Episode 3 - The Marriage Of Heaven And Earth - Astrotheology - 6.24.15

StarryTelling Podcast

Trickster StarryTeller Gemini Brett and Medicine Bardess Marya Stark focus AstroMythological Mysteries of ancient Egypt and following ages through a lens of modern storytelling and original music to shine a light on cosmological and mystical gems woven into the web of these old starry stories. Recorded live under a Santa Cruz Oak on 6/24/2015 as Messenger Mercury reached maximum morning elongation at 11 Gemini and Mars ingressed into Cancer (a note that Marya and Brett share in the songs of their celestial fingerprints). Brett here... I am so entirely honored to have been graced by Marya's participation in this podcast. She is a cosmic collaborator of endless inspiration and I look forward to having her back on the show again as a musical contributor, but also as a guest to interview. Marya took the challenge to write original songs for this episode and created "The Marriage of Heaven and Earth" and "Sunrise, Sunset, Sunrise" in less than three days time... Amazing! The lyrics for each song are below. You can find oodles of original songs, thoughts, videos, and more at Marya's website: MaryaStarkMusic.com. And you can find more of my work at MoreThanAstrology.com. Thank you for tuning in.
