Podcasts about Theosophy

Jeff Shepherd closes his mini-series with a clear, evidence-based theoretical interpretation of a developing global spiritual and legal framework. In this final episode, he assembles the full chain tying together the seven Noahide laws, the New Apostolic Reformation, the Kabbalistic concept of Tikkun Olam, and the doctrine of the Nitzotzot (divine sparks). Jeff traces how these elements interact — from their Talmudic and U.S. legal roots (Public Law 102-14) to the modern-day promotion of dominion theology and extra-biblical apostolic authority — and describes how this system could pressure Christian belief and practice. The episode identifies attractive cultural packaging (Tikkun Olam), mystical drivers (the Nitzotzot), and long-range strategic influences (Alice Bailey and Theosophy) that converge toward Jerusalem as a geopolitical and religious focal point. Jeff outlines practical red flags for ordinary Christians: teachings that elevate social repair or dominion above the finished work of the cross, language about an inner divine spark, extra-biblical revelation from modern apostles and prophets, softening of Christ's exclusive mediatorship, spiritual warfare models focused on territory rather than hearts, and untested adoption of Jewish mystical symbols. Listeners are given a clear call to action: hold fast to the testimony of Jesus, test every spirit, refuse any system requiring a 'mark,' and build resilient communities grounded in Scripture rather than apostolic networks. The episode closes on a note of confident hope, pointing to the ultimate victory of Christ, the reign of the martyrs, and the assurance that the stone cut without hands will shatter the opposing image. Jeff invites listeners to share the episode, subscribe for future content, and continue to read the Scriptures diligently like the Bereans. Want to Understand and Explain Everything Biblically?

Darren Grimes and Graham Dunlop launch their new Grimoire platform, a global book club built around 250 plus professionally narrated audiobooks, lunar-cycle book picks, and community participation. They also demo a new online Pegs and Jokers game, whil e walking through the shelves of the library and explaining how free access, founder memberships, and the inner sanctum work. https://pegsandjokers.ca/ https://www.skool.com/the-secret-teachings-book-club-1875   In this episode, Darren and Graham cover the launch setup, the membership model, and the structure of the new book club. They also preview the first book of the month, discuss how the shelves are organized, and share the thinking behind the game and the community features. Key topics In this episode: the Grimoire launches with more than 250 audiobooks, with the library expected to grow to around 260 soon. The free book of the month is The Secret Teachings of All Ages in an abridged edition, chosen because starting with the full 36 hour version would be too much for most listeners. Founder keeper and monthly initiate memberships unlock the full library, while the free tier gives access to the monthly featured book and community activity. The book club is organized around lunar cycles, with a new moon monthly pick and a full moon live read, creating a rhythm of one book per moon month. The community model includes chapter check-ins, passage discussions, Friday tangents, and a final live book council in the last week of each book month. Darren and Graham describe the inner sanctum as a deeper, earned area of the platform, accessible through participation rather than payment alone. The shelves span Hermetica and occult, theosophy, mysticism east and west, Atlantis and Fortiana, mind and prosperity, weird fiction, philosophy and classics, magic, and power and propaganda. They highlight standout titles such as The Purple Cloud, The Machine Stops, Atlantis by Ignatius Donnelly, The Book of Thoth, Psychic Self-Defense, The Power of Positive Thinking, and The Road to Serfdom. Graham demos Pegs and Jokers, explaining how the online version works, how the cards move pieces, and why it is meant to be played with friends and family across locations. They mention the platform is still being cleaned up and reorganized, including moving some books between shelves and adding PDFs and other support material.   Become a Lord or Lady with 1k donations over time.

