BTW 82: Knight of Cups - Finding Your Holy Grail - (Part 2) Mythologies of the Knight (01:07:08)
In this, the second of two solo episodes with host Amanda Yates Garcia on "The Grail Knight", we discuss the mythologies of the Knight of Cups. Specifically, we focus on the Celtic legend of the Grail Knight Percival, his travels through the Forest of Arroy (the Forest of Adventure), and his encounter with the Fisher King. We talk about the Well Maidens, and the Wasteland. We describe the pursuit of the Grail as one of the founding myths of Western Civilization, because it describes the desecration of the sacred, but also prophesies what medicine must be found in order to restore the world to right order. We give study questions, and also rituals you can use when themes related to the Knight of Cups show up in your reading, or your life.

BTW 80: Art, Magick, and the Imagination with Robert Allen (01:29:24)
Where is the realm of Hecate? In the liminal spaces, the place where the imagination and the material world meet.

Weaving together strands from his background in painting, Ceremonial Magic, German Tanz Theatre, physical theater, phenomenology and the philosophy of images, Amanda and Robert discuss the relationship between art and magic, and how the imagination really can change the world.

Today’s guest, Phyllis Curott, has been practicing witchcraft for over 40 years, is the author of one of our favorite decks, the Witches Wisdom tarot deck, and 6 other books on witchcraft. Today we discuss what people get wrong about witchcraft (hint, it’s not just about willpower and manifesting), divination as dialogue, how to find your path, the secret ingredient of intention setting, magic for folks who are overwhelmed by the state of the world, and what the tarot is ultimately teaching us.
