Michael Hughes is a biochemist, water researcher and friend of the podcast with a passion for philosophy, mythology, and esoteric traditions. In this conversation, we explore the historical tension between priesthood and prophecy, the way science has replaced religion as a cultural authority, and ask why no society has ever thrived without a shared mythos. The discussion touches on mythology as a guiding force, Rudolf Steiner's spiritual dualism, the balance between materialism and mysticism, the promises and failures of technology, transhumanism, and AI. We also dive into the rise of UFOs and alien narratives as new messianic myths, the enduring metaphor of Atlantis, and the possibility of building a functional metaphysical framework for chaotic times.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showOUR HOMEBREWED MUSICCheck out our band's new album:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-hereVinyl pre-orders available now: https://buy.stripe.com/14A5kC3Od5d21Ms7zPdEs0900:00 Go!

We are joined again this week by Steve Matthews from Exposing the Cults to take another look into the world of Burning Man and Transformational Festivals. Our guest has attended Burning Man and has studied, written on, and has spoken about this growing phenomenon for several years now, and brings us years of his thinking and analysis on this subject in this episode. Matthews likes to point out that, "Young people today are not rushing out and joing groups like the Jehovah's Witnesses these days. Instead, they are pursuing other spiritual paths like Burning Man and other similar Transformational Festivals. Everything is changing now to new forms of spirituality in our culture." In this episode we delve into the hard to explain nature of these festivals and describes what goes on at them, as well as uncover the true history of Burning Man and then give a critical response to the emerging Pagan worldview behind Transformational Festival culture.

Renee and Sandra take on a very potent topic about healing. Many shamanic practitioners today are stuck in the illusion that it is the methods of healing that people turn to shamanism today. But in reality, methods have never healed anyone. Shamans have used “methods” as a way to demonstrate that she/he is performing a healing. But the true work that creates the healing is the energetic forces swirling around the client.When the shamanic practitioner creates sacred space, sings, dances, and prepares to be the hollow bone for the helping spirits that is when the most potent part of the work happens.To learn more about this powerful topic join Renee Baribeau and Sandra Ingerman in this fascinating show Shamanstv.com.
Burning Man isn't just art and “radical self-expression”—it's a weeklong pagan ritual with occult symbolism, drugs-and-sex liturgy, and a counterfeit gospel built around burning a wooden effigy and a man-made temple. This video exposes why that false freedom leaves people empty—and points to the only true healing, atonement, and living water found in Jesus Christ.

Matt, Alastair, Joseph, and Derek explore the themes of enchantment and disenchantment in theology and culture. They reflect on Charles Taylor's analysis of the “disenchanted” modern age, the loss of a sacramental imagination, and the ways Christians might recover a sense of wonder, mystery, and divine presence in creation. The conversation considers both dangers—superstition, romantic nostalgia—and opportunities for faithful re-enchantment through Scripture, liturgy, and daily discipleship.

Over a millennium ago, Norsemen loaded up their boats and moved south toward the heart of Europe, traversing its abundant rivers to raid, trade, and conquer. One of these conquests was the city of Kyiv, which these Rus' invaders ('Swedes,' in the local long-ago parlance, Stacie thinks, but also 'men who row') made the seat of the first Eastern Slavic State, way before Moscow was a thing, the Kyivan Rus. The Kyivan Rus's second ruler, Igor I, took a wife at some point during his long reign, and upon his murder, she took both his crown and his vengeance on those who had wronged them both, and their kingdom. In a notably bloodthirsty series of events, Olga of Kyiv murdered the offending peoples' diplomats, envoys, citizens, and laid siege to the capitol of the Drevlians, ultimately destroying the city entirely. But her story wasn't all revenge; she was an able ruler and regent to her son, establishing the first vestiges of modern governance in the region. After his age of majority, Olga continued to govern the city of Kyiv during his many military expeditions abroad. Olga, perhaps thinking better of some of the aftermath of Igor's death, later converted from Paganism to become a devout Christian, building churches and, through her grandson, ushering in the permanent Christianization of the Kyivan Rus.