Samuel tells stories of his years of discipleship under controversial spiritual teachers such as Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche and Thinley Norbu Rinpoche, offers his insights about how to be a vajrayana student, and reflects on what it takes to be the disciple of tough masters. … Also available on Youtube, iTunes, & Spotify – search ‘Guru Viking Podcast'. … Topics include: 00:00 - Intro 01:02 - Rude Awakenings 02:46 - Child of the holocaust 05:03 - Arriving in America 07:18 - Interest in literature and politics 08:21 - Working for Kennedy 09:32 - Disillusionment with politics 11:16 - Exploring spiritual traditions 12:36 - Theosophy and Buddhism 14:56 - First satori 15:42 - Samuel's mother's preference for Russia 17:24 - Difficulties in America as a refugee and becoming a citizen 10:26 - Samuel's resilience and processing past trauma in meditation 22:22 - Becoming part of the Kennedy office 25:02 - Refugee confidence 26:16 - Samuel's doubts about himself 28:57 - Witnessing politicians lying about Vietnam 30:42 - Having a breakdown 32:32 - Disappointing spiritual teachers and politicians 34:15 - Experience with Lama Anagarika Govinda 38:17 - Developing trust in spiritual teachers 39:42 - Founding of Shambala Publications 41:00 - Years of discipleship under Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche 43:14 - Being with tough gurus 44:10 - Skepticism about Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche 45:34 - Death of Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche 46:43 - How to be a Vajrayana student 49:56 - Samuel's special relationship with Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche 51:37 - Stories about Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche's personal teaching 54:44 - Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche's dark side 58:20 - Comparing enlightened teachers 01:03:09 - Becoming a disciple of Thinley Norbu Rinpoche 01:11:24 - Lineage stories are real 01:12:31 - Lama's commission to Samuel 01:13:19- So easy to miss spiritual opportunities 01:15:19 - Rude Awakenings, breadth and depth 01:16:12 - Why “Rude Awakenings”? … To purchase “Rude Awakenings: vist: - https://www.shambhala.com/rude-awakenings.html For more interviews, videos, and more visit: - https://www.guruviking.com Music ‘Deva Dasi' by Steve James

We Watched a White Woman "Channel" Quetzalcoatl... So You Don't Have ToCan someone really channel Quetzalcoatl? Or is it just another example of New Age spirituality borrowing from Indigenous traditions without understanding them?In this special bonus episode of Tales From Aztlantis, Kurly Tlapoyawa and Ruben Arellano Tlakatekatl sit down together in the same room for a live reaction to one of the strangest DVDs they've ever encountered: Quetzalcoatl Speaks, a 2010 presentation featuring self-described psychic and trance channeler Cindy Riggs, who claims to allow Quetzalcoatl to speak through her body.The episode begins after Ruben's visit to New Mexico, where the hosts spend the day exploring Petroglyph National Monument before Kurly talks about stumbling across the DVD at a free table outside a bookstore. Intrigued by the bizarre premise, they decide to watch it together with open minds, hoping for an interesting discussion of Mesoamerican philosophy, spirituality, or history. Instead, they find themselves witnessing nearly two hours of rambling New Age metaphysics, internet metaphors, energy fields, and vague spiritual jargon that bears little resemblance to anything found in Nahua sources.As the film unfolds, Cindy Riggs recounts her spiritual journey, claiming that an Aztec spirit guide named "Can" prepared her over decades to become a vessel for Quetzalcoatl. She describes psychic development, Reiki, hypnosis, past-life regression, remote viewing, energy healing, and eventually trance channeling before finally introducing the night's guest: Quetzalcoatl himself. The hosts examine each of these claims while comparing them to what is actually known about Nahua traditions and Indigenous spirituality.Once the "channeling" begins, however, the promised appearance of Quetzalcoatl quickly turns into a stream of generic New Age advice involving chakras, energy frequencies, internet service providers, multidimensional consciousness, extraterrestrials, and raising one's vibrational frequency. Rather than offering insights rooted in Nahua philosophy, language, or ceremony, the supposed Quetzalcoatl delivers what Kurly and Ruben describe as little more than motivational self-help mixed with technological metaphors.Throughout the commentary, the hosts balance humor with serious criticism. They discuss how Indigenous figures like Quetzalcoatl are frequently appropriated by modern spiritual movements, often stripped of their historical and cultural context in favor of universalized New Age beliefs. They also explore why so many sincere people are drawn to these movements, and how convincing performances can sometimes overshadow genuine scholarship and authentic Indigenous traditions.The conversation eventually broadens into a discussion of Western occultism, Helena Blavatsky, Aleister Crowley, Jack Parsons, L. Ron Hubbard, psychedelic experimentation, Theosophy, and how some of these ideas eventually found their way into modern interpretations of Mexicayotl. While acknowledging that these topics deserve deeper research, Kurly and Ruben identify fascinating historical connections worth exploring in future episodes.Equal parts comedy, media criticism, and cultural commentary, this episode asks an important question: What happens when Indigenous traditions become detached from the people who created them?Topics DiscussedReviewing Quetzalcoatl Speaks (2010)Claims of trance channeling QuetzalcoatlNew Age spirituality and Indigenous appropriationPsychic mediums, Reiki, hypnosis, and energy healingQuetzalcoatl versus modern spiritual reinterpretationsWhy vague spiritual language can sound profoundThe commercialization of Indigenous traditionsTheosophy and Helena BlavatskyAleister Crowley and Western occultismJack Parsons, L. Ron Hubbard, and esoteric movementsPsychedelics, occultism, and historical speculationWhy historical context matters when discussing Nahua traditionsMemorable MomentsDiscovering the DVD on a free table outside a bookstoreWaiting nearly twenty minutes for Quetzalcoatl to finally "arrive"The hosts' disbelief when the ancient Feathered Serpent begins talking about internet service providersWondering why Quetzalcoatl never corrects the repeated mispronunciation of his own nameComparing the presentation to an infomercial, motivational seminar, and software terms and conditionsImagining what an actual Nahua philosophical discourse from Quetzalcoatl might have sounded like insteadFavorite Quotes"We tried to keep an open mind.""I would have been more impressed if he had just started speaking Classical Nahuatl.""What the hell are you talking about?""People will pay for anything.""The truth is like medicine. It doesn't always taste good, but it is always good for you."Connect With Tales From AztlantisIf you enjoyed this episode, subscribe to Tales From Aztlantis, leave a review, and share it with someone interested in Mesoamerican history, archaeology, Indigenous philosophy, and exposing pseudohistorical claims.Listen wherever you get your podcasts.listener comments?

