  • Breaks are Signs of Evolution - Part 1
    May 7 2026

    In this exciting kick off of Season 4 hosts Jennifer Taylor and Tava Baird dive deep into the understandings of 'edge states' and the evolution of our soul. It begins with a brief discussion of Samael and Archangel Michael's "spirit crowd control plan" for how they will balance the needs of the spirits with those of the embodied participants in the upcoming Power of Story event held in a mausoleum. Interestingly enough, the answer for this conundrum comes back around at the end - weaving its wisdom into how we might manage various aspects of ourselves that seem incongruous. Many revelations are made -including Samael's sharing of a second level teaching in Lilithian philosophy. A frequent occurrence in Jenn's energetic healing sessions (which Samael calls "incarnations") is explained in more detail by Samael, shedding light onto how one might reframe difficult life events in a way that fosters greater wholeness. Season 4 starts off with a bang! You won't want to miss it.

    Resources:

    Refuge in the Storm - channeled song at the end of the podcast - an energetic transmission of divine support through a collaboration between the Spirits of Place, Archangel Michael and Samael.

  • Among Ghosts and Angels: Standing your Ground (Part 2)
    Apr 9 2026

    In this exciting second part of our conversation from last week, hosts Jennifer Taylor and Tava Baird share the full experience of Jenn's first visit to the historic and quite haunted, Blue Ball Inn. Not your typical paranormal investigation style podcast - this discussion reveals Tava's deeper understandings of, and ongoing relationships with, the resident ghosts; demonstrates acts of service and support of the spirits' personal spiritual work, and provides insights into the reason why some spirits may choose to remain on the earth plane rather than crossing over from Samael's perspective. From crackling walls, moving dolls and ghost preachers this episode has it all! While the experiences are sensational, the lessons learned and insights gained speak deeply to the effects of carrying around shame and self deprecating patterns, and how they can continue into the afterlife. Jenn and Tava's experiences with the disembodied residents are equally surprising, enlightening and entertaining. Aside from pure fun and interest, there are lots of little gems of information and inspiration including ways of maintaining your sovereignty in highly energetic spaces; care and feeding of the disembodied, ways of offering compassion to both yourself and those on the other side, and more. This is sure to be a favorite episode!

  • Among Ghosts and Angels: Standing Your Ground (Part 1)
    Apr 2 2026

    In this week's episode (a part 1 of 2), Jennifer Taylor and Tava Baird take a Mystical Musings Field Trip for Jenn's birthday to explore spirit communication dolls and Jenn's long-awaited introduction to the residents at the haunted Blue Ball Inn 1747. Tava explains her process of welcoming spirits, using music to feed visiting souls, and the physical and energetic restoration of dolls. Channeled song from Michael and a message from Samael introduce redefining holiness as active protection, unity, and raising one’s voice. The team discuss reframing helplessness by asking “What do I have?” and tell an archaeology story about being “six inches away” from a key discovery to encourage persistence. Come explore the world of the Unseen with us as we reach out to those on the other side!
