A 2023 book collects accounts of shapeshifting strangers, reptilian visitors, and living doubles, arguing the aliens John Carpenter put on screen may have been walking among us all along.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/TheyLiveREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/ycktrfu5FEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Have you ever felt like something was off about someone you met? What if the truth was more bizarre than you could imagine - that aliens walk secretly among us, perfectly disguised? (Mimic In The Mirror) *** The short story “Eight O'Clock In The Morning” by Ray Nelson – the inspiration for the movie “They Live!” *** Left-handedness: once a mark of the devil, now a unique trait celebrated across the globe. From the Salem Witch Trials to modern-day challenges with spiral notebooks, left-handers have been forced to navigate a world designed for righties, despite the historical stigmas, surprising advantages, and the evolving recognition of left-handers in combat, culture, and commerce. (Left-Handers Are In League With The Devil) *** In the shadow of Switzerland's majestic Eiger mountain, 29-year-old Aidan Roche vanished without a trace during a solo hiking trip. Despite an unlocked camper-van and one last eerie messages sent from the trail, his disappearance remained shrouded in mystery. Months later, a grim discovery brought more questions than answers. (The Disappearance of Aidan Roche) *** In the summer of 1948, a series of inexplicable fires ravaged the Willey farm near Macomb, Illinois, destroying the family's home and barns. Despite the efforts of local authorities and the U.S. Air Force, no logical explanation could be found for the hundreds of mysterious blazes that seemed to start spontaneously. At the center of this baffling case was 13-year-old Wanet McNeil, whose alleged confession to arson left many unconvinced. Was Wanet truly responsible? Could she have been starting the fires with her mind? (The Macomb Firestarter) *** In 1991, 63-year-old Vasile Gorgos left his home in Romania to visit a cattle market and never returned, leaving his family to believe he had met a tragic fate. But 30 years later, Vasile shocked everyone when he mysteriously reappeared, wearing the same clothes as the day he vanished and carrying an unused train ticket from 1991 in his pocket. With no memory of where he'd been for three decades, Vasile's strange case has left people wondering if his disappearance could be tied to supernatural phenomena like portals, alien abduction, or shifts in time and space itself.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: April 30, 2024In this episode of Weird Darkness, listeners move through alien impostors, the long history of left-handed stigma, a hiker who vanished in the Swiss Alps, a farm besieged by fires no one could explain, and a Romanian cattle trader who came home after thirty years.It opens with the mimics. Ray Nelson's 1963 story "Eight O'Clock in the Morning" — the basis for John Carpenter's 1988 film "They Live" — imagined reptilian aliens ruling Earth from behind human faces, and the 2023 book "Mimics: The Others Among Us" argues that scenario may not be fiction. The book collects accounts like that of Brenda Butler, co-author of a book on the Rendlesham Forest UFO incident, who in 1984 met a tall, blue-eyed man calling himself David Daniels and claiming to be from the Pleiades star cluster, then watched his skin turn scaly and reptilian before he shifted back to human. It recounts author Chris Holly's memory of a strikingly similar white-haired, blue-eyed family she later connected to the extraterrestrial "Tall Whites," alongside cases of living ghosts, doppelgangers, and a 1970s poltergeist blamed on a mimic wearing a teenage girl's face.From there the episode traces why left-handedness was treated as sinister for centuries. During the Salem Witch Trials, favoring the left hand could bring an accusation of witchcraft, and as late as the 1970s schools still forced left-handed children to write with their right. The Book of Matthew places the righteous on the right and the cursed on the left, the Zulu scalded children's left hands to stop their use, and communities along the Niger River tied left-handed cooking to witchcraft — while the ancient Celts prized left-handed warriors, Rome read left-side omens as favorable, and the Inca chief Lloque Yupanqui was admired for his left-handedness. The stigma softened by the late 1960s, when William Gruby opened Anything Left-Handed, Ltd. to sell scissors, kitchen tools, and watches built for lefties.Next comes the disappearance of Aidan Roche, a 29-year-old chemical engineer from Middlesbrough who vanished on June 22nd, 2023, while hiking the Eiger Trail in Switzerland's Bernese Oberland. His campervan sat unlocked and abandoned near the trailhead with everything inside intact, and his final messages placed him two hours from Grindelwald in clear weather on a well-traveled path. Swiss police, mountain rescue teams, dogs, and drones searched for five days, and his brothers Connor and Niall raised over £30,000 for helicopter surveillance and screen advertisements in twenty-four locations, yet found nothing until September 24th, 2023, when Aidan's body was discovered near the trail with the cause of death still unreleased.The episode then settles on the Willey farm outside Macomb, Illinois, where hundreds of fires broke out in the summer of 1948. They started on August 7th as small brown spots that appeared on the living room wallpaper, spread, smoldered, and burst into flame — more than 200 of them in one week, igniting curtains, an ironing board, and newspapers sealed inside a closed cupboard, often erupting on walls and ceilings while witnesses watched. The blazes consumed the farmhouse on August 14th and both barns soon after, drew over 1,000 spectators on August 22nd, and even brought in the U.S. Air Force, which floated directed radiation from the Russians as a possible cause. Officials declared the case solved on August 30th by pinning it on 13-year-old Wanet McNeil, who confessed to using kitchen matches after hours of questioning despite never being seen holding any; psychiatrist Dr. Sophie Schroeder found her mentally normal, researcher Vincent Gaddis called it poltergeist activity, and Fire Chief Fred Wilson retired still convinced something unexplainable had happened.The episode closes with Vasile Gorgos, a 63-year-old cattle trader from Bacău, Romania, who left for a market in 1991 and disappeared for three decades. His wife reported him missing, an extensive police search turned up no trace, and his family eventually held a ceremony and accepted that he was dead. On a Sunday afternoon in August 2021, a car pulled up outside his old house and drove off before anyone could read the plate, leaving behind a 93-year-old Vasile in the same clothes he had worn in 1991, carrying an unused train ticket from that year and an old identity card listing an address in another part of Romania.