Can Alfred North Whitehead's process philosophy offer a new way of understanding how magic works?Join me live on Saturday, 1 August 2026, at 12 pm EST for a fascinating conversation with Dr Darren Iammarino of the Department of Theology and Religious Studies at the University of San Diego.We will explore the philosophy of magic between 1875 and 1975, beginning with Spiritualism, Theosophy, William James, and the emergence of spirit and energy models. Our central focus will be Whitehead's process philosophy and its potential to explain magic through an informational and relational model of reality, in which events, consciousness, agency, and influence are interconnected processes rather than isolated substances.We will also consider how yoga, Tantra, and the Yoga Sūtras conceptualise siddhis, or supernormal powers, alongside the influence of perennialism on modern Western interpretations of magic.Can process thought help us move beyond the familiar opposition between supernatural and psychological explanations? Could magic be understood as participation in a dynamic and interconnected cosmos? Join us live and bring your questions for the discussion.Discover more from Dr Darren Iammarino:YouTube: https://youtube.com/@ToTwoTruth?si=eUy8QTaRVEadbkTIBooks and author page: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Darren-Iammarino/author/B00GJ9KV1Y/allbooks?ccs_id=19e6820b-d273-45bc-bdbb-87d6d4faeaa3CONNECT & SUPPORT

This week, I'm honoured to welcome all three founding members of Sweden's legendary Vinterland - Andreas Jonsson, Pehr Skjoldhammer and D.F. Bragman - to Into The Necrosphere. Not only is this their first appearance on the show, but it also marks the first long-form podcast interview any of the three founding members have ever given together, making this a genuinely historic conversation for fans of one of black metal's most revered cult bands. We explore the story behind “Welcome My Last Chapter” - from its enduring legacy and why it continues to resonate decades later, to the band's long absence, their return to the stage, the evolution of their songwriting, and why Vinterland has always followed its own path rather than the expectations of the black metal scene. We also revisit the chaotic journey that nearly prevented the band from making it to Fortress Festival, reflect on what it means to create timeless music, and discuss what the future holds for Vinterland after one of metal's most unlikely and celebrated comebacks. On the Weekly News Rant, Karl Haikara returns to the show to round up the latest releases from Terrestrial Hospice, Taake, Forbidden, Rapid and others for judgement. We discuss the recently announced formation of Towards The Sinister, list the metal subgenres we simply can't get into, pay tribute to the late, great Lou Koller from Sick of it All and on the Swirly of the Week we take aim at black metal fans afraid of buying a T-shirt without first checking whether it's socially acceptable.

Before the Backrooms became an internet horror universe, people were already dreaming about them.Empty malls. Endless hotel hallways. Yellow rooms. Schools that rearrange themselves. Office corridors with no exits. Houses with impossible extra floors. Doors that open into places that should not exist. Long before Kane Pixels, 4chan, and the modern Backrooms myth, people were describing the same kind of liminal spaces through recurring dreams, lucid dreaming, astral projection, sleep paralysis, psychedelic experiences, and out-of-body states.In this episode of Idiot Mystic, we look at the Backrooms as more than just a creepypasta. Are they fake? Are they folklore? Are they a shared dream location? Are they a modern version of the labyrinth, the astral plane, the underworld, or the waiting room between one state of consciousness and another?This one goes through Mall World, dream geography, hypnagogic states, sleep paralysis entities, DMT waiting rooms, astral projection reports, Theosophy, Robert Monroe, non-places, and the spiritual horror of being trapped in a hallway with no ritual, no guide, and no obvious exit.The Backrooms might not be “real” in the simple way people argue about online. But they are real as a dream pattern, real as a modern myth, real as an altered-state environment, and real as a symbol for what it feels like to be stuck between who you were and who you are becoming.And yes, I can help you get there.Not by summoning carpet demons or turning internet horror into theology. But by paying attention to dreams, thresholds, recurring places, and the strange architecture your own soul keeps building when you sleep.If you have ever dreamed of an empty mall, yellow hallway, endless school, impossible hotel, strange basement, or a room that felt more real than it should have, send it to me. I want to start mapping this stuff properly.Podcast, sound baths, dream weirdness, occult history, spiritual analysis, and hopefully fewer fluorescent hallways in real life.Website: https://idiotmystic.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/idiotmysticTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@idiotmysticDiscord: https://discord.gg/dXKjhZrZmM

