This week on The Conscious Consultant Hour, Sam welcomes Peter DeBenedittis, Ph.D., channel, Oneness Trainer, and longtime student of the awakening path.In the early 2010s, Peter made four month-long journeys to Oneness University in India, founded by the avatar Sri Bhagavan, where he was trained as a Oneness Trainer and received what he calls the gift of Awakening. Over the years that followed, he taught dozens of Oneness classes and organized meditations that passed the awakening energies along to thousands of New Mexicans. Together with his beloved, Tracy Juechter, Peter has hosted a weekly meditation circle since 2011, one that continues to this day and in 2019 formed itself into a Group Consciousness.Peter's path has been shaped by an unusual series of encounters at some of the world's most powerful sites. On the 11.11.11 Crystal Skulls World Mysteries Tour in Colorado, he touched a five-thousand-year-old crystal skull and dropped to the ground, receiving what he was told was a download that would unfold in time. In 2013, on a tour of Machu Picchu and Lake Titicaca with Lee Carroll, he made contact with a group of Pleiadians near the Sunken Temple at Tiwanaku in Bolivia.He was later initiated to transmit the Wholeness Blessing sourced from Archangel Michael, and studied for years with GW Hardin on the science and math behind Inherent Thriving, Info-Looping, and the Gatekeeper Effect. A 2021 Quantum Healing Hypnosis Therapy session connected him more deeply with a Pleiadian being called Mira, part of a team working with humans upgrading their psychic and spiritual gifts. It was on a month-long tour of sacred sites in Egypt with Lee Carroll in 2022 that his channeling abilities truly opened. Offering sessions to fellow travelers on the Nile, he tested his gift with people accustomed to hearing from world-renowned channels, and returned home to Santa Fe called to bring this work into the world through becomingawesome.one.Together, Sam and Peter explore what it means to become a genuine bridge between the seen and the unseen, and how the awakening path continues to unfold long after the initial opening. They discuss the years of preparation that shaped Peter's channeling, the wisdom of the Sacred Higher Self as the true source he now works with in sessions, and the way sacred sites, group consciousness, and daily meditation weave together into a living practice. This episode is an invitation for anyone who has quietly sensed their own psychic and spiritual gifts to trust what they know, and to remember that the guidance we most need is often waiting on the other side of our own listening.Tune in and share your own questions and comments about connecting to your own higher self our YouTube livestream or on our Facebook page.https://app.becomingawesome.one?fpr=sam99&fp_sid=tcc Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Trump floats changing New Mexico's name to "New America." A business poll shows how businesses feel about gross receipts tax (they really don't like it). ABQ Journal polling finds plurality of New Mexicans support paying legislators. New Mexicans don't think the economy is very good. Inflation, cost of living, are top concerns for New Mexicans. Overwhelmingly New Mexicans support a data center moratorium. Haaland finally agrees to debate Hull on October 8. National report says New Mexico teachers have 2nd-highest morale in the nation. Paul shares a bit about his own experiences on 9/11 and the 25th anniversary.
A governor debate gets “announced” before both campaigns agree, and that small-looking scheduling story turns into a bigger question: who is actually serving the voter, the campaigns or the public? We unpack the back-and-forth around a proposed Deb Haaland vs Greg Hull debate, why TV stations don't want a credibility mess, and why pushing debates past September can feel like a deliberate strategy when early voting is already on the calendar. If you care about New Mexico governor race coverage, debate rules, and what accountability looks like on camera, this is the kind of inside-baseball that still affects real outcomes. Then we shift to the New Mexico CD2 race with fresh polling that shows just how tight it is between Gabe Vasquez and Greg Cunningham, and why this could be the closest result on the ballot. From there, we follow the thread that quietly shapes everything: energy prices. Diesel costs, refining capacity, global supply constraints, and geopolitical tension all roll downhill into grocery bills and shipping prices, and we talk through why consumer confidence can move faster than any economic report. We also dig into SNAP food stamp reform and what it means when states finally have financial incentive to reduce errors and verify eligibility. After that, we call out the anatomy of a modern political hit piece through a Wall Street Journal story on Senator John Fetterman and the power of anonymous sourcing. And yes, we end where we always seem to end: with something you didn't expect, including a report about parasitic worms in tuna and a Sunday Game Day segment where a bear goes after the camera in Angel Fire.