Summary: The Book of Ephesians has been called the Swiss Alps of the New Testament as we have scaled great heights of God's love and calling upon our lives. And as the Epistle began, so does it end, with “Grace”. God's story, and your story, all begins and ends with Grace…. God's-Riches-at-Christ's-Expense. Living in Grace and giving Grace to one another……. We will live a life that takes us into the heavenlies, where Christ is seated! Join us as we end where we began….. In Grace.

"Poseidon's massive trident was broken; it protruded at an obtuse angle from the rubble of the temple. Icicles hung from its three prongs that no longer avariciously pointed heavenward. Xavier shuddered and pulled the fur layers tighter around him against the cutting cold of the gale as he raised his eyes from the trident to behold the desolation of Atlantis." - The opening line of the sequel to my magnum opus work of fiction, Hourglass #2: The Trident, The Tachyon & The TemptressThis chapter teases a provocative premise: Might the individual man's mastery of his lust mirror cosmic cycles of civilizational destruction? And that premise will stalk you throughout the novel; from a VR simulation of the Atlantean empire, to courtroom drama and shocking revelations in the Swiss Alps, to the epic conclusion of the Hourglass saga aboard a luxurious zeppelin where a decadent “Eyes Wide Shut” party ascends above CERN.Order Novel [Audiobook Included]

