35. 101 TRUTH IN SHIFTS while/in TRANSFORMATION with EIREN
01:10:43||Season 3, Ep. 35Following up our centennial cast with a special guest Eiren of @thetempleofmirrors, where we talk about the specific magick of mirrors and the crossroads. Many might feel like the terms “shadow work” “mirrorwork” and “listening to our inner truth” are overplayed statements, but there is power in simple and lived examples. If you feel like you need a companion (karamay, katuwang) through the depths of the recent transformations that could be full of questions and the sense of feeling lost in the liminal space of change, then this is the episode for you. Personally I find Eiren’s voice here a refreshingly simple at payak in approach and clarity with regards to shepherding the Self through it’s many changes. I hope you all enjoy this episode as much as I did!

34. 100 READ THROUGH: To Sleep in the Treebanks of Ancestors
29:20||Season 3, Ep. 34Hello so this is the last podcast before the start of the Lunar New Year, and just like we needed here are: Roots. This is a very potent, read out loud instructionals to a simple game about drawing and re-telling the tales of your family tree. For lyrical, soul-level-mytho-poetic games, I really think there’s a magick of being read aloud to, like having a grandma or someone simply older than you telling you a good old story. I hope that even if you don’t come to play this game, that the reading of it feels comforting like a grassy forrest you wander around until you find bravery to pick up your own voice or pen. The printed out game is quite helpful for layouting or making little tents:https://mariabumby.itch.io/treebanksofancestorsMaria’s Gamedev Page: https://mariabumby.itch.io/Happy spring whereever (and whenever!) you are. —Let’s help each other!

20:46||Season 3, Ep. 32Hello so this is another read through of this time a more recent game, a lyrical almost DIY slammed poetry list of how to shapeshift or — TRANSMORFIGY. This is for all the folks who enjoy pulling out litanies of stories ( or maybe horrors ) from their own bodies and really testing and experimenting, with how the things in our bodies exit or talk. This is quite image dense so I do recommend downloading the game to read along! so you can highlight or maybe type out comments on a mad mad pdf.

46:06||Season 3, Ep. 31We’re continuing where we left off from the last podcast and having a straight read through of the RPG Tower of Heaven, a circa 2020 game about an ex-angel breaking into heaven about an ex-love. If you’ve ever loved supernatural stories that are cozy and at the same time heart wrenching, then this game and it’s prompts will be perfect for you! Sometimes we do need the realms of story and fictions to expound on what we feel, through borrow paints, and timelines expanded. This is direct read of the instructions of the game and i do read all 78 rooms of tower of heaven, each one a reinterpreted scape of the classical tarot deck. Feel free to pause at any parts/rooms that you like or even randomly shuffle through the audio. I hope you enjoy the Worlds I built back in 2020 as much as I do. This is part 2 of 2, of a coupled episode where the first episode is a sample playthrough of the game, where I play out the story of Kenneth. —Game link: https://mariabumby.itch.io/towerofheaven Maria’s Gamedev Page: https://mariabumby.itch.io/—Let’s help each other!

31:19||Season 3, Ep. 30A new format for the new year! In this episode Maria plays through an old RPG game they wrote in 2020 about an ex-angel breaking into heaven about an ex-love. A story of liminality and symbol, we explore the space of Stories (a general one or a particular one) and how it can activate the untouched rooms of our psyche. This is part 1 of 2, of a coupled episode where the second episode will be a read through of all 78 rooms of tower of heaven, each one a reinterpreted scape of the classical tarot deck.For this play through, I tell the story of Kenneth a being of particular restriction and regret. —Game link:https://mariabumby.itch.io/towerofheavenMaria’s Gamedev Page:https://mariabumby.itch.io/—We build the world into a kinder place by helping each other:If you appreciate this kind of work send tips here: paypal ,You can support monthly here: patreon Book a session/Ask Questions! mariamison.ioSend this link to a family or friend :)28. 96 How to Listen to Your Intuition: Differentiating from Overthinking
17:33||Season 3, Ep. 28A relatively short but important podcast! In this episode we pick apart the different nature (or even orientation) of listening to Intuition versus Overthinking. For many, accessing the many depths and spiritual intelligences inside of us feels overly magickal, miraculous when it can surely be everyday, lived and embodied. In this episode, we walk through the capacities to discern but also drop into the well of intuition inside of us, a sure web and compass from our Soul and how to increasingly grow momentum and trust with it.

01:16:28||Season 3, Ep. 26If you ever feel like your end of year ruminations need to process not just the past years, but the past several years (and larger cylces) then you’re not alone. Time is fudgy! And there are a lot of concepts, assumptions and expectations we bake into how things end (or don’t end), or how things tie up and awkwardly transition into things you notice happening (or don’t notice! happening at all). Join the conversation with Maria and Anna as they walk through the cyclical in between of being between eras and grief, and yielding to heart that both Knows (and maybe doesn’t need to know). Listen in :)Note: Episode has significant tagalog as kwento/chika/storytelling Covers:haircuts, shedding color schemes, skinssaturnian changes, marking endings or ever transitioning beginningsEg: oh it’s still alive it’s just …in a different form now…when do gardens actually end? definitions of “sacred” changing: salt water is salty no matter the shapechanging versus just being at peace with “muchness”rush to have answers but maybe we shouldn’t have them? absolutelywhat’s a miracle you didn’t even plan for?
