In this episode, which mark's the third anniversary of the launch of this podcast, we explore the New Monastacism movement, a concept that will inform the flavor of the podcast as I move into the future.  

Some works that I mentioned in the podcast: 

• The New Monastacism by Adam Bucko and Rory McEntee
• Anything by Beverly Lanzetta
• Anything by Richard Rohr or his faculty at the Center for Action in Contemplation
• Anything by LLewellyn Vaughn Lee
• Anything by Mirabai Starr

The first nine minutes of this episode are literally recorded over a bubbling cauldron, haha! If you find that sound to be a trigger for your misophonia, skip to after the nine minute mark. 

This episode is about the soul of our work in the world, collaboration, dreaming, and the hopeful changes we have already made together. I hope you'll tune in, over the cauldron.

In this week's podcast episode, we open with a poem by Dana Faudes. 

To experience another world we nust soften, open, re-imagine, and let go of our need to know what's next. Come into the sanctuary with me to start off this new year.

This week's episode challenges us to navigate through the hedge, the world of mists and fog and grey areas and thick undergrowth...the terrain of uncertainty and curiosity, where many things can be true at once. 

The difficulty of navigating this terrain, and the discomfort it brings, keeps us in the comfortable illusions of polarity that keep the machine of the world whizzing and clicking and beeping and churning. 

If you choose to enter this thick hedge with me, this world of paradox, I just ask that you open your heart and carry your lamp. There are many roots to trip over and things that look simple but are actually a mirage for a deeper and greater complexity. 

Shall we enter?

In this week's episode, we take a discerning look at shadow work and question the popular romanticized version of this powerful, and dangerous, practice.

I frequently reference the book Eyes Wide Open by Mariana Caplan, PhD, which holds valuable insights into the many pitfalls of modern spiritual seeking, and is required reading in the Gnostic Celtic Church Monastery.

Being in relationship with other humans, especially when we have had difficult encounters and traumas in our past, can be a really challenging endeavor. 

In this week's episode, I share some red flags I have encountered in relationships, and ways to open the door to deeper intimacy with people who are safe. 

If you are deeply compassionate, empathetic, and have a history of trauma, this episode is for you.

What do we do when we discover dividing lines within us? Places where outdated beliefs limit our growth and prevent the deepening of our wholeness?

In this week's episode we take another look at the way othering, divisiveness, exile, rigidity, dogma, undermines our relationships within ourselves and in the larger world.

If we want something in our lives to change, we have to be willing to change.

If we want to see clearly, we have to be willing to see what is uncomfortable.

If we want to impact the world around us, we must be willing to change the world within us. 

We can't keep doing what we've always done. It's time to change the game.

This episode is not flowery, it is not full of information, or education, or mythology. This episode is from the dying embers of the battlefield, the realm of the Phantom Queen, the place where there are no winners and losers, only lost souls that find themselves in the arms of a guiding power. 

From the arms of the Mother,

Please help me support Beck Lawrence, owner of The Serpent's Key, as she courageously endures discrimination from local law enforcement based on outdated Pennsylvania laws. 

We may never change the perception of the powerful, those who make and enforce the laws, but we can continue to stand on our virtue because of who we are, together.