Romans 8:31-39 Absolved from the Penalty of Sin Christ Died for Us (vv. 31-32) God has freely given His Son God will freely give us His inheritance (8:16-17) Justified from the Prosecution of Sin Christ Stands by Us (vv. 33-34) The Judge The Judged The Justifier The Justified Victorious over the Power of Sin Christ Loves Us (vv. 35-39) The security of His love over adversity The safety of His love over adversaries The celebration of His love over all! More to Consider As a young man in Europe, I did considerable mountain climbing in the Swiss Alps and in the more dangerous and difficult French Alps. Roped together with other young men, I scaled many a peak; my snapshot book records moments of difficulty and peril that make me wish to restrain others who might venture into similar places. The first time I went out with a young Frenchman, son of a pastor, and a young Swiss bank clerk. They gave me sound advice: "You have two hands and two feet, and that makes four. Always be sure that three out of the four are firmly on the rock. It is the only rule of safety." Donald Grey Barnhouse I had just gone through a series of medical tests. Fearful of the results, I went swimming at the local YMCA to pass the time. There I noticed a father carrying his son over to the deep end. Still holding his child, he plunged into the deep water. A few seconds later they surfaced--the son laughing and brushing water from his eyes, the father guiding him safely to the pool's edge. This picture of a father and child spoke powerfully to me. I realized that just like that boy, we are protected by our heavenly Father--and when we can be confident we're in his arms. Martha Whitmore Hickman, "Heart to Heart," Today's Christian Woman. There is an old ploughman in the country I sometimes talk with, and he often says, though in uncouth words, some precious things. He said to me one day, "The other day, sir, the Devil was tempting me and I tried to answer him; but I found he was an old lawyer and understood the law a great deal better than I did, so I gave over and would not argue with him any more; so I said to him, 'What do you trouble me for?' 'Why,' said he, 'about your soul.' 'Oh!' said I, 'that is no business of mine; I have given my soul over into the hand of Christ; I have transferred everything to him; if you want an answer to your doubts and queries, you must apply to my Advocate."' Charles H. Spurgeon

Launched by Adam Bonvin, Alaïa was born following a surfing trip to France. His desire: to recreate this surfing atmosphere in the Swiss Alps. Alaïa Bay became the world's third Wavegarden Cove opened to the public. But the real story here is what happened after the grand opening. Dealing with harsh Swiss winters, pool bottom issues, and operating within a non-endemic surf culture, Adam learned harsh operational lessons early on. It's a common theme in the surf park space as projects discover that a successful facility relies less on sizzle reels of the pros and more on how you cultivate customer experience beyond opening day. In this candid interview, Adam shares what went wrong and how the team made adjustments to remedy each issue as it surfaced - the ongoing process of which has molded Alaïa Bay into the premier surf experience it is today.

Not everyone has the same reasons for playing, but with money, power, and influence up for grabs, everyone wants to win. Too bad they're not all playing by the same rules. New York Times bestselling author Alyson Gerber crafts an explosive, high-octane mystery that will immerse readers in a world of dangerous riddles, friendship and betrayal, and an addictive search for the truth. The third installment raises the stakes, and it's perfect for fans of Margaret Peterson Haddix, James Ponti, and the Inheritance Games by Jennifer Lynn Barnes.

Uncovering Women Miners' Forgotten Legacy in the ‘Swiss Alps' of Sequoia National Park  Mineral King is located in the southern part of Sequoia National Park but its remote location means it gets fewer visitors than other parts of the park. So the campers and backpackers that make the trek are rewarded with a spectacular mountain range with rushing waterfalls. There are only a handful of buildings here, including some historic wooden cabins that belong to a few families who've been here long before this was a national park. One of those cabins belongs to Laile Di Silvestro's family. Her connection to Mineral King goes back to the 1870s. Today, she's an archeologist, and she's looking for the stories she didn't hear growing up. In 2024, as part of our Hidden Gems series, host Sasha Khokha hiked Mineral King with Di Silvestro to learn about some surprising trail blazers in the California Gold Rush, and the discrimination some people faced during those boom times. The World's Largest Bishop Pine Forest Is in Point Reyes California is home to a lot of iconic trees, including giant sequoias, windswept Monterey cypresses, and Joshua trees. The bishop pine doesn't have that kind of celebrity status. But if you live on the Point Reyes Peninsula in west Marin County you're all too familiar with it. These indigenous trees are so well-suited to growing here, that to locals they're notorious pests, not because of how easily they grow, but because of how they die. In 2024, reporter Lusen Mendel took us to Tomales Bay State Park to meet someone who's made it his mission to deal with the pesky and strangely loveable pines. Welcome to Rough and Ready, the Tiny Town That Used to Be a Republic We head to the Nevada County town of Rough and Ready, about 5 miles west of Grass Valley.  In 1850, it seceded from the nation and temporarily became its own republic. In 2017, KQED's Bianca Taylor spoke to a proud resident of Rough and Ready to learn more about the town's history, and how it got its name. Learn more about your ad choices.

