Join me, Timothy Sailor, your host, psychopomp, and psychagogue,as we navigate the nocturnal, sound out the subconscious, and explore the farthest reaches of our experience in this darkling plane we call reality. Weird phenoumena. Ancient masteries. Phantasmic encounters. And more. This is Nightbird Radio. A podcast for the hauntological turn, coming at you from the great forest deep in the heart of the Kali Yuga!
Nightbird is back! Thanks for everyone's patience - its been a crazy summer. On this episode we return with a fun conversation about trickster spirits and magical psychosis. How do we know when we are too far down the rabbit hole? How can we avoid it? What does it look like? We discuss all this and more in this episode, delving into our own experiences to shed some light on the topic and offer some perspective as we see it. We talked about divination, banishing, discernment, ramen-runes, and so much more!

Welcome back Nightbirds! On this episode of our ongoing Rune Walk series, we discuss the runes Tiwaz and Birkano, and begin our journey through the final eight runes. We of course discussed the traditional and esoteric meanings of each rune. We also discussed our own personal experiences with the runes through shamanic journeying techniques. We riffed on topics of souls, destiny, and sexuality. We discussed the Havamal and the Wild Hunt and so much more. Finally, we discussed Valkyrie Göll herself, and how she appeared for us in our journeys. Who she is, and the signs that go with her.

Rune Walk Part 8: Algiz, Sowilo, and Valkyrie Herfjötur
On this episode we continue our coverage of the Rune Walk with Algiz, Sowilo, and Valkyrie Herfjötur. Before we dive into the runes themselves, we discuss what it means to embody a spirit, or be a part of a spirit lineage or oversoul. We continue with the traditional meanings of the runes, the rune poems, what they meant for us and the gnosis we gained about these runes over the course of the month. This time we really dive deep into our journeys with this valkyrie and these runes. We also talk about names, naming, reincarnation, and their importance to this work, and so much more.
