#26 | Brian Clark | Ode to Hermes/Mercury

Brian Clark joins the podcast again, this time to talk all things Hermes/Mercury. In the sky at the moment Mercury is in its home of Gemini whilst the Sun has made its way into the early degrees of Cancer.

As such, Hermes leads us into a discussion of  his links to the sign of Cancer and his connection to Hestia - the first born of Chronus and the Goddess of the Hearth. We ponder what the wheel of the Zodiac would look like if, like in ancient times, Cancer was in fact the first sign.

We also dive into the image of the Bee Oracle, Mercury as the god of the crossroads, Hermes the 'hypnagogue' who takes us in and out of sleep, the importance of dreams and sleep in a healthy Pscyhe, Mercury's position as the hinge in between worlds, and so much more.

It truly was a delight to reconnect with Brian - a mentor in the deepest sense of the word.
