Journey Into the Metaphysical World with the Goddess Connection

Joe Federico interviews Doreen Lavista, the owner of the Goddess Connection, exploring the realms of metaphysical practices, divination, and healing. Doreen shares her journey into the metaphysical world, the evolution of practices like tarot and Reiki, and the importance of bridging the gap between traditional therapy and metaphysical healing. They discuss the allure of figures like Ms. Cleo, the significance of persona in the psychic world, and the need for discernment in a landscape filled with charlatans. Doreen emphasizes the therapeutic aspects of her work and the innate human attraction to healing and intuition. In this conversation, Doreen Lavista and Joe Federico delve into the intersections of mythology, religion, and spirituality, exploring how organized religion often serves as a form of crowd control while spirituality offers a more personal connection to the divine. They discuss the historical context of witchcraft, the marketing of witchcraft imagery, and the cultural fascination with the occult in contemporary society. The conversation also touches on the importance of integrity in social media and the collective unconscious, emphasizing the shared experiences that arise during times of societal change.
