This episode is a synthesis of ideas which presented themselves to me this past week. We explore the minds of academic and "geologian", Thomas Berry as well as botanist scholar turned psychonautic prophet, Terence Mckenna.

Do you feel time speeding up?

As the seasonal wheel churns us into the darkness of winter (and right on time for Diwali), the message rings out for us to tend to our inner fire, our inner light, which lovingly alludes to some grander journey deep within ourselves.

What is peace truly? The Earth's creative forces are full of conflict, violence, and tensions - yet they ultimately create. Is it possible to transmute our human-grade destruction into the most beautiful creation on Earth?

In this solo episode, I play with these ideas as well as the karmic debt of nation-states, the Dark Crystal, time travel, the Archaic Revival, bioregionality, and more.
