This week, we welcome interdisciplinary artist, diviner, writer and educator J.M. Hamade of starnightdwell onto the pod to chat about their forthcoming publication with Revelore Press on the Lunar Stations! Jay takes us on a journey through the tapestry of night, shining a scholarly light, fused with a sense of artistic and praxis embodiment, onto a mystical lineage that envelops the imagination and produces the Divine Speech of the Birds.
How does one envision their own art of cave-dwelling, of womb diving, of going into that dark space and emerging with images? What does it mean to view the stars through a lunar aperture, with the moon as music, the moon as letter, the moon as mouth? How does one practice becoming the image by becoming sound, which is a full-bodied experience, when the Lunar Stations are acknowledged, witnessed, and put into play? All this and more, on todayâs episode of SaturnVox.

This week, we welcome traditional witch, cunning woman, and fairy doctor, Briar of the Greene Chapel, onto the pod to talk about their practice within the context of French fairy seership, holding right relations with the good neighbors, and their work as a fairy doctor. We also explore their recently published research on the potential connections between the fairy faith and the story of Joan of Arc. What does hospitality mean to the fae? What are the burdens and responsibilities of those who have been marked? How might we, as humans, best navigate the mercurial logic of the fae and their liminality? What is the importance of accepting we already live in an enchanted world? And, what does all of this have to do with Joan? All this and more, on todayâs episode of SaturnVox

This week, we welcome tattooist, conjurer, and practitioner of the occult arts, Gary Noriyui onto the pod to talk about their practice with Thai occult and tattooing. Gary shares with us stories about their journey as a practitioner, which speak on respect for one's ancestors, elders, and the traditions one is involved with. How can we grow as individuals by leaning into a more co-creative engagement with our communities, both living and dead? Why is it important to find and rely on elders? And what does Baphomet have to do with this? All this and more on todayâs episode, of SaturnVox

This week, we welcome mystic, sorcerer, artist, and writer David Davis onto the pod to chat about meeting and making sense of the martial mystery. The future is still being dreamed up by all of us. Are you honoring the revolutionary spark of madness that inspires someone to go out and do something? David and I chat about Mars as the moment of radicalization, the initiatory moment of the surgeon's knife as it cuts out what is making the self and society sick. We speak on donning the cloak of the monster, and the sensuality of mysticism as we navigate new ways to speak narratives which allow us to use Marsâs power of hatred and discernment to bind the oppressor and reframe our stories towards that of liberation and compassion for all beings. How do we bind the beast of oppression? In what ways does shame protect us from our own tendencies towards violence? What does it mean to be in active service and communion with martial energy and why is it that the best weapon against mars is also mars? We touch on healing, revolution, and the power of anger to get shit done. Join us for this pertinent and important conversation towards allowing in a heated knife to cauterize wounds. All this and more poetry, on todayâs episode of SaturnVox

This week we are welcoming witch, astrologer, artist, folk-psychopomp, and dear friend Jove Spucchi onto the cast to talk about nightlife, eros, and the magic woven in queer and liminal spaces. In this episode, we take a deep dive into the magical potency of nightlife by discussing Jove’s experiences weaving liminal magic within dance floors, through sound, and within communities that embrace the intersections between art, music, queerness, and the divine. Drawing their own experiences as nightlife builder, inspirited dancer, and magical practitioner, Jove shares with us the the power found on the dance floor to transcend the boundaries of self through intuitive self-expression and surrender to Desire.
How does dance help us feel safe in our bodies? What are the similarities of Otherness between those who identify as queer vs witch? How can we take the undulating energy of desire and use it to shape a world in which we all get to surrender to safety, intimacy, and vulnerability of heart through the ekstatis of the moon and the dionysian impulse to purge through the creation of feral artistic expression? All this and more on today’s episode of SaturnVox
To find more on Jove, you can check them out on instagram, twitter, or check out their website here. You can also take a class they will be teaching on Night Life Magic at this year’s Occulture Conference 2023, so if you are going to the conference in Berlin this year don’t forget to check Jove's talk out!

This week we are welcoming author, artist, and student of astrology, Arturo Martinini to talk about Arturo's most recently published book through Revelore Press titled, The Oracle of DelphAI, an artistic rendition of the astrological image talismans representative of the seven traditional planets, the zodiacal signs, the decans, the fixed stars, and the lunar mansions co-created by Arturo with a little help from a non-human entity, that of AI. We discuss the ethical and ontological nature of using such a tool in talismanic creation, Arturo's process in creating the book, and how other practitioners might find the book useful. This convo is an open dialog on embarking wild new technological frontiers, as well as, the ethics and ethos in the praxis of confronting the other and humanâs relationship to technological unknowns, as well as, oneâs ability to navigate capital and the need to access power and agency for oneâs self in the world. I quite enjoyed this conversation with a dear friend, and hope it opens up a dialog of critical questions and theories on the intersection between magic, technology, and art for you.
To support this project and get a copy of the book for yourself, head over to the Revelore Press website to purchase it here. Feel free to also contact Arturo via email at [email protected]

