David Pantano, an esteemed scholar and author, shares insights from his book 'Alchemical Hermeticism The Secret Teachings of Marco Daffi on Initiation' exploring themes such as alchemical practices, Divination, Mantics, Eastern Mysticism as critiqued by Daffi, astral experiences, and the ever-intriguing Italic hermetic tradition. Listeners will gain a deeper understanding of Daffi's philosophical journey, his interactions with other notable alchemical figures, and the profound conclusions made in Daffi's work. The conversation spans various topics, including the intersection of psychology and alchemy, the significance of the golden bough, and the mystical symbol of the Siren. Pantano also addresses the role of Eastern practices like the I Ching in Daffi's work and their impact on contemporary esotericism. This episode offers a comprehensive glimpse into the underexplored dimensions of Western occultism.
