Celestial Voyages YouTube Channel

I've been listening to the "Celestial Voyages" YouTube channel lately, which is an astro-mythology/astrology channel. The channel's proprietress has deep knowledge on the subject. I've dabbled in it for the past several years, but am a rank amateur.

The celestial mythology symbolism and terminology is everywhere in our culture today, and has been for thousands of years. The Game of Thrones, for example, is some version of that mythology. If you're not clued into the symbolism and terminology, the videos probably won't provide much useful information. After multiple years of studying this stuff, I can grasp some of the concepts, but miss many of the details.

The general idea is that the universe is not what it appears, and certainly is not strictly material. We're plugged into a system, basically, that has a manifestation in us, and in the stars, planets, sun and moon. The system doesn't operate on language--it operates on something else. It's more symbolic and poetic and prosaic, and in fact symbols, e.g. the symbols of astrology, are a better representation of the language of the universe and they speak directly to our unconscious mind. The planets and the sun and the moon are not just rocks and gas, they're alive and conscious and are components of this system.
