The Reality of Being Human with Maevius Lynn

The Purple Pawedcast · 2025-06-13

Today's episode is a special Pride Month offering featuring Queer Thelemite Maevius Lynn. Lynn is an esoteric author, content creator, and advocate of the new religious movement, Thelema. We discuss topics as far afield as Aleister Crowley, how Thelema soothes religious trauma, and why screwing your neighbor isn't the same as Sex Magick.

The Purple Pawedcast

Welcome to The Purple Pawedcast, where we unpack the complexities of gender, identity, and what it truly means to be human—without the academic jargon (okay, maybe just a little, but only the fun kind).

Curated by Amethysta Herrick. Ph.D., this pod is where science, philosophy, and lived experience collide to challenge assumptions and spark new perspectives. Whether you’re here to explore your own identity, stay informed on the latest research, or just enjoy a deep dive into the human experience, we deliver thoughtful, engaging, and refreshingly honest discussions. No fluff. No gatekeeping. Just real conversations about who we are and how we navigate the world. Dive in, stay curious, and let’s rethink identity together.
