Author of several books & tarot decks, and researcher of religion, esoterica, and mysticism, Tayannah Lee McQuillar joins us to talk dirty. Dirty by way of digging into your connection to the earth!   Getting grounded this way is a sure fire way to answer almost any of your questions about the meaning of life and how to live it. We speak briefly on cultural appropriation within magical communities, in order to make the point that the answers can be found by returning to the earth, your own lineage, and digging in.  We share an affinity for nature documentaries and she uses this as a metaphor to portray how we haven't been quite honest with ourselves.  Nature is actually very messy business.  As Tayannah put it, "If you are running toward comfort then you’re running from the uncomfortable, but that's where the real growth is."
