Ronnie Pontiac, Author, Musician and Former research assistant to the late Manly P. Hall, returns to the show to discuss two of his new books. We begin discussing the murky history of Rosicrucianism, it's context in Renaissance and Enlightenment Europe, their roles in various wars that took place then, and how they were ultimately at the forefront of a movement that spread it's influence from Europe into the New World and helped populate the colonies with free thinkers who helped create America. In the second half of the show we discuss the passing of his partner Tamra Lucid and how her afterlife connection with him rhymes with a book written 100 years ago and may be responsible for facilitating the afterlife connection between them in the first place. Ronnie shares the heart wrenching and ultimately comforting story in his latest book the last book he wrote with Tamra; https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfBN6qhJoWGQE4P4vPHn24gmN2HLM2hVp
