Amidst a wild confluence of interlocking conspiracies, the Temple of Erisian Deities prepare their next home invasion ritual in Boulder CO while a charismatic publisher of esoteric books in Sedona AZ cultivates his new author as the Next Big Thing. At the same time, high in Malibu Canyon CA, the Goddess Guild initiates a lost soul of a man to the Feminine Mysteries. The Akashic Record Player is based on a true story inspired by the author's unexpected seventh circuit activation (ref: Timothy Leary's 8-Circuit Brain model) and his attempt to integrate these mystical experiences with the help of the actual people he met on his journey back from "the center of the earth". This is a story about miraculous interactions, sifted through a mythic, allegorical context. Myth is the very language of life and, through its articulation, we can become more alive.
