The Dark Night of the Soul is associated with spiritual and physiological shifts that can lead you into a deeper, visceral spiritual experience. The Dark Night is a good time to work on emotional issues, dispose of self-limiting beliefs, and cultivate the Shadow Self. Use your magical relationships to help you cultivate new spiritual practices and delve deeper into spiritual principles. Hyperion discusses his own Dark Night of the Soul that led to a deepening of his experience in the Unnamed Path.

RECORDED BY HYPERION (EDDY GUTIERREZ) & ORIGINALLY AIRED 04 / 16 / 2009 Show Highlights: Sacrifice comes from the latin words: sacer (holy) + facere (to make). Historically sacrifice took the form of animals, foods, rare herbs and spices as a way of pleasing the gods. Modern sacrifice requires giving up our time, money, effort, and information toward our spirituality. If we sacrifice just 10% of our lives toward our spiritual practice, we make our entire lives a sacred experience.
