This week’s episode sees us dust off the old VHS copy of the late 90s gnostic science fiction classic “Dark City,” written and directed by Alex Proyas. This is what your mom was talking about when you told her you wanted to see ‘The Matrix’ but she said “No, we have it at home,” with some scenes almost matching shot for shot visually. Perhaps more remarkably is how Dark City tackles similar themes on loan from ancient gnostic philosophy but does so in a way faithful to its science fiction roots in German expressionism where it finds inspiration in the fertile imaginations of Fritz Lang and Albin Grau, the creators of Metropolis and Nosferatu respectively. The result is a film which beneath its slick, noir surface is a thoughtful meditation on the dark side of spirituality, evolution and the destiny of the human soul. In the first half of the show we discuss some of the occult roots of the science fiction genre itself and what it has to do with the Aeon of Horus championed by Aleister Crowley before cutting into the dense symbolism in the film’s opening using the Tarot as our guide. In the extended show we visit the abode of Netzach and go deeper into Greek and even Hindu mythology to unpack some of the symbolism used in the film before discussing the overlap between The Strangers and their shadowy, real-life counterparts who manipulate our destiny from the circles beyond time. We hope you brought your Kabbalah glasses because we’ll be talking shop in this one. Thank you and enjoy the show!

This week’s episode was almost canceled due to complications with the wildfires here in California. Malachor, for instance, has been without power, battling to protect his home and preparing for evacuation if necessary. As such, we interrupt our normal programming to bring you some interesting and supposedly true stories we discovered while researching for the Shaver Mystery. (If you’d like to check out where these essays are compiled, along with many others check out Flying Ships, Humanoids, and Creatures of the Subterranean World by Gray Barker.) What follows are fantastic accounts of those who were lucky enough to slip between the cracks of the earth and catch a glimpse of the world below our feet; a heavenly world, lush with plant life and filled with vital energy - a forgotten land populated by a race of high tech giants who filled such abundant lands with marvelous, subterranean cities bustling with life. How might we find them? Who are they and what do they want with us? Keep listening to find out! Thank you and enjoy the show...

In this week’s episode we go so far down the rabbit hole that we encounter the mutated denizens of a lost race descended from Atlantean giants because this week we’re exploring the science-fiction world of Richard Sharp Shaver who, of all things, claimed these stories were none other than historical fact! Published in Amazing Stories Magazine in the 1940s with the help of editor Robert Palmer the Shaver Mystery took the world by storm and laid the foundation for UFOlogy and conspiracy culture that endures today. In the first half of the show we discuss Richard Shaver’s theophany of the lusty swamp witch, Nydia and how he came to know firsthand the denizens of the underworld. We also take a look at the ancient space language, a galactic commons of sorts that Shaver introduced to us and begin exploring the colorful details as they are described in his first published story “I Remember Lemuria.” In the extended episode we go further down the Shaver Rabbit Hole (that sounds pornographic somehow) and get into the vast menagerie of human alien animal hybrids that our ancient alien overlords created in their laboratories and populate the many worlds in space. We discuss the radioactive influence of the sun, megalithic monuments that still exist today and the origin of the devilish Dero who control the human elite from their high-tech machines far below the Earth’s surface. Thank you and enjoy the show!

In this week’s episode we gather around the fire and discuss New Year traditions, numerology and prophecies written in the stars. In the free section of the show we review some of the stranger happenings of 2024 which may continue to develop into revelations in 2025, specifically in the domain of advanced propulsion, alien life and secret government technology. We also do a fun breakdown of numerology, how to calculate your life path number and what to expect during the Chinese New Year of the Wooden Snake. In the extended version of the show we let Heka Astra off the leash to explain at depth the various planetary and zodiacal alignments which promise to turn 2025 into a historic year to be remembered for the rest of our lives. Some big high-lights include spooky Pluto moving into Aquarius, jovial Jupiter dipping his toes into Cancer and what biblical sized shockwave is coming when Saturn and Neptune get busy at one degree of Aries. It gets pretty esoteric and astrology heavy in the second half but we make sure to pause and point out what it all means, some historical precedence for what it meant in the past and why we should all get a large bucket of popcorn ready because already the lights have begun to dim, thank you and enjoy the show...

In this week’s episode we plunge deep into the Gospel of Judas, a gnostic manuscript which was lost for centuries, only to be recovered just a short time ago. While it’s true meaning is still argued over by scholars, we take on the challenge from an occult perspective and analyze the parts within using wisdom from both the Bible and ancient Egyptian religion. In the free section of the show we discuss the Kabbalistic symbolism behind the thirty pieces of silver that Judas received to sell Jesus out, tell the harrowing tale of how the missing codex was hidden from the public until only recently and the controversial heresies contained within the gospel.  In the extended version of the episode we continue our analysis of the text and see where it lines up with the wisdom in the Gospel of Thomas and begin to unpack the contents as they pertain to Jewish mysticism, gnostic cosmology and even a hint of modern day conspiracy theory. What exactly does it mean when Jesus elevates Judas above the other disciples and does that mean Judas really gets a happy ending to his story or not? Stay tuned in to find out, thank you and enjoy the show!

In this week’s episode we finally dive into the story of arguably the United Kingdom’s most powerful haunting; the case of The Black Monk of Pontefract. With Tim Hacker of the Cryptic Chronicles Podcast (www.CrypticChronicles.com), our story begins when the Farrar family purchased a new home built over land with a dark history only to be driven away when they realized their baby might be in danger. When the Pritchard's moved in shortly after, it would not be long until their world too would be turned completely upside down. With activity so powerful it could reliably spook a hardened skeptic there were times the Pritchard's even feared for their life. In the extended show we discuss the spectacular fall-out from the ill-fated exorcism the family performed and some of the most remarkable instances of high-strangeness ever recorded which shortly followed, often characterized by religious themes. Near the end we discuss if the Black Monk is truly a poltergeist, a ghost, an Elemental or even a demon while exploring a number of the psycho-spiritual factors which likely made the activity so potent and what finally stopped it. Thank you and enjoy the show! 

In this week’s episode we discuss:
What is a Poltergeist?
The Enfield Poltergeist vs. The Black Monk of Pontefract 
Local History 
The Farrar Family Encounters