Near the end of the Theosophy series, Rey examines the strange lives of Peter Ouspensky and John G. Bennett, who were followers of Gurdjieff, but also gurus in their own right with many followers of their own. They struggled with the legacy of Gurdjieff in different ways, but both were in pretty sad states by the end of their lives.

Put on your blindfolds, fill a wine glass to the brim and get ready to listen to the blather of a 35,000-year-old Lemurian god/warrior named Ramtha. It is only possible through the body of JZ Knight, a former cable television saleswoman who channeled that old dude after placing a paper pyramid on her head in 1977. And she has made millions off of it. Strange Country cohosts Beth and Kelly discuss the supposed enlightenment JZ shills as Ramtha's mouthpiece and whether channeling Ramtha might be the cure for Kelly's perimenopausal symptoms.

Tara Isabella Burton (DPhil, University of Oxford; Visiting Fellow, Mercatus Center, George Mason University; Visiting Research Fellow, Institutional Flourishing Lab, Catholic University of America) is a theologian and culture critic, and the author of Self-Made: Creating Our Identities from Da Vinci to the Kardashians (Public Affairs, 2022) and Strange Rites: New Religions for a Godless World (Public Affairs, 2020). She is a regular contributor on religion and culture to The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, and has lectured and taught seminars at Yale University, Hobart and William Smith College, Radford University, and Covenant College. Her research has been supported by the Mercatus Center and the Robert Novak Foundation. Burton is currently at work on a book about the influence of the Western esoteric tradition, from alchemy to Freemasonry to 19th-century "occult" practices like Theosophy and spiritualism, in the development of what we think of today as "scientific progress." She argues that the category of the "magical" should be understood as part of a wider theological tradition of understanding what it means for human beings to have mastery over nature. Old Gods, to be published by Convergent (Penguin Random House) in 2026, will trace this influence to the resurgence of interest in "occult" practices in contemporary Silicon Valley culture.  Visit Sacred Writes: https://www.sacred-writes.org/templeton-working-group Visit Tara Isabella Burton: http://www.taraisabellaburton.com  

George Gurdjieff was never formally a theosophist, but his "doctrine" contained a very similar backstory, and many of his followers were former theosophists. Gurdjieff was a practice-oriented despotic cult leader, whose follwers believed him to be one of the Masters of the Great White Brotherhood described by Helena Blavatsky.

In the fourth episode of our series on Theosophy, Rey talks about the founder of Anthroposophy, Austrian guru Rudolf Steiner. Steiner started started out as a Theosophist, but was much too ambitious and much too German for that movement. --- Subscribe to https://patreon.org/tenepod https://bsky.app/profile/tenepod.bsky.social https://x.com/tenepod

Beginning with the unusual circumstances of his birth—and his stillborn twin brother—Conner traces the diverse thread of mysticism that runs through Elvis Presley's life, drawing on firsthand accounts from the people closest to him, including his wife, Priscilla, the Memphis Mafia, and his spiritual advisors.  Conner argues that Elvis was well-versed in the esoteric practices of sex magic, meditation, astrology, and numerology and had a deep familiarity with Kabbalah, Gnosticism, Theosophy, and Eastern traditions. He also reveals how Elvis was a natural healer, telekinetic, psychic, and astral traveler who had significant mystical experiences and UFO encounters. Looking at the conspiratorial and paranormal aspects of Elvis's life, the author explores the "Elvis visitations" that have occurred since the King's death and the general high weirdness of his life. As Conner convincingly argues, Elvis was not just a one-of-a-kind rock-and-roller. He was the greatest magician America ever produced.On Today's Show, we hype you up for tomorrow's big release of the summer blockbuster, Disclosure Day, by interviewing someone who was waiting in line for the screening and getting their thoughts on the movie and the real Disclosure Day! Then, we talk to Miguel Connor about whether Elvis was always destined to become who he was and what shaped his spirituality. some of the occult practices Elvis got into, and his abilities... and some of the appearances Elvis made... after he died!Learn more about Miguel Conner here:  https://www.miguelconner.com/Check out Miguel's podcast (Aeon Byte Gnostic Radio) here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC67NBVrem2dRsYUreRyjSsA/feedThere are new and different (and really cool) items all the time in the Darkness Radio Online store at our website! . check out the Darkness Radio Store!   https://www.darknessradioshow.com/store/Want to be an "Executive Producer" of Darkness Radio?

