Episode 1 – Hermes Steals Apollos Herd – Mercury Retrograde – 5.30.15

In this maiden voyage of the StarryTelling Podcast, we hear of Mercury’s first day of life when he stole Apollo’s cows, invented the Lyre, and became the Messenger. We then follow the trails of this starry story to uncover hidden cosmological, astronomical, astrological, and mystical gems woven into its web. Shortly after his birth, Mercury walks Apollo’s cows backwards in their tracks… Mercury Retrograde perhaps? Care to hear a tale?
