S2 #07 / Peter Mark Adams on Hagia Sophia / Sanctum of Kronos

Today we welcome back the one and only Peter Mark Adams! In his new book Hagia Sophia / Sanctum of Kronos, he presents a remarkable study of the esoteric beliefs and spiritual traditions contained within the architectural and decorative features of Istanbul’s iconic Hagia Sophia. Hagia Sophia / Sanctum of Kronos tells the story of the building's hidden purpose: to conceal and preserve a sacred mystery in the face of rising Christian tyranny, right under the nose of Constantinople's Christian ascendancy. Represented in the sacred geometry, light, materials, and architecture of this astounding and powerful building, this sacred teaching is revealed by Adams’ in his remarkable thesis. As with Adams’s previous books, this is a meticulously researched, captivating and illuminating piece of work. Punctuated with carefully selected, evocative photography and illustrations, it deconstructs the Hagia Sophia to reveal its esoteric heart. Culturally, the structure acts as a repository for the metaphysical preoccupations of a Hellenistic culture that evolved from the great mystery cults of antiquity to become the metaphysical engine of subsequent European thought. In the Plus show we discussed why Saturn is a focal point of Peter’s research and how the other plays a part in his creative process. We get into his next project in this Saturnian current  and the relationship with providence and fate. We wrap up the show on the subject of energy work and healing and how this is foundational to Peter’s work and indeed his life Show notes: Scarlet Imprint title information   Sanctum of Kronos pre-order petermarkadams.com/ Icons of Sound - Total Sacred Immersion Hagia Sophia Power of the Healing Field Keep in touch? https://linktr.ee/darraghmason Music by Obliqka https://soundcloud.com/obliqka
