Interview With Gwilda Wiyaka and the Science of Magic

Written By Thomas Moore

On February 28, 2017 I had a recorded conversation with Gwilda Wiyaka on the Science of Magic Radio Show. Gwilda has a long background in shamanic arts and, according to her website, wants to reconcile science and magic. I’m particularly interested in this because I wrote my dissertation on European Renaissance magic and have been studying various forms of magic for many years. I see it as the proper activity of the soul. The natural magic I have studied looks for ways to have powerful creative impact in the world through non-rational forms of power.
