The rags to riches journey of Elvis Presley, the "king" of rock and roll, is well known. In a special interview with Gene and guest cohost Hercules Invictus, Miguel Conner, author of "The Occult Elvis: The Mystical and Magical Life of the King," reveals details that are not well known, how Elvis was a profound mystic, occultist, and shaman. Beginning with the unusual circumstances of his birth — and his stillborn twin brother — Conner traces the diverse thread of mysticism that runs through Presley’s life, drawing on firsthand accounts from the people closest to him, including his wife, Priscilla, the Memphis Mafia, and his spiritual advisors. He 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. And he also reveals how Elvis was a natural healer, telekinetic, psychic, and astral traveler who had significant mystical experiences and UFO encounters. Connor also looks at the conspiratorial and paranormal aspects of Elvis’s life. And what about the influence of a magical comic book super hero in the look of Elvis' famous costume that he wore during his live performances? His website: www.miguelconner.com.
