Island Consciousness | S7 Ep6

OUR STORY

The shoreline is a threshold. When we stand at the place where the ocean meets the land, we know we’re standing in between the worlds.

In this preview of S7 Ep6, Marisa tells the story of King Canute, the Anglo-Danish king whose famous confrontation with the tide has been misread for centuries. His real message–about faith and hubris and our relationship to the power of the elements–turns out to be more urgent now than it ever was.

But the Canute story is just the doorway. The full Turas episode is a guided journey along the shorelines of the imagination and your own beloved countries. We explore the art of arrival and the power of liminality, and question what it means to truly inhabit a place rather than just pass through it.

The extended episode includes three writing prompts which invite you to explore your own history of arrivals, and your relationship with change and erosion.

This is the work that happens at Myth Workers' Hearth. Every Turas episode is built for the listener who wants to go deeper — into the myth, into the land, and into their own story.
