Arctic Express & Prognostication

Arctic Express hurtling through Southern Arizona today. With the unpredictability of the weather for tomorrow (seeing as how they predicted snow, then recanted it, and now it's snowing), we have created a contingency plan for the broadcast.

1) Best case scenario - Jo'Ann & I both make it to the studio to do the show live.
2) Another possibility - County roads too scary for me, but Jo'Ann makes it to the studio, and I call in.
3) Nobody makes it and we re-run the Wiccan show from Dec. 3.

I strongly suspect that we'll all make it to the studio and have a great show!

Tomorrow's show is titled "Standing on the Edge of Tomorrow," and we will discuss psychic development and prognostication. (Prognostication derives from the Greek "pro" (before) and "gnosis" a special kind of knowing - thus "foreknowing.") We will talk about what's coming up in 2011 & 2012, and about the accuracy (or lack thereof) of the predictions out there.

I've not met Jo'Ann in person yet, but I've heard her and her husband both on the radio, and have had lengthy email correspondence with her as well as talked by phone. I'm very impressed. I first emailed Jo'Ann after hearing her husband on KJLL's Gnosis program on Saturday afternoons.

I was immediately impressed upon learning that she was one of the mediums who had worked with University of Arizona professor, Dr. Gary Schwartz. I was aware of his work with mediums in his project to find evidence of life after death. Then I got to know more about Jo'Ann's own work in psychic development, mediumship, and healing. Everything she told me made me realize this was someone I not only wanted to have on my show, but someone I wanted to get to know personally.

She's very down to earth and real about a profession many consider to be so "out there." She has been teaching an oracular development class for several years, and we will hear tomorrow night about how each of us is his or her own Oracle, not only in the sense that those gifts can be developed, but also in the sense of simply paying attention to what he see and know right now.

Join me tomorrow night and learn more about yourself and your own gifts in addition to learning what this psychic and medium has to say about the future for all of us.

The bounty continues!

Autumn bounty! We pulled in the last of the third harvest this morning: tomatoes, a couple of white eggplant, and the last of the corn which will go to our growing farmfowl population. The weather was glorious -- sunny, gorgeous October blue skies, and upper 60's.

I feel victorious today. I landed the first sponsorship account for MindCast. Once I got over my fear of cold-calling (thanks to some great coaching from KJLL's media director, Christopher Lidberg), it was actually fun! The reaction to the MindCast idea has been very warm -- people are getting excited!

I mentioned Jo'Ann Ruhl, professional psychic and medium, in my last post. She will be on AM 1330 on Gnosis this Saturday at 3 pm doing a special Samhain (Sow'en) show. It can also be live-streamed at www.tucsonsjolt.com from any web browser other than Firefox. Give it a listen, and let me know what you think! She will be MindCast's guest on New Year's Eve talking about oracles, psychics, and prognostication. Jo'Ann has taught a class on psychic development for the last 7 years, and is well known as an astrologer and energy healer as well.

I am postponing the MindCast debut for a week for several practical reasons. 1) I'm going to have an emergency tooth extraction next week and I'm not sure how much I'll feel like talking come Friday. 2) It will give me more time to sew up some sponsorship deals, and 3) it will give the KJLL production guys a chance to breathe after the election before jumping in to do our ads.

So tune in on Friday, Nov. 12th at 6 pm. We will talk about experiences "beyond the veil." Email us at mindcast1330@gmail.com, or call live during the broadcast (520-529-3508) to share your own story.
