Although the 18th century is often referred to as the “Age of Reason and Enlightenment” in the history books of western civilization, this is merely an interpretation to avoid the prevalence of mysticism and occult studies by the very same men credited with scientistic philosophies. The resurgence in the ideals of alchemy and Hermeticism were in full bloom in western Europe and their colonies as evidenced by the study of historically important personages from George Washington and Benjamin Franklin to Voltaire and Rosseau and so many more. It is actually a very interesting dichotomy in that some occult philosophies predominant in this time period did actually seek to improve and progress humanity, although their motivations and methods may seem so antiquated as to be incomprehensible to some and questionable, at best, to others. No doubt one of the most interesting, being the most mysterious, was the Comte de St.-Germain.
I’m very pleased to introduce Synkronos23 (http://synkronos23.vox.com/). She’s a truthseeker and researcher of many, if not all, the same topics that you are familiar with - the occult, astrology, ancient civilizations, the origins of religion (astrotheology), magick, secret societies, and conspiracy. Her knowledge of the material, both academic and experiential, is noteworthy. Join us for a discussion of classical occult concepts and their relationship to the modern aeon.
In this episode, we discuss some of her recent articles, including ancient Egyptian Mystery initiation (Setian Consciousness), the pervasive symbolism of Columbia, and mainly, Aleister Crowley and “The Crowley Conspiracy.”
Thanks Synkronos23!
