The Earth Keepers Podcast

Ke'oni Hanalei is the founder of Pohala Fern Medicine. If you follow Ke'oni on Instagram, you have likely encountered his near daily Ferncasts where he shares the teachings and medicine of the Hawaiian ferns, intertwined with the indigenous knowledge of the Hawaiian islands. His clear transmissions and joyful nature are always a pleasure in my feed, inviting us all to deeply participate in the creation of our lives and our co-creation with this planet. Ke’oni offers the medicine of the ferns through the medicinal oils he creates through careful harvest, distillation, extraction and ceremony. And let me tell you, his offerings are potent and powerful.  We recorded this conversation back in mid-July, prior to the devastating wildfires on Maui, where Ke’oni lives. He has since been a vocal and active participant in calling for the repair and restoration of Moku’ula - the original seat of energetic power in Lahaina on Maui.  This location is an incredibly important axis mundi, or energetic distributor, in the earth’s grids and the inner-earth waters, and the energy was disrupted through the colonization of the islands. There's a link in the show notes below if you’d like to learn more about Project Moku’ula and participate in this project - I have already encoded and sent an andara crystal from my land to Maui and you can do the same. Please enjoy my conversation with the Fern Man, Ke'oni Hanalei.   To learn more about the resources mentioned in this episode, visit the show notes.

Aislinn Kerchaert is an Initiated Kontomble Voice Diviner. The Kontomble are known as the little people from the Dagara Tribe in Burkina Faso. Their medicine and ways were brought to the West by Elder Malidoma Somé over the past thirty years. The Little People are known by many names across many cultures and are recognized as leprechauns, fairies, gnomes, and more- their medicine and its message is universal in nature. Kontomble are the original stewards of the earth, and bringers of culture to humanity.  They have always been a part of this world, and now, more than ever- they are wanting to reconnect with humanity to guide us through the transformational times we are in. Please enjoy my conversation with Aislinn Kerchaert who brings through a channeled message at the end of the episode for all of us from the Kontomble.   To learn more about the resources mentioned in this episode, visit the show notes.

Jarod K. Anderson shares a constant stream of odd, poetic, and often philosophical observations about life, science, and the natural world on his podcast, The Cryptonaturalist. If you follow The Cryptonaturalist on Instagram but haven’t stumbled across Jarod's weird and wonderful podcast by the same name, you’re missing out. What you’ll find when you tune in is in the tradition of classic nature documentaries, but profoundly weirder. The show has been called "Night Vale meets A Prairie Home Companion" and "David Attenborough meets The X Files." The podcast loves cryptids, but focuses solely on creatures you've never heard of before. Do they exist?  Well, I guess you could say they live in Jarod’s mind. And if they live there, who’s to say that they aren’t actually hidden away in some deep, dark forest somewhere?  Either way, The Cryptonaturalist podcast is a portal to another place and time where everything is animate and the human is the tiny but curious participant in the whimsical natural world, just as it should be.  Please enjoy my conversation with Jarod K. Anderson.   To learn more about the resources mentioned in this episode, visit the show notes. Want to connect with me elsewhere in the multiverse?

Kari Allison, who does healing work with light language, to the show to discuss where exactly humanity is headed and how we can collectively create the future we’d like to see and how animals are assisting in creating new realities on the earth and creating where it is. Kari says that light language opens a portal between dimensions. As her experience with channeling in this way has unfolded, she has seen what can be unlocked for people who learn how to do this for themselves. She believes that when you consciously work with your own unique Light Language, you're in the process of living your soul purpose and contributing to the evolution of the earth, humanity and the entire cosmos.  The Light that you communicate with is encoded with YOUR innate soul essence.  Please enjoy my conversation with Kari Allison.   To learn more about the resources mentioned in this episode, visit the show notes.

Sarah Thomas believes that the stones of the Earth can show us the way to the next Golden Age. In these years of purification that we are currently experiencing, the stones are helping us to access the deepest, darkest parts of ourselves that need to be brought to the light. According to Diana Cooper’s book Discover Atlantis, Atlanteans used crystals for almost everything. They were the source of their power and technology. Crystals enhanced healing sessions, assisted in awakening psychic abilities, and helped to increase mental capacity and focus their thoughts with clarity. Enormous crystal towers in Atlantis powered the communication networks and energy grids and even controlled the weather.  And deep down, many of us remember that and are naturally drawn to working with these stones and crystals in our lives today. Sarah is no doubt one of these people. Sarah has founded the Upper Clarity School of Medicine to share the great legacy of stone medicine originally materialized by the Wu of ancient China. Sarah is a healer, acupuncturist and educator and is immersed in the clinical and academic experience of ancient stone medicine and future crystal technologies - standing squarely at the intersection of blending the past and future to help usher in a new Golden Age on Earth.   To learn more about the resources mentioned in this episode, visit the show notes.

