In this Halloween episode of "The Wildwood Witch Podcast," Samantha Brown, our siren of the esoteric, has once again transcended the boundaries of time and mortality to bring us an intimate conversation with the enigmatic Marjorie Cameron (23 April 1922 - 24 June 1995).

Cameron, an artist, occultist, and muse of the infamous rocket engineer Jack Parsons, shares her life's tapestry—a blend of art, magick, and rebellion. From her early feelings of alienation to her pivotal role as "Babalon" in Parsons' Thelemic rituals, Cameron's narrative is a testament to her quest for authenticity and transcendence. Her involvement with figures like Kenneth Anger and her contributions to avant-garde cinema are also explored, revealing a woman who lived fiercely, unapologetically, and at the vanguard of spiritual and artistic expression.

The discussion delves into Cameron's complex relationship with Parsons, her experiences with psychedelics, and her profound impact on the occult landscape. Her reflections on life, art, and the pursuit of the divine are both haunting and enlightening, offering listeners a glimpse into the mind of a true iconoclast. Cameron's candidness about her personal struggles and her unorthodox approach to motherhood adds depth to her already compelling portrait.

Listeners are invited to join Samantha Brown as she navigates the astral plane to commune with Cameron, whose insights from beyond the veil are as mesmerizing as they are profound. Tune in to this episode of "The Wildwood Witch Podcast" to experience the elemental power of Marjorie Cameron and to ponder the eternal questions of existence, art, and magick.
