Michael Tsarion returns in this episode to discuss the hidden lineage of western religion based on the research from his new book, “The Irish Origins of Civilization.”

Ancient trilithons like the one above are doorways through which the sun enters the world - a birthplace of light.

Michael talks about the worldwide megalithic, Druidic civilization, also referred to by some as the “lost civilization”, that built the great megaliths of antiquity in Ireland, Britain, Egypt, Lebanon, the Americas, Cambodia, etc. These enlightened societies were not divided racially, but along moral, spiritual, and intellectual lines. It is from these ancient peoples and their worldwide system of colleges and temples that the concepts of modern religion were taken.

Our conversation touches upon ancient Druids, Egyptian pharaohs, astrotheology, suppressed history, occult symbolism, etymology, mythology, and esoteric Christianity. Although we go into depth discussing these subjects, to truly understand the monumental significance of this all, read “The Irish Origins of Civilization.”

In this episode, Kentroversy returns to discuss ancient Egypt. Our conversation covers many different topics, including past lives, alternative history, religion, Hermetics, Alchemy, Tarot, and Magick. Although neither of us are “experts” in an academic sense with regard to egyptology, we have both spent years investigating the research available on the mysteries of the ancient world. Kent also shares his personal esoteric connection.

Of course, the architecture and craftsmanship has to be addressed, mainly the pyramids and temples. The appearance of high civilization followed by a descent in technology, architecture, art, etc. cannot be avoided. We also talk about The Emerald Tablet, the concept of Hermes Trismegistus, and much, much more.

As always, Kent brings interesting and original ideas to the table for this latest installment of our ongoing dialogue. Hopefully you enjoy our conversations as much as we do.

In this episode, we’re joined by author Christopher Knowles. The discussion revolves around his new book, “Our Gods Wear Spandex, The Secret History of Comic Book Heroes.” We talk about the history of comic books and how the ideas contained and promoted in this medium can be traced directly to esoteric and occult concepts.

“The collision of science, morality, and magic is being played out hundreds of times a month in comic books and other media, showing us the implications of superhuman potential. Is this an unconscious form of preparation for an inevitable shift in human reality? Should we pay more careful attention to the visionaries and lunatics who anticipate the future in comic-book storylines? In that supernatural realm called the human imagination, comic-book creators like Alan Moore and Alex Ross may be time-travelers, forecasting the future for us and showing us the way. It’s funny how it all seems so similar to the ancient myths. The past and future are always with us.”

Lupa joins us to discuss Therioshamanism, her innovative and creative magickal work, and her books.

Therioshamanism has been defined by Lupa as shamanic animal spirit magic. A totally new system that she is creating and journaling about on her new blog - Therioshamanism.com. Prior to beginning this path, Lupa has written a number of books regarding neopagan animal magic, including “Fang and Fur, Blood and Bone: A Primal Guide to Animal Magic” and “A Field Guide to Otherkin.”

Our conversation also covers the interesting and controversial concepts of cultural appropriation, “plastic shamanism,” entheogens, as well as how someone who feels connected to these traditions can become more involved. In addition, we touch on the fascinating new book by Lupa and her husband Taylor Ellwood, “Kink Magic: Sex Magic Beyond Vanilla.”

A very innovative, creative, and well-spoken occult practitioner, Lupa’s work is interesting, original, and worth checking out.

T Allen Greenfield returns to the program, reprising his earlier appearance, to discuss some rare books for sale, the “The Secret Rituals of the Men in Black,” extraterrestrials, ancient civilizations, Points Chauds, and contact.

In our conversation, we cover some of the truly shocking conclusions that he reached:

“All serious magical rituals are a hidden advanced technology, concealed in a cipher now revealed. The Ultraterrestrials have been our teachers, puppet masters, body snatcher, lovers, and slave masters. Among us are Adepts who are in league with them, from the ancient priesthoods of light and darkness, to the Hidden Church of Light or Great White Brotherhood, and the Dark Lodges or the Black Lodge. Other adepti have raised themselves beyond the human condition and, as Ascended Masters are at once our ancestors, benefactors and an indicator of what we, as humans can become… The Ultraterrestrials, behind smoke, mirrors, and illusion both need us and are afraid of us.”

Philip Coppens is one of the world’s foremost esoteric researchers. He joins me to discuss his investigations into the world’s Mysteries. We discuss how he began his career and the many amazing subjects he’s covered, including the Knights Templar, Rennes le Chateau, and some of the research from his latest book, “The New Pyramid Age.”

The conversation also covers the work Philip does in combining the “Mind, Body, Spirit” and his open-minded and reasoned approach. He talks about the possibility of different research disciplines (metaphysics, occult, paranormal, spiritual, ufology, etc.) combining their study and why it is important to consider. Also, his analysis on the roles of science and organized religion in modern society is quite incisive. Last, we talk about Conspiracy Times. Few researchers are talented enough to reveal meaning, yet allow the air of mystery to remain. Coppens is one of them.

“The New Pyramid Age” by Philip Coppens

LONDON - A giant statue of the ancient Egyptian god of the dead floated down the Thames on Monday, turning heads as it crossed under London's Tower Bridge.

The 25-foot fiberglass representation of the jackal-headed god was taken down the river on the back of a cargo ship to Trafalgar Square, where it will stand for three days before moving to various locations around the capital.

Anubis' arrival is part of an effort to promote an exhibition of the treasures taken from the tomb of the ancient Egyptian King Tutankhamun. The show, "Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs," opens Nov. 15 at London's O2, previously known as the Millennium Dome.
