This month during our monthly conversation about Spirituality and Politics, Marielena Ferrer and I delve into the idea of the Sabbath, a day of rest. Inspired by this New Yorker article, we talk about the history of the Sabbath, what it would mean if we all could enjoy a day of rest, the complexity and inequity in the concept of rest, how we relate to it personally, and what a universally accepted day of rest might do for community and global relations.

Let us know what you think!

Here’s your Moon report for this Saturday’s New Moon.

Today’s show was engineered by Ian Seda from Radiokingston.org.

Our show music is from Shana Falana!

#134 Jaguar Mary X “Midnight Medicine Journey”

Apple Podcasts Google Podcasts Spotify Subscribe on Android Leave a Review Download Subscribe via RSS Listen in a New Window

Today’s guest is none other than Jaguar Mary X host of Midnight Medicine Journey, a show that was birthed as a mash-up of recitations and discussions about science-fiction books by people of color, interviews with local and global artists, plant healers, spiritual visionaries, and medicine people with featured music from around the world. It continues to evolve as JMX expands and expounds about afro-futures, plant medicine, ancestors and spirit-infused ritual practice with an emphasis on queerness and mysticism. JMX identifies as a performance artist, a medicine woman working primarily with the plant mugwort, an elder, a fairy being, a hooper, a buddhist, all gender or non-gender, and down for discussing the movement away from the punitive justice system. Today we get to learn a little about JMX’s upbringing and deep dive into Buddhism at an early age which included hours of chanting mantra which led to some sharing of wisdom on language, decipherability, thought processes, and neurological rewiring. JMX shares their love of mugwort, how they use it in incense and ritual. Speaking of, you can purchase the magical stuff that she makes via artemisianegra.com/ In the vein of mugwort and ritual, we talk self care and one of JMX’s favorite Midnight Medicine Journey shows on Nap Ministry and rest as resistance.

We close out the show talking about anger, desire, happiness, and gratitude. I am grateful for Jaguar Mary X and the archive of her shows that await me.

Today’s show was engineered by Manuel Blas of La Dosis Perfecta.

Our show music is from Shana Falana !!!

We also heard, “Beautiful One” by Simi Stone, “Dance” by ESG, and “If You Could Hear Me Now” by The Mammals.
