Episode 39: The Symbol of Macro & Microcosm

"As above so below, as within so without," is one of the most famous maxims of the occult world, a phrase shared and repeated by those who explore the wonders of the mythic and the magical, the symbolic and the unknown. This phrase comes to us from the Emerald Tablet, a Hellenistic text by Hermes Trismegistus. The meaning, though sounding like a riddle, is that what happens in the greater cosmos impacts and is a reflection of what occurs on the mundane, human realm, and that our experiences and potentials as human beings are a reflection of the cosmos. This episode explores the symbolic concept of the macrocosm and microcosm, our innate connection to the divine, and our place in the fabric of life. We define and give historical context from the macro/microcosms, and then turn to an exploration of how it is the sacred thread running through our tarot and astrology practices.
