🌟 Join us for episode 37 of Casual Temple! On this episode we explore the fascinating intersection of mediumistic art and Indigenous cultural practices with Alessandro Keegan, an accomplished visual artist, writer, and art history professor. The discussion contrasts the Western production mindset with traditional, spiritual artistic expressions, diving deep into the work of artists like Paulina Peavey, who integrates UFO phenomena and shamanistic rituals into her creations.

Keegan, with an MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and an MA from Brooklyn College, brings a diverse range of experiences to the table. We explore his unique journey from science to art, and how his works tap into psychological realms through abstract, geometric, and organic styles. His visionary experiences, combined with a background in gemology and mysticism, inspire art that touches on themes of virtual reality storytelling, emotional intelligence, and mindfulness practices.

You will hear about how Alessandro delves into metaphysical concepts like hypnopompic states, the simulation hypothesis, and the blurred lines between matter and spirit, offering fresh insights into how art can be a medium for personal healing and a deeper spiritual connectivity.

🌟 Welcome to Episode 33 of Casual Temple! In this enlightening episode, Jake Weaver shares his transformative journey from suburban youth to the creator and host of his podcast, "Midnight on Earth." Influenced by the psychedelic counterculture and the music of the Grateful Dead, Jake's experiences at concerts led to profound spiritual awakenings and encounters with psychic presences. 

Jake draws intriguing parallels between jam band culture and mystery schools, both of which facilitate personal transformation through energetic experiences. He reflects on the cultural impact of the Grateful Dead, the spread of psychedelics, and their shamanic elements, while also discussing the future potential of psychedelics in society and their possible legalization. 

Starting as a comedic take on politics, Jake's podcasting journey evolved into a platform for sharing spiritual insights, inspired by Art Bell's "Coast to Coast AM." His experiences with the Harmonic Egg, a healing technology using sound and light, further influenced his spiritual path. 

Jake explores the concept of predictive programming in media, the evolution of humanity towards love and connection, and the importance of daily spiritual practices. He emphasizes the distinction between body and consciousness, advocating for an identity aligned with angelic beings and higher morals. 

The episode concludes with thoughts on co-creating reality and the power of subconscious programming. Jake's narrative weaves together themes of music, mysticism, and metaphysical exploration, highlighting the profound impact of psychedelic experiences on personal growth and spirituality. Tune in to embark on this captivating journey with Jake Weaver.
