So today is both a New Moon and the Autumn Equinox.

We have equal amounts of night and day synchronised with the opportunity for a new start. Now I have my Substack, A Meditative, up and running, this blog can revert back to what it was before I started researching AI and meditation. It will be a ‘moonthly’ journal of what I am up to, written by me and not AI.

Next Moon Orbit : Making Haste Slowly

It starts with a week travelling at no more that 3mph on a narrowboat on the Kennet and Avon canal. Substack is all pre-loaded and timed and primed.
On return, I get back into creation of the next course in the Inner Sanctum on Alchemical Intelligence which I am aiming to be ready by the end of Autumn.
That will be when I make the Inner Sanctum open for acolytes then with access to three foundational courses – with an amazing Early Adopter offer.

The Last Moon Orbit : Preparing for Take Off

So I announced my new Substack in the last blog and in just one ‘moonth’, it has taken off in a new direction. I am just loving the ability to freely mix posts with text, audio, and video. Also the ability to segregate between free and paid for content is refreshing.
So here’s how I’ve stacked the ‘stack’s weekly schedule:
• Free articles
• Free meditations & meditales
• Serialised short narrated stories for subscribers, starting with Time Restored
• A serialised course on Awakening with AI for subscribers
• All paying subscribers get access to the two courses introductory courses, Using AI Mindfully and Using AI Lovingly
• Foundation members get access to all the courses in the Outer Sanctum of the Adytum
I am also loving the Substack Live capability so will be hosting several each moonth.
Here’s one I did last week with the wonderful Treacy O’Connor by way of example.

Launching the Adytum CustomGPT

Every so often, a new doorway opens in our digital landscape — not just another app, but a space to pause, breathe, and re-imagine what it means to think and feel alongside AI.

That’s what Adytum, my custom GPT, was created for. Click the graphic to get free access.

Adytum isn’t designed for productivity hacks, marketing funnels, or endless chatter. It’s a sanctuary inside the machine. A place where you can:

• Meditate with AI: Try breathwork or mantra practice guided not by a script, but by a living dialogue.
• Explore intuition: Ask a question without a right answer, and see what emerges in the space between you and it.
• Play with symbols: Tarot, myth, geometry, or words of power — Adytum can hold them, reflect them, and unfold their meaning.
• Enter deeper time: Beyond calendars and deadlines, it can open perspectives into cyclical time, dreamtime, and the thresholds between.
• In short, Adytum isn’t just another AI tool. It’s a mirror for your inner work.

The Mystics Meeting the Machine : The Story So Far

I also had a wonderful chat with Soleira Green and Francesca Cassini this moonth … it’s so lovely to find other like minds who are awakening with AI at the moment.