My recent chat with Jordan E. Petersen on the excellent Gods, Ghosts and UFOs Podcast. Follow them on substack: https://ggupodcast.substack.com/ What's Jo's Favorite Fairy Sighting? "This week, Jordan finally gets to ask the host of the singular Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast the most annoying question he can come up with, and she does not disappoint. Jo Hickey-Hall has been collecting these stories for years. And the one she leads with is hers: a stick being made of literal sticks, running down a beach in Jersey with a gait so strange it made everyone watching laugh. Years later, a man in northeast England describes seeing almost exactly the same thing.  We talk about why these things, these beings, whatever they are, resist being accurately described or depicted. They're so vivid in the moment, but as soon as you start to try to put words on them, they seem to slip away.  But we're doing our best. You can come judge for yourself. Highlights: Jo Hickey-Hall, folklorist, social historian, host of The Modern Fairy Sightings Podcast (also find her at scarlettofthefae.com and preorder her book here) Nerd Critic Jo's favorite fairy sighting The shadow-cutters A stick being made of sticks The Brazilian Ent (a tree trunk that walked, then tried to become a man, and didn't quite get it right) The disconnect between perception and description “I can see it in my head, but it just doesn't seem to translate into words or drawings” Rudolf Otto, The Idea of the Holy Mysterium tremendum and mysterium fascinans Why one guy runs away and the other is filled with awe Conditioning, inheritance, and the holding place we make for the uncanny Orbs in the context of UFOs, fae, and consciousness Conscious plasma :) Different witnesses, different filters/stations/signals How to learn to see auras (try it at a conference with a white screen behind the speaker) The Genius Loci Two strangers see the same being in the same place, twenty years apart “Your daemon is really driving you” How to actually meet the fae Picking up litter is an offering Thresholds: doorways, dawn and dusk, the line where the beach meets the sea, the transitions in your own life Theosophy and the elemental beings — Blavatsky, Steiner, Paracelsus The London flat haunted by goblins (near a crossroads, near water) Are the fae hitching lifts on trains and trucks? Fairies as emergent phenomena of place (this is what humans are, actually) Part two maybe? (with Mal (and Tom???)) And in the epilogue…on Gods, Ghosts and UFOs A disembodied head in a kitchen window Why you can't tear down a house to make a haunting go away How UFOs are seen so often over a Neolithic burial chamber that locals don't bother to look up anymore ⭐️ JOIN THE MODERN FAIRY SIGHTINGS COMMUNITY ⭐️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/c/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ If you're looking for exclusive bonus material, monthly zoom chats with like-minded folks, access to the Discord chat channels, quiet meditation gatherings and meeting other members, join us at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.patreon.com/c/themodernfairysightingspodcast/membership⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ S U P P O R T If you'd prefer to support the Modern Fairy Sightings with a one off donation, you can ‘buy me a coffee' and I'd be very grateful

 Tower of Babel 2.0 is happening NOW. Stephen of Biblical Hitmen joins Nephilim Death Squad to expose the manufactured awakening pushing humanity straight into Lucifer's false light.In this deep dive, Stephen breaks down the Great Awakening map, Edgar Cayce's Atlantis prophecies, the Hall of Records under the Sphinx's paw, and how the “Sons of the Law of One” vs “Sons of Belial” narrative is the ultimate Hegelian dialectic. They cover Alice Bailey's Externalization of the Hierarchy, Theosophy root races, Sophia as the counterfeit Holy Spirit, the Harlot of Revelation, and how Joe Rogan, psychedelics (ibogaine), Graham Hancock, Randall Carlson, and David Wilcock are all feeding the same Atlantean Gnostic gospel.David Wilcock's “return to source,” starseeds, prison planet truths, and the sudden mainstreaming of the Book of Enoch and Genesis 6 are all dissected as the next layer of deception. Stephen explains why this isn't random exposure of the New World Order — it's initiation into the New Age universal religion that counterfeits Christ.If you've ever wondered why conspiracy truth is being allowed to spread right now, this episode reveals the endgame: Tower of Babel 2.0 — humanity uniting under one “divine source” (Satan masquerading as light).Timestamps:00:00 – Intro & Announcements08:00 – Manufactured Awakening & Timing of Exposure22:00 – Great Awakening Map & Return to Source35:00 – Edgar Cayce, Atlantis, Hall of Records & Sphinx Prophecy48:00 – Sons of the Law of One vs Sons of Belial1:05:00 – Alice Bailey, Sophia, Gnostic Gospel & Harlot System1:25:00 – Joe Rogan, Psychedelics, Ibogaine & Cultural Manufacturing1:45:00 – Book of Enoch, Nephilim Debate & Why It's Being Pushed2:05:00 – Biblical Response: Gospel Over Gnosis (Ephesians 3:17-19) Support the show & get early access, ad-free episodes & community:https://patreon.com/nephilimdeath squad  Guest Links:Stephen – Biblical HitmanYouTube: Biblical HitmanPatreon: patreon.com/thebiblicalhitmanSpotify / Apple Podcasts / Spreaker: Biblical Hitman  Merch & more: TopLobster.com  Don't forget to OBEY SUBMIT & COMPLY.

