Astrological Psychology or Astropsychology is a field pioneered by Carl Jung, who saw the mysteries of the psyche in the stars. He once wrote that "Astrology was the sum of all psychological knowledge of antiquity".
Prof. Anderson joins us this week to discuss the mysteries of the zodiac, and share stories about personal experiences with astrology. We speak on a variety of topics, from the significance of a Saturn return - to the relationship between tarot, astrology and the idea of synchronicity.

In this episode I have on Dr. Megan Chmelik to discuss the "silent crisis" occurring in mental health.

Iboga Spirit, Plant Psychedelics & The Shamanic Journey | Herbal Hour Podcast #82
Thursday Jan 06, 2022
Thursday Jan 06, 2022
The Iboga tree is central to the Bwiti spiritual practices in West-Central Africa, mainly Gabon, Cameroon and the Republic of the Congo, where the alkaloid-containing roots or bark are used in various ceremonies to create a near-death experience, and on a more regular basis is eaten in smaller doses in connection with rituals and tribal dances performed at night. In 2000, the Council of Ministers of the Republic of Gabon declared Tabernanthe iboga to be a national treasure.
In lower doses, iboga has a stimulant effect and is used to maintain alertness while hunting. Recent research in the west has centered around potentials of the alkaloid ibogaine in the treatment of drug addition and mental health disorders.

This is a special episode! It is my first episode where I got to be the guest, rather than the host; so it was a special treat for me. Jake Weaver is the host of the Midnight on Earth Podcast, where I got the opportunity to speak in depth on naturopathy and the ancient traditions that inspired me to follow the healing path. We also discuss how mythology and the psyche play into natural healing.
