The Dance of Earth and Mercury

Mercury, winged-sandalled messenger god, mediator between heaven and earth, and patron of the alchemical arts, healers, practitioners of sacred number, geometry and cosmology! 

Smallest and swiftest of heavenly wanderers, Mercury’s merry dance is a wonder to behold; where the patterns of Earth and Venus often resound in beautiful fivefold (phi) form, Earth and Mercury appear to manifest many threefold patterns and pi ratios. The legendary Hermes Trismegistus (Thrice-greatest Hermes), reputed author of the Corpus Hermetica, is akin to Mercurius.

Each and every one of us has been thrice-blessed by Hermes Trismegistus whilst in our mother’s womb (nine mo{o}nths equates to three turns of Mercury around the sun!!!).

Through two-days of contemplative pattern exploration at SAOG Studios, we hope to begin a journey of re-membrance and friendship with our most esteemed of fleet-footed heavenly neighbours …