What if the success you spent three decades building disappeared overnight — and the hardest part wasn't the money, but knowing who you were without it? In this honest, unhurried episode of Legendary Leaders, host Cathleen O'Sullivan is joined by Scott Proposki — photographer, entrepreneur, author, and business coach based in Boston, Massachusetts. For nearly three decades, Scott built one of the most recognisable event photography businesses in North America: 52 people, eight-figure revenue, and a client list that included National Geographic, the White House, Sports Illustrated, and the NFL. Then 2020 arrived, and almost overnight, it was gone. Scott and Cathleen explore what it really costs to stop being the craftsperson and become the CEO, why growing fast can quietly hollow out the thing you loved, how depression after business loss is a grief that doesn't get enough airtime, and what a single conversation with a coach unlocked in his next chapter. They also go deep on his ADHD diagnosis in his early fifties, how understanding it reshaped the way he works and leads, and why his current lifestyle business — intentionally small, deeply profitable, and accessible from the Swiss Alps — is more aligned with who he actually is than the empire ever was. This is a conversation that will ask you to pause before you hit grow again and sit with the question Cathleen raises at the very start: is the size of your business, your ambition, your pace — something you actually chose? Or did you just keep going because stopping felt like failure?​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​   Episode Timeline:   00:00:00 The Cost of Becoming CEO 00:04:33 Introduction to Scott Proposki 00:07:02 The Blueberry Muffin Problem 00:12:42 Learning Leadership by Proximity 00:17:49 How You Show Up for the People You Lead 00:20:14 The Bigger Boat Trap 00:25:27 When COVID Took It All 00:29:24 Depression, Doubt, the Silence Underneath 00:34:02 The Conversation That Cracked Something Open 00:35:42 Life After the Empire 00:41:52 Helping Creators Build Profitable Businesses 00:44:50 Forty Levers, Not One Fix 00:48:19 The Compounding Power of Small Gains 00:55:11 ADHD, the Camera, the Superpower of Focus 01:04:25 The Five-Year Vision 01:09:22 One Step When You Feel Stuck​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​     Key Takeaway:   Becoming the CEO Means Leaving the Craft Behind: Scaling a business often means stepping away from the work that made you good in the first place. That shift needs to be a conscious choice, not something you drift into without noticing. Losing a Business Is a Grief Most People Don't Name: When the business disappeared, so did the identity, purpose, and daily rhythm built around it. Naming that loss for what it is makes rebuilding possible — pushing through without acknowledging it makes it harder. Profit Is a Strategy, Not a Side Effect: Most small business owners are busy without being profitable. Small improvements across multiple areas of a business compound quickly — and cost-cutting, unlike new revenue, goes straight to the bottom line. Own Your List Before the Platform Disappears: Social platforms can vanish or shut you out overnight. An organic email list built on consistent, genuine storytelling is one of the most durable assets a small business can hold. Choose Your Boat Size Before You Start Rowing: The most important question isn't how big you can grow — it's what size business supports the life you actually want. Answering that honestly before you scale can save years of chasing the wrong thing.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​     About Scott Proposki:   Scott Proposki is a business coach, photographer, and author based in Haverhill, Massachusetts. Over nearly three decades, he built one of North America's leading event photography businesses — working with clients including National Geographic, the White House, Sports Illustrated, HBO, and Microsoft — before scaling to a team of 52. When COVID-19 effectively ended the events industry overnight, Scott lost the business he had spent his career building and spent the years that followed rebuilding with far greater intentionality.

