Ready to turn on, tune in, and drop out into some serious gnosis? I’m joined by Joseph L. Flatley to discuss his new book, The Occult Timothy Leary: The Tarot, Magical States, and Post-Terrestrial Evolution. We’ll explore the hidden esoteric life of a renowned psychedelic pioneer, tracing his transformation from a Harvard psychology professor into a fugitive philosopher of the occult. You’ll delve into the development of the eight-circuit model of consciousness and a unique interpretation of the Tarot designed to map human evolution from its unicellular origins to a post-terrestrial future. And we’ll further examine how Western mystical traditions and futuristic technological visions merged during the counterculture era to redefine human potential and the quest for immortality.
