In this chat, we get a little woo.
What is the energetic signature of the money we use every day, and how does that affect our lives? What about the energy of more traditional and/or alternative currencies, like gold, silver, or crypto? Can our current economic woes be partially explained by engaging with the symbology of paper money?
Sarah Thompson (homeopath, writer, EBA member, and medical freedom advocate) joins me to delve into the esoteric side of economy, money, and dystopia.
This was a really fun and interesting discussion for me. Check out the video below!

Hey look, I just figured out how to embed a preview of my book into a Substack post! Cool.
About the goldbacks... I don't see them as being very practical. First, money needs to be practical and convenient to use, not a novelty. Second, money needs to be of uniform value based on material value. The different sizes and the lamination for real world use are limited. Also, we seem stuck on dollar value. Or unit value which has nothing to do with real value. These should go by weight only with gold cloth all the same size, for example. The higher the value, the more gold in the cloth. They would be more durable than laminated goldbacks and represent real value in a convenient to carry way. Of course, you can always use coins, but making coins smaller instead of thinner is an issue with dependability and convenience. Nobody is really thinking outside the box, but seem entranced by novelty rather than usability.
I can insert woo into any topic.