Eye Of The Storm: The Power of Stillness #RTTBROS #Nightlight"Be still, and know that I am God." — Psalm 46:10There's an old story about a rescue team in the Swiss Alps that every guide and mountaineer knows well. Back in the early 1900s, a group of hikers got caught in a dense fog on a mountain pass. Visibility dropped to almost nothing. Panic set in, and the group began scattering in different directions, each person certain they knew which way led to safety. By morning, two of them had wandered off the trail and into danger. But one hiker, an old shepherd who happened to be with them, just sat down on a rock, pulled his coat around him, and waited. When the fog finally lifted, he stood up, looked at the landscape for about thirty seconds, and said, "This way." He walked out without a single wrong step.The ones who ran nearly got themselves killed. The one who sat still made it home.I think about that story a lot, especially in the middle of the hard seasons. You know the ones I mean. The season where everything feels like a fog, where you can't see which way is forward, and every instinct in you is screaming to do something, anything, just move. And friend, I have to tell you, I have made some of my worst decisions in that kind of fog. I'm too soon old and too late smart on this one.God says something to us in Psalm 46:10 that runs completely against the grain of every self-help book ever written. He says, "Be still, and know that I am God." Not be strategic. Not be proactive. Not hustle harder. Be still.Now I don't think He's telling us to be passive about life. But I do think He's telling us that there are moments when the most spiritually powerful thing we can do is stop, sit down on that rock, and trust that the fog will lift. Because it will. It always does, when we are trusting the One who controls the weather.In my years as a chaplain, I've sat with people in some of the darkest fog they'd ever faced. And I've noticed something. The ones who fight the fog, who thrash against it and demand answers right now, often end up more disoriented than when they started. But the ones who learn to be still, who say "Lord, I don't know the way, but You do," those people find a peace that genuinely passes understanding.Be still. Know that He is God. The fog will lift.Let's pray: Father, when we can't see the path ahead, quiet our anxious hearts. Teach us to be still before You, trusting that You know exactly where we are and exactly how to bring us home. In Jesus' name, Amen.#BibleWisdomDaily #ChristianWisdom #Faith #TrustGod #PracticalBiblicalWisdom #DailyDevotion #SpiritualGrowth #RTTBROS #NightlightBe sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe, it helps get the word out.https://linktr.ee/rttbrosSHOW NOTESEpisode Title: The Power of Being Still | Nightlight with RTTBROSEpisode Description:In this episode of Nightlight with RTTBROS, Gene Kissinger shares a powerful piece of bible wisdom daily drawn from Psalm 46:10.

Good evening. Welcome back to Dial P for Podcast, Patrick Ripoll's year-long chronological voyage through the films of Alfred Hitchcock. Every month Patrick will be watching four Hitchcock features and talking about them here, from The Pleasure Garden to Family Plot, all across the year of 2026, examining the life and work of England's most famous cinema pervert.For episode 4 we find Alfred Hitchcock a newly christened international film star, taking the magic formula he discovered in The Man Who Knew Too Much (1934) in four very different configurations, with four very different results, as we discuss the ground crumbling from under him at Gaumont Studios. Also: his top three favorite methods of being a hideous creep at parties!Spies and bystanders, codes and MacGuffins, the Scottish Highlands to the Swiss Alps to Picadilly Circus, this episode finds Hitch sharpening the Hitchcockian thriller to a fine point, as well as discarding some truly useless pencil shavings!0:00 - 0:35 - Intro Music0:36 - 1:35:56 - The 39 Steps (1935)1:35:57 - 2:06:51 - Secret Agent (1936)2:06:52 - 2:58:11 - Sabotage (1936)2:58:12 - 3:22:34 - Young & Innocent (1937)3:22:35 - 3:23:46 - Outro Music

