All too often that which exists beyond the realms of intellect and rationality are deemed unworthy, unreal, and even demonized by the overculture. However, there is tremendous power held by magical, intuitive practices, especially in this moment when so many of us are yearning to spin ourselves out of the reductionist, intellect-driven mindset that we find ourselves mired in. In this episode, we journey into the unseen with guest Marcella Kroll. In this expansive conversation we explore a variety of topics ranging from how we can offer tools for healing with integrity under a colonial-capitalist system, the intersections of algorithms, divination, and social media, and the legacy of ancestral healing. 

Amidst a modern culture that has proven itself committed to a way of thinking that is ultimately detrimental to our collective wellbeing, and even our basic capacity to keep humanity alive on this Earth, Marcella reminds us of magic’s place in this world as a powerful instrument that will allow us to transition and feel into our next iteration of existence.

Magic is a huge part of what is going to help us transition from a dying capitalist society into the next existence.
