The Cosmic Codex
Welcome to The Cosmic Codex—a transmission from the edge of becoming.
Hosted by philosopher and Ph.D. candidate Arabella Thais, this podcast traces the golden threads that weave cosmos, mythos, and psyche into a unified vision of reality. Through visionary dialogues and solo scholarly riffs, Arabella excavates the deeper structures of existence—drawing from philosophy, cosmology, depth psychology, mathematics, poetics, and the occult.
This is a philosophy podcast for a new epoch, one that dares to ask how meaning, beauty, and consciousness are encoded into the fabric of the universe. Each episode contributes to a larger arc—unfolding themes such as retro-causality, anarchy, the Eternal Feminine, symbolic mathematics, and the aesthetics of time—as part of an urgent project: to reimagine the real and awaken a cosmology of wholeness.
The Cosmic Codex is not merely a podcast.
It is a living manuscript. A metaphysical map.
A call to remember what you came here to know.

ARCHIVE #02 — The Alchemy of Consciousness with Avery Hopkins
In this luminous dialogue, I’m joined by world-renowned alchemist Avery Hopkins to explore the sacred science of alchemy—its cultural genesis, spiritual essence, and contemporary practice. We trace alchemy not merely as a symbolic system but as a living, breathing praxis that cannot be divorced from consciousness itself. Avery speaks with clarity and depth about the transmission of knowledge from the cosmic mind, and how the true alchemist becomes both vessel and mirror for transmutation.
We traverse the spiralic paradoxes of truth through the lens of T.S. Eliot's Four Quartets, where time, silence, and becoming intersect in the crucible of the soul. This conversation is a synthesis of the mystical and the material, where high metaphysics meets the heat of the laboratory.
What makes this encounter especially rare is that Avery is not just a theorist—he is a practicing alchemist, working with metals, oils, and planetary essences to facilitate deep human transformation. When we met in New York, I had the privilege of trying his Oil of Copper—an experience that was nothing short of revelatory.
This is an episode for those who feel the call of the Great Work. Intellectually stimulating, spiritually expansive, and grounded in praxis.
This episode was originally released under the podcast title Sacred Wisdom, the precursor to The Cosmic Codex. It now resides within The Sacred Wisdom Archives.