"the celebrated Mr. Sherlock Holmes" [SCAN]    The Sherlock Holmes Society of London marks its 75th anniversary in 2026, and today we talk with coordinator Ashley Mayo about the year-long celebration, and his deep-rooted connection to the world of Baker Street. Ashley gives us a grand tour of the 2026 program, including Victorian-costumed pilgrimages in the Swiss Alps, a special event at Hammersmith's Riverside Studios, a weekend symposium at the University of Cambridge, and much more.   You'll also hear about his introduction to the Society at the landmark 1987 centenary dinner for A Study in Scarlet, and how his passion for Sherlockian scholarship led to the creation of "The Scrapbook," a digital archive that provides easy access to decades of articles from the Society's Journal, organized by case and theme.   Our "Learned Societies" segment kicks off with Sherlockian society activities coming up in the first half of July. Then, it's a new edition of "Examining the Pictures," with the film critic, journalist, and author Christian Monggaard, BSI, as he reviews Sherlock, Jr.    Finally, the Canonical Couplet quiz will test your Sherlock Holmes knowledge, with a set of Sherlock Holmes Society of London coasters for the winner.

Ryan opens up about his journey from bartending in Indianapolis and living out of his car while exploring the American West… to becoming one of the key creative voices behind Freetrail and modern trail running media.The conversation dives deep into curiosity, creativity, and learning to say yes to opportunity before you feel ready. Ryan shares stories about discovering trail running through Born to Run and Eat and Run, volunteering at Cascade Crest 100 Mile Endurance Run, and eventually building a life around storytelling, mountains, music, and community.The two also unpack Ryan's unique approach to ultrarunning—especially his love for “step-for-step” adventures with friends at races like the Swiss Alps 100 and upcoming adventures filming Courtney Dauwalter at Cocodona 250 and running the Mammoth.But the heart of this episode centers around a bigger topic: the fragility of life.

"If it's for any other reason (than that you want to) ... you're an idiot." That was Jim Hurst checking Dean Potter on making bad decisions on their climb up the famous Eiger mountain. But it applies to us as conscious creators, too.We know that we can only experience what we vibrate, so suffering our way to success isn't a thing.Struggle just leads to struggle, misery leads to more misery, and only happy journeys lead to happy outcomes. That point is powerfully brought home in a life and death situation on the Swiss Alps!

Thank you!He started running at 27. He is not a professional athlete by his own description. He has run UTMB, Tor des Géants, the Swiss Alps 100, and Moab 240 — where he podiumed and then made a feature documentary about it, because finishing apparently wasn't enough. He spent the week before this recording running reconnaissance on the course. He has now covered about 150 miles of it on foot before the race even starts.In this episode of Flagstaff Bound, Kevin and Peter sit down with Jeff Pelletier — trail runner, filmmaker, and one of three Jeffs in this series — for a conversation about what it actually means to show up to one of the most competitive 250-mile races in the world as someone who approaches the whole thing cerebrally, documents everything with his partner Audrey, and genuinely believes that anyone with a healthy body could do what he does if they had the time and the mindset.Jeff talks about why Cocodona appealed to him, what he learned at Mammoth 200 six months ago that he's bringing directly into this race, and why he's writing himself a pledge to sign before the start line — because that middle section will try to make you complacent, and he's not letting it.Cocodona 250 kicks off Monday, May 4th at 5 AM Pacific.

**Discussion begins at 5:25**Alpine Divorce: Ending a relationship by murdering one's significant other during a mountain trip and passing it off as an accident, or more specifically, abandoning a partner in a remote outdoor setting.  The phrase originates from an 1893 short story by Scottish-Canadian author Robert Barr, titled An Alpine Divorce.  In the grim tale, an unhappy husband plots to kill his wife during a trip to the Swiss Alps, only for her to turn the tables on him, having already framed him for her murder before leaping herself.  Several high profile cases over the last few years have led to a viral trend of social media users telling their own stories of “Alpine Divorce”.  These tales of domestic abuse involve one partner endangering the other in the wilderness – with the victim either being left in a perilous situation, or merely abandoned without consideration for their safety and well-being.  Today we're going to discuss some of the most high profile cases.Send us Fan MailSupport the showTheme song by INDA