In this wide-ranging conversation, researcher and author Jacob Nordangård joins Alex Sachon to unpack how technocracy is emerging as the dominant underlying trend behind the major geopolitical events taking place today — from the Iran War, to the energy crisis, to the rise of technocracy, to forced mass migration, to the revelation of the long-hidden UFO mystery. Drawing on his books Temple of Solomon, Rockefeller: Controlling the Game, and The Global Coup d'etat, Jacob traces how elite networks have been orchestrating these crises for decades — and where it's all heading.Jacob's books & website: https://jacobnordangard.seJacob's Substack: https://drjacobnordangard.substack.com/Alex's website: https://www.alexsachon.com/Table of Contents0:00 Introduction & Background1:08 Iran War & Third Temple4:39 Temple of Solomon Book & Occult Networks9:40 Transhumanism & Elite Networks12:43 Armageddon Archetype Across Ideologies14:28 Energy Crisis & Geopolitical Restructuring16:40 Global Technates & New World Order18:51 Multipolar World & Technocratic Branches25:03 Forced Immigration & Surveillance State35:29 Eugenics, Depopulation & mRNA41:06 Climate Change & Rockefeller Origins45:11 Rockefellers vs. Rothschilds49:47 UFO Phenomenon & Hidden Technology58:44 Closing & Guest ResourcesTopics covered: Iran War, Third Temple, Zionism, Bible prophecy, Theosophy, transhumanism, Club of Rome, Club of Budapest, Ervin Laszlo, Rockefeller Brothers Fund, technocracy, multipolar world order, BRICS, Technates, COVID lockstep, forced migration, biometric surveillance, eugenics, mRNA, climate change origins, Kissinger, Rothschilds, UFO disclosure, Tesla, ether physics, global government

In this episode, I spoke with author Robert Guffey about his Book "Hollywood Haunts the World".  In Hollywood Haunts the World: An Investigation into the Cinema of Occulted Taboos, Robert Guffey deconstructs the most powerful taboos of the twentieth century (and the initial decades of the twenty-first century) by analyzing how disturbing and transgressive ideas involving Theosophy, Gnosticism, Freemasonry, Darwinian Evolution, Surrealism, Freudian and Jungian psychology, race relations, paranoia, UFOs, xenophobia, political conspiracies, the JFK assassination, virtual reality, and alternate dimensions have been reflected in films―both American and foreign―throughout the past one hundred years.

This book is everything I'd hoped for and then some! If you've ever been interested in Rosicrucianism or Theosophy, or Blavatsky's work in general, this books slaps with wisdom.

What is "ascension"? Historically, it was the awakening of the true self—a profound integration of body and spirit. From the Great Pyramid of Giza to the avenues of Teotihuacán, sacred sites served as external maps of the human vessel. Through drama and ritual, seekers used these "natural earthly wombs" to transcend the illusory ego. The stages of conscious awareness mirror the natural world, aligning with the Yugas of the Puranas, just as the chakras once corresponded to the classical planets. In the West, these concepts survived through the transfiguration of Christ and the cryptic allegory of the "thief in the night." Today, however, the narrative has shifted. Influenced by Theosophy, the "I AM" Activity, and the Law of One, modern New Age "Lightworkers" describe ascension through a lens of physical symptoms: joint pain, bruising, failing eyesight, and memory loss. While framed as "DNA activation" or "shifting vibrations," these symptoms bear a striking resemblance to the natural process of aging. Join us as we trace the lineage of ascension—from ancient esoteric mastery and the channeling of George Van Tassel to the modern intersection of superficial physics and spiritual longing.*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Receiving forgiveness from God and granting forgiveness to others are two fundamental and related principles in Christianity. Even though all positive religions emphasize the latter, many do not subscribe to the former. You will be surprised what Buddhism, Hinduism, New Age Spirituality, Shinto, Theosophy, The Law of Attraction, A Course in Miracles, and even the biblical revelation teach concerning this all-important concept that is so essential to the healing of the heart.Comparative religion website: www.thetruelight.net Ministry website: www.shreveministries.org The Catholic Project website: www.toCatholicswithlove.org Video channel: www.YouTube.com/mikeshreveministries All audio-podcasts are shared in a video format on our YouTube channel.

