his may well be the penultimate Light in the Fog podcast – in part 1 of God, Stingrays, and the Why, Jenny and Trai discuss the purpose of reincarnation, how and why clearing karma is a good things to do, plato’s cave, media influences – always media influences! – the nature of god and consciousness, and the coolest ways to die -- and how to be good with it. It’s time to take the charge out of your current incarnation! Next week we get to actual past life readings.

Boy Howdy, we have been through it! Once again your hosts dig deep: Jenny and Trai talk about hitting potential exit points last month and what the meaning of Harvest this particular year means to them. Samhain is when we look at all the hard work we’ve done for the year so we can accept and receive that work. It’s the witchest holiday on the Witches Wheel – come hear about all the magic we’ve experienced!

Show Description: Hello and welcome to a very special guest episode with BJ Segura, a filmmaker and ghost hunter who specializes in horror and the supernatural. I had to take a mental health hiatus this week, but Trai carries the torch in a very special and very spooky conversation about ghosts, horror movies and the powers within us all.

BIO FROM BJ:

I am a filmmaker who specializes in horror shorts and scriptwriting. Every week I co-host 3Haunted Podcast where we talk everything metaphysical, horror and the paranormal. I just joined this podcast last year but they have been around and very successful for years. I have a personal podcast called Tales From the Drive-In. I mainly focus on film and the paranormal with guests I meet at horror conventions. At each convention I take part in their cosplay costume contests and have won a couple of awards over the years. When I get the chance I also love traveling to haunted places in and out of the country with my most recent journey was to Scotland where I visited many amazing and ancient ruins with a deep history in the paranormal.

So much witchcraft to learn – and reject wholeheartedly – from Hollywood movies! Jenny and Trai revisit three of their favorite rites of passage witch movies: The Craft (the original), Witches of Eastwick, and Eve’s Bayou. What do these movies get spookily right about witchcraft and what ends up patriarchal propaganda? The Light in the Fog hosts go full fangirl, dishing the stories, the themes, and the magic.

Spoilers for all these movies!

Both Light in the Fog hosts have mental illnesses, but it behaves quite differently, as Jenny explains in the Tides of Bipolar. Jenny is medicine-resistant, type 2 BiPolar, and it’s all about the cycles. Not the moon or seasonal cycles – or at least not in the way you think. Jenny brings the research that explains the circadian pacemaker running the bi-polar show!! Prepare to have your mind blown! Meanwhile, Trai’s PTSD is more of a pattern – triggered more by random emotional shrapnel than a calendar, and we explore that stuff, too.

For lucky episode 13, we have an intense episode that deconstructs where our patterns and programming of behavior and coping originated – was it our parents? Their parents? Society in general? Capitalism? Our biochemical make up? Past lives? All of it?? Jenny and Trai discuss how we learned to recognize being activated, how to create space around it, and the beginnings of how to heal. The answer might just be roller coasters.

Ollie’s full of ghosts! Jenny’s friend explains how it all got started with a terrifying middle school encounter with a presence that never went away. They only got closer! And then came the time gapping and returning quite different – new friends, weight loss, and other inexplicable changes that Ollie didn’t make.Time for some rules! Come learn how Ollie’s learned to live with they call the followers.We are putting a TRIGGER WARNING on this episode for SI and violent content.

Depression is one of the trickiest and most universal subject matters in these modern times. It’s been a major part of both Trai and Jenny’s lives, as well as the lives of our families and friends. In this episode, we speak frankly about how it’s affected our time on this plane of existence and what we hope for our futures, despite being wired for despair. Added points for the look at the generational impacts and approaches to melancholy management. This episode is just our recordings and will not have any video on Youtube.
