Christopher McIntosh on Occult Russia

Russia has always been a bricolage of spiritualities, experimental religions, and enduring shamanism. Is there such a thing as a usable and merged Russian mysticism – or at least some constant egregore? There is one, and it’s found while studying concepts/movements: Silver Age, Soviet Secret Societies, Slavic and Siberian religiosity, Greek Orthodox esotericism, and more. This investigation takes us to today’s New Age/Pagan that has made Russia a hotbed of Chaos Magic, Astrology, Sophia worship, and ceremonial magic.Astral Guest – Christopher McIntosh, author of Occult Russia: Pagan, Esoteric, and Mystical Traditions.Join the Virtual Alexandria Academy https://thegodabovegod.com/virtual-alexandria-academy/This is a partial show.
