Symbology 101: The Sacred Cow As The Mother Of Mythology


Listen Later

Welcome to the first installment of Symbology 101, a series into which I dive deep into the symbols that create cultures and expand ideas.


For this first installment, I dive deep into the sacred cow (and bull) and its importance within Indo-European civilization and how it has shaped our cultures, religions, and philosophies for millenia as the mother of all mythology. I dive into various aspects of the sacred cow in Hindu, Greek, Roman, Celtic and Germanic cultures, before heading to Persia to establish the symbolic link between astro-theology, history, and the influence of the Zoroastrian religion as we begin to dive into it over the next few episodes.
