Gordon White - Star.Ships: A Prehistory of the Spirits

On Thursday May 12th, 2016 the Hermetic Hour with host Poke Runyon will present an interview with British author Gordon White featuring his book "Star.Ships, a Prehistory of the Spirits." Gordon is a journalist, a magician, a scuba diver and a scholar of prehistoric archaeology. He and host Poke Runyon have both explored the lost city of Nan Madol above ground and underwater at different times. In the book Star.Ships Gordon focuses on the accumulating evidence of lost, sunken, and buried ruins from the antediluvian (Ice Age) period such as Gobekli Tepe and others along with genetic evidence of the migrations of early man to develop a remarkable thesis regarding our astrological mythology.  He proposes that the spirits of the stars, the zodiac, are antediluvian and that the rise of planetary gods and spirits are post diluvian -- with the end of the Ice Age (15 to 12,000 years ago) being the demarcation point. He will concede some extraterrestrial contact (Temple's Sirius Mystery) but prefers inter dimensional spiritual realms more in line with Jacques Valle and Carl Jung as the source of alien contact. Poke Runyon agrees with Gordon White on almost all of his points and heartily recommends Gordon's book. So if you want meet Gordon and spend an hour with us exploring this fascinating subject, tune in and we'll learn about the prehistory of the Spirits. Special thanks to Frater Isa for arranging this great show.
