In this first episode of Drinking in the Duat, we take a deep dive into the myths and mysteries of the afterlife as envisioned by ancient cultures. Starting with the Greek underworld ruled by Hades, we explore the structure of this shadowy realm, from the peaceful Elysium to the torment of Tartarus. Next, we journey through the Egyptian Duat, a labyrinth of trials, where the soul's heart is weighed against the feather of Ma’at. Along the way, we compare these fascinating beliefs with other afterlife myths, including the Norse Hel, Aztec Mictlan, and Hindu reincarnation cycles.
Discover the universal themes of morality, judgment, and transformation that connect these stories and reflect humanity’s eternal quest to understand life, death, and what lies beyond. Whether you’re here for the gods, the ghosts, or the myths themselves, this episode offers a spirited exploration of the worlds beyond.