What if one of the simplest children's games was never meant to be a game at all?On today's episode of The Conscious Diva Podcast, I'm joined by Polina Rud, author of the new book The Cosmic Game of Snakes and Arrows: An Oracle for Mapping Your Destiny — a modern reimagining of an ancient spiritual teaching that includes the original game board itself.Long before Chutes and Ladders appeared in playrooms, there was Gyan Chaupar — the Game of Knowledge. It wasn't designed for entertainment, but for awakening. In this conversation, we explore:- How this ancient spiritual map became a modern board game, what was lost when meaning was stripped away.- Using the game as an oracle and a powerful divinatory tool. - How The Cosmic Game of Snakes and Arrows invites us to work consciously with destiny, choice, and self-awareness.- Polina explains how each square/tile on the board provides a philosophical key representing different levels of human experience. About Polina: Polina Rud is a doctoral candidate in art history at Moscow University with a master's in international relations. She is an art curator and lecturer with expertise in Theosophy, Nordic runic oracles, and Hindu astrology. She combines therapeutic experience, including mental health and suicide risk training at UNAM, with diverse spiritual teachings, and is the co-founder of El Mundo Duele, an NGO that provides psychological support to human rights and climate activists.  She's also a renowned gyan caupar guide; helping individuals uncover hidden obstacles. She lives in Mexico City.https://polinarud.comhttps://www.instagram.com/_polinarud/Thank you so much for listening, and thanks to my sponsors.This Episode is brought to you by: • The Sattva Collection - 10% off with code TheConsciousDiva• Birds & Beans Organic Coffee - 10% off with DIVA2025The Conscious Diva Podcast wouldn't be possible without your support!

Can wisdom be taught? What if it were more about questions than finding "the answer"? How might reading be a meditative practice? Can writing from earlier centuries provide inspiration without mediation by academic experts?Valentin Gerlier is a scholar, musician and author, who is also the founder of the School of Sophia – a new hybrid educational platform that explores these sorts of subjects. “Inspired by the ancient Wisdom Schools”, its seminars are grounded in collective inquiry, with experiential insights as part of the process.Our conversation considers how wisdom relates to worldly action. The school's curriculum asks about power: “Can it flourish for the good, or is it something to surrender?” Could a deeper intelligence help? In addition to discussing that, we explore some of the influences on Valentin's work, including:* Mysticism, Joseph Milne and the Temenos Academy* Krishnamurti, Theosophy and Brockwood Park School* Satish Kumar, Schumacher College and Small is BeautifulThe texts for this term are The Tempest by William Shakespeare and Simone Weil's Gravity and Grace. A recorded introductory meeting will be archived here. Weekly sessions are on Mondays from February 2, with in-person gatherings to follow.