The Harmonic Egg is an egg-shaped resonant chamber that focuses the energy of sound, light and color to restore the body’s balance and promote healing.  The client steps inside the geometrically tuned egg and reclines in a zero gravity chair for 50 minutes while being bathed in light frequencies and music specifically selected to support the client’s intention for the session. When I talk about the ancient future, THIS is the type of technology I’m talking about. Bringing back the wisdom of the ancients who worked with sound and light and geometry and marrying it with the technology of today for a truly gentle yet powerful way to experience the perfection of our body’s ability to work with the elements to heal. Gail was led down this path on her own healing journey after being diagnosed with severe cardiovascular stress and at high risk for a heart attack at the age of 37 after a series of challenging relationships and jobs.  After a series of whole body light and sound therapies reversed her diagnosis she set out to uncover both the ancient history and modern science behind light and sound as healing therapies and created something truly unique. Please enjoy my conversation with the Harmonic Egg inventor, Gail Lynn.   To learn more about the resources mentioned in this episode, visit the show notes.

As we consider what the ancient future technology should be for optimizing our human-ness, I think we have to start at the beginning and consider the technology we’re already surrounded by. The technology our human bodies evolved with. The earth. The sun. Water. Plants and trees. Modern science might finally be able to explain it all to us. But we don’t need to understand quantum physics to know that it feels good to go outside. And one person who I think stands right at that intersection of these disciplines - quantum biology, nature, and healing - is my guest today, Carrie Bennett. With multiple degrees in biology, nutrition, and bodywork, Carrie's relentless enthusiasm to learn has made her one of the leading educators in the emerging field of quantum biology. She combines deep research and clear explanations of the complex quantum mechanisms at play in the human body to teach people how to use light, water, and nature to thrive. And wait until you hear how she confirms another download I had a few years back that I’d never fully understood. I think it will blow your mind - just like it did mine.   To learn more about the resources mentioned in this episode, visit the show notes. Want to connect with me elsewhere in the multiverse?

In today’s conversation we literally go to the source.  To the creation of our universe. To remember that each of us are incredibly powerful creators, through sound. Marya Stark’s mystical, magical music always taps into a deep point of remembering in my body and my soul. The memory of sound as the creation point of the universe. In our conversation we talk about the ability of sound to rearrange reality. Or create new realities.   To learn more about the resources mentioned in this episode, visit the show notes.

In this episode, I'm chatting with author, scholar of ancient history, and wildlife tracker Sylvia Linsteadt. Sylvia's work—both fiction and non-fiction—is rooted in myth, ecology, feminism & bioregionalism, and is devoted to broadening our human stories to include the voices of the living land. I worked with Sylvia a bit last summer as I was pulling all of the threads of Season 3 into a cohesive story and have also participated in some of her writing workshops, which I can highly recommend if you’d like to find a way to weave your shamanic journeys into the written word. I just love the way she brings the ancient stories to life in our present lives.   To learn more about the resources mentioned in this episode, visit the show notes.

We're kicking off Season 4 of The Earth Keepers podcast with an interview with author, poet, creative strategist and meme artist, James McCrae. James is the author of two books - Shit Your Ego Says and How to Laugh in Ironic Amusement During Your Existential Crisis. You may already be following his Instagram account @wordsarevibrations where he shares his brilliant poems and illustrations, and memes. James makes a compelling argument for why memes are the perfect form of art to disrupt this pervasive sameness and sidestep the algorithm overlords to inject new ideas into the collective consciousness. And how we can use the technology of OUR time to bring new ideas to the world. I think you’re really going to love what he has to say about this.   To learn more about the resources mentioned in this episode, visit the show notes.

In this between seasons bonus episode, I share a deeper message I received from honeybee consciousness and how bees see the world and their role in it. Listen to hear more about the "Queen of the Queen Bees" and their gentle frequency, how bees and their hives are the temples of the spirit world, bee connections to sacred temples around the world, and the magical role of drone bees in the hive. You'll also hear a beautiful message channeled from the bees by Jacqueline Freeman, author of The Song of Increase: Listening to the Wisdom of Honeybees for Kinder Beekeeping and a Better World.   To learn more about the resources mentioned in this episode, visit the show notes.

In this final episode for Season 3, The Honeybee as Shaman, I talk with beekeeper Ariella Daly to explore the cultural and historical practices, myths, and beliefs around bees and parallel stories related to the serpent. Ariella is devoted to natural, bee-centric bee tending and has spent the past decade studying under The Path of Pollen, a shamanic honey bee tradition based in the British isles. As we wrap up this season, I wanted to explore the symbology behind the bee and the serpent which I encountered again and again on this journey with my ancestors and to explore the ancient idea of honeybee as shaman that can be found in many traditions around the world prior to Christianity.   To learn more about the resources mentioned in this episode, visit the show notes.

In this episode, we talk about Brigham Young's efforts to clear Utah Territory of the indigenous tribes who'd called the land home for thousands of years, and how he used genocide, tithes from church members, and the labor of indentured servants and slaves to build his empire. I share what it was probably like for Nils and Maria, my ancestors who immigrated from Sweden, to make the long journey and assimilate into the homogenous Mormon culture in Utah and I wonder about what traditions from the old world crossed the Atlantic with them.   To learn more about the resources mentioned in this episode, visit the show notes.

In this episode, we discuss the sacred geometry and iconography in many pre-Christian and Christian churches, including the Mormon church that points to the stars. Specifically, the alignments of the Sun, Moon and Venus with the Earth. I explain what Solomon's Temple was and why so many churches and organizations sought to pattern themselves after, the importance of astronomy and geometry in Masonry, the tradition of goddess worship in earlier religions that was removed from Christianity and Judaism, and the importance of the Rose of Venus to earlier cultures around the world.   To learn more about the resources mentioned in this episode, visit the show notes.
