Introduction
"Hi, welcome to The Crossroads. My name is Angela, and I’m the owner of Arcana Apothecary Metaphysical Shop and Healing Center. My goal in creating this podcast is to make a safe space to explore and discuss spiritual philosophy, witchcraft, shamanism, and maybe some more controversial topics like biblical texts and theories."​​
The "Love and Light" Trap
"The modern spiritual community often pushes this “love and light” philosophy. It’s this relentless positivity, of peace and harmony-which sounds good, but within that I think lies a very dangerous trap which programs people to be excessively passive and docile..."​​
Embracing Our Darkness
"The balance of light and darkness within a person is a spiritual concept that reflects the duality of our human nature. It acknowledges that both light and darker aspects exist within us and that true power comes from embracing both."
​
Our Darkness vs Our Shadow
"The two terms," darkness" and "shadow", while there is some overlap, they actually represent two different things. And that’s what I want to talk about today."
