    Fae, Gateways and Sacred Exchange
    Sep 30 2026
    What might we be seeing when we call something a fairy? Jennifer brings a student’s vivid encounter and a startling hummingbird visitation into the conversation, opening a much larger exploration with Samael about fae energy, messengers, gateways, exchange, and transformation. Together, Jennifer and Tava consider the difference between spirits of place, energetic expressions, and entities that appear at the edges of change—and why discernment, relationship, and knowing oneself matter when an invitation to exchange is offered.In This EpisodeA student’s glimpse of a small gray, winged beingJennifer’s hummingbird encounter and a lesson carried through the gatewayBirds, angels, and fae as messengersFae as beings of transition, movement, manifestation, and exchangeWhy a trade can be an invitation into self-examinationThe difference between what we have and who we areRelationship, discernment, and honoring the beings and materials we work withPart One of an ongoing conversation about the faeJourney Through This Episode00:00 — Spooky season, market magic, and Amnivara taking form03:00 — A student’s question about a gray “fairy”06:00 — A hummingbird arrives at Jennifer’s window11:00 — A tiny being, a lesson, and healing for the Earth13:00 — Permission, relationship, and the residual energy of animal materials20:00 — Samael requests a song about gateways21:00 — Musical transmission: “Gateways”27:00 — A note about Samael’s rapidly received words28:00 — What do we mean when we say “fairy”?30:00 — Nature entities, gatekeepers, and the meaning of exchange34:00 — The hummingbird as messenger38:00 — Fae energy: wild, raw, emotional, and connected to nature41:00 — Trades, balance, and participation in the process45:00 — What would you sacrifice—and what would you never give away?50:00 — Traits of fae: exchange, motion, knowledge, and transformation54:00 — Spirits of place, settling energy, and the pull of possibility01:01:00 — Self-worth, equal terms, and supercharged evolution01:05:00 — The gray being and energy at the edge state01:07:00 — Part One closes01:08:00 — Closing musical transmission with crystal and Himalayan bowlsMusical Transmissions“Gateways” — a channeled vocal transmission requested by SamaelGrounding closing transmission — voice with crystal and Himalayan bowlsFor Your JourneyMentioned in this episode:Listen to Amnivara’s music on Bandcamp — https://amnivara.bandcamp.com/Explore Jennifer’s work with Amnivara — https://www.amnivara.com/Explore Tava’s writing, classes, and offerings — https://www.tavabaird.com/Continue ExploringJennifer Taylor is Keeper of Amnivara, Reiki Master Teacher, Animal Reiki Master Teacher, sound channel, and energy practitioner.

  • The Magic of Not Knowing

    The Magic of Not Knowing
    Sep 24 2026

    Jennifer and Tava return to their conversation about expectation, control, and the strange gifts that can appear when familiar certainty falls away. From sensory-deprivation tanks and walking through a dark forest without a flashlight to divination, self-worth, and the mystery of taking one step at a time, they explore what becomes possible when we loosen our grip on needing to know the whole path. The episode closes with an unexpected musical transmission—and a message that leaves them both with much to sit with.

    In This Episode

    • What happens to time, awareness, and perception when ordinary sensory input falls away
    • The difference between the narrow “beam” of control and a wider, more responsive awareness
    • Divination as conversation rather than a demand for prediction
    • Releasing the pressure to have every answer before moving forward
    • Mist, mystery, and learning to trust the next visible step
    • Why building a relationship with a guide is part of the path
    • Self-worth, Lilith, and granting ourselves permission to approach the divine
    • An unexpected message carried through Samael following Jennifer’s song

    Eggspectations - not the breakfast restaurant
    Sep 18 2026

    As the pace of change quickens and the future feels especially tempting to predict, hosts Jennifer Taylor and Tava Baird explore the expectations we carry into rituals, relationships, divination, and everyday life. Through a channeled musical transmission with Archangel Michael and Samael, reflections on perception and possibility, and “bouquets of Lilithians,” they consider what may open when we loosen our grip on the stories we expect to be true. This is Part One of a two-part conversation.

