ARCANVM's Ike Baker in Conversation

About this episode

In this episode, I converse with Ike Baker, a prominent figure in Western esotericism, discussing his contributions as an author and educator, and his high-quality podcast.

Ike Baker of ARCANVM Podcast joins us to talk about his work, including traveling to Egypt, his presentations, podcast, and books. Ike Baker is one of the most prolific and important voices in Western esotericism. I have respect and admiration for what this man does and is. He is, in my personal opinion, one of the most accurate and accessible authors / presenters of topics in the realm of Western esotericism. I also highly recommend Baker's first book, A Formless Fire as perhaps the single best tome about Western esotericism that I've ever read. I also owe Ike an apology because, due to my own negligence, I'm posting this interview many months after I'd intended to do so. I am sorry for that and also grateful to offer you this wonderful conversation, better late than never. https://ikebaker.com/ Ike Baker's ARCANVM Podcast on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHRO82-ZxrsLmvupn8VkZG4Tj2xhSbtIH ARCANVM Podcast on Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/1gLl4Nu0yBfSVtggiDAPK2?si=cf668b763d064b5d A Formless Fire: Rediscovering the Magical Traditions of the West by Ike Baker - https://a.co/d/g4FsVnz Ætheric Magic: A Complete System of Elemental, Celestial &amp…
