Dr. Martin Shaw, one of the great master storytellers of our time, discusses the mythology and meanings of our current cultural moment and the global coronavirus pandemic. Interview host Ross McKeachie got ahold of Dr. Martin Shaw in his cottage in Dartmoor, UK, where he was on the 10th day of 14 days of isolation before being able to go home and see his daughter. With the COVID-19 pandemic at the top of everyone's mind and Dr. Shaw, fresh off of a 101 day ritual in the forest and now taking time to reflect, they tap into a state of wonder around the current mythology unfolding in the world. Questions are explored, such as: How do we sit with our discomfort and use this potent time for our own and the planet's transformation? With humour and word-weaving, Dr. Martin Shaw illuminates why mythology, story, connection with nature and self are all more important now than ever before.
Dr. Shaw's new book, "Courting the Wild Twin", is available at www.banyen.com/products/court...

I do like the interviewer, russ. I most appreciate you for giving the interview space to express at will , And equally, I appreciate you for giving space after an expression was given.

Beautiful Martin. Rumi and W.B. Yeats, two of my most favorite poets. "Longing is the return journey." I like that idea. Such an all around wonderful sharing, of the heart's journey. I am glad I discovered you, by chance. Thank you.

Dr Martin Shaw. thank you. We lack the guidance from elders in these times and you are such a wonderful guiding voice for our times. Would you share your 101 libations you speak of in this video. If we start in september we could truly retunr the light at the solstice? 🙏🏼

A profound and insightful exercise in introspection - my soul thoroughly enjoyed it. And now, I'm off to amazon to order Martin Shaw's book, drown in the content, and see where it washed me to - look forward to the journey. Much appreciated, thank you.

Oswald Spengler´s view was that Alexander was the "Napoleonic figure" of the ancient greco-roman world, the fact man who marked the triumph of reason and de facto money and power, over culture, which inevitably occurs in every high civilization in its respective cycle. And this could also be an interpretaion of the story of the Gordian knot.