There's no question that fentanyl is killing New Mexicans. But how is it getting onto our streets, and what can law enforcement do to stop it? Chris and Gabby talk with Albuquerque Public Safety Director and former FBI Special Agent in Charge, Raul Bujanda, about the city's fight against fentanyl and the role of the border in drug trafficking. Bujanda shares his perspective on what law enforcement is doing to combat a crisis that continues to devastate communities. We also dig into a recent Associated Press investigation that raised troubling questions about DEA agents allowing massive fentanyl shipments to continue moving through New Mexico as part of investigations into larger trafficking networks. The reporting has sparked public outrage and calls for investigations and accountability from state leaders. When does a law-enforcement strategy designed to catch major traffickers put the public at risk? And who's responsible for protecting New Mexicans from deadly fentanyl? Thanks for listening.

Crypto or Bitcoin ATMs are everywhere, including laundromats and grocery stores across New Mexico. But as scammers increasingly use cryptocurrency to steal money from victims, cities and states are taking a closer look at the machines. New Mexicans reported millions in cryptocurrency fraud losses last year, and Albuquerque City Councilors are now considering an ordinance to remove crypto ATMs from city limits. Chris and Gabby dive into the topic with Brian Watson, a Community Outreach Specialist with R.O.S.E. and former IRS Criminal Investigator. Watson explains how crypto ATM scams work, why scammers often target older adults, and the devastating losses he's seen firsthand. How is AI changing the way scammers target financial information? What can you do to protect yourself and your family? Are crypto ATMs a convenience, or a tool scammers are exploiting? Thanks for listening.

I interviewed Sarah Silverblatt-Buser about Collective Body on Friday, August 29, 2025 at Venice Immersive in Venice, Italy. Here is the story synopsis for Collective Body: "Collective Body is an interactive, virtual reality experience that invites us to meet ourselves and each other through movement. Set in the middle of a New Mexican storm, participants are guided to rediscover their first ways of engaging with the world, symbolising formative life events that culminate in a shared exploration of our embodied selves. These key moments — beginning alone, discovering the unfamiliar, first encounters, and joyfully moving together — represent how our personal and collective stories are written through movement." Here are the contextual domains that are explored: Gain deeper insight into self and Identity [1] and others [7] through embodied movement [1] and dance [5], but also these various archetypal [9] identities [1] within the context of a cultural context [11] - lots of self [1] and other [7] dialectics. "Meet ourselves and each other through movement." Here is the Elemental Center of Gravity: 1st Center of Gravity of Earth Element / Environmental and Embodied Presence: Embodied Dance experiences, with avatars that are attuned to how your move your body. Set in a New Mexican storm. Avatars have an abstract and symbolic quality to them. Designed to "open us to different sensations of our physical world while creating a new perception of ourselves as individuals within a collective."2nd Center of Gravity of Fire Element / Active Presence: Emphasis on MOVEMENT and IMPROV -- The specific way in which you move your is analyzed and classified3rd Center of Gravity of Air Element / Mental and Social Presence: Multiplayer and social experience. There's a way to connect to others through movement. The archeteypal classification of the movement is split up into a 4x4 set of categories of 4 different elements (earth, air, water, fire), and then 4 different musical themes that also mirror an increasing amount of energy of the phases of matter. (Solid, Liquid, Gas, Plasma)4th Center of Gravity of Water Element / Emotional Presence: Strong Emphasis on MUSIC. The Piece itself is a bit more driven by embodied actions and emergenct social dynamics than narrative or story per se. The piece is more about the relational dynamics to yourself and others that unfolds over the course of five different stages 1. BEGINNING ALONE: Discover our world through our hands 2. DISCOVER OUR FIRST MOVEMENTS: Learn how to take our first steps 3. FIRST ENCOUNTERS: How we learn how to move with other people. 4. FIND YOUR AUTHENTIC MOVEMENT: How we learn to reflect and find our own kind of movement. 5. JOYFULLY MOVE TOGETHER: How we dance and join together with other people Archetypal Themes and Character Explored: Movement and Social Dynamics - Invidivual versus Collective Journey: "Collective Body asks what it means to experience ourselves in relation to others — without words and beneath the surface. How does a body hold histories over time? How do those histories get expressed and interpreted? How do many bodies create their own ecology?" Artist Statement: "The experience uses virtual reality to open us to different sensations of our physical world while creating a new perception of ourselves as individuals within a collective. We are first guided to reappropriate movement and dancing in our own body, to rediscover our first ways of engaging with the world, before we meet the silent part of ourselves that we express through movement. This otherwise ephemeral self is generated using an algorithmic system that analyses our movement throughout the first two scenes. This self takes the form of an avatar, assigned out of sixteen possible avatars, and is represented as a natural element accompanied by a musical theme. Once we meet this version of ourselves, we are invited to meet another person, then join the rest of the participants, encountering different ways that others exist through movement, mixing together to create a final moment of joyful, collective discovery in dance. Collective Body asks what it means to experience ourselves in relation to others — without words and beneath the surface. How does a body hold histories over time? How do those histories get expressed and interpreted? How do many bodies create their own ecology?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1uOAEL7Do8 This is a listener-supported podcast through the Voices of VR Patreon. Music: Fatality
On this week's Tipping Point NM Paul and Wally discuss numerous issues facing New Mexicans. Starting off, while RGF was "wrong" that ABQ City Councilor Bassan would make a third push for her massive GRT increase to put it on this fall's ballot, in reality fellow Councilor Klarissa Peña is introducing the exact same plan. NM Dems are shifting their primary, but who pays the bill? There are numerous additional logistical challenges. In the spirit of a David Letterman Paul and Wally go through the Top Ten reasons to eliminate NM's personal income tax. New Mexico's House GOP continues to ask (as do we) "what about the special session on rebates/income tax elimination?" The Wall Street Journal covers NM's $75 billion permanent fund in a thoughtful way. People are talking about a state takeover of PNM. What's the point?
