Episode 212 - Reconnecting with the Web of Life w/ Manda Scott

In this episode, I speak with the host of the 'Accidental Gods Podcast' and Author of the recent book 'Any Human Power'.. Manda Scott.. Manda and I first discuss the need for humanity to reconnect with the web of life, and listen to the teachings from it. We then discuss the power of paradigms and narratives, how humanity may have have evolved into a roadblock, and how we may need new narratives to lay the foundations for a new earth. We also talk about the power of language and how consciousness, language, and rituals, are the main components to forging an authentic reality experience. From there we discuss many other narratives currently in the mix such as; starseeds, the purpose of humanity, and where we might land as humans after the ascension process.. An incredible episode!mandascott.co.uk - accidentalgods.lifeManda Scott Bio:Manda Scott trained and worked as a veterinary surgeon before becoming an author, columnist and podcaster.Her debut novel, Hen’s Teeth, was shortlisted for the Orange Prize. Subsequent works were shortlisted for the Edgar and Saltire Awards and won the McIlvanney Prize, but it is for her Boudica: Dreaming series that she is best known. Weaving her shamanic spirituality into narratives of Britain’s pre-Roman past, these books bring alive a world in which people understand their inherent connection with the web of life.More recently, she read for a Masters in Regenerative Economics at Schumacher, the experience of which led her to set up Accidental Gods podcast and Membership Programme. Each of these explicitly aims to bring humanity closer to emergence into a connected, regenerative system by offering practices of inter-becoming within the Membership and by giving voice to the many individuals working for systemic change in the podcast.This year sees the publication of her sixteenth novel, Any Human Power, a ‘visionary’ contemporary political thriller that maps fictional – but plausible and workable – routes toward a future we’d all be proud to leave to the generations that come after us: human and more-than-human. Described by Lee Child as ‘Instantly immersive and compelling, rich and strange, human and humane’, the book weaves currents of shamanic mythology similar to those in the Boudica series through a ‘Thrutopian’ narrative of political upheaval and transformative change.She is currently writing the sequel, while aiming to bring the podcast to a wider audience. She lives with her wife, Faith Tilleray,on a smallholding in the edge-zone between England and Wales. One day, they’ll go home to Scotland… Hosted on Acast.
