Today we’re looking at the energy surrounding press secretary Karoline Leavitt, a name that’s been in the headlines for her polished delivery and how she handles tough questions. Some say she’s confident; others call it deflection. In this Tarot Brief, we explore what’s really behind that presentation, the energy of projection, control, and the blurry space between truth and illusion. When words are used to shape perception instead of clarity, something in the collective starts to shift. This isn’t about politics, it’s about patterns, power, and the energy behind how truth is managed. For Entertainment Purposes Only

Episode 6: The Mind That Made Itself Tulpa, Thoughtforms, and Belief-Made Beings Can a thought become alive? In this episode, we travel through the strange world of tulpas and thoughtforms. Beings said to be born entirely from the power of the human mind. From the mystical roots of Tibetan Buddhism to the occult experiments of the early 1900s, and the curious revival of tulpamancy in online communities, we’ll explore how imagination can blur into reality. Are tulpas psychological tricks? Or ancient truths reborn in digital form? And if belief can create sentient minds… what else might it be shaping in the world around us? This episode also ventures into the collective dimension of belief, the egregore, a shared psychic construct that emerges when many minds focus on the same idea. From internet myths like Slender Man to the mechanics of placebo, faith, and self-fulfilling prophecies, we’ll uncover how thought itself may be the most powerful creative force of all. Mentioned Concepts & References: - sprul-pa (Tibetan Buddhism) – The original concept of an emanation body - Annie Besant & C.W. Leadbeater – Thought-Forms (1905) - Alexandra David-Néel – Magic and Mystery in Tibet (1929) - The Philip Experiment (1970s) – Collective consciousness experiment in parapsychology - The Egregore – “Group mind” concept in occult philosophy - Placebo Effect & Self-Fulfilling Prophecy – Cognitive parallels to belief-made phenomena Next Episode Teaser: If thoughts can create minds… can they also shape reality? In the next and final episode of Mind Beyond Matter, we ask the ultimate question: Is reality malleable? Stay curious… stay unreal, in the best way.

The Young Republican National Federation is in hot water after a leaked group chat revealed messages so ugly, they barely seem real, racial slurs, degrading holocaust references, and a level of casual hate that should stop anyone in their tracks. But this episode isn’t about the filth they said. It’s about the people defending it. The ones calling it “a joke,” “taken out of context,” or “kids being kids.” ( these are grown adults, knowing good and well what they are saying, BTW) Why do people rush to protect the indefensible? What energy drives someone to excuse what they know is wrong? Remember, for entertainment purposes only.  Also, the YRNF came out and issued a statement condemning the members that did this and asking them to resign, at least there is that.  In this Tarot Brief, we look at the deeper patterns behind denial, loyalty, and the need to belong, and how easily those instincts can turn into moral blindness.

What is it like to be a culture?
