On this episode we continue our coverage of the Rune Walk with Algiz, Sowilo, and Valkyrie Herfjötur. Before we dive into the runes themselves, we discuss what it means to embody a spirit, or be a part of a spirit lineage or oversoul. We continue with the traditional meanings of the runes, the rune poems, what they meant for us and the gnosis we gained about these runes over the course of the month. This time we really dive deep into our journeys with this valkyrie and these runes. We also talk about names, naming, reincarnation, and their importance to this work, and so much more.

Welcome back Nightbirds! This is another one that I expect we might get some flack for but, again, I think it's an important conversation especially with the current astrology going into the foreseeable future. I've been grifted before, and it caused me to make some unwise decisions that led to a lot of material difficulty. Is it good magic to be hoodwinked? Let's dive into this topic!
What is a grifter? Is it a learning experience to be tricked? How can we open our minds and experience new realities without falling for the schemes of those who would part us with our hard earned coin? Angela, Lindsay, and I discuss all these topics, and more. I hope you enjoy the conversation.

Welcome back Nightbirds! On this episode we continue our Rune Walk Saga, covering the runes Eihwaz, Perthro, and Valkyrie Hlökk. Lindsay and I are rejoined by Luis Galindo and Matt Hughes. With these mysterious runes, we enter into some of the divisive discussions about interpretation. What is the true meaning of Perthro - dice cup or cosmic womb? Is Yggdrasil a Yew tree? We discuss these questions and many more. We talk about the connection of specific gods to specific runes. Is that a hard and fast rule? Finally, we discussed our experiences in journey and trance with the Valkyrie Hlökk - who left a unique and lasting impression on us.

Welcome back Nightbirds! On this episode, we discuss the mythopoetics of conspiracy. When is this type of thinking best suited? When is it less skillful? When to wax poetic, and when to take action. Can we do both? How can we navigate the post-truth madness of Time Wave Zero with our sanity (and our material conditions) not only intact, but flourishing?
This is another tough one that we think needs to be discussed at this time. I hope you enjoy the conversation.

This one is not to be missed, Not only did Lance share his amazing story of how he discovered Reiki healing, but we also talked about past lives, simulation theory, and hypnosis. We talked about how to have two-way conversations with parts of ourselves who may be out of alignment, and aspects of the other that we'd like to integrate into ourselves. We talked about the inner child, and the inner dragon, and how to unite with both of those powerful aspects, bringing them into relation with our conscious thought process. My mind was blown multiple times in this episode. I think yours will be too!

We wove our web of wyrd into a tapestry of many topics. We talked about death and the process of grieving. Of strange encounters on the road. Of spirits of place and the strange and often otherworldly geography of Turtle Island. Of reality tunnels, belief systems, magic as heightened awareness, and moving through liminal spaces. We talked about fear, and how to act in the face of it. And so much more.

We've been trying to get our schedules to sync up for a while now. So I'm excited to have him on the show and I'm excited to share the conversation with you nightbirds and loyal listeners. Thanks for flying with me. And enjoy the show.
On this episode I was joined by Lindsay Starke, a friend and fellow traveler, a magical practitioner, and a wizard in recovery. We chatted about a bevy of topics including recovery, remediating ancestral trauma, aliens, the ancient ones, Odin, lifting as a devotional practice, and so much more. Thanks for listening, and enjoy the show!
