ABOUT THIS EPISODE
For the uninitiated, Dr. Ali A Olomi is an astrologer, magician, and history professor who has cultivated a devoted following. His unique insights into medieval Islamic occult and esoteric thought have profoundly shaped the current discourse on astrological history and practice.
This past August he joined me at the Los Angeles Astro Salon for a conversation on World Astrology.
Special thanks to the Philosophical Research Society for hosting and to our three guest panelists: Liz Vazquez, Stefanie Marlow and Sydney Baloue.
