🪐The Saturn-Neptune conjunction and its strange history with Russia
🪐 Why March could see dangerous confusion and technical disasters

🪐 What 2026 sets up for early 2027

🪬🪬How To Use The Astrology in Your Life🪬🪬

January's Gift 
Use the hidden assembly energy for genuine visioning. Where does your capacity for struggle go? What's actually worth anything? What are your sneaky little moves? Get trajectory set before the crazy train.

April's Pressure 
Mars-Saturn conjunctions every two years aren't new—but this one's in Aries with Neptune. Being pushed beyond reasonable limits. A week's work in a day and a half while already burned out. Endurable, but genuinely shitty.

The May-June Repair Window 
Not just absence of destruction but actively sweet and reparative. Build here what you couldn't build in the storm.

Lucifer: Praxis! 

Peter Grey joins the show once again to talk about his explosive new book. We explore who the being of Lucifer is, his relationship to western magic, western magicians' relationships to him and how the current of liberty, individualism and legitimate rebellion have shaped centuries of culture.

An excellent discussion about a milestone achievement in western occulture.

Get the damned book here.

Enjoy!

I spent way too much time trying to shoehorn a Warhammer 40K reference into this episode title, and it devolved into something that would make a Chaos Marine blush. So we're keeping it professional (kinda) and diving straight into the space weather for 2025's back 9.

Watch along on YouTube here, if you like. This is what we cover.

Space Baby Update & Good Enough Goals 
Austin's 30-pound toddler is harder to carry than heavy deadlifts, and "good enough" is our 2025 achievement mindset

Failed 40K References & First Half Lookback 
From the eternal Mars season to the Carnival of Chaos that delivered perfect tariff confusion

Iran & Playing for All the Marbles 
Why this could mark the start of World War III and how it connects to the Jupiter-Saturn square

Uranus Enters Gemini: The Pilot Episode 
The seven-year transit that historically reshapes America, plus the flying wedge formation of outer planets

The Bow and Arrow Configuration 
Peak craziness in August with Mars-Saturn tension creating a cosmic weapon aimed at change

The Pause That Does Not Refresh 
September's retreat into swampy Pisces energy—like WWI trenches where your feet rot in gross water

Pisces-Virgo Eclipse Season 
The tail of the dragon's Buddhist letting go vs. the head's overwhelming hunger for the dream

Neptune in Aries & Individual Glory 
From woke-era uniformity to the pursuit of personalised excellence and looking combat-ready

Jupiter in Cancer Magic 
Learning what you really need and how to ask the divine for surgical beneficence

Personal Updates & H2 Plans 
Austin's book progress, Gordon's Peru trip for the Festival of the Sun, and preparing for a louder 2026

Poet, author, taiji instructor and intentionist (this will make sense shortly), Brian Wilkins joins the show this week, on the occasion of the publication of his book, A Wheel of Small Gods.

We discuss how poetry can be a container or place for spirits, different methods of experiencing and understanding energy, healing magic, magic-as-time-travel as well as the how's and why's of coming into relation with star spirits.

Super fun discussion. Enjoy!

• Get A Wheel of Small Gods.
• Brian's website.

The Q3 premium member course beginning shortly is on energy healing and -to go alongside it- we'll be doing a series of dialogues with practitioners from various energy modalities.

First cab off the rank is fellow Newcastle boy, Lance Baker, to talk about certainly the most well-known (and perhaps the least understood?) modality, Reiki. Lance is a Reiki Master, hypnotherapist, author and teacher.

Definitely the right person to talk me through it!

• Lance's website and business, Branches of Healing.
• Lance's YouTube channel.

The one and only Matawhero Lloyd returns to the show this week. More specifically, while I am in New Zealand, I returned to Whetu Ariki to spend some time with Matawhero and to see what's been happening with his pā project over the past couple of years. This is a project many of you will be familiar with from Ani.Mystic, where it gets a whole chapter of its own.

I'm releasing this one as an audio version as well as the video tour because -while I definitely think you should actually watch it so you can put images to the words- Matawhero goes really deep on Maori metaphysics, indigenous philosophy and all kinds of powerful topics. So there's still a lot to pick up just in the conversation.

But if you do want to watch it, jump over to YouTube and watch it there.

Enjoy!

Show Notes

• Get Ani.Mystic.

It's that time of half-year again! Forecastapalooza. With returning champ, Austin Coppock.

You know you want it. Get in.

Note: This was a video show so you can watch along on YouTube if you prefer.

Enjoy!

An Amazonian solo show this week, exploring the one-year anniversary of providing shamanic energy healings.

One of the things I mention during the episode is how I consider some of the seemingly bolder claims of shamanic healing from a different perspective having been in the jungle a number of times now. There's certainly a shared underlying metaphysics there.

Note: As mentioned at the top of the episode, this is a video one. So you may want to jump over to YouTube instead.

Something different -and personally very exciting- this week. In the few days in between my Ecuadorian ayahuasca retreat and a return to my Peruvian jungle dieta, I got to visit the art school founded by my favourite artist, Pablo Amargino. Even better… I got given the tour by Pablo's son, Juan!

Juan is himself an artist, so I also got to see some of his work, and some of the work of Pablo's students. Plus I got the opportunity to ask some questions about Peruvian shamanism and curanderismo, and have some of the amazing concepts depicted in the painting spelled out.

This is very much a video episode, rather than an audio on, so be sure to head over to YouTube and check it out. 

Enjoy!

The one and only Jenx returns to the show to discuss his latest book, Supernatural Thailand. And so of course we discuss graveyards, Naga caves, boy spirits, dying for one's city and a whole bunch more.

Then we end the show looking at some of Adjarn Apichai's forecasts for the next few years and where they precisely align with our own.

Great stuff, as always! Please note I'm still in the Andes so there are a few audio dropouts. Also this was recorded as a live video discussion if you would prefer to watch rather than listen.

Enjoy!
