Our guest this time around is Dr. Carolyn Elliott. Carolyn has a PhD in Critical and Cultural Studies from the University of Pittsburgh. Her dissertation ended up as the basis for the cult-favorite book on creativity called Awaken Your Genius. Carolyn is also the founder of WITCH magazine, which gives voice and prominence to the subtle witching in the world that’s not confined to tradition and convention. She’s also the teacher of INFLUENCE, a course on mastering practical magic. All in all, Carolyn’s professional ventures aim to help people achieve dramatic positive change in their lives through shadow integration practices and applied occult philosophy. Carolyn is in the house because I came across an article she wrote for Witch magazine called “5 Keys to Understanding the Conspiracy Against Magic”. That led me to a free ebook she co-wrote called “Pluto in Scorpio”, which is an occult look at the millennial generation. Both these pieces of writing are the basis for the conversation you’re about to hear. There’s magic and psychology, the fear of the feminine and even the alchemy of Oprah. And if you don’t mind a few Skype gremlins and sexual innuendos, you’ll like this one quite a bit.