    In This Episode

    • A musical transmission with Archangel Michael and Samael
    • Samael’s invitation to release the need to predict and control
    • The expectations we carry about how the divine sees us
    • Perception, the brain’s predictive habits, and the stories we make from them
    • Divination as conversation and perspective rather than fixed prediction
    • Choice, probability, and the possibility of changing course
    • Science, metaphysics, and the limits of what human senses can measure
    • How expectations about ourselves and others shape the worlds we enter

    Corn Mother, Ancestral Tending, and the Many Faces of Guadalupe with Alicia Enciso Litschi
    Sep 3 2026
    Sometimes the relationships that shape us begin long before we have words for them. In this first conversation with Alicia Enciso Litschi—the Wayward Curandera—Jennifer and Tava follow the threads of Corn Mother, Our Lady of Guadalupe/Tonantzin, ancestral memory, and the intelligence of the land. Alicia shares the stories, relationships, and unexpected spirals that have shaped her work, inviting us to consider how connection may find us through art, lineage, the places we love, and the questions we are finally ready to ask.Please note: this episode begins with an extended energetic musical transmission, including periods of quiet space.WATCH THIS EPISODE on YOUTUBE Journey Through This Episode00:00 — Welcoming Alicia Enciso Litschi02:35 — Ancestral Tending, Corn Mother, and Offerings to Place07:30 — A Solar Doorway Opens10:00 — Musical Transmission25:10 — “Sing, Shine, and Burn”34:10 — Corn Comes Down from the Stars37:20 — Guadalupe, Tonantzin, and the Stars45:25 — A Mother of the People53:00 — Finding Corn Mother59:30 — Beginning an Ancestor Practice01:03:00 — The Spiral Path of Ancestral Tending01:09:15 — Ways to Work with Alicia01:17:00 — “Awaken”Work With Alicia Enciso Litschi Ancestral tending work, individual sessions, groups, and writings https://www.waywardcurandera.com/Alicia’s writings, including stories of Corn Mother and Guadalupe. https://www.waywardcurandera.com/soulstories.htmlCorn Mother WritingsStories and reflections from Alicia's journeys with Corn Mother. https://offeringsforcornmother.substack.com/Specific Stories Mentioned :Jenn mentions: When People Confuse Guadalupe for Maryhttps://www.waywardcurandera.com/soul-stories-for-las-madres/when-people-confuse-guadalupe-for-mother-maryAlicia mentions a connection between Corn Mother and the Pleiades.

    Aug 27 2026
    In This EpisodeWhat might become possible when we step away from ordinary life long enough to listen for what is stirring beneath it? Returning guests Liz and Cael Jacobs join Jennifer and Tava for a glimpse inside Mystic Fire—a four-day retreat designed for deep exploration, reflection, and preparation for the dark of the year. Together they introduce four very different paths into personal power, instinct, energy, transformation, and relationship with the unseen—and explore the unexpected threads already weaving them together. With channeled song, guidance from Samael, laughter, and a few uncanny synchronicities, this conversation becomes an invitation to consider what your own soul may be ready to remember, reclaim, or bring forth.In This EpisodeThe vision behind Mystic Fire and its relationship to the dark of the yearFour immersive paths: Primal, Dragon, Phoenix, and AngelThe difference between Mystic Fire and Fertile Ground GatheringCreating space for sustained practice, reflection, and integrationThe Angel Path’s interweaving of sacred light and sacred darknessOpening pathways of communication with guidesThe Power of Story Experience for the entire Mystic Fire communityRitual, bonfires, music, drumming, and life within Seven OaksChoosing a path by listening for what resonates “in your bones”Preparing to carry the work home and into the winterSamael’s questions about reclamation, transformation, and becomingJourney Through This Episode00:00 — Welcoming Liz and Cael Jacobs02:00 — Entering the energy of Mystic Fire03:00 — An opening song with the guides of the retreat07:40 — “The fall, and then the rise”09:20 — The Primal Path11:15 — The Dragon’s Path13:10 — The Phoenix Path15:00 — Music, drumming, and the Mystic Fire bonfire16:00 — Mystic Fire and Fertile Ground: two sides of the year18:00 — One path, one community, one unfolding journey19:20 — Entering the Angel Path22:40 — Sacred light, sacred darkness, and cross-pollination26:20 — Discovering the threads between all four paths27:40 — Holding space for the practitioner31:10 — Time to reflect and connect the dots32:30 — The bonds formed within each path34:00 — What the Mystic Fire weekend looks like36:20 — The Saturday night ritual journey38:30 — Integration and preparing for re-entry39:30 — The Power of Story opens to the entire retreat40:30 — Listening for the path that speaks to you45:20 — Registration, payment plans, and Seven Oaks48:20 — Space limitations and staying connected50:00 — Mystic Fire dates and the threshold after Samhain51:10 — Your path begins before you arrive52:20 — A surprisingly brief closing song55:50 — What does the mirror hold?57:00 — Four paths weaving into one tapestryMusical TransmissionsOpening the Space for Mystic FireJennifer invites Archangel Michael, Samael, and the guides of Mystic Fire to work together through an opening channeled song—creating a joyful, many-layered field in which listeners can begin to feel into the paths and notice where they resonate.The song is followed by a message from Samael about a coming point of turning, the work of reshaping the self, and the reclamation that may become possible when we remain steady upon the road ahead.Into the Realm of BecomingA brief closing song arrives with unusual directness: complete almost as soon as it begins. Samael follows with a series of questions about the mirror, the direction of our energies, the divine self, and what we are ready to manifest:What does the mirror hold?