New Mexico is full of smart, hardworking people, so why does the state keep settling for broken systems and bottom-of-the-list outcomes? We bring in Gregg Hull, the longtime mayor of Rio Rancho and the Republican nominee for governor, to make the case that competence is a policy and that Rio Rancho's track record can scale statewide if leaders stop chasing sound bites and start delivering measurable results.We talk through the toughest issues voters bring up first: crime, fentanyl, homelessness, and behavioral health. Hull lays out a “community solutions” approach that pairs enforcement with the resources cities actually need, and we press him on what a governor can do when local leaders claim they've got it handled while residents see open-air drug use and encampments growing. We also dig into bail reform and the political reality of working with a legislature that often resists undoing its own unintended consequences.Then we shift to flashpoints that shape trust in government: sanctuary city policy and immigration enforcement, voter ID and election integrity, and the CYFD controversy involving a 15-year-old sent across the border unescorted. Hull calls for a full investigation and a top-to-bottom review focused on child safety first. We close with the economic and education agenda, including eliminating the New Mexico state income tax, auditing fraud and waste, defending oil and gas as a major driver of revenue, and pushing early literacy plus career technical education so students can graduate into real opportunity.If you want more conversations like this, subscribe, share the episode, and leave a review so more New Mexicans can find the show.Website: https://www.nodoubtaboutitpodcast.com/Twitter: @nodoubtpodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/NoDoubtAboutItPod/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/markronchettinm/?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ%3D%3D

(Courtesy Trust for Public Land) California is moving forward with what could become the second largest tribal land return in state history. The California State Water Resources Control Board has approved $25 million in financing to help the Quartz Valley Indian Reservation acquire nearly 40,000 acres of the Scott River headwaters in Northern California’s Klamath River Basin. The acquisition would return ancestral lands that include salmon-bearing streams, cultural sites, forests, and critical drinking water resources to tribal stewardship. Quartz Valley Indian Reservation Chairman Leonard Lincoln says the project marks a truly historic moment for the tribe. He says for a tribe that was once terminated and subsequently confined to just 2,000 acres, reclaiming nearly 40,000 acres of our ancestral territory is a monumental victory that secures our sovereignty and our people. The acquisition is being supported by Trust for Public Land and the current landowner, EFM Investments and Advisory. Trust for Public Land says returning the land to tribal stewardship will help protect clean water, restore salmon habitat, improve forest health, and strengthen climate resilience throughout the Klamath River Basin while expanding opportunities for cultural access, ecological restoration, and conservation jobs.

