The Chow Bambini and yeah, welcome to this new episode of Roon Soup, a podcast about magic and anthropology and a whole bunch of other cool stuff.

And this week's guest is Michael O'Fek, and we'll be talking about the shamanic origins of astrology.

And with these kind of in moving into this new live recording world,

I'm doing something a bit different with the introductions which is I'm going to

introduce you Michael and then you're going to correct me with anything that I have

either forgotten or left out or that you think is Germain.

So we shall begin.

Michael is an astrologer, a teacher of astrology, a cosmologist, I got that from the website of the conference we both attended,

and a shamanic practitioner based in Israel has over two decades of experience with magic and astral magic and astral magic and astrology and yeah what

what are I missing what superpowers have you got Michael that I don't know about?

I think you mentioned most of them I think you mentioned most of them. I think maybe the highlight of my expertise you can say is really the research to the to the ancient roots and that's you said

that but maybe I can open that a little bit more well really my my you can say my main interest,

first of all, the axis of what I've been doing for the last two decades

is really trying to explore the the ancient landscape by which

astrology has developed from a philosophical landscape, the ritualistic landscape

that will probably talk about today also.

And that led me also to the magical landscape and other elements that were part of that

But that was kind of that's kind of the thing that I I see

unique expertise. This is the combination with the magical elements of the

the magical elements of the tradition.

Nice.

Nice.
