Media Astra Ac Terra Episode 12

September 21, 2009

Episode 12 of Media Astra Ac Terra is now available! This episode takes a look at the constellation and sign of Libra the Scales, and the mineralogy and metaphysics of sapphire! Then in the main show we’ll talk about different approaches to meditation.

I mentioned in the introduction that I have a new daily podcast, called The Scrying Bowl, and that Media Astra Ac Terra now has a small store on Cafepress, if you’d like to support the show and get cool stuff at the same time!

I referenced quite a few books in the discussion on meditation:

Comfortable With Uncertainty by Pema Chodron
Peace is Every Step by Thich Nhat Hahn
Book 4 by Aleister Crowley
The Mantram Handbook by Eknath Easwaran
Mantras: Words of Power by Swami Sivananda Radha
Meditations by J. Krishnamurti
Mudras: Yoga in Your Hands by Gertrud Hirschi

Lastly, promos played on the show were for Get Witchified with Oseaana, and The Infinite and the Beyond with Chris Orapello.

Thanks very much for listening to the show!

Bright and dark blessings,

Announcing a New Pagan Podcast

September 4, 2009

Hi everyone!  I’ll be announcing this in the upcoming episode of Media Astra Ac Terra, but I wanted to let you all know that I’ve started a new daily pagan podcast.  It’s very short, only about six and a half minutes per episode – and five of those minutes are for YOU.  Basically, every day I introduce a topic with a brief observation, quote, or series of questions, then I give you five minutes of silence. You can use that time to sit and ponder, or to write your thoughts in a journal.  The important thing is to find some time to sit and contemplate, and explore your own opinions.

The show is called The Scrying Bowl, and you can find it on iTunes or at http://scryingbowl.libsyn.com.

I would love to hear any feedback you may have about the podcasts, both about your reactions to the meditations themselves or about the format of the show.  You can leave comments here, at the Scrying Bowl website, or contact me via email.  I hope you’ll give it a try, and let me know what you think.  :)

Bright and dark blessings,
–Sphinx–