(Courtesy National Park Service) The Trump administration is considering a complete or partial reversal of a 20-year federal mineral ban on new oil and gas leasing that protects New Mexico’s Greater Chaco region, and time for public comment is running out. Roz Brown explains. The Department of the Interior says revoking protections on a landscape that holds cultural importance for Indigenous people could boost oil production by more than two million barrels over the next 20 years. Jesse Deubel from the New Mexico Wildlife Federation says despite the importance of oil and gas to New Mexicans’ livelihood and the state’s economy, some things are priceless. “It’s really important to understand that there are some places where it is absolutely inappropriate to risk destruction of sacred sites for the idea that there might be some amount of oil and gas underneath that mineral estate.” The administration is looking at three options: keep a current 10-mile buffer in place, cut it to five miles, or revoke it entirely, which could destroy artifacts and architecture. It argues maximizing fossil fuel production through increased drilling could lower utility and fuel costs and bolster national security. The public has until this Wednesday to comment online through the Bureau of Land Management’s NEPA web page. The Federation’s Andrew Black, a public lands field director in New Mexico, says there is a good reason Chaco is designated a UNESCO World Heritage site — one of only 24 such sites in the U.S. “9th to 13th century complex Pueblo cultural settlements with multi-story houses, sacred sites… the architecture is truly unbelievable. Uh, just from that perspective alone, it is remarkable.” Last week, the New Mexico congressional delegation called on Interior Secretary Doug Burgum to extend the public comment period to 90 days, conduct tribal consultation, and allow extensive public engagement before making a decision. Black says it is the least that should be done. “After various archaeological surveys and studies, that area was determined to have the greatest amount of cultural resources within it. More study and more examination and more analysis needed to be done within that buffer zone.” The buffer zone is home to bobcats, pronghorn, elk and deer, coyotes, bald eagles, small mammals, and various reptiles. New Mexico Senator Martin Heinrich calls on the Interior Department to reconsider its oil and gas proposal and honor the public land order approved by the Biden administration in 2023.

A resilient public health system starts with investing in the people who make it work. In this PHIG Impact Report, director for the Office of Training and Development at the New Mexico Department of Health, Shadee Lauer, discusses how Public Health Infrastructure Grant (PHIG) funding is helping the state recruit, retain, and develop its workforce through data-driven strategies and innovative professional development programs. Lauer shares how New Mexico used employee survey data to shape initiatives including paid internships, tuition reimbursement, leadership academies, recruitment and retention toolkits, and a train-the-trainer model that strengthens both the workforce and the communities it serves. She also explains how these investments are creating long-term organizational capacity while helping public health professionals build rewarding careers that benefit New Mexicans for years to come. This work is supported by funds made available from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), National Center for STLT Public Health Infrastructure and Workforce, through OE22-2203: Strengthening U.S. Public Health Infrastructure, Workforce, and Data Systems grant.

Bob Perls from the forward Party joins Bob Clark to discuss their pending lawsuit. New Mexico is a one party state and we need competition. 80% of the political races in NM are uncompetitive.

Join Paul Gessing of the Rio Grande Foundation on ABQ Connect as he breaks down some of the biggest policy and economic issues facing New Mexico. Paul shares highlights from his recent trip to Florida, including a visit connected to a famous New Mexican, and offers insight into the debate over proposed $250 taxpayer rebates, calls for income tax reform, and the state’s growing $75 billion permanent funds. He also discusses economic development, the future of data centers in New Mexico, public campaign financing, the Rail Runner’s 20-year legacy, and why he believes an abundance mentality should extend beyond government and into the private sector. It’s a timely conversation on New Mexico’s future, finances, and public policy. The post Paul Gessing appeared first on ABQ Connect.
On this week's Tipping Point conversation Paul and Wally discuss: Paul's family vacation in Florida including a trip to Cape Canaveral and the Kennedy Space Center where he "met" a famous New Mexican. The Rail Runner turns 20 years old today. What's the latest on $250 refunds? Will MLG call a special session or not? Sen. Munoz writes an article endorsing elimination of New Mexico's personal income tax. Paul applauds New Mexico politicians for speaking about the "abundance mindset" but explains why it shouldn't just be about government. NM's next Gov. SHOULD address New Mexico's permanent funds which are estimated to grow to $100 billion in just a few years. According to a left wing group that supports "free" daycare New Mexico's "learing" centers are staffed by "many" undocumented workers. New York's left wing Gov. Hochul JUST banned data centers from her state. The last thing NM needs is a moratorium on data centers.