In this episode of The Skeptical Shaman podcast, host Rachel White (of TOTEM Readings), chats with Madia Smith of CYGNUS Human Design and Hoof + Feather Co all about her love for all things bird.Since ancient times, birds have been crucial spiritual vectors, offering divinatory insights in Ancient Greece and Rome (under the formal name "ornithomancy"), shamanic "medicine" as a totem animal, and inspiration for some of our most magical and transcendent works of art, like Swan Lake.Madia describes her hands-on work saving and caring for rescue waterfowl of all shapes and sizes, and shares some key tips and tricks to ensure that these magical birds aren't abandoned, abused or otherwise mistreated by sometimes well-meaning folks (spoiler alert: bread is NOT a food for ducks after all!).She also shares her love for Human Design, astrology, tapping and more, outlining her journey to off-the-grid wild woman AND diviner and coach of the highest order!This is one of those magical episodes that gives us a line of sight into a typically totally "alien" way of living: out in nature, surrounded by magical birds, and contemplating the long count cycles of human epochs!Rachel's LINKS:Rachel's Website: https://www.totemreadings.comTOTEM Readings Substack: https://totemrach.substack.comRachel's Other Links: https://linktr.ee/totemrachOur Sponsors' LINKS:The TOTEM Flower Essence Deck: https://a.co/d/gw16LsGThe TOTEM Tarot Deck: https://totemreadingsatx.etsy.com/listing/1492934343The TOTEM Flower Essences: https://www.etsy.com/shop/TotemReadingsATXTOTEM Spiritual Transformation Coaching: https://www.totemreadings.com/coachingTOTEM Business of Woo Mentoring: https://www.totemreadings.com/business-of-wooMadia's Links:Hoof + Feather COCYGNUS Human DesignSubstackPlease note: The views and opinions expressed on The Skeptical Shaman do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of the podcast.

With me today are Big Dave Martel, Imperium Press, and Tristan Powers, three practicing Pagans who insist they believe in the reality of the Gods as they're depicted in Norse mythology. As people/beings who live *somewhere* that is real, and a place we may go to when we die, if we live our lives in accord with their Will.Most of the show is spent explaining what Paganism is, what they believe, and how and why it is appropriate and applicable for 21st century Americans to convert to paganism.This is NOT a “paganism versus christianity” episode, rather it's an opportunity for sincere pagans to present their beliefs and make an argument for why it's a viable spirituality and religion for the right. We do, however, address a few contentions the differing religions and faiths have between each other.You must visit Hearthfireradio.com to hear more from these guys, I am a huge fan of their work and have learned a ton from them over the years.

The Demystify Duo goes to Delphi! This is the place that used to be at the center of the ancient world, a bustling hub of commerce, politics, and religion. At the center of the place was the Delphic Oracle, an event as much as it was a location. Young girls ordained as Pythias would be locked into a room where they would huff volatile gases that emerged from a crack in the floor. As they muttered the details of their psychedelic visions into the ears of priests, they were transmuted into the counsel that would move the world. Today, nothing but ruins remain. As we walk through the scattered columns and shattered statues, we meditate on the nature of civilizations - how gods that rule the world rise and fall, how the people persist, and the lessons that can be gleaned from the olive shaded dust of this ancient place.

Help keep our podcast going by contributing to our Patreon! In our last episode about Amalasuintha and the end of the Ostrogothic Kingdom, we said we were next going to turn to the Visigothic Kingdom. But the story of the Visigothic Kingdom can't be told without knowing a little more about the history of Gothic religion. Both Visigoths and Ostrogoths were Christian by the time they appear in ancient sources. They were the earliest Germanic group to convert to Christianity. But what was their religion like before that? We know almost nothing about it. But not nothing entirely. Join us as we draw back the curtain on a mysterious world lost to time—the world of Gothic paganism. Sponsors and Advertising This podcast is a member of Airwave Media podcast network.

This was a powerful lesson she learned as she tried it while walking through a blizzard and arrived home feeling empowered and revitalized.She tired the same thing walking through pain instead of trying to find ways to suppress it. And there was a blessing and gift waiting for her in doing this.Join Renee Baribeau and Sandra Ingerman and as Renee joins in on this conversation sharing her depth of wisdom that she learned doing the same thing.Is it time for us to face our fears and pain and walk through to the other side where blessings, healing, and a rebirth are waiting for us?

Paganism was the set of original ancient religions around the world. They all had plenty of gods, loved nature, sometimes sacrificed things, and so on. Then the Big Three religions came along and took over. But today paganism has come roaring back!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
