This is a true dialogue between students of antiquity and occult literature. Just great content overall and rare to see presented with such academic perspective that’s detached and truly objective in nature.

Looking forward to a wonderful hour! Dr Kotyk’s dissertation blew my mind when I read it this is such a good reminder to revisit it

[@TheModernHermeticist]

Hope you enjoy it!

A wonderful academic/scholarly presentation. My Hermetic question to ponder: What is going to happen to our Astrology and Magic when humanity reaches other stars and planetary systems? Is it going to need to be redefined since all stellar references and charts will change? The proper application of Hermetic principles with modern technology will soon lead us to the stars. As above, so below and far beyond. AsteroxRising

I somewhat resonate with the Buddhist approach to astrology. As a Christian who was just interested in the study and interpretation of it all it seems almost useless to study. In the sense that the amount of opinions on what is true astrology is is mind boggling. Dozens of working systems with different schemes to account for events. It's the oldest science in the world and so it's reasonable to think it'd be so diverse. It's just... Overwhelming. I'm sure it's true in some sense(something so old has to have something to it) I'd prefer to stick to virtue instead of trying to figure what the stars are trying to communicate.

[@TheModernHermeticist]

Virtue will always get you further than knowledge of the stars.

Academic study of religions loves joking about brill prices!

[@calinmuresan91]

This is the truth my friend. Know it. Hermeticism is the ultimate truth!
