Love this ❤

Thanks for watching

Im pretty consumed with the idea that Neptune and its dance among the other outer planetary influences (generational astrology) is how we get art and pop culture- but Neptune being the spiritual communication red thread. The literal translation of inspiration being "to breath life into". Anyway, fascinating talk. Cool to hear other people placing significance on a subject Im more than interested in... obsessed truly.

22:22 It is a Fall. Matter is the problem. Also, April DeConick said the gnostics informed the Catholics the Jews and the pagans: "Your gods are demons", so, so much for working side by side.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Certainly agree- although I think my argument was more "written polemics and idealized audiences don't necessarily reflect everyday reality".