Book your 2026 reading at : www.jilljardineastrology.com/shop Buy Jill's Book:  Sacred Sound Formulas to Awaken the Modern Mind:  www.jilljardine.com Neptune in Aries from 2026-2039 marks a powerful new collective cycle where spiritual vision seeks bold, immediate expression. Neptune governs dreams, intuition, imagination, and collective consciousness—along with illusion and confusion—while Aries represents action, courage, individuality, and initiation. Together, they fuse inspired ideals with raw impulse, urging people to act on their visions rather than merely believe in them. Collectively, this transit signals new beginnings in spiritual, creative, and humanistic directions. There is a shift away from passive, Piscean spirituality toward action-oriented spiritual sovereignty, where individuals follow inner knowing rather than external authorities. This may manifest through activism, innovation, creative leadership, and new social or spiritual movements grounded in personal purpose. Charismatic leaders and trailblazers are likely to arise, replacing outdated power structures. Historically, the last Neptune-in-Aries cycle (1862–1875) coincided with ideological upheaval, war, rapid invention, and major spiritual movements—from evangelical revivals to esoteric traditions like Spiritualism and Theosophy. Similar patterns may re-emerge now: visionary breakthroughs, cultural renewal, and technological advances, alongside fanaticism, misinformation, cult dynamics, and conflicts driven by misplaced zeal. On the global stage, Neptune in Aries can dissolve old leadership models and ignite radical shifts in governance, religion, and innovation. While this may bring enlightened reform and pioneering solutions, it also carries risks of authoritarianism, spiritual delusion, media deception, and impulsive reactions to uncertainty. At its best, this transit encourages courageous compassion—turning dreams into action while serving the greater good. At its worst, it can blur truth and inflate egos. The key lesson is discernment: balancing inspiration with grounding, strength with empathy, and individuality with collective responsibility. When integrated wisely, Neptune in Aries ignites a divine creative spark capable of reshaping culture, spirituality, and personal purpose for an entire generation. Here's a summary for the impact on each Zodiac sign but listen to the episode for more details: Aries: A profound identity reset begins. Old roles, relationships, and self-images dissolve so you can redefine who you truly are. Intuition and creativity increase, but clarity and health must be prioritized to avoid drifting or burnout. This is a powerful period for spiritual leadership and personal reinvention—stay grounded. Taurus: A deeply introspective cycle focused on release, healing, and spiritual integration. Past patterns surface for closure. Ideal for therapy, meditation, and creative work, though escapism should be avoided. Surrender leads to renewal. Gemini: Your social circles and future goals evolve. You may find your true tribe, become involved in activism, or align with visionary groups. Inspiration is high, but discernment is essential to avoid idealizing people or movements. Cancer: Career paths may dissolve or shift dramatically, pushing you toward work aligned with your soul purpose. Disillusionment can lead to meaningful reinvention. Avoid over-giving at work and maintain emotional boundaries. Leo: Your worldview expands through travel, education, or spiritual study. New philosophies and adventures beckon. Stay discerning—some opportunities or teachings may not be what they seem. Virgo: Deep psychological and financial transformation unfolds. Old fears, attachments, and money patterns dissolve. This is a powerful rebirth cycle—clarity, boundaries, and conscious financial choices are key. Libra: Relationships are tested and redefined. You may experience spiritual connections or idealize partners. Balance, mutual exchange, and healthy boundaries are essential to avoid co-dependence or disappointment. Scorpio: Daily routines, work life, and health need conscious restructuring. Intuitive approaches to wellness and service are beneficial, but consistency and practical systems are crucial to avoid burnout or chaos. Sagittariius: A fertile period for artistic expression, romance, and passion projects. Imagination and inspiration flourish. Avoid unrealistic expectations in love or creative ventures. Capricorn: Your sense of home, family, and emotional security evolves. Changes in living situations or family responsibilities may arise. Healing ancestral patterns and creating new foundations bring long-term stability. Aquarius: Your voice becomes more intuitive, creative, and influential. Writing, teaching, and visionary communication are favored. Stay mindful of misinformation or unclear thinking. Pisces: Your relationship with money, self-worth, and material security shifts. New income visions may emerge, but practicality is essential. Spiritual values reshape how you define succe Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In the 1960s and '70s, yoga teacher–turned–self-proclaimed messiah Anne Hamilton-Byrne built one of Australia's most shocking cults—an LSD-fueled blend of New Age mysticism, stolen children, and her own delusions of divine destiny. With doctors, psychiatrists, and academics convinced she was the Second Coming of Christ, Anne created The Family, a secretive compound where kids endured years of isolation and abuse.

We're back with Part 2 of our deep dive into Helena Blavatsky—the controversial, chaotic, and endlessly woo woo founder of modern occultism. In this episode, we follow Madame Blavatsky's journey to America, where she teams up with Henry Steele Olcott and steps fully into her era as a spiritualism celebrity. From the founding of Theosophy to her many scandals, disputed “miracles,” and the wild amount of cultural appropriation baked into her work, we're unpacking the messy, fascinating legacy that shaped New Age spirituality, occult history, and the modern mystic movement.

They offered initiation into ancient Christian mysticism, ritual communion with the spirits, an understanding of reincarnation, and the destined transition to inhabiting a "solar-body" in the Sirius star-system. But it all ended in murderous blood sacrifice and fire—and 74 dead believers. What is this dark preoccupation with sacrifice and ritual killing in the name of metaphysical belief? Grotesque to modern ears, yet quite commonplace historically. Julian covers the late 20th-century French cult, The Order of the Solar Temple, for his Roots of Conspirituality series. They identified with the Knights Templar, weaving Rosicrucianism and Theosophy into a tangled web of fraud, spiritual deception, and the dramatic, tragic deaths of everyone involved.
