Sensory awareness and when less truly is more. Inspired by the foreword to Space/Time Magic.
What is Sensory Awareness?
Dave recommends “The Einstein Factor” by Win Wenger, Ph.D. and Richard Poe as an excellent academic guide to this topic and how to enhance sensory awareness.
When is heightened Sensory Awareness a good thing for metaphysical workings?
For what metaphysical workings is lessened Sensory Awareness a good thing? (More is not always better)

Topics of Discussion
Predicting the Future, rational explanations vs. the inexplicable
Good foresight vs. actual predictions. Is this behavior expected?
Dave Note: Locking something… OMG, I lost the key and can’t get this open!
Fears and Hopes
Predictions vs. trying to find the truth in what you said
Dave Note: Look, I predicted an earthquake. It was 0.8 on a fault line in Alaska!
Write it down!
Dave Note: Perception influences memory. Good luck editing what was written without you realizing it. Objective records can help indicate if you are truly making predictions.
Details
It’s one thin to say “something bad will happen” - it’s quite another to say “Some building called the World International Building or something will get hit by a large missile rocket thing and explode like dirt. This will take place on 9/1/2001.” - inaccurate but still creepy.
Pagan Symbols
What symbol or symbols do you wear and why?
What personal experiences have you had relating to people noticing your symbol of faith?
Notes: A podcast that proves by example that podcasting isn’t for everyone. If you’re going to start a podcast… please have something to say, preferably something different from what other Pagan podcasters are already saying.

The Secrets In Plain Sight! Episode for June 7, 2008. Good rant about why censoring/hiding something makes it more difficult to cope with stuff.