7-8-26 Santa Fe New Mexican's James Barron joins the program
This week, we celebrate Independence Day with our annual "State of Local Media" special. But before we do so, we provide an update on a bombshell news story that broke late last month, detailing whistleblower allegations that the federal Drug Enforcement Administration permitted hundreds of thousands of fentanyl pills into Albuquerque in pursuit of bigger cases. This week, top city, county and state officials, including Democratic Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham, called for accountability.We begin our media special with a two-part conversation with Bill Church about the two publications he oversees: the Santa Fe New Mexican and Searchlight New Mexico. First, Executive Producer Jeff Proctor asks Church how the New Mexican is expanding, at a time when newspapers are supposed to be dying. Then, Church is joined at the table with Searchlight editor Ed Williams as the two talk to Jeff about the future of the newly acquired investigative news site.Podcast Host: Lou DiVizioExecutive Producer: Jeff ProctorGuests: Bill Church, Executive Editor, Santa Fe New Mexican Ed Williams, Investigations Editor, Searchlight New Mexico
The New World screwworm (NWS) was eradicated from the United States 60 years ago. So how did this flesh-eating parasite return? In early June, New Mexico confirmed its first case of NWS in a dog in the southeastern part of the state, raising concerns for ranchers, veterinarians, pet owners, and health officials. While experts stress there's no reason to panic, USDA officials say awareness and early detection are critical to preventing the pest from spreading and potentially devastating livestock. Chris and Gabby sit down with two experts to discuss how the state prepared for the threat, what symptoms animal owners should watch for, and why the livestock industry is paying close attention. Learn more about the science behind eradication efforts that once eliminated screwworm from the U.S. How could the screwworm impact the ag industry? What should you watch for?

By June 22 nd , hundreds of New Mexicans submitted comments in support of theNew Mexico Environment Department's strong stand to protect the People of NewMexico by requiring Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) to remove plutonium-contaminated waste “Off the Hill.”
A leaked, fresh poll can cut through months of rumors, and that's exactly what we got for the New Mexico governor's race. We walk you through the toplines and the telling cross-tabs: how Deb Haaland looks on favorability, why Gregg Hull's biggest advantage might be that so many voters still don't know him, and what the early head-to-head (48 to 42) suggests about the work both sides have to do.We also get honest about the national shadow hanging over a state contest. Trump's numbers in New Mexico, especially with independents and undecided voters, create a real strategic trap for Republicans: lean in and lose the middle, or create distance and risk depressing your own turnout. From there we drill into the issues that actually move votes here at home, including Haaland's past comments on a fracking ban on public lands and why that collides with New Mexico's energy-driven budget, plus why “Medicare for All” language polls well even when the math gets messy.Then we pivot to Albuquerque and Bernalillo County, where the gross receipts tax is back on the table. We break down the “only half a penny” sales pitch, why gross receipts taxes are regressive, and why repeated tax and fee hikes land hardest on small businesses and working families in a state that already ranks near the top for tax burden while ranking last for median household income.

Episode 131 - What does it take to stand up to the U.S. government and demand justice? In this episode, we share the inspiring story of Tina Cordova, a cancer survivor and sixth-generation New Mexican who transformed personal tragedy into a decades-long fight for accountability. As co-founder of the Tularosa Basin Downwinders Consortium, Tina helped bring national attention to the victims of radioactive fallout from the Trinity Test and fought for recognition, healthcare, and compensation for affected families. This is a powerful story of resilience, community, and the pursuit of justice against overwhelming odds.

New Mexico and the U.S. are one step closer to having the first female Native American governor as former Interior Secretary Deb Haaland (Laguna Pueblo) beat out her Democratic opponent Sam Bregman with 72% of the vote Tuesday night in the primary election. KUNM’s Jeanette DeDios (Jicarilla Apache and Diné) was among the attendees at her watch party. Old Town plaza was filled with New Mexicans young and old in support of Democratic gubernatorial candidate Deb Haaland, dressed in a black and white dress with bright red cowboy boots. Haaland told the crowd she would lower costs so that New Mexicans can have better access to health care, education, and safe communities. “I’ve been through hard times. I’m a single mom, I’ve lived paycheck to paycheck, I survived off SNAP and WIC. I’m over 35 years sober. These are the same struggles so many New Mexicans face today, but with the grit, creativity, and persistence that only New Mexicans know, I know a better New Mexico, as possible.” Haaland served as the 54th U.S Secretary of Interior, making her one of the first two Native American women elected to Congress. She said she will put that work into experience. “To combat [President] Donald Trump’s cuts to Medicaid, fight against rising health care costs, and take a stand, so that ICE will not be allowed near schools, places of worship, or public community spaces.” Kalika Tallou (Diné and Ute) works for the nonprofit New Mexico Community Capital and was in the crowd. She says she has heard some reservations from other Indigenous people about Haaland, but she says Haaland has a big voice in the grand scheme of things. “I feel supportive of her and her work in Washington, DC, and internationally, and across the island, and wanting to uplift and support our Indigenous women with the challenges that they're faced with.” Haaland will face Republican candidate Greg Hull on November 3. “If I didn’t earn your vote this primary election, I want you to know I’m going to work every day to earn it now.” Hopi dry farmer Michael Kotutwa Johnson. (Photo: Lauren Gilger / KJZZ) The University of Arizona has released a new report highlighting the huge economic impact of tribal agriculture throughout the Grand Canyon State – including $750,000,000 in total economic output statewide. KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio has details. According to the study, Indigenous farms outnumber all other operations statewide. And while most tribal farms are between one and nine acres in size, they collectively manage more than 80% of Arizona's farmlands during 2022. For Hopi dry farmer Michael Kotutwa Johnson, who is a co-author, this report is an important reminder. “The main story is that Indian people are still doing agriculture since before we were in a state… Maybe doing it in a different form, but we're still here, and we're still doing that, and I think that our contributions have been really unnoticed.” Including how the vast majority of Arizona farms for commodities, like sheep, goats, vegetables, and melons, are owned by Indigenous peoples. Johnson thinks that trend will continue to grow. “So I really would make the claim that in about 20 years the only real agriculture in Arizona will be on Indian reservations.” Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily.

