On the Magical Real: Introduction

Lola & The Poets podcast is a virtual alchemical workshop exploring personal and collective magical journeys, all the ways the mystical & the mundane intertwine. Psychology, culture, art, alchemy. Solo shows & interviews. Out every odd Thursday. Hosted by Milana Vujkov.

In Episode 1, I’m introducing the series as host, riffing on the idea of the magical real, talking alchemy in psychology, society, culture & the arts, the topics we will be covering on the shows, guests we will have, and a bit about my life & professional background. (36 mins)

SHOW NOTES: Lola On Film Film, the Alchemical Medium | Serbian Society For Integrative Arts Psychotherapy |

Lola & The Poets podcast art material is the vast vault of our planetary heritage of storytelling & healing, its artistic process is one of soul exploration, and its artistic production is of a personal magical nature, applied in our lives as a tool for being a good human.

The topics we’ll be discussing in solo shows, and with our guests, will cover the realms of philosophies, cosmologies, myths, spiritual practices & storytelling across the globe, the imaginal realm, medicine cultures, shamanism, transcendental states, transpersonal and archetypal psychology, the re-emergence of the Goddess archetype, art psychotherapy, creative exploration of the mystical, use of artistic expression as a therapeutic tool, anthropology of ritual, cinema as modern magic, personal symbolism and temenos – the sacred space, dreams & dream time, shadow work, body language, animal wisdom, plant healing practices, ancestral lineage healing, archetypal patterns in our lives, paranormal & psychedelic experiences, gift of prophecy, astrology, tarot, various forms of divination, precognition & psychic awareness, psychogeography, wanderlust, and the holy pilgrimage. Seeing the world through the eyes of a poet.

My plan is to have an episode out every odd Thursday, hopefully once a month, which means that it will drop whenever there’s something to say, or a guest to talk to – but the day of the week will always be the same.

Stay tuned, poets.
