The Ancient Wisdom Salvage Yard

On the Ancient Wisdom Salvage Yard podcast, we investigate topics of interest to magick practitioners of all traditions, as well as anyone intrigued by the esoteric, fringe science, and what squirms beneath the skin of consensus reality. Each episode, we'll scrounge up some artifact from the Salvage Yard, look at it from a new angle, and see if we can't incorporate it into our own esoteric worldview.

On the Ancient Wisdom Salvage Yard podcast, we investigate topics of interest to magick practitioners of all traditions, as well as anyone intrigued by the esoteric, fringe science, and what squirms beneath the skin of consensus reality.  Each week, we'll scrounge up some artifact from the Salvage Yard, look at it from a new angle, and see if we can't incorporate it into our own esoteric worldview.

This week, psychic sensitive and magician Roni Jean Neal came to the studio to discuss a wide range of topics from from dreams to intuitive magick to the role of music in magick and meditation to some intriguing blow-by-blow descriptions of a couple of workings.  We talked about the interplay of intent versus the kind of energy you project in your day to day life.  We also discussed communication between occult practitioners and how the practice of magick is evolving before our very eyes.  Roni went on to describe the ritual that took place at the DKMU meetup in Pennsylvania in October of 2016, as well as a personal project in which she created a nexus within a dead tree, and what happened when that tree met its ultimate demise.

In our double-header this week, we first heard from the Mad Queen, a witch and occultist hailing from the Eastern United States. We discussed her early magickal influences and how her practice has evolved over the years, as well as subjects ranging from the role of poetry in magick to grass roots community-level working groups. MQ is active in the Domus Kaotica/Marauder Underground, as well as the Infinity Network and has been involved in several projects with both groups. Meet the Mad Queen at http://www.madqueen.org

Next, we spoke with Steven and Dee Dunne, husband an wife gray magicians, writers, and educators from right here in Detroit. Dee and Steven talked about the classes they teach locally and their magickal philosophies and backgrounds. In particular, we discussed dreams and Dee and Steven's individual approaches, as well as working with Muses and creativity. Steven has a new book out entitled Carrion, which he describes as "equal parts manifesto and story".

This week, we welcome former Wiccan High-Priestess, occultist, and hermetic magician Leslie Caradina back to the Ancient Wisdom Salvage Yard. This was the first in-studio interview with the new setup, and as promised in Episode 7, we discussed the events at ConVocation 2017. The conversation ranged from music to reincarnation to cosmology to quantum physics, and we talked about how our experiences at Con have begun to impact our lives.
