Aeon Byte Gnostic RadioOct 30, 2026

Italian scholar Umberto Capotummino argues that a hidden numerical code links the Egyptian Book of the Dead, the Chinese I Ching, and the Gnostic system of Basilides of Alexandria. Through number patterns like 24, 64, 384, 365, 153, and 666, he claims ancient priests and sages encoded the same map of sacred time and the soul's journey toward immortality. The episode explores Abraxas, Chnoubis, the Ba and Akh souls, and a divinatory method for reaching Egyptian spells through I Ching hexagrams.

Journalist and author Joseph L. Flatley joins Aeon Byte to discuss his Inner Empire podcast series, which looks at how the same mental techniques magicians use to reshape perception have been absorbed by cults, self-help movements, intelligence agencies, and social media algorithms. Building on occultist Joseph Lisiewski's idea of subjective synthesis, he traces a line from Renaissance magic through Werner Erhard's Est, Timothy Leary, Charles Manson, and Arizona UFO cult leader Gabriel of Sedona. Flatley also describes his own years of sustained ritual practice devoted to Hecate, and draws on anthropologist T.M. Luhrmann's research to explain how imagination becomes the channel for divine or magical communication.

Aeon Byte host Miguel Conner welcomes Ravenna 'Raven' Dame, a self-described 'Gnostic witch' who says she began channeling the Gnostic goddess Sophia after activating her third eye in February, following a stillbirth in 2024. Raven claims Sophia split her soul into many vessels to survive a war waged by 'the fallen' led by her son, the Demiurge, and has been asleep for 3,500 years. She describes herbal protocols she says were channeled from the gods, which Conner credits with improving his arterial disease, and the two promote a 'Tree of Life' AI app meant to guide users through spiritual awakening.

Occult researcher Alex Rivera walks through his books, including The Baphomet co-written with the late Tracy Twyman, framing them as stages of an alchemical Great Work. He traces the Baphomet from the heresy charges against the Knights Templar through the Austrian orientalist Joseph von Hammer-Purgstall and Eliphas Levi, and links it to Gnostic, Sufi and Hermetic currents. Along the way he weighs whether Templar artifacts in the British Museum reveal a hidden Gnostic religion that later resurfaced in Freemasonry.

Occult researcher and filmmaker Nikolas Schreck joins host Miguel Conner to explore Abraxas, the enigmatic Gnostic deity he calls the true god of this realm and the key to awakening from the illusion of material existence. Schreck traces how the name of Abraxas spread through modern culture, from Carl Jung and Hermann Hesse's novel Demian to Carlos Santana, Charles Manson, David Bowie, and Philip K. Dick. He also argues that Abraxas and the Egyptian god Set may be the same being, and he frames current world events as the last gasp of the Demiurge.
