STAR: An Orphic Initiation is OPEN FOR REGISTRATION!
Join the next cohort of our class that offers a 5-month deep dive into the Orphic hymns
Join me and co-teacher Drew Levanti in the next cohort of our class STAR: An Orphic Initiation!
We go DEEP in this five-month exploration of some of the key hymns in the Orphic collection, using art, music, astronomical and astrological visuals, and LOTS of philosophical and cultural context to get at the hidden esoteric meaning behind the original Greek of the hymns.
And in doing that, we reveal the mystical animist roots of”Western” astrology and magic. (“Western” in quotes because we’re really talking about a tradition that spans the entire Mediterranean basin, with profound repercussions for all subsequent astrological traditions—from Greek to Christian to Islamicate and even Vedic traditions.)
Here’s what you get
20 hours of pre-recorded lectures you can listen to at your own pace
twice-monthly live Q&A with me and Drew
opportunities to “share in” artwork and experiences you’ve had with the hymns
downloadable resources, including hymn translations
a community of fellow-devotees (new and alumni from our first cohort) interested in re-birthing this ancient Mystery tradition!
The Hymns We’ll Cover
Adonis, Apollo, Ares/Mars, Chthonic Hermes, Dionysos, the Daimon, Eros, Helios/Sun, Hephaistos, Kronos/Saturn, Persephone, Rhea, Selene/Moon, the Stars/Planets, Thanatos/Death
I’m so excited to bring this ancient tradition to you in such an intimate and in-depth way!
All the details and pricing are laid out on our registration page, so if you’ve read this far, you should head on over and sign up!
Yours in Earth and Starry Sky,
Kristin
