Summary

The King of Cups brews a potent medicine. Drinking it will change you. This King is an alchemist, bringing out the secrets you've kept hidden within. He is a trance inducer, a seducer, mixer of poisons and medicines. When the King of Cups appears in your life, you are about to encounter the Mysteries, you will become wiser, more relational. Your life will change. You may feel confused, inspired, turned on, transformed, besotted. Join us today to learn more about the power of this king, Lord of the Waves and Waters, King of Undines and Nymphs, with our special guest Brian Cotnoir. Like the King of Cups himself, Cotnoir is a master alchemist; in this episode you'll be invited to taste his magical elixir bubbling with knowledge of Hermes Trismegistus. See you beneath the waves, and between the worlds!
