Sign My Death With Your Teeth: On - Monstrous Desire, Erogenous Shame, and the Hungers of the Witch | Sasha Ravich

This week, we are welcoming another dear friend of mine, Sasha Ravich, stellar witch, visionary spirit worker, and astrolater extraordinaire, to chat with us about their work and research within the crossroads between psychoanalysis literature and the monstrous appetite of the witch. In this episode, Sasha weaves constellations that explore the cannibalizing and vampiric scaffolding of Desire, with specific emphasis on the Witch’s journey to remove the mask of shame in order to fully embrace the spirits of both their psyche and their body. 
Is there any true reason to be ashamed of the flesh? Are we already in a symbiotic relationship with our spirits, and, why might we be afraid to acknowledge this? What is hidden within the power of true nakedness, and why might we only be able to share with those select few who are brave enough to dance along with our monsters and theirs, beneath an oceanic moon? How do we navigate the urge to devour the Other within a dance that honors the boundaries of all Selves? What are the metaphysics of horror, and, is it actually correct to continually sanitize the Godhead? All this and more, in today’s episode of SaturnVox