Join me Saturday 4/25 for the Rosicrucian Astrology LIMINALSTREAM where I investigate the order's 1922 manual and compare current and natal transits: https://www.youtube.com/live/zP5cCmYc5Dg?si=dXuoCz2kkRd2B78Q EDIT: AUDIO has been updated with a better mix--the intro monologue was recorded in a hushed rush during a late night somnambulant AirBnB stay, so better mixing was required! ∴∴∴∴ Transubstantiation of The Sacred Antenna & Traveling Temple This Aries stellium (re)birthed the long-divergent livestream faction of WE THE HALLOWED's broadckast & mutlimedia grimoire, PRAGMAGICK, long-dubbed and too-long-dormant: the LIMINALSTREAM. To be honest, I'm in sort of a crucible. My constant fight for time, energy, captial and time-energy capital to maintain the consistent output of projects such as We The Hallowed, Pragmagick, new albums and performances, micro-publishing Somatick Magicks for Patrons--all of it has had to be under dire review due to my stasis of having to work away from home just to maintain a home I'm rarely in. It's dire, drab, disheartening and all around heavy that the fight for supreme artistry in the face of a megalithic capitalist undertow seems both ever so necessary yet ever so unnoticed. The cost of running this site, let alone all the channels of which to create our arts without much qualms, if any really, or monetary issuance has proven to be an insurmountable affair as is. But I refuse to buckle or bribe or barter with the great machine, and have taken the heavy toll and burden to internalize why financial independence isn't afforded from these ventures alone. That probably isn't healthy either, yet I persist. After wilderness years spent toiling and tinkering with ways to charge the current, it has become all-too apparent that the livestream's capabilities of creating wholly intentional transmissions and 'third spaces' of performance, sermon and vexation without appeasing rent-mad venues, other people's intentions or allowance of artificial intelligence slop could nominally be achieved through the art magick adherence to the liminalstream transmission. And what better to initiate a new experimental era of a wide-spectrum of dipsatches than under this excitingly rare fire stellium currently transiting? Due to my increasingly laborious schedule largely spent away from the Dimming Room, it became all too apparent that my way through with keeping consistent tithes to ongoing projects, lifting connected artists and We The Hallowed haunts, and growing the burgeoning patreon base to hopefully one day not need to suffer so much survival in this monolithic capitalist nightmare structure, allow the liminalstream a wonderful spectrum of highly intentional, heavily produced to topic based, low-tech dispatches from the sacred antenna of the PRAGMAGICK broadckast current. Last week, I attempted a DIMMING ROOM dispatch that revealed a longtime telepathetic annoyance of an unwitting poltergheiszt, then streamed from the phone as I picked up the pieces and worked through this newfound revelation: https://www.youtube.com/live/xS6oqrlU6Gs?si=kao6bJ6LGBrtUhJ0 https://youtube.com/live/xS6oqrlU6Gs?feature=share Here, the attempted live ritual using a spiritbox and the in-room projections audio triggered of custom footage was finally due to to be shared with the world. The thesis and experimentation behind the scenes has long toiled with ways to imbue the communion with multi-sensory transmissions. This nominal release of the ritual where the objective was to contact LITTLE WIND (or more formally Z the Redreamer) concerning the intentions of this new era and current cosmick transits would not happen, however. For no discernable reason I was run ragged with technical issues throughout the premiere that I still have no calcuable way to avoid in the future, nor way to discern much of why two separate computers used for streaming fell due to never-before-seen internal errors, let alone the spiritbox actually breaking right after I had recovered the stream and was ready to push on! Alas, so many lessons learned that stream, one of which is that trying a huge array of objectives within one stream is not only suboptimal tech wise, but performance and demeanor-wise as acting host, producer and performer is far too hectic oversee whilst allowing the artistic heteronym to control this vehicle performing musick, initiate meditative videomancy sessions and tap into the gibber-gabber needed to monologue to an audience concerning all the intentions therein! Not only were there obscure and completely unfounded tech issues on the digital plane, but in the physical my spirit box literally broke right before the ritual tells me that I was