    Magick & Mental Health: Bridging the Gap

    Magick and mental health are usually treated as separate worlds, but today, Arden argues that keeping them apart may be limiting real healing. In this season finale, we explore why traditional therapy and recovery frameworks sometimes fall short of creating deep change. Arden breaks down the stigma around "magical thinking" and shares how tools like corrective experiences, shadow work, and spirit allyship can support transformation. The conversation also gets personal, touching on stigma, identity, and the courage to trust experiences that don’t fit into neat categories. Arden advocates for a broader understanding of mental health that includes spiritual phenomena and the potential of magick to facilitate rapid transformation. We bring this season to a close by encouraging listeners to reconsider their biases and explore new pathways for mental wellness and self-actualization.

    Mat Auryn: Embracing Your Psychic Gifts

    This week on The Re-Patterning Podcast, we're joined by occult author, teacher, and podcaster, Mat Auryn. Mat is the author of books such as Psychic Witch and The Psychic Art of Tarot, and the cohost of The Circle Is Podcast, alongside Rachel True. Mat joins us to discuss psychic ability, magical practice, and how both are shaped by self-knowledge, conditioning, and repetition. We explore how intuition is often trained out of us, how to tell the difference between useful perception and spiraling delusion, and why inner work matters just as much as any spell or divination tool. Mat explains why he believes everyone is psychic, even if those abilities are dormant or suppressed. He also shares practical ways to develop and regulate psychic sensitivity, including meditation, journaling, divination, and simple energetic exercises.

    Robert Greene: The Law of the Sublime

    Today on the Re-Patterning Podcast, we're joined by Robert Greene, the best selling author of celebrated books such as The 48 Laws of Power and The Art of Seduction. Our conversation centers around Robert's upcoming book, The Law of the Sublime, which explores the spiritual aspects of the human experience and the way it impacts our history, art, and even our consciousness. Robert shares with us the long journey of brining this book into existence, born from a stroke, a near-death experience, and seven years of handwritten obsession. Those familiar with his previous work will be introduced to a side of Robert they've never seen before. His upcoming book, and the lived experience that inspired it, shows us how the sublime is the kind of experience words can never quite capture, how illness and physical limitation reshaped his writing process, and why slowness, struggle, and embodiment can create work with a different kind of power.

    Aidan Wachter: Hypersigils and Practical Magic

    Today on the Re-Patterning Podcast, we're joined by Aidan Wachter, a practicing witch and animist, and the author of books like Six Ways: Approaches & Entries for Practical Magic, Weaving Fate: Hypersigils, Changing the Past & Telling True Lies, and Changeling: A Book of Qualities. Our conversation explores magick, deconditioning, and how to move beyond inherited beliefs that keep people stuck in their patterns. Aidan traces his path from punk rock and chaos magick into a more grounded animist worldview, explaining how he came to see “practice” as a way of rewiring the nervous system and learning what is actually true for oneself. Our conversation also explores hypersigils, Aidan's "black book" and "corridor" exercises, and his approach to trauma work as a form of imaginative repair and timeline change. Aidan's work makes a clear case for magic as a practical tool for self-understanding, healing, and building a life that feels more coherent and alive.

    Maja D'Aoust: Redefining Shadow Work

    On today's episode of the Re-Patterning Podcast, we're joined by Maja D'Aoust, also known as the Witch of the Dawn. Maja is a seasoned esoteric scholar and practicing witch, and the writer of books like A Witch's Bestiary, Astrology of the Shadow Self, and The Occult I Ching, as well as the creator and artist behind the Shadow Seer Tarot. Maja shares with us how raising our perceptual awareness unlocks profound enlightenment and self-mastery, especially in a world obsessed with surface-level spirituality. We also explore the true essence of shadow work beyond pop culture's oversimplification. We break down practical tools like using tarot and shadow archetypes to identify your hidden patterns. Learn how projection reveals your shadow—what you intensely dislike in others often mirrors what you deny in yourself. Maja discusses navigating ego defenses, depersonalization tactics, and the importance of community accountability when shadow behaviors surface—whether in personal relationships or larger societal conflicts like injustice and violence.

    Damien Williams: The Ethics of AI

    Today on the Re-Patterning Podcast, we're joined by Damien Patrick Williams, an expert in ethics in AI and a professor in philosophy and data science at the University of North Carolina. Damien's research explores how technology and artificial intelligence are impacted by the values, knowledge systems, philosophical explorations, social structures, and even the religious beliefs of human beings. Our discussion exposes how technology isn’t neutral but a reflection of human values, social structures, and prejudices. He reveals chilling examples from pulse oximeters to language models, showing how biases can literally shape outcomes in health, justice, and social perception. Damien breaks down the myths of technological neutrality, explaining how societal biases get baked into algorithms through data sets and design choices. We explore the dangerous consequences of trusting math and automation biases, and how these distort our understanding of truth, reality, and human worth.
