanned format and musical style, all of her projects embrace a sense of experimentation, improvisation, and sacred seeking through song. On this episode, Kelli discusses how the myth of Inanna inspired her new album, the power of song channeling and sonic embodiment, and the transformational way music connects us to the universe.Pam also talks about the divine link between songs and spells, and answers a listener question about using magic to rekindle her creativity.Songs featured in the episode are all from Greater Mysteries by Kelli Scarr:“Knowing is the Call”“Pneuma”“The Yes That Leads”Check out the video of this episode over on YouTube (and please like and subscribe to the channel while you're at it!)Our sponsors for this episode are UBU Skills, Mixed Color, Sister Temperance Tarot, Mineralogy Project, BetterHelp, LOGOS Candles, and Black Phoenix Alchemy LabWe also have print-on-demand merch like Witch Wave shirts, sweatshirts, totes, stickers, and mugs available now here, and all sorts of other bewitching goodies available in the Witch Wave shop.And if you want more Witch Wave, please consider supporting us on Patreon to get access to detailed show notes, bonus Witch Wave Plus episodes, Pam's monthly online rituals, and more!
