Or why our horrible internet is good, actually.

Sick in an AirBnb in Paraguay, I make the case for co-creation still being the best way to exist with our ever-enhorribling media landscape.

Dan Waites joins us to discuss the literal long view, which is to say the things we can see and the frameworks we can find when we widen our perspective out to millennia-long cycles and epochal shifts.

We explore:

• The Kali Yuga and why it may have ended THIS year.

• The Age of Aquarius and how it turns out to be both real and totally fashionable. (You heard me.)

• The long cycles of outer planets and their role in birthing new religions.

• UFO Disclosure, Mayan Apocalypses and the 'true' astrology of Atlantis.

Note: Before we begin, my six-week Shadow Work Intensive, The Shaman’s Devil, Is Now Live. There are only a few spaces left, so if you think you might be interested, move quickly.

If you know me, you'll know this is a pretty big deal for me.

The one and only Dr Alberto Villoldo joins the show this week. We discuss

• Why you came to earth in the first place.

• What healing is and how to achieve it.

• How the academy and culture's understanding of shamanism has changed in the five decades he has been working in the field.

Dr. Alberto Villoldo is a medical anthropologist, psychologist, and shamanic teacher who has spent decades studying the healing practices of the Amazon and Andean shamans. He founded The Four Winds Society to bring ancient energy medicine into dialogue with modern neuroscience. His work bridges worlds—science and spirit, biology and ceremony—to help people remember who they truly are.
