Where do you go for protection when life gets hard?

In this episode of Chats with Aunt Jacki, I sit down with Cairelle Perilloux, author of The Magic in Your Genes and the upcoming Motherline Grimoire, to talk about ancestor magic, the maternal line, inherited survival patterns, and the deep protection carried through generations of women.

This conversation is about power, lineage, boundaries, and remembering that you are not starting from zero.

When something goes wrong, when you feel scared, depleted, threatened, or unsure, where do you go for protection?

A spell?
A crystal?
Your anger?
A trusted friend?
Your own stubborn refusal to fold?

In this episode of Chats with Aunt Jacki, I’m joined by Cairelle Perilloux, author of The Magic in Your Genes and the upcoming Motherline Grimoire, for a powerful conversation about protection, power, and the ancestral strength carried through the maternal line.

Cairelle is a genealogist, integrative RN, and magical practitioner whose work brings together ancestry, DNA, science, magic, and deep spiritual relationship. Together, we talk about the motherline, the women who came before us, and the patterns we inherit, both the ones that protect us and the ones we are here to interrupt.

We explore how women have survived through silence, back-channel communication, intuition, endurance, adaptation, and fierce quiet strength. We also talk about what changes when protection stops being automatic fear and becomes conscious choice.

This conversation moves through boundaries, inherited compliance, medical advocacy, ancestor altars, mitochondrial DNA, the power of naming your mothers, and what it means to walk through the world aware, but unafraid.

Because you are not starting from zero.

Your mothers are behind you.
Your grandmothers are behind you.
Your lineage has already survived more than you can imagine. And maybe the protection you’ve been looking for has been in your bones all along.

In this episode of the 222 Paranormal Podcast, we sit down with Casey Schnese, founder of the Eastern Wisconsin Paranormal Team, to talk about the world of paranormal investigation, the experiences that drive people to search for answers, and what it's really like to investigate places where the unexplained may be happening.

Casey has been investigating the paranormal and leading the Eastern Wisconsin Paranormal Team for nearly seven years. Over that time, the team has had the opportunity to investigate more than 20 businesses and four private homes, each location bringing its own history, atmosphere, and potential mysteries. With a team of approximately eight members, Casey and the group approach their investigations with curiosity, teamwork, and an open mind.

Paranormal investigation is about much more than simply walking into a supposedly haunted location with cameras and equipment. Every investigation begins with questions. What happened at the location? Who lived or worked there? Is there a history of unusual activity? Are there stories that have been passed down through generations? And perhaps most importantly, can the experiences reported by witnesses be documented and investigated in a responsible way?

During our conversation, Casey shares insight into what it takes to investigate paranormal claims and what investigators may encounter when they enter a location with a reputation for being haunted. From unexplained sounds and strange feelings to possible spirit activity and personal experiences, every investigation can bring something different.

We also explore the importance of working as a team. Paranormal investigations can be challenging, especially when investigators are dealing with darkness, unfamiliar environments, and situations that may be difficult to explain. Having a group of investigators allows experiences to be compared, evidence to be reviewed, and observations to be discussed from different perspectives.

One of the most fascinating aspects of paranormal investigation is the unknown. While some experiences may eventually have a logical explanation, others can leave investigators with more questions than answers. For people like Casey, that uncertainty is part of what makes the field so interesting. The goal isn't necessarily to prove every experience is paranormal, but to investigate, document, and consider all possibilities.

 

"Many do not believe and will do all they can to destroy ghost hunting. Some do this for religious reason, others just to debunk beliefs they cannot understand."

Tonight’s story is The Travelling Grave — one of the strangest and most unsettling tales ever written by L. P. Hartley. What begins as a seemingly civilized weekend gathering at an English country house gradually descends into something deeply macabre, as a group of guests discover that their eccentric host possesses a disturbing fascination with antique coffins… and a newly acquired creation known only as The Travelling Grave. Blending dark humor, psychological unease, and understated horror, Hartley constructs a tale in which polite conversation and deadly intent coexist beneath the surface of English gentility. A classic example of restrained British supernatural fiction, this story remains as unnerving today as when it was first published.