This week on SaturnVox we are welcoming astrologer, bruje, and world builder, Ari Felix, onto the pod for the season three premiere! I am thrilled to release this episode, which was a conversation filled with immense contemplative wisdom. We talk about Ariâs work in the art of worldbuilding, and its role as an anti-capitalist pedagogy for the liberation of self, an exercise in dreaming our reality as we, the sovereign of our own lives, will it to be. Ari graciously brings their knowledge and understanding of the Ifa tradition in to help answer some pretty tough political, spiritual, and ethical questions.
How do we connect ourselves to the lifegiving blood-force of our own generative creativity, both through lineage and through the lens of our agency? How can we navigate healing our own wounds of oppression, as well as the wounds of others, within the capitalist paradigm we are trying to break? What types of healing can be cultivated societally when we stop viewing things through the lens of good/bad and instead focus on ease/disease? I was immensely moved and inspired by Ariâs dedication to freedom and building a world in which we can all feel at home in our desires, our bodies, and our communities. I hope you will be too. All this and more on todayâs episode of SaturnVox

This week we are coming in with a bonus episode featuring the infamous, educational, and hilarious Professor Charles Porterfield! We chat about the history of hoodoo and conjure, with our discussion emphasizing the black origins of the practice and giving an effort to showcase the importance of the study of liberation politics and revolutionary history as an ethos foundation within this sorcerous craft. What makes Hoodoo a practice distinguishably different from African Traditional Religions? How does conjure function as a sorcerous technique aimed at liberating the oppressed? What is the difference between pure and clean? Why is Hoodoo explicitly North American, and, how did the political landscape of the United States influence the addition of Indigenous, Jewish, and other ethnic minorityâs praxis in a tradition that finds its roots in Africa? All this and more on todayâs episode of SaturnVox.
But wait, thereâs more! Check out the Patreon exclusive episode to hear more of my conversation with the good professor, as we transition from history into praxis, leaning more into a discussion on various uses and techniques for doing both magic and divination with playing cards!
If you enjoy this episode and the witty way the Professor imparts his wisdom, I encourage you to check out the class he is teaching at the Salem Witchcraft and Folklore Festival. This conference is filled with a plethora of inspiring educators, many of whom have been on the podcast, and I canât express enough how much my own magic has grown in both personal praxis and community building through the experiences I have had at festivals past.

This week we welcome guest Alexis Mincolla, chaos magician and lead singer of the industrial metal band 3Teeth on to chat about all things magic, music, and how to dance your way towards self liberation. I ask Lex some questions sent in by other listeners of the pod, such as, how did he get into magic, what inspired him to weave it into his artistic creations, and why Chaos Magic?
Mostly though, we spend the interview talking about one of my favorite things, the intersection between magic and politics. How does one remove themselves from the stranglehold of divine oppression? How does language use feed into false illusions of what is and what isn't? How do we cultivate agency and freedom while still maintaining order, without allowing that order to become oppressive? We even make some time to discuss what itâs like for Lex living out in the desert and what he has learned from the local genius loci there. I was very humbled and graciously inclined for Lexâs vulnerability and honesty, and I hope the rest of you find some moments of inspiration in this conversation as I did. All this and more, on todayâs episode of SaturnVox
To find more on Alexis, you can check out their instagram @alexismincolla, or head on over to the 3Teeth official website to join Operation Mindfuck. Donât forget also, you can listen to the band on any platform music may be heard.

This week, we welcome guest Ăscar DiÌaz, Poet, Medieval Islamicate Astrologer, and Specialist in Fixed Stars, to chat with us a bit about the intersection between poetry and divination. This conversation speaks like an epiphany of fire, with the spark of inspiration leaping from tongue to tongue. From getting the blood flowing through language, to the art of omen augury, I certainly enjoyed the liminal and whimsical wisdom Ăscar was gracious enough to provide.
In what ways are both poetry and astrology embodied practices? What might djinns, daimons, or demons have to do with creativity and inspiration? Why is there a strong relationship between Venus and diviners? How can a surrender to eroticism and poetry allow us to better explore the risk and inherent fumbles of living an authentic life? In what ways are poetry and magic engaged in a similar process of reality shaping, and, what is the link between shame and interest? All this and more, on todayâs episode of SaturnVox
To find more on Ăscar, check out their website where you can book them for an astrological reading, and maybe also make some time to read some of their published poetry. Donât forget also to follow them on instagram or twitter to keep up with whatever workshops and classes they may be offering.
To find more on SaturnVox, check out their instagram and twitter @saturnvox, or, visit their website saturnvox.com.
This weekâs extended episode features Ăscarâs musings on the poetics of astrological talisman making, the magic and sound scaping of rhymes, the intimacy of singing oneâs prayers, the difference between prayers we write and prayers that have been intoned repeatedly by many over time, and advice on how to give generosity to the self in encouragement to write prayers of your own, so hop on to the Patreon at www.patreon.com/saturnvox where you can further support the show and join in on our community discord server.

