Our Australian triptych opens with the vibrantly colorful creation myth of the Rainbow Serpent, dreamt into all its glorious being by the indigenous peoples populating this island nation. Together, we’ll enter the Dreamtime and explore the harmony of being connected to all of history and everything that’s yet to come in a land of eternal being. For dessert, we discuss the role of serpents in other mythologies in the ancient world, and we add a touch of contemporary flavor as the cherry on top of this fabulous sundae.Podcast promo from Curious Nyxsins https://linktr.ee/CuriousNyxsinsTo stay on top of all the latest from Pineapple Pizza Podcast, be sure to check out our website at www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com where you will find links to merch, Patreon and a variety of ways to support the show, as well as detailed episode descriptions and regional specials.