On this episode of Weird Darkness, host Darren Marlar follows a flying machine that may never have flown, a cat credited with surviving three warships in a single year, a silver cylinder buried under a haunted Oklahoma mound, and a cylindrical object that tore into a Bolivian mountain in broad daylight.It opens in Worcester, Massachusetts, in December of 1909, where Wallace E. Tillinghast, vice-president of the Sure Seal Manufacturing Company, told the Boston Herald he had invented a heavier-than-air flying machine that could carry three passengers some three hundred miles at a hundred and twenty miles an hour, only a few years after the Wright brothers had struggled to keep a powered aircraft aloft for a few hundred feet. Wallace never produced the machine, yet crowds across Massachusetts and out into Arkansas, New York, Connecticut, and Rhode Island reported a mysterious airship moving silently through the night sky, with one witness in Revere describing seventy-foot wings and an engine he claimed he could hear rumbling from the ground. In Providence, a young H.P. Lovecraft cut through the excitement by identifying the light everyone was pointing at as the planet Venus. The New England Skeptical Society would later attribute the whole affair to collective wish-fulfillment, while the UFOlogist John A. Keel traced it back to an unnamed inventor who had been working his way east since the great California airship sightings of 1896, recruiting well-liked local men like Wallace to serve as the public face of a flying machine that never quite worked.From there the show crosses to the North Atlantic and the tale of Unsinkable Sam, a black-and-white tuxedo cat said to have survived three shipwrecks during a single stretch of the Second World War. As the legend runs, he began the war aboard the German battleship Bismarck, was pulled from a floating plank by the crew of the British destroyer HMSCossack after the Bismarck went down on May 27th, 1941, and was renamed Oscar. When the Cossack was torpedoed months later, the cat was said to have been rescued again, this time by the aircraft carrier HMS Ark Royal, which is where the nickname Unsinkable Sam took hold; after the Ark Royal itself was torpedoed on November 14th, 1941, he reportedly turned up unharmed once more and was carried off by the HMS Legion. Darren measures the story against the record, noting that Bismarck survivors recalled no cat aboard, that a well-known photograph tied to Sam actually shows a different ship's cat named Simon of the HMS Amethyst, and that the seagoing cat was a genuine naval tradition even if this particular survivor may have been assembled from several.Next comes a haunted mound outside Binger, in Caddo County, Oklahoma, and a silver cylinder said to hold the reason the local people would not go near it. The account reaches print through a 1930s newspaper clipping rediscovered by Mrs. Cossette Willoughby of San Jose, California, in which a traveling reporter digs at dawn beside a mound her friends Pat and Louis warned was watched by two phantoms, a woman by day and a headless man by night. Inside the cylinder are papers written in Castilian Spanish, describing how a soldier named Alfonzo, separated from Francisco Vázquez de Coronado's 1541 hunt for the Seven Cities of Gold, wandered into a cave and down into a hidden underground country called Kenyan, ruled by long-headed people and guarded by hairless, dog-like beasts that gave off a musty animal odor. Drawing on Timothy Green Beckley's book Subterranean Worlds Inside Earth, the segment lays out Alfonzo's account of his wife Teen, their failed escape on the back of one of those beasts, and the sentence that supposedly set their preserved bodies walking the mound to frighten off anyone who might find the passage.The episode closes on the afternoon of May 6th, 1978, when something cylindrical slammed into the El Taire mountain along the Bermejo River, on the border between the Bolivian province of Tarija and Argentina, with a supersonic blast heard 150 miles away and windowpanes cracked 30 miles out in every direction. Border policemen described a metallic object trailing white smoke; Corporal Natalio Farfan Ruiz felt the ground tremble as it fell, and Policeman Juan Hurtado said the thing passed directly over his head before it struck the slope. The Buenos Aires newspaper Clarín reported that a police chief in Tarija had located a dented metal cylinder roughly twelve feet long, and while a promised NASA expert never arrived, two United States Air Force officers, Colonel Robert Simmons and Major John Heise, did, later confirmed through released State Department documents to have flown in under a program called Project Moon Dust. Darren ends on the stranger thread running through those files, the 1127th field activities group's interest in HUMINT, the gathering of UFO information from human sources through what the documents themselves describe as a game of deceit.