Hola New Paradigmer!The problem with self-assertion,Is believing in myself.But if I let go of pride and shame,I may even ask for help.☉Join me in the Swiss Alps! Limited space left! CLICK HERE Sun/Saturn with Venus/Chiron/Eris all in Aries is reminding us to trust ourselves and believe in ourselves, or should I say our NEW Selves.  With these last transits many of us are starting anew in many different ways/realms of life.  These new beginnings can give us a new identity and it is that new identity that is young, tender, and vulnerable that we need to believe in. At the same time, we need to let go of our old identity whether it means coming down off a pedestal of pride or rising up from a self-effacing, shamed wounded child.  Let's remember, there is no hurry in mother nature.  The Sun will be in Aries for a month, Saturn for a few years, and Chiron will be in Taurus for a good seven years.  So, we're really just laying the foundation stones of a new self and we want to set them carefully and consciously. I have to give you the card I drew today from “The Power Deck,” after the report as it blew my mind!  It's BALANCE:The structure of your daily spiritual life must be built on a strong foundation in the physical world, like a pillar of selected shaman's stones balanced carefully one on another.  Take care of your body through diet and exercise.   Express your strength in acts of power, and bring greater awareness to the exchange of money.  Protect and nourish your family, and express your integrity by bringing balance into society and nature.  Then you will be prepared in the physical for higher spiritual learning.  Your being is like a spirit lodge, the foundation of which is rooted in physical manifestation – strong against the storms along the trail to higher consciousness.  To take power, make your spirit available.  Take your power and bring your physical and spiritual natures into balance. Is that not amazing!?  Practically sums up what I just said in today's report!  Love the confirmation!  Many blessings on your journey! Here's the link to my political/war report:  https://newparadigmastrology.com/resource-links/ And this week's song “Times Like These” by Jack Johnson!  https://youtu.be/P54ybJ0pX9g?si=F4KD-EwTpaqEbkeYSo Much Love,Kaypacha

Hola New Paradigmer!The illusion of time now speeding up,Can push me to pick up the pace.But I will stay tuned to Mother nature,Growing strong and slow with beauty and grace.☉Happy new beginning with the Aries Equinox New Moon!  As I discussed in today's report there is a WHOLE LOT GOING ON and I'm sure you're feeling it (on one level or another).  Our job, should we decide to accept it, is to not cave into external pressure and abandon our wellbeing, under some misguided crisis mentality, that it is necessary to "fight for our lives."  Fear is being perpetrated upon the collective as a means of control and it can be very effective.Rather than buy into the false narrative that someone outside of you can control your heart, mind, body, and soul, now is the time to step into our sovereign self.  It is time to claim our power as individuals, rebirth ourselves, renew ourselves, regenerative ourselves and shine our spiritual light even brighter than before!Now, in addition to this remodeling of our Self, it's important to keep in mind that we are the "salt of the earth."  We don't want to fortify and strengthen ourselves out of fear and need, but rather, as beautiful human beings naturally emerging into our mature expression.  Slow and steady wins the race, we're attuned to the natural rhythms and cycles of nature and our bodies and there is no rushing Mother Nature!  So chill, relax, don't fear, run, or try to escape, just breathe and follow your heart!  Blessed be! The song of the week is Gajumaru by Yaima  https://youtu.be/oFaYJ-Z9BYo?si=AmxIFNUzIPJUGZm2Come join me for my last scheduled retreat in the Swiss Alps this May!  There are only a few spots left:  https://newparadigmastrology.com/upcoming-events/swiss-alps-astrology-retreat-may-2026/For more information on Lucifer and Ahriman, search for them here:  https://rsarchive.org/ So Much Love,Kaypacha

