What exactly are the Archons? Are they rebellious angels? Extraterrestrial invaders or alien mind parasites? We present a special show on the Powers and Principalities with two brilliant thinkers. Just as important as understanding the reality of the Archons, we gain the insights and tools to overthrow their tyrannical yoke on humanity and a dying planet.

Astral Guests:

Jay Weidner, writer and director of The Last Avatar and Kubrick’s Odyssey

Laurence Galian, author of Alien Parasites: 40 Gnostic Truths to Defeat the Archon Invasion!

Ready for some William Blake, Percy Shelley, Lord Byron, William Wordsworth and other shamans of Classic Gnosis? It's an in-depth exploration of the Romantic Poets including their legacy on modern esoterica and society in general.

Jul 11, 2019

We explore the crucial but little-known concept in occultism known as the egregore — an autonomous psychic entity created by a shared group mind. An egregore is sustained by belief, ritual, and sacrifice, relying for its existence on the devotion of an assembly of people, whether it’s a small coven to an entire country. This thought-form or collective meme can take on a life of its own, becoming an independent deity that can create despots or change history. Beyond understanding egregores, we find out how to dissipate these entities once they take over a person or nation.

Astral Guest – Mark Stavish, author of Egregores: The Occult Entities That Watch Over Human Destiny.

Jul 5, 2019

We explore a new magical philosophy that focuses heavily on the consciousness alteration, shamanistic Gnosis, and building a community based on mutual compassion along with ancestor veneration. It focuses less on results and more on personal development paired with harmonious group dynamics. The goal of this occult system is to reintroduce the world to tribalism in a modern, accepting context, always group-inclusive but supreme in championing the growth of an individual.

Astral Guest – Threskiornis, co-author of Emergent Magick: Rebuilding Our Tribes Through Ritual and Meaning.

We deal with the fascinating creation myth found in the Nag Hammadi library's Tripartite Tractate. This Valentinian work provides as many differences as it does parallels to the Sethian cosmologies. Even more, our guest reveals her beautiful visuals that correspond to this gospel, as well as unique insights on the Gnostic plight and the world we live in today.

We explore the earthly and unearthly forces in the early 70s that shaped the minds of Philip K. Dick, Terence McKenna, and Robert Anton Wilson. This leads to how these psychonauts went to both influence and foretell today’s fragmenting culture. We focus more on Dick, including his Gnosticism that was much earlier than most believe and his predictions of a Gnostic nightmare that has come true.

Astral Guest – Erik Davis, author of High Weirdness: Drugs, Esoterica, and Visionary Experience in the Seventies.

Jun 17, 2019

It's getting really bad out there. We discuss how prognosis and practical remedy can reverse the ever-increasing stupidity of global society; and the potential for Gnosticism to thrive in such a global reversal. It's a mandate of having a holistic vision in all aspects by all entities and how the greatest thinkers across space and time profess such. More than anything, we gain the tools to self-knowledge and self-transformation in a world of so many false realities.

Jun 13, 2019

How did the ancient Gnostics create such personal but transcendental texts? How did they write their own gospels that infuriated orthodoxy? We find out by intimately understanding the process of how a modern poet engaged the Gnostic template to write his own gospel. The result was his soul delving deep into the collective unconscious and high into daemonic realms. Ultimately, he experienced his version of Sophia and the Logos. Our discovery leads to insights on leveraging Gnosis in modern times, including novel approaches to the concepts of evil, free will, ego, and overcoming fear. We also discuss overlooked Gnostic movies like Conan the Barbarian!

As the last great Romantic, WB Yeats drew heavily from the Gnostic and Hermetic traditions. We mine the works of Yeats to find transcendental truths and magical insights. What is the real meaning behind “The Second Coming” and “A Vision”? What are the timeless secrets behind his use of Pagan Irish lore and Hellenistic symbols? What are his stark prophecies that seem to be coming true today?

