Reflection, Relationship & ReciprocityBlack Mirrors, Living Symbols & the Ways We Shape One Another In This Episode What begins with hag stones, black mirrors, and the ancient practice of scrying gradually opens into something far less expected. As Jennifer Taylor and Tava Baird follow the threads of folklore, history, and lived spiritual experience, familiar ideas begin to shift, inviting us to look beyond appearances toward the relationships that quietly shape our lives. Along the way, symbols emerge, old stories are revisited, and simple questions reveal surprising depth. Rather than offering conclusions, this conversation lingers in exploration. Reflections on sacred geometry, direct spiritual experience, and some of humanity's oldest stories invite us to remain curious, to practice discernment, and to discover what becomes possible when we approach both the seen and unseen worlds with openness, reverence, and a willingness to keep listening.
