/lit/ - Literature

Gentlemen... I have decided. I will learn Greek through Mastronarde, LOGOS and Athenaze for good measure. I will read Plato in the original. Yes, I will write as closely to Thucydides as possible. Indeed, gentlemen, I have learned from my mistakes learning Latin, and I know how to mend them. I'll see you fellas in a few years.

>Many adherents aren't against it
If they are against the idea that religious traditions can't be conflated with another then they don't understand Traditionalism.
>The belief that they all lead to the same place is the very thing that allows for the slippery slide into syncretism to begin with.
The belief that they don't all lead to the same place is the very thing that allows for the slipper slide into rabbinical ethnocentrism and idolatry. The idea that entire cultures of sentient people can collectively be deluded about the Truth and that ones own people possess the only real path to salvation is a neurotic fantasy that always leads to messianism and demon worship. This does not imply syncretism, only that there are many ways to reach one transcendent truth. Mythology is the only reliable teacher we have toward this goal, in its true untampered state preserved through initiation and tradition, because it preserves information that can't be captured in discursive states like language and science and any group of people born out of an authentic relationship with the land is able to cultivate such a tradition.

>Again, how do you know, unless you've done it yourself?
We know alchemists were material scientists because modern chemistry literally inherits most of their techniques and a lot of their discoveries. If alchemy was just spiritual metaphor it is curious how it happens to have a lot of material application. The "can't know unless you did it" argument applies to the spiritual aspect of alchemy, not the material. We know most of mundane alchemy works; the point of contention with it and modern science is transmutation. Overspiritualizing alchemy works into materialist hands, because it is easier to simply deny the spiritual reality than it is to deny the material reality.
The material reality reflects the spiritual reality and vise versa.

if anything, knowing about astrology will get you pussy. women freak out when i talk about their charts. when a friend of mine introduced me to it, i indulged for fun, but as i did more research, the evidence of something real started to emerge.

>I know 2 people who were born the same date as me, but both are extremely different.
clickbait websites, newspapers, and most people who look into astrology completely disregard the time of birth and birthplace. these are extremely important to configuring your chart properly as the cosmos is in constant flux and determining their influences centers on your location, not the location of the earth as a whole.

astro.com and https://horoscopes.astro-seek.com are good places to start if you're interested as well as reddit

good luck on your journey, anon
