This is fantastic. I have watched several shows on Alexandria, the rise of Alexander, Hypatia and much on Egypt where I am going for the first time in January. I am thrilled you are taking us deep into the golden verses. This is a true unfolding of the Golden thread that connects us to Pythagoras and the ancients before him.

I am finding in the second half of my life that I am already in the midst of a deep reevaluation of my values and purpose. This then can become a course in the creation of the new ground that allows for the development of the wings.

Thank you.

Getting the first step together was a challenge, due to the amount we are given here by Hierocles. Take it slowly!

Eager and patient. I had read earlier by the end of October, so I thought I had missed something. Silly me. I've waited decades for this course--I can wait a few more weeks.

I don't know much about Greek philosophy so I'm really looking forward to learning something new.

I love that you mentioned Hypatia, and cannot wait to explore the Golden Verses of Pythagoras that I first hit upon in early days through Manly P. Hall. I saved forever for that book from Geraldine at Atlantis! Hypatia invented the astrolabe, something Robert Grosseteste used to measure the distance between stars much later. I have been enjoying Romaric Jannel's work on Philosophy and especially the Japanese Buddhist philosophers. Thankfully you mentioned the women too, you, of course, being one of them! ****

Their simplicity is deceptive. I do wish that more of Hypatia's work had survived.

Really looking forward to this. Anything that helps us steadily along a sure path is welcome and I’ve long had an interest in Pythagoras!

Sounds wonderful. I’m more attracted to Greek than Celtic wisdom even though I’m a Druid.’

For me, wisdom is wisdom, wherever it is found!

I agree but perhaps, like foods or medicines, some forms will be more or less attractive to different individuals. I like omelette but not boiled eggs. The goodness of the egg is the same; the form is different.

Oh happy day! This is the *perfect* offering for lasting deep wisdom and spiritual understanding and sustenance during these turbulent times of transition. I am very much looking forward to this new course, Caitlin, and may I just say - you are looking absolutely radiant and lovely in the photo above!

I hope everyone will find it a simple but effective way of keeping ourselves in good order, so that the difficulties of daily life can be dealt with and nit overcome us.