radiating an unseen reckless energy like statick discharge from ungrounded finger tips. You see, this is a long-storied issue with my performances, and another reason I'm attempting to get the sea legs of confident performance through these liminalstreams; I know I'm radiating, emanating, manifesting a nervous energy that is poisonous to electrical currents. Intuitively, I know it's me. If only I had performed the intended current cleanse at the top of the show and rested my gheiszt a bit before spelunking into a deluge of wild sessions within one stream! So through wincing and frustrated tears I soldiered on and concluded with a makeshift altar/Dimming Room Current Cleanse to ward off whatever bad ghost juju projected from my unwitting self (or, for safety sake, some banishing of outside dark dudes too) with a musical saw bowed through effects and guitar pedals. Improvised magick is potent magick! https://youtu.be/2FQEUi8heVc?si=nTxikN2_zL6Q4M30 https://youtu.be/2FQEUi8heVc But all and all, as an induction ceremony to a new era of output, the liminalstream did it's job. The revelation of the nega-statik gheiszt that my intensity and anxiety unwittingly releases that has long caused obscure tech issues for my performances, alone, is worth the price of admittance. This very ex/o/rcise of the weekly liminalstream dispatches can help correct such energy diversions; and since, they've only gotten better if not more focused. It's this sort of deep, revelatory moment that makes the liminalstream so worthwhile to me as practitioner, aside from the usual experimental fare and art hexorcism the transmissions can dutifully provide. The next day, calm and collected and willing to show the lowtech side of the liminalstream spectrum, I went live as I repaired the spiritbox and discussed these revelations: https://www.youtube.com/live/eiGFmZKa-JA?si=Whq468SJtz9-GbEI https://youtube.com/live/eiGFmZKa-JA?feature=share This also introduced a rubric and schema to bookend the LIMINALSTREAM so that no-matter where it is dispatched, or the amount of production and featured topic, a sinew can bind and ordain the transmissions within the Liminalstream current: Each stream is construkted either behind the scenes prior, or during the stream itself, with the Divergent Magick Grimoire - this helps the anarchic contents find footing within a ritual schema and operating procedure whilst also keeping the expected torrential innards a little more approachable. It also bestows the title of each Rite as the title of each LIMINALSTREAM. Perhaps I can also utilize the Divergent Magick Online Rite Builder when the hard or paperback copy is not on hand, thus allowing viewers to peer into the process. In turn, each liminalstream that doesn't so much have a presupposed theme or even thumbnail artwork will utilize the DISRUPTION GENERATOR to reveal a divinatory theme and its respective image (Such as the title/artwork for the stream above has). This allows for two thirds of We The Hallowed's scripture troikatych (or threefold equation) to be continually charged and investigated while the newly formulated 'Tethers', or We The Hallowed connective ethos, is formulated for publishing. The finalizing of the 'TETHERS', in turn, will be a reoccuring and intermittent topic for future LIMINALSTREAMS as I have clued Patrons in on the formulation of this anarchic multimedia magickal collective's synthesis exalted within construction of The Tethers. PROSPEKTRE CURRENT COMMUNION: A SPIRITBOX/VIDEOMANCY RITUAL Session truly begins around 7 minutes in: https://www.youtube.com/live/dJlciIS6ywE?si=j39K1uYgM3Jf9WjC Around dawn, pacific time, I performed a “liminalstream” (public art magick ritual via Pragmagick youtube channel) showcasing a grounding-yet-road-opening initiatory Hauntomancy Ritual for this cosmick stellium that happens to be shuffling in my eighth house (if the natal chart birth time I've reverse-engineered is correct, of course.) I'm utilizing similar schema from my PROSPECTRE (sic) RITUAL by incorporating rubric from Listening Post Alpha (the solo “Estes Method” akin Spirit Box communion and the paramount and illucidating ALW Cipher Decoding post-session) yet not with audiomancy as I had previously interjected, but with hypnagogic inducing projections (think technicolor Dream Machine ala Gysin & Burroughs) of deeply intentional imagery (analog photography from dear friend and collaborator that adorned the ALGOL series of original musick I've recently released—who's New Mexican property holds a unique opportunity in our future) casted as in-room videomancy all captured by a VHS camcorder & analog dirty video mixer triggered by the Spiritbox transmissions. Stay tuned