Creativity: Invoking the Muse

Send us comments, suggestions and ideas here! In this week’s episode we invoke the Muses to discuss their origin and how we might find ourselves on the receiving end of their blessings. We ask Hesiod and Diodores what they know about the Mousai and explore how their description lines up with the Qabalistic Tree of Life. We also discuss the role creativity plays in science, music and even how to overcome writer's block. In the extended show we discuss the Hindu Sarasvati, even more Qabalah, The Alchemical workings of the Art or Temperance card of the Tarot, love, Confucianism and if creation is even possible or if it's all just a remix?