    Forget the Formula: Divine Timing, Living Magic, and the Currents That Hold Us
    Aug 20 2026
    What becomes possible when we stop gripping the formula and allow ourselves to be carried by the currents moving through our lives? Jennifer and Tava explore divine timing, the hidden support that gathers when we release the need to control every detail, and the difference between following prescribed words and speaking from the living truth of the heart. With channeled music from Amnivara, unexpected revelations about magic, and a closing message from Samael, the podcast’s 100th-birthday celebration opens into something neither of them anticipated—and perhaps the beginning of what comes next.In This EpisodeTrusting that what is needed can form around usReleasing the pressure to hold and manage every detailMoving from rigid schedules into a more spacious relationship with timeAllowing classes, creative work, and spiritual practice to follow the energy presentThe support that can appear when we become willing to be heldThe “right” words versus words that carry our own sincerity and resonanceThe shared power of prayer, song, and ritual spoken in communityMagic as moving energy with intentionFinding language for spiritual identities and practices that do not fit neatly into inherited categoriesRemembering that we are not walking unusual paths aloneJourney Through This Episode00:00 — “Awaken”11:00 — Asking the mind to hold too much12:30 — The Dalai Lama clock17:00 — A new ocean after 100 episodes20:30 — Trust-falling with the mind24:00 — Trusting that there will be enough28:00 — Turning the day into a holy place37:00 — Making room for what cannot be scheduled42:30 — Becoming willing to be held44:30 — The “right” words and the resonant words50:00 — The power of speaking together55:30 — What is magic?1:00:00 — There are others like us1:03:30 — A closing musical transmission1:15:00 — Samael’s closing messageMusical Transmissions“Awaken”The episode begins with Awaken, channeled by Jennifer in collaboration with Archangel Michael and a Nature Spirit Teacher for the Mystic Fire ritual. The transmission is offered to support the awakening of the Divine Self and illuminate the way forward.Closing TransmissionThe closing music arrives in two movements. The second feels to Jennifer like both a breaking open and an energetic scaffolding for what may come through in the podcast’s next 100 episodes. As Tava allows herself to join the music rather than resist what she is experiencing, the transmission becomes a living expression of the episode’s invitation to release the formula and follow what is moving through.For Your JourneyMentioned in this episode:Listen to Amnivara on Bandcamp — https://amnivara.bandcamp.com/Darkflower Books & Folk Art — https://www.tavabaird.com/The Blue Ball Inn — https://bbi1747.com/Free Spirit Gathering — https://www.freespiritgatheringmd.org/Continue ExploringPrivate Soul Resonance Sessions with Jennifer — https://amnivara.com/soul-resonance-sessions — Individual sessions shaped by the energies, guidance, sound, and movement present for you.Reiki Training — https://www.willowridgereiki.com/reiki-training-overview — Explore Reiki as a living relationship and learn to work with energy through your own direct experience.The Power of Story — https://www.willowridgereiki.com — Channeled story, sound, movement, and energetic experience with Jennifer, Tava, and Keith.Amnivara on Bandcamp — https://amnivara.bandcamp.com/ — Channeled music and energetic transmissions for healing, journeying, ritual, and remembrance.Classes, books, and community with Tava Baird — https://www.tavabaird.com/ — Explore Tava’s Lilithian teachings, events, writing, and Darkflower community.Closing ReflectionWhere might you be gripping the formula—trying to remember every detail, find the right words, or make life conform to a structure that no longer holds what you are becoming?

    The Currents We Carry: Resistance, Reclamation, and the Courage to Be Held
    Aug 13 2026

    The Currents We Carry: Resistance, Reclamation, and the Courage to Be Held

    Mystical Musings celebrates its 100th episode before returning to the mysterious energetic currents flowing through our world—and through us. Why might the same spell produce different results for different people? What happens when something once created to protect us begins interfering with the energy trying to move through? With channeled messages from Samael, an excerpt from Tava’s forthcoming novel, stories of Reiki and synchronicity, and an invitation to reclaim a place from the past, this conversation leads to the edge of fear, trust, and the possibility of allowing ourselves to be held.

    In This Episode

    • Celebrating 100 episodes of Mystical Musings
    • The New Energy present before the next becoming
    • How place, physical history, discernment, and comfort influence magic
    • Why old spells cannot always produce reproducible results
    • Resistance, energetic dams, and protections that may have outlived their purpose
    • Trusting our own intuitive and energetic language
    • Reiki, synchronicity, and releasing blocked energy
    • Reclaiming places from the past
    • Recognizing when the way has opened
