Becca Tarnas | Re-Enchanting The World And Tales From The Perilous Realm

Becca Tarnas returns to talk about the esoteric wisdom in JRR Tolkien's works. These "Fairy Stories" aren't your Mother Goose nursery rhymes--in the Perilous Realm, you'll find mystical enchantment and mortal endangerment in equal measure. Tune in to hear about legends of the hidden folk, the mythic consciousness of our ancestors, and how the love of language, magic of words, and the archetype of the inner child can help you recover the beauty and wonder of life. In the Plus+ Extension we discuss the mis-enchantment of culture through media and materialistic belief systems, Tolkien's final tale, the fairy queen at the heart of the imaginal realm, and the elvish mediators between spirit and matter.
