Description

Andrew Watt pops on to talk about astrological cycles; the idea of planets ruling periods of history as it appears in the Arbatel of Magick (Arbatel De Magia Veterum); the time he did magic to win the lottery; and your friend, his friend, and mine, Mercury, patron god of podcasters.

You can learn more about Andrew and what he's up to at https://andrewbwatt.com/ and at https://www.etsy.com/shop/WatermountainStudio?ref=hdr_shop_menu

A PDF of Robert Turner's 1655 translation of the Arbatel is available here: http://www.chaosmatrix.org/library/books/arbatel/arbatel.pdf and Joseph H. Peterson's translation is available on his site here: http://www.esotericarchives.com/solomon/arbatel.htm