for decoding a deeper insight on what, or whom, came through. The ritual is not complete until the LISTENING POST ALPHA rubric of decoding using the ALW Cipher is drafted as a report. This may be a Patreon stream, specifically, while utilizing the public Liminalstream current to continue my weekly dispatches across a wide spektrum of production, focus and theme. Conversing with the spirit box for this new era using transmission triggered and live analog mixed/painted videomancy of custom footage and Logan Ford's analog photography (that accompanied Revelator Rosz's ALGOL I) to create a hypnagogic rhythmic technicolor atmosphere projected in room for immersive communion (somewhat partially akin to the Brion Gysin & William S. Burroughs Dream Machine experiments) Hauntomancy / Videomancy Aspekts: This communion was initiated with the ultraterrestrial known as Z the REDREAMER (or more colloquially, Little Wind) who was introduced through Listening Post Alpha sessions. The being's identity is purely speculation, but has often hinted that they may be the supraself or temporally displaced self-spektre of Revelator Rosz. https://keatsross.substack.com/p/haunt-of-the-aspectre-haunt-manual Videomancy exalted Dimming Room truly 'DIMS THE TZIM-TZUM': https://wethehallowed.org/audiomancy-videocast/https://keatsross.substack.com/p/salvo-siempre-salvo-haunt-manual : Using custom footage casted and mixed with dead tech necromancy as time engines (60's B&W Cathode Tube Amp Camera, VHS Camcorder as main camera, 90's panasonic analog video mixer and other thought obsolete talismanik devices with unfinished business finally realized with new applications.

This week, at least for Patrons if not publicly as well, I plan on streaming from a work trip as this rhythm is my new normal. And this new normal is hectic, lonely, uncomfortable and all-too insurmountable if not married with artistic and psycho-spiritual insight. So let the Liminalstream be the anchor to an otherwise rough scape forward. As I finalize the official summation and primer of Hauntomancy with the Spektrivium, codify We The Hallowed's metaphysical tenets and machinations with the updated Tethers, publish and create Somatick media releases in physical formats, and continue the musickal hexorcisms as Revelator Rosz and Dakota Slim, there could be no better, egalitarian and approachable transmission than that of the art magick livestream, or liminalstream. This month will see the release of the ALGOL hexkassette, a 90 minute collection of the Algol musickal series collected, with rarieties, thus far, for PATRONS and Somatick subscribers.

SNAP underwent some big changes last year, and as a result an upcoming deadline is set to lock-out thousands of New Mexicans from food assistance for the next three years.
The Public Service Company of New Mexico, or PNM, and its parent company filed an application last year with state regulators to be acquired by Blackstone Infrastructure, the nation's largest private equity firm. Ten months later, that sale is still pending. Albuquerque Journal Staff Writer Justin Horwath has covered the acquisition process. Horwath talks to Executive Producer Jeff Proctor about the potential purchase and what an approved acquisition would mean for New Mexicans who receive their electrical power from PNM.Podcast Host: Lou DiVizioExecutive Producer: Jeff ProctorGuest: Justin Horwath, Staff Writer, Albuquerque Journal
It is August, 1680 in New Mexico. The rebelling Pueblo Indians have sprung their ambush and quickly killed 400 Spaniards. About 2500 survivors have concentrated in two groups, at the government buildings in Santa Fe, and 70 miles to the south at Isleta Pueblo. Each has reason to believe that everybody else has died, and they are alone. The Indians beseige Santa Fe, but Governor Antonio de Otermín leads a successful defense. Still, they are isolated and out of food, and determine to retreat to the recently established mission at El Paso. The southern group, under Lieutenant Garcia at Isleta, make the same decision. This is the history of that harrowing retreat, another amazing story of survival in the European settlement of today’s United States. It is also the only time in American history that rebelling indigenous peoples entirely expelled an established European settlement from their territory. The Spaniards would, of course, eventually reconquer New Mexico, but not until 1692. The settlement of the New Mexican refugees at El Paso would make it – for the moment – the third most populous settlement of Europeans in North America, and the functional beginning of the eventual New Spanish territory, Mexican state, Republic, and American State of Texas.
