At long last…. the first of what I hope are many conversations … with μαινέσθαι, the mantic prophet… and teacher of Ancient Greek ….Ammon Hillman.
We range over a broad array of topics… from his transformation from a Baptist… to someone seeking initiation…. after being inspired by reading Aristotle… which introduced him to the Cosmos—and its relation to sex.
Reverence for the primacy of the Feminine Intelligences is woven all throughout our explorations. And the necessity of anamnesis (unforgetting)
We discuss the (living) Dead girl, the Muses… Theriac, polypharmacy,, and the history of the wild fictions that capture us moderns… bringing the apocalypse to false traditions that deceive us by demonizing human sexuality and our natural inclinations to seek bliss and ecstasy.
We also discuss magic a bit, and bibliomancy/necromancy… and wander in the open land of inquiry, curiosity, purgation… and ‘The Devil’.
Chewy! We love you!
