What's the relation between "truth" and meaning? Can we scientifically verify our visions while tripping? Are psychedelics tools or teachers? Is astrology "real?" Why has "myth" come to mean something that isn't true in recent years, when no one ever claimed that myths were any truer than novels or poems? These and other questions are discussed (but not really answered) in this episode recorded on a bright, chilly Sunday afternoon in Kaş, Turkey.
There are 88 official constellations - 88 keys on a piano - and a seemingly endless number of asterisms. Asterisms are just that, made up constellations. They can be independent of the official constellations though many asterisms borrow stars from several constellations. The most famous asterisms in the northern hemisphere are the Big Dipper and the Little Dipper. In the Southern Hemisphere the southern cross is a well known asterism. I like to joke while looking at stars that I am making up new asterisms. Anyway, I read your comment and thought I’d share what limited info I had on the topic.
On the topic of psychedelics I have much more info. However we will save that for another day:)
I’m very happy that we have found our way over to Substack! So far, I think this platform is a perfect home for tangentially speaking:)