Beyond being the foundation of most ancient religions and much of Ufology, how did the Sumerian Myths stream into the metaphysical consciousness and magical practices of the Gnostics? Is Sophia a version of Innana and is Enkil the Demiurge enslaving humanity? Vanessa Kindell and Occult Fan arrived to the Virtual Alexandria. From Sumerian magic to archeology to myths, we cover it all.

We explore the work of one of history’s greatest film directors: Krzysztof Kieślowski. This includes the symbolic and mystic meanings of such classics as The Double Life of Veronique and The Three Colors trilogy. Our discussion leads into broader esoteric themes like Jungian psychology, extended consciousness, and idealism.

Beyond drawing from Egyptian mythology, the Book of Genesis is a coded chronology of ancient Egypt. The Hebrew patriarchs are more than fables, paralleling key pharaohs and their dynastic intrigue. We explore the Old Testament heroes with breakthrough scholarship that unveils a secret history — as well the Egyptian myths behind major Judeo-Christian stories. From Akhenaten to Moses, from Horus to the Nephilim, we leave no pyramid-stone uncovered.

On this Aeon Byte Live, we celebrated the show’s 13th anniversary by closing many loops. Gordon White and Chris Knowles honored the Virtual Alexandria for a journey that covered astrotheology, star maps, ancient & modern Gnosticism, and how the Empire Never Ended. In the end, it was a stark warning on weaponized Gnosticism, but with a hopeful message that the best is yet to come if we just look inward.

We get intimately acquainted with one of the last surviving Gnostic sects from ancient times. Their lineage goes back to the times of Jesus, and their theology is even older. Who are the Druze of the Middle East and how were they able to retain their ancient mysteries throughout a hostile history? Our guest also discusses his new novel that contains the secret roadmap to timeless Gnosis.

We take a comprehensive examination of the many ways the spirit world affects the material plane and our minds. This includes the spirit influence behind some of history’s notorious serial killers, as well as lauded creative geniuses. Could various mental disorders be a form of demon possession? How did the Gnostics deal with discarnate souls? In the end, we find how science has failed western culture to the point of self-destruction unless humanity again embraces ancient wisdom.

The brilliant and profound Richard Smoley arrived at the Virtual Alexandria to deconstruct traditional Easter and share how Gnosticism (and mystical Christianity) regarded the death and resurrection of Jesus. Lainie Petersen, Moondog, and Jonathan Stewart kept us company. Of course, being a Gnostic Easter, we had to cover such relevant topics as the CIA, MK-ULTRA, A Course in Miracles, Gurdjieff, and Eastern Traditions. Welcome to the Virtual Alexandria. You have risen!

What are the mechanisms at work behind today’s thriving belief system in extraterrestrials that now rival the belief in God? Could cultural expressions like The X-Files or Ancient Aliens influence how we experience supernatural beings? We explore these and other alien-related issues by delving into the latest UFO research, verified extraterrestrial encounters (ancient and modern), and the ideas of chief synchromystic thinkers like Jacques Vallée, CG Jung, Philip K. Dick, and Jeff Kripal.

The audio version of our latest Aeon Byte Live. What is the best stance for the Roman Invention of Christianity Theory? Is it from “Caesar’s Messiah” (Joe Atwill) or “Creating Christ” (James Valliant/Warren Fahy)? We found out in a friendly conversation that included the Christ-Myth Theory and ancient religion, eventually evolving into a broader discourse on philosophy, politics, and humanity’s struggle to become free from the tyranny of oligarchs.

Behind the machine and media that is Tinsel Town lie dark forces that seek to manipulate, politicize, and even enslave the human psyche. Some of these forces may be spiritual.

Many literary experts contend that one of the greatest poems in history is the Nag Hammadi library’s The Thunder, Perfect Mind. We explore this enigmatic but poignant text for timeless insights on the dignity of all humans and liberation from oppression. Who exactly is the divine but tragic female protagonist of this work? What is the background behind Thunder that ignited a unique message of individuality? Is it even Gnostic or a general treatise on ultimate awakening?

Gnosis informs us that from a young age are programmed and socially engineered by various forces. How do we see past false realities while discovering our true selves?
