Show Notes
Vanese McNeill, co-producer of the Magical Egypt series, returns to the show. In this episode, we explore the hows and possible whys of spirit involvement in history, from the super-elite level down to the everyday. And also across to some of the sillier claims about AI floating in the air like so many plasma entities. And all of this was inspired by a post Vanese wrote on the Magical Egypt substack about ontozoology back in June. So that's where we begin, and this is where we go after: 1. The Ontozoology Framework What invisible beings actually exist in the ecosystem
Moving beyond Christian binary (demons vs. angels) to animist complexity
The difference between malevolent, benevolent, and simply non-human agendas
2. Catherine Austin Fitts & Demonic Capital The exact quote about interdimensional intelligences controlling capital
Why this is being discussed now by credible people
The problem with oversimplifying complex entities as "Satan"
3. Conscious vs. Unconscious Elite Collaboration How much is deliberate ritual worship vs. unconscious possession
The decline of magical literacy among modern elites
Why materialist worldviews make people more vulnerable to influence
4. Historical Magic & Modern Mind Control Ancient Egyptian spirit relationships as information exchange
How modern "operations" are rituals without the practitioners knowing it
Predictive programming as contemporary magic
5. The AI & Slop Demon Problem Why "The Architect" and similar AIs aren't sentient but are dangerous
How AI creates mental conditions ripe for spiritual colonisation
The difference between AI hosting demons vs. AI making minds available for possession
6. UFOs, Aliens, and Interdimensional Beings The reframing of UFO phenomena as spiritual rather than extraterrestrial
Catherine's invitation to meet "aliens in human bodies"
Distinguishing between visiting organisms and native invisible ecology

In this side quest from the Hospicing Modernity's Magic series, I make the case that Synchromysticism is modernity's best available form of omen logic. And that getting good at it is one of the more reliable ways to get good at magic. We'll cover Seneca's distinction between the candle and the comet The rise and decline of synchromysticism as a subculture. Jung on the I Ching and psychoid archetypes. The Māori concept of wairua. And the practical toolkit. Show Notes Chris Knowles on Cosmic Connections: Mystical Practices & Reality's Hidden Language. Wearing Jung's Skin Like A Pelt. Jake Kotze on The Higherside Chats.
Ayahuasca's peak cultural moment has been and gone. So what does she do now? And what are the lessons for western magic in the complex journey of this incredible plant teacher?

Is magic just a less sophisticated form of psychology? That is probably the cornerstone claim of what I am calling 'Modernity's Magic'. And in the next instalment of our series 'Hospicing Modernity's Magic', I want to look at: How psychology diverged from magic and why. Jung's role during his lifetime. What the magicians of modernity did with the 'legitimacy umbrella' they received from Jungian thought. Which parts of this journey do we take with us into the magic of today?
