The Superhumanize Podcast Gahl Sasson On The Founding Origins of Astrology, The Upcoming "Astrological Traffic Jam" And Opportunities Of 2023, The Power Of Our Names, and Much More
"As above, so below."
This paraphrase of the second verse of the Emerald Tablet describes the idea that what happens in a higher realm or plane of existence also happens in a lower realm. Since the dawn of time, humankind has looked to the higher realms of the stars for guidance, whether for navigation of our oceans and planet, or via astrology for the navigation of our destinies.
Astrology dates back to the 2nd millennium BC, when the Babylonians developed the first organised system of interpretation of the celestial bodies and their influence on human affairs. Until the 17th century, astrology was actually considered a scholarly tradition. Famous people of science and scholars such Galileo Galilei, Isaac Newton and Carl Gustav Jung used astrology to guide their lives and work.
Do the answers lie in the stars? Today we are welcoming a man on the show who says, yes, they do.
