Ep 131: “A more whole experience of reality” with Chad Andro of Radical Elphame

I chat with Chad Andro from the excellent Radical Elphame Podcast and companion substack at https://thefoliatehead.substack.com/ and his Patreon https://www.patreon.com/cw/RadicalElphame.

We discuss

Communications with fairies and spirits which arise in words and images

Engaging with spirituality and fear as a child

Overwhelming spiritual experiences

The framework he has learned and its application to more difficult experiences

What it’s like to balance being a parent finding time for personal practice

Writing as an offering

His advice on how folks could start engaging with these worlds

On the EXCLUSIVE FULL LENGTH version on TMFSP Patreon:

Chad discusses his organic winemaking business near Mount Shasta and describes how his spiritual and ritual practice feed into that for his clients and the kinds of energies that arise in relation to the wine production. We also get into what it was like to discover Wicca growing up  in the nineties and how he instead chose a Trad Witchcraft and animist route.

Chad will also be joining us soon on TMFSP Patreon for a private chat
