Dr. Anya Foxen on Serpent Gnosis: Are Yoga & Kundalini Even Eastern?

Ready for some magical and economic sovereignty? Todd Elliott joins me to discuss The Cunning Farmer: Agrarian Magical Practices, Mythology, and Folklore. Discover the hidden intersection of agricultural labor and the ancient arts of magic designed to help listeners re-enchant the land they tend. Todd will delve into practical techniques such as using lunar phases for planting, reciting ancient psalms for weather magic, and cultivating mysterious “baneful” plants for spiritual work. You will learn how to communicate with the genius loci, or the unique spirit of a place, while fostering relationships with the unseen entities that inhabit the soil and forests. By blending Western esotericism with traditional folk practices, we’ll seek to “rewild the imagination” and restore the sacred role of the human as a mediator between the heavens and the Earth.

As an equinox celebration, let’s have Bernie Taylor give us both the true and esoteric dope on a timeless myth that will be a cultural event later this year. Explore how legendary figures like Odysseus utilized tales of monsters and ghosts as strategic narratives to secure resources and passage home. He’ll draw a direct comparison between these ancient survival tactics and filmmakers’ need to satisfy backers in pursuit of riches and prestige. This investigation into the power of storytelling culminates in an examination of Christopher Nolan’s upcoming 2026 production of The Odyssey and the specific audience for which it is being crafted.

It’s a pleasure to be joined by Dr. Anya Foxen to discuss her outstanding research, which explores how East and West esotericism meet and manifest in modern times. Kevin Cann joins me as a sorta co-hots, but you know he’ll share many a serpent’s secrets. What is the core purpose and gifts of kundalini practices? How has the West influenced Yoga (and vice versa), and can we find parallels with disciplines such as alchemy and magic? Rest assured that this “snakes and ladders” journey will lead to startling truths and guides to your own spiritual practices.

It’s an honor to host Gnostic Bishop and researcher Nathan Wilson at the Virtual Alexandria. He’ll share that Second Temple–era Judaism reveals a landscape of diverse sects, scriptures, and competing visions of God that challenge modern assumptions about ancient faith. He’ll trace mystic and proto‑Gnostic groups such as the Essenes, Therapeutae, and related movements, highlighting their cosmology, practices, and conflicts with temple authority. We’ll reframe Jesus and his operation within this contested religious world, using original Greek and Jewish sources to reinterpret figures such as the Devil, Archons, and the “ruler of this world.” In the end, you’ll find that early mystical movements emphasized liberation, justice for the vulnerable, and resistance to corrupt power structures.

Let’s get out of the Black Iron Prison as author and mystic Mariah De Aurum joins me to discuss Mother Wisdom and contemporary Gnostic solutions. This exploration includes her book, The Guidebook to the Goddess Who Became the World. Modern Gnosticism invites seekers to move beyond religious dogma by reclaiming the paramount principle of Gnosis: direct experiential knowledge and trust in one’s own innate human faculties. The journey focuses on the revelation of the Aeon Sophia, the divine Luciferian feminine principle who transformed into our living planet, dreaming humanity alive in every moment from the soil beneath our feet. By decoding historical symbols like Baphomet and embracing sacred ecology, this path reveals how we can share in Gaia’s “cunning” power and align with the sweet order of the natural world.

Get ready to understand this modern apocalypse as Angie Speaks joins me to discuss her important book, Late-Stage Babylon: Navigating the Post-Secular Spiritual Crisis. In an era defined by a profound “Ontological Crisis,” she investigates the emergence of Techno Antichrists, Code Archons, and Soul Harvesters who exploit our cultural hunger for meaning. Drawing on C.G. Jung’s psychological maps, we reveal how the “counterfeit spirit” of the Antichrist has manifested as a psychic event, hollowing out human subjectivity through technocratic systems. We further explore the UFO phenomenon as a secular replacement for religion, serving as a “mandala” of totality for a society fractured by rapid technological upheaval. Our journey aims to navigate the spiritual landscape of our “late-stage” civilization by confronting the collective shadow and restoring a sense of wholeness to the modern soul.

Let’s talk about one of the Virtual Alexandria’s main saints. Andrew Harvey joins me to discuss The Magdalene Revolution: The Return of the Sacred Feminine and the Birth of Radical Equality. We’ll explore the restoration of the Divine Feminine to the heart of the spiritual path, unveiling a visionary figure who stands as a co-equal teacher and female Christ. By reclaiming the “Sacred Marriage” of masculine and feminine, it challenges centuries of patriarchal distortion and reveals a hidden tradition of sexual holiness. This transformative journey invites seekers to participate in birthing a divinized humanity capable of healing a world currently enduring a global dark night.

Dr. Ray Taylor storms into the Virtual Alexandria. He’ll argue the radical claim that Jesus was not a Jewish messiah but a Mandaean teacher of light and spirit whose authentic message was suppressed to serve the interests of the Roman Empire. You’ll discover the hidden cosmology of the “World of Light” and the true significance of John the Baptist, whose ancient river baptisms were intended as a continuous path to liberation rather than a one-time church ritual. By exposing the “cleanup job” of the New Testament, we’ll reveal a deep-seated conspiracy to replace the gnostic wisdom of Simon Magus with the fabricated theology of rising Abrahamic religions.

Ronnie Pontiac rejoins the Virtual Alexandria, this time to discuss The Unobstructed Way: A True Account of the Exploration of Life After Death. He coauthored this work with his wife, the dearly departed and eternally missed Tamra Lucid. Explore the fascinating history of a 20th-century metaphysical experiment that attempted to map the frontiers of life after death through refined mediumship. These findings were so compelling that CG Jung recommended them as an essential study for the psychology of the unconscious, even privately admitting that he was inclined to believe the spirit communications were genuine. We’ll examine a unique philosophy that views our physical existence as a restricted state of consciousness compared to a vibrant reality of pure frequency and light. Get ready to dive into practical exercises designed to bridge the psychological gap between our material world and the eternal nature of the soul.

Gram arrives at the Virtual Alexandria for the sequel to his phenomenal yet disturbing research. He’ll summarize, but he’ll expand, so get ready for a global ride that even reaches other dimensions. You’ll get acquainted with Kirk’s partner in death, Yu Menglong, and discover more about the wicked figures executing these archonic rituals presently and in history. You won’t be surprised by how all this dark sorcery bleeds into Epstein and his band of molochs. Your innocence will be fine, but any ignorance you still hold on to will be out the door.
