Goddess Wisdom with Joanna Kujawa

New Thinking AllowedAug 26, 2026

Author and self-described spiritual detective Joanna Kujawa argues that goddesses may be more than Jungian archetypes: they could be real ancient beings or interdimensional entities carrying suppressed feminine wisdom. Drawing on the myths of Inanna, Pistis Sophia, and Demeter, she describes a recurring pattern in which divine feminine consciousness is tricked into descending, forgets itself, and later ascends again. She claims a mistranslation turned 'Holy Wisdom' into the 'Holy Spirit' and offers practical ways to consciously choose archetypes and connect with goddess consciousness.

Nikolas Schreck on Secrets of Abraxas

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.

Dr. Paul Bishop on Jung and Nietzsche: Alchemists of the Abyss

Aeon Byte Gnostic RadioJul 17, 2026

Scholar Dr. Paul Bishop discusses the third volume of his series 'Jung and the Epic of Transformation', which examines how Nietzsche's 'Thus Spoke Zarathustra' shaped Carl Jung's psychology and his visionary Red Book. Both men were sons of clergymen who descended into the 'abyss' of the unconscious. Nietzsche collapsed into madness, while Jung, grounded by family, profession, and community, returned to tell the tale. The conversation contrasts Nietzsche's proclamation that 'God is dead' with Jung's view that God is sick and must be healed, and explores the dangers and rewards of the inner journey.
