Aidan was a talismanic jeweller (now retired) & author, living in the mountains of New Mexico.

His approach is both informed and driven by my magical practice and spirit contacts.  Aidan works from the viewpoint that magic, sorcery, shamanry, witchcraft and related practices are the root of human spiritual culture. As Western societies grow more fundamentalist (particularly in the USA), in their expressions of both religion and materialism, there has been strong pressure to move away from the magical approaches which are,  he believes, the birth right of humans.

His aim as author, sorcerer, and artist is to facilitate this communication between ourselves and these others.

In this episode we discuss this and the way that art and magic are the same and the information that Aidan shares I believe is fundamentally import for artists and musicians. I have found his books, Six Ways and Weaving Fate inspiring.
