Magic and Nature with Serena Roney-Dougal (4K Reboot)

Serena Roney-Dougal, PhD, received a doctoral degree from the University of Surrey, in the United Kingdom, for a parapsychological dissertation. She is author of Where Science and Magic Meet and The Faery Faith: An Integration of Science with Spirit. She resides in Glastonbury, England, where she served on the Town Council. Her website is https://www.psi-researchcentre.co.uk/

Here she describes magical practices dating back to neolithic times in Britain. She explains that certain sites were used for burials, initiations, and ritual activities. These were carefully coordinated with the seasons and the movement of celestial bodies. She describes her own experience inside an ancient chamber of initiation. She also discusses how people's experience of supersensible worlds is shaped by the mythology of their culture.

New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in "parapsychology" ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). He is also the Grand Prize winner of the 2021 Bigelow Institute essay competition regarding the best evidence for survival of human consciousness after permanent bodily death. He is Co-Director of Parapsychology Education at the California Institute for Human Science.
