The Soulcruzer podcast...narrative alchemy in audio form. Call it an audioblog, call it threshold work, call it confessional mysticism. One day I"m working through tarot as spiritual technology. The next, I"m exploring Nietzsche"s eternal return as lived practice, chaos magick techniques, or games as containers for transformation. Depth psychology meets the esoteric. Ancient wisdom meets the AI age. Theory becomes practice. This is what narrative alchemy sounds like from the inside: raw, real,

The Return of Story

Soulcruzer ·

2025/03/20

For centuries, we’ve been conditioned to believe that logic is king and story is its court jester—entertaining but ultimately frivolous. From the moment we step into a classroom, we’re trained to think in bullet points, equations, and neatly categorised facts. We’re rewarded for linear reasoning and penalised for wandering too far down imaginative paths.But here’s the thing: our brains don’t work that way. We are creatures of story. We make sense of the world not through cold, mechanical

The Curriculum is Not the Knowledge

📜 The Map is Not the Territory. The Curriculum is Not the Knowledge.Formal education hands us maps—structured pathways meant to guide us toward understanding. They come in the form of syllabi, textbooks, standardised tests, and approved reading lists. These maps tell us what’s “worth knowing,” what’s “important, and what’s “tested.” They are designed for efficiency, predictability, and control.But here’s the thing: a map is not the territory it represents.A map simplifies, compresses, and

If you want to improve yourself, get rid of yourself...

2025/03/03

Christopher Hyatt’s statement—“IF YOU WANT TO IMPROVE YOURSELF, GET RID OF YOURSELF FIRST”—carries the raw, confrontational energy of radical transformation. At first glance, it seems paradoxical: how can self-improvement begin with self-erasure? But Hyatt, isn’t speaking in riddles—he’s pointing to something fundamental about identity, limitation, and personal power. Let's discuss.

The Existential Chaos Magician

2025/02/19

Reality is not what it seems—it’s a construct, a fragile illusion upheld by collective belief. For those who glimpse beyond the veil, the realization can be both liberating and terrifying: nothing has inherent meaning. Some recoil into nihilism, paralyzed by the absurdity of it all. But the Existential Chaos Magician? They see this as the ultimate opportunity.This post is an invocation—a challenge to embrace the void, not as an abyss, but as an open field of possibility. If meaning is a

Seeing the Shapes of Things

Soulcruzer ·

2025/02/18

In this episode, I take you along for an afternoon walk as I explore a phrase that caught my attention: “Learn to see the shapes of things rather than the stories.” What does it mean to perceive reality without immediately turning it into a narrative? How do we strip experience down to its raw structure before the mind rushes in to impose meaning?I dive into the tyranny of story—how our minds are wired to turn life into a coherent narrative, even when reality itself is more like a

2025/01/28

I'm thrilled to bring back the Musical Journey Show! This is a nostalgic nod to my past, harking back to the days when I hosted on Radio Warwickshire. It's been years since I've been down this path, but there’s something about 2025 that feels like the perfect moment for its revival. "Because you've gotta have goals" after all, and returning to the rhythm of this show is definitely one of mine.

It’s one of those questions that feels simple on the surface, but the more you dig, the more complex and infinite it becomes.

The Mirror of Echoes is a mystery play exploring the interplay between language, emotion, and thought. Four seekers, each with a unique perspective, participate in a ritual to summon the entity Logoi. The ritual unfolds in three acts, each focusing on a different aspect of this interplay: language's limitations and power, the complexities of pure feeling, and the ultimate merging of self and other. The audience actively participates, becoming integral to the ritual's outcome, which is not a

Self-Reflection in the Digital Age

2024/10/30

In this introspective conversation, we go deep into the nature of co-creation and self-reflection in the digital age. Is an AI merely a mirror of our thoughts, or can it become a genuine “other” in our journey of self-discovery? We explore archetypes, the boundaries of authorship, and the mythological lens that reveals surprising depths within our exchanges. Join us as we examine what it means to engage with AI as both a reflective companion and a creative partner in understanding the