An ill wind is blowing in the Swiss Alps, and it's going to take the combined might of a psychic teenager, a Scotsman in a wheelchair and a chimpanzee called Inga to do something about it - if they can hear themselves think over Iron Maiden being played at full blast. Rod and Adrian are tackling the maestro Dario Argento for the first time, but thankfully it's one of his more restrained efforts to make it easier. Donald Pleasence naturally gets plenty of air time, but also discussed is the continued ineptitude of the Italian/ Swiss police, what to do with several million unwanted flies and why you would try to escape in a boat when there's a perfectly good road right there to run down. It's a new season, dedicated to that great quiet man of British cinema, Donald Pleasence, who spent a great deal of time in the 1980s in Italy. We would love to hear from you about your favourite Donald Pleasence films from this period, or if you have ever been attacked by a chimp.You can get in touch with us, follow us on social media, buy our merch, and all that stuff, through our Linktree.

Alex is a qualified International Mountain Leader, Polar Guide, and a professional Photographer based in St. Moritz, Switzerland. From scaling the world's highest peaks to leading expeditions in the Arctic and Antarctica, she thrives where the wild meets the extreme. Her passion for high-altitude exploration took her on a relentless quest; climbing the highest mountain on every continent, culminating on the summit of Mt. Everest in 2018. She became the first ever Hungarian to climb the Seven Summits. This journey ignited her mission to guide others through the raw beauty of the mountains and beyond. In the winter, she guides private snowshoe and fat bike around St. Moritz; in the summer, she leads exhilarating hiking and mountain biking adventures across the Alps. Between her Alps seasons, she's found working in the Polar regions (Antarctica: guide, zodiac driver, lecturer and lead crevasse rescue guide. Arctic: guide, zodiac driver, lecturer and polar bear guard) Her expertise extends far beyond Europe, guiding bespoke expeditions across the globe. An endurance athlete at heart, Alex is always chasing the next adventure—whether Polar ski crossing, racing mountain bikes, or pushing limits in the mountains. As a professional photographer and drone pilot, she uses her lens to capture the world's most remote landscapes, advocate for environmental conservation, and document the stories of the Polar regions. Her work is deeply inspired by mountains, polar history, pioneering female explorers, and the delicate balance of nature. In her recent book: Beyond the Seven Summits: Finding Strength Where the Air is Thin, Alex shares her experiences of climbing these mountains, and she also explores the journey that shaped who she is today: all the highs and lows. I hope to bring these peaks closer to readers by including short historical notes alongside each climb and sharing everything she learned along the way. The book is also rich in photographs, helping to bring both the stories and these beautiful mountains vividly to life.

Last week, the world's elites gathered again in Davos, Switzerland, for the World Economic Forum (WEF). Of course, Klaus Schwab, WEF founder and long-standing chairman, opened the meeting. “The world faces critical challenges,” he proclaimed, in somber tones, and then went on to outline several “extremist” threats presently confronting our planet and its people. But have no fear, Mr. Schwab promised. “The future is shaped by us, and particularly shaped by us in this room.” Does anyone other than me hear the voice of George Orwell echoing through the Swiss Alps right now?

Seth takes a closer look at Trump's Davos speech in which he confused Greenland and Iceland, called windmills “losers” and mocked the president of France.Then, Heidi Gardner shares a story about a disastrous performance in high school and talks about life after "Saturday Night Live" and her dream of working for the Kansas City Chiefs.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

After 20 years in the health space, I've seen it all—but nothing compares to what I found in the Swiss Alps. In this video, I'm sharing why I'm returning to the Swiss Mountain Clinic for my 15th retreat July 12-26 and how “blood filtration” technology changed my perspective on detoxing forever. Our bodies are carrying a “Toxic Body Burden” of plastics, pesticides, and heavy metals that a green juice simply can’t fix. I'm pulling back the curtain on: What INUSpheresis and H.A.T. actually do to clean your blood. (You have two different technology choices for filtering toxins out in a procedure that takes a few hours.) Why your liver might be “stuck” (and why that leads to stubborn weight). The difference between a “spa” and a European functional medicine hospital. JOIN THE LIVE CLASS: Want a deep dive into the costs, the treatments, and the results? Join my live class on January 29th.