This week, we welcome my new friend, writer, activist, filmmaker, and witch, Sarah Lyons, for a special in-person recording of the pod! I actually adored the background of city sounds you hear in this interview that I did with the @citymystic discussing her two books, which I personally think were well missing from occult literature until she wrote them, How to Study Magic and Revolutionary Witchcraft.
We giggle, we joke, we contemplate horror, as we discuss some serious issues such as; Who gets to define who as âOtheredâ? Why is it so important to reclaim the term Wtich? How does the body act as an object held within the political dimension? What's the difference between calling yourself Witch vs Magician? Why might we need the discipline of a container to unleash ecstasy? And perhaps most importantly, how can we find safety as we stand at crossroads making deals with uncertainty? All this and more, on todayâs episode of SaturnVox.

This week, we are welcoming a person very dear to my heart, Jacquelyn Marie Shannon, ritualist, integrative hypnotist, ritual artist, Ph.D. candidate, and dancer, to chat about their research on a topic they have come to call Ghostly Practice. It's hard for me to concisely state in linear language what this episode is about. It's about poetry, it's about performance, it's about the haunting excess accrued by the churning movements and sacrifice of time. It's about dance as the tension and pulling between not the two sides of the coin, but, the very spin of the coin itself.
In what ways are we haunted by both memory and possibility? How is performance directly informed by the praxis of ritual? How can we commit fully to the act of becoming within a ritual body that is constantly living and dying? Is your bookshelf implicitly haunted? It is my deepest pleasure and joy to plant the seed of Jacquelyn's work in the minds of all who choose to listen. May it spark creative impulses in your soul, to dance and move in co-creation with all Others, both seen and unseen.
Don't forget to check out the Patreon Exclusive Episode which features Jacquelyn speaking on their experiences as an academic who is out of the broom closet, so to speak. As well as, additional poetics on the relationship between art and politics, and , the negation + subsequent recreation of self as praxis for allowing ourselves to truly live with both feet on each side of the river of Becoming.
To find more on Jacquelyn, make sure to check her out on Instagram @ghostinglass. You can also check out their website for further information on their classes and research, as well as, book a hypnosis session here.

This week, we are welcoming guest Phil English, GaldramaĂ°ur, Diviner, and Thelemite to come onto the podcast and chat about the poetic and primordial power of working and expressing the Runes. We chat poetry, singing, enchanting, and the importance of cultivating right relations with the mythopoetic narratives inside us. Certainly a treat for anyone interested in the history of ancient traditions, and more so in, the way we weave stories and songs of the dead and living in syncopations of unity and frenzied sound, a co-creation with all around us. What are the Runes? Who is Odin? Why is it so hard to reconstruct a firm proof of praxis for a people whose histories and myth interpretations have been destroyed and forgotten? Why might it be better to engage in these myths as living narratives, instead of historiographical proof of such-and-such a thing? How can we stay tethered when traversing liminal spaces? What are some of the mysteries of enchantment and disenchantment? And most importantly, why is it so necessary to ground ourselves in the reality of histories of oppression as tactics to keep ourselves ethical and humble in our magic practice? All this and more, on todayâs episode of SaturnVox.
Don't forget to check out the Patreon Exclusive Episode which features Phil telling his own mythopoetic understandings of a few runes, as well as, a bit more commentary on weaving narratives of poetry and power in our magic practice.
To find more on Phillip, make sure to check him out on Instagram @vitkiarts. You can also book a reading and peep their other services over at their website, and remember to also keep an eye on both our stories and insta feeds for Philâs future class announcements.

This week, we are welcoming guest Maighdlin Kelly, astrologer, astronomer, and weird scientist, to chat about a topic that tickles fantasy and stirs the curious and brave heart, that of the paranormal and the entity known as the Phenomena. Maighdlin has taken their skills as an astrologer and focused them on studying paranormal events. They also extend their roots in the weird science community by teaching fellow paranormal hunters how to view the sky through an astronomerâs lens via their project @stargazingsidequest. On today's episode, they will graciously take the time to explain to me that there are some things we just may never know, with great patience despite my churning desire to uncover all mysteries, I might add. What can we learn about the Phenomena from looking at the event charts of weird encounters? How can we stay grounded when tracing the roots of weird experiences? What is so exciting about the current crossover between the paranormal and occult communities? All this and more, on today's episode of SaturnVox.
Bear in mind when listening to today's episode that I actually had a weird encounter in the process of recording it. I did nothing different with my recording process and yet ended up with the most garbled sound file I'd ever experienced so far in my podcasting journey. Upon talking to Maighdlin about this, I discovered that it's apparently a very common occurrence when people are discussing the phenomenon on air. So much so that they have been named, the Technical Goblins! So, my apologies for the machine elf interference.
Don't forget to check out the Patreon Exclusive Episode which features Maighdlin recounting some of their own weird encounters, how to surrender to the mystery, and lucid dreaming.

