"The unseen world is timelessness… so we can always go to the points we need to go to, to find what is missing." The quote is from this episode by Caitlín Matthews, who is a prolific author and spiritual teacher known for her deep work with Celtic wisdom, ancestral lineages, and the Western mystery tradition. She has written 85 books and to this day she teaches in various traditions internationally. Caitlín's shamanic vocation emerged early, marked by her unique ability to sing between worlds and embody spirits, which she shares with us in this interview. TAP in as we speak about themes such as: - Listening to the wisdom held in the land - How she grew up with severe short-sightedness – which led her to develop a form of echolocation as a child, "singing into space" to sense the world around her - Early spiritual perception – she experienced communication with nature spirits from a very young age, long before reading books - Listening to the unseen world – not in a spiritualist sense, but through direct lived experience with spirits and unseen neighbors - The indigenous considering the impact of decisions on future generations - Divination and specific questions - Knowing what we don't know - Golden Verses of Hierocles — a 2,500-year-old Pythagorean ethical teaching on how to live for example "Honor first the immortal gods… and then the daemons, the spirits that look after you." - The importance of a spiritual practice and the context - Discerning spiritual signals and to "reach through time" - The shamanistic practice of finding the effect of that is still rolling through the family line, in ancestral healing work - Helping people transition and why they can hold on longer - We also talk about grieving and Caitlin says "I get so angry when people are told at work, two months after someone close has died, to 'cheer up" - I fully agree!! - I get to ask her a final question that for me often comes up as we speak about ancestral healing, and that is one of family estrangement. Tap in and hear all of that and more. I hope you enjoy this episode and feel like sharing it with others.
