POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

A new story unfolds. Khimaira is here. 💋🪼

Introducing the highly anticipated new podcast, hosted by @saturnvox’s very own V.

This show is for those who feel the ache of disconnection—from self, others, and the Earth—as an invitation to walk the slow path of return to Grail-based relations, together.

Each episode offers stories, mythic reflections, and shared grief tending, tenderly woven to fashion a vessel of communal nourishment—water for hearts that still believe in love beyond spectacle.

At Khimaira we believe your voice carries power against the pervasive influence of alienation within the capitalist paradigm of object-based relations.

Are you ready to carry this vessel with us?
The journey begins now.
Follow @khimairapod as we collectively birth a new Aeon.

Come sit in the cave with me.
Explore the full manifesto and share your own story directly via the SaturnVox 🕸️site.

🌒 Your first offering arrives soon.

In this episode of @khimairapod, V speaks with singer, artist, and composer Nika Danilova (@zolajesus) about voice, performance, alienation, discipline, noise, opera, and the unstable process of becoming visible through sound.

Together they move through questions of self-expression as a process shaped by fear, training, contradiction, embodiment, and transformation. The conversation lingers in the tension between control and surrender, refinement and ferality, mediation and raw expression, asking what it means to build a voice capable of carrying an inner life into the world.

Tune in for an episode that approaches the voice as something forged through discipline, exposure, and the ongoing process of becoming audible-the grief and transformation of learning how to inhabit the self through craft, attention, and care over time.

Featuring the song OTKUDA written, produced, and performed by Zola Jesus

Is Love Badness?

An experiment in form: a work of sound composed through field recordings, voice messages, and an essay written from lived experience.

Fragments of speech, ambient noise, and lived memory move together here. Composed from collected sound, the piece turns toward harm, desire, rage, and repair as forces felt in the body. Voices, weather, static, and thought sit beside each other as components of intra-action—where no sound stands alone and each is felt in the body of the listener through its relation to others.

Therefore, this experiment challenges the listener to stay attentive within a post-essay structure, attuning themselves to new possibilities in listening and relation.
This episode asks for patience with overlap and the willingness to stay in discomfort without avoiding it.

Best heard with time, through speakers or headphones, without rushing to a conclusion

A new episode of @khimairapod is here ✨

In today’s conversation, @penkeeper and I speak from inside desire as it moves across fraternity, finance, philosophy, and painting—without attempting to reconcile or redeem the worlds it passes through.

The conversation unfolds through Noah’s experience of hazing as formative conditions of belonging, where masochism functions not as pathology but as a mechanism through which coherence, loyalty, and libidinal circulation are produced.

As these structures are named, art and philosophy enter as parallel economies—fields that carry their own disciplines, devotions, and sacrifices, even as they often refuse to acknowledge the violence implicit in their formation. Drawing on Bataille and Deleuze we attempt to allow theory to act as pressure within the speaking itself, expanding the limits on what kinds of communication are possible across language games and communal worlds.

This episode holds tension as something that acts—allowing incompatible economies of desire to brush up against one another without purification, refusal, or narrative closure.

The most recent episode of Khimaira began the way most transformations do—with a sensation you cant ignore. A trembling in the body. A shift in breath. That moment when feeling overwhelms before it organizes itself into meaning.

@caraclaymore and I met inside that threshold.
We talked about what it means to listen when the body surprises you, when it contradicts you, when it asks you to become someone you don’t yet recognize.

We followed sensation like a clue, letting it lead us through old intensities, neurodivergent overwhelm, and the strange places where power hides in the body.

Nothing in this episode is polished. It’s all raw, confusing, tender kind. The kind where new selves start forming in the dark before you know how to live inside them. The kind where devotion looks like paying attention to the smallest shift of heat or pressure.

If you’re in a beginning of your own transformative unmaking, if something in you is rumbling before it takes shape, this conversation moves in that same foggy, fertile place.

Come listen with us while everything is still unsettled, still becoming 😘 available whenever podcasts may be heard

Good News Everyone 💪 A new episode of @khimairapod is now live!

In today’s episode, @caraclaymore and I begin by asking: How does the body teach us to listen when sensation overwhelms, when it surprises, when it transforms?

Through our conversation Cara shares how past struggles with sensory stimulation and neurodivergence became doorways into practices of embodiment. By attending to sensation in all its intensities, she has learned to inhabit states of power—moving through a variety of selves, performing with and through the body’s shifting voices.

We explore how listening deeply to the body turns discipline and devotion into art, how sensitivity becomes a site of strength, and how embodiment itself opens pathways into metamorphosis.

This episode is a call to action for those navigating the thresholds of sensation, seeking to travel lightly yet powerfully with the many selves the body carries.
———————
Cara is a holy rascal, ecstatic seer, and body nerd who performs many different selves; calling herself an artist, filmmaker, actor and occultist who shares their strength practice, film & storytelling, myth & magick, & ongoing spiritual art quest on the frontier of personal development with those willing to walk beside them.

Jessica Christine of @deerwomen joins V to talk about birthing beauty, feminine prowess, and erotic creativity through the creatrix energy of Babalon

Together we ask: how can beauty nourish without isolating us, and how do we remain open without being overwhelmed?

This is a conversation about learning to feel deeply without flooding, to hold power with humility, and to let creative current move with integrity.

For those seeking to navigate inspiration without fragmentation, this episode opens a doorway into the imaginative womb of creative.

Here, the erotic stays steady, alive, and endlessly renewing for those brave enough to embrace the flames. by @khimairapod