This week, we are welcoming special guest Leeci, student of Gnosticism and devotee of St. Mary Magdalene, to talk about one of my favorite things in the whole world, Anime! Those of you who grew up with a little bit of weeb in you probably know that Anime has a history of bringing up occult and esoteric issues within the narrative. In fact, both Leeci and I probably wouldn't have picked paths that emphasized magic or mysticism without the introduction via anime as kids. So with this in mind, we decided to explore three different series and talk about how they are, or are not, related to the mysteries they are attempting to discuss. What makes the self? Why is it important to find the you inside the heart of others? How can we transcend our suffering? What does it mean to be interdependent with the Beloved? How does one find their own personal Gnosis? We discuss Ergo Proxy, NGE, and, if you hop on over to the extended episode found on Patreon, we talk Madoka Magica too!

This week, we are welcoming a truly special guest, one of my best friends, Kandace Layne. Kandace is a tattoo artist and tarot reader from my hometown of Atlanta Georgia, and she recently just reached her 10 year anniversary as a professional in her field! To celebrate, I invited Kandace onto the cast to discuss the magical history of tattooing and the process of spirit guided image magic she brings into her art. What can the history of tattooing teach us about image magic as medicine? How can we brainstorm ourselves into a good business practice while maintaining spiritual integrity in the wake of late stage capitalism? What lessons can we learn from our animal brother and sisters? What can we learn about the complexities of colonialism by studying the spiritual significance of ritual scarification in places like Benin? We also chat some about a ritual idea Kandace will be working on bringing into her tattoo practice over the next couple years! It's the holidays, so unlike most of my other episodes, I let this one unfold as a caress among sisters instead of my usual analytical style of interviewing. So cuddle up by the fire with some hot cider and tune into this beautiful artist and animist spin her stories of compassion for the spirits of the Earth. All this and more, on today's episode of SaturnVox.

Throughout the course of this interview, Nika and I explore the cathartic process of ritual expression which extends itself synonymously through art, music, and magic. Due to our shared political standing and love of Adorno, we also find space to weave in conversations on the importance of such an expression to combat the ill effects of a Capitalist culture which seeks only to consume. How might one use art as an antidote to a commodified world? What does it mean to be a Missionary for Nature? How does community storytelling re-enliven our engagement with the various ecologies of the world? What is there to gain through relinquishing control? All this and more, on today's episode of SaturnVox.
To find out more on Nika, check out her bandcamp here, where you can listen to her albums as Zola Jesus and also purchase merch. You can also find her on twitter, instagram, and patreon.

This week, we are welcoming guest Amaya Rourke, astrologer, ritualist, artist, teacher, and writer residing in the northwest of the Republic of Ireland. Her work is guided by her animistic land-based spiritual and magical practice, helping her to return to and reveal the wild and creative terrestrial origins of astrology and mythopoetics. In this episode, Amaya shares with us her theories on creativity and praxis in regards to her aspirations in guiding clients towards the cultivation of a deeply nourishing and co-creative relationship with the quiet rumbling of deep enchantment and living art of the more-than-human world. In what ways is our art our children? What does it mean to be dead while alive? How might we fully embody the nature of our own authentic vulnerabilities? What can go wrong when our art, as our children, begin to be perceived by others as a commodifiable object? What does it look like to speak to someone soul to soul and how might we cultivate thresholds of safety for ourselves and others? What does it mean to be in a state of flow? All this and more, on today's episode of SaturnVox.
To find out more on Amaya, check out her instagram @empress_craft, as well as her twitter under the same name here. You can also book an astrology reading with her here on her website.

This week, we are welcoming guest Reverend Erik of the Arnemancy podcast, on this the day of his solar return! Erik and I have recorded sister episodes on each other's respected podcasts on our thoughts surrounding the philosophy behind tarot reading. Get a behind the scenes peek at how your diviner friends learn to read and sus out meanings for the cards! Erik's method is a unique and innovative technique involving Renaissance philosophy, and the Art of Memory. How do stories, sounds, and smells allow us to better take hold of the opaque translucent nature of Memory? Is there any difference in how one learns the Majors vs the Pips? How is the imaginal playground informed by the sea of Eros? Isn't all magic just chaos magic anyway? All this plus laughs and jokes abound, in today's episode of SaturnVox.
