How to Know the Stars with Star Lore Historian Mary Stewart Adams

Session IV

History of Star Knowledge from Astrology to Astronomy to the New Star Wisdom Astrosophy

From the civilization-forming influence of the stars evidenced in ancient cultures, to the dramatic shift in humanity’s relationship to the celestial world dating from the scientific revolution in the 16th century, we arrive in contemporary culture, where light pollution diminishes views of the sky for most of the world’s population.  In this session, we will consider the role of star lore in cultivating an appreciation for cultural diversity, and learn about the consequences in human culture, and for the Earth, of being cut off from the stars. Register here. Program will be recorded; register for one session ($35) or all four ($125)
