The Horoscope as an Image of the Sky in the Practice of the Hellenistic Astrologers
Просмотров 6214 часов назад
The Horoscope as an Image of the Sky in the Practice of the Hellenistic Astrologers Abstract: Hellenistic astrologers used a board and the planetary stones (for the Sun, the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and the Ascendant) to visualise the elements of the natal chart during the meeting with a client. Evidence of this can be found in the Greek magical papyri (e.g. PGM CX) and in th...
Everything, Everywhere, All at Once by Itziar Azkona

From the old adage As Above So Above So Below and As Inside So Outside, we could go as far as the Oscar for Best Picture in 2023, passing through the Hegelian theory that describes the thesis-antithesis process as the irremediable path to synthesis, inspired by Heraclitus' theory of enantiodromy. From a critical viewpoint, what role does astrology play in this process and at this current moment...
Confessionalisation and the Great Comet of 1618 by Nicholas Campion
Просмотров 26614 дней назад
The sky came alive in the Autumn and Winter of 1618 when three comets appeared in quick succession. In terms of the relationship between the above and the below comets were troublesome things. They could not be predicted and so represented both potential disturbance in the natural order, and unexpected warning signs from God. The last of the three comets in the sky above, and the brightest, was...

I love Bath.
Vaya tuto revoluto se ha marcado el fumado este
Brilliant! Reminds me so much of a video I made years ago that was inspired by Michael Talbot. So relieved to see his idea of the holographic universe lives on. Looking forward to more profound insights from Mr. Andersson. ruclips.net/video/OiBkWJd_BFs/видео.html
Absolute gold! Never before seen such a clear wholistic explanation of the state of the world with such extensive reference and clear arguments It is completely true that the apocalypse must be repeatedly enacted for it to keep occuring
23:50: so "indigenous settings" and pre-christianity Europe had an ecological worldview; so what happened? why did they suddenly not need that ecological worldview. A scientific understanding of anthropological changes is missing here. Maybe we should stop using the word "indigenous" which is not helpful. What is the opposite of indigenous? "in contact with the rest of the world" ? "non-State" ? Pierre Clastres, David Graeber, and Daniel from "What is Politics?"
“Self will of the system” - 🙌🏼🥰
academia ain't what it was. This area is finely served by the layman.
The explanations aren't merely reductive, they're pathologizing as well.
This was surprisingly interesting! Good work, good talk, good thinking.
Excellent thank you
Knowledge
Ernest Haeckel? "From Haeckel to Hitler: The Anatomy of a Controversy" by Daniel Gasman is required reading on Haeckel
Thanks Dr. Jack!
Homies got the knowledge!!
Why do we have to run out of resources if we begin instead to understand the laws of REGENERATION?!! I have just discovered Bernadette's work...really interesting. I wish I had learned this when younger. I am really enjoying Mythology and the Archetypes and learning about people like Mircea Eliade; Plato et al... It opens up so much for me to consider., esp., during this current Mercury Retrograde as I write this (ie: June 2021)!!!
Great talk, Patrick. Loved your latest book on enchantment - would highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't read it.
great work. Hope not in poor taste to say you have nailed it. Strangely now in the sky the same configuration in many ways, Jupiter and Saturn conjunct setting with the Sun and Venus rising before Sun. Thankyou.
Thank you for your time and this wonderful presentation
