Russell Von Ohlhausen, Research Astrologer, Lecturer and Writer

Have we lost some of the magic and mystery in our everyday lives due to an overemphasis on Science and materialism? Ironically, Science was created to explore mysteries. Science and spirituality are often pitted against each other as if they are mutually exclusive. Could there in fact be an overlap where each attempts to provide answers to understand ourselves and the Universe around us?

In this episode, our guest is Russell Von Ohlhausen, a transpersonal ontological consciousnesses catalyzer, writer, lecturer, theorist and research astrologer. His work reflects a lifetime of study of science, religions, myths, metaphysics and most importantly – nature – and what they reveal about consciousness and human behavior. Russ is the perfect person to help us explore Where Science Meets Spirituality.

Some of the topics we cover are:

  • How astrology is much more than horoscopes; it’s actually a science.

  • The left and right sides of the brain and how they fit into this equation.

  • Is there a mathematical equation to explain God and existence and are we even meant to know it?

  • How the similarities between the way the body and brain functions and how the zodiacal elements operate point to a cosmological simplex, a divine pattern that repeats throughout all levels of frequency.

  • What determines fate or free will?

  • We even discuss a few movies that demonstrate some of the concepts covered!

Russ is a co-founder of the Astrological Society of Austin in 2005, written and taught with Astrology Hub, and NCGR, and lectured at various esoteric organizations such as IONS (Institute for Noetic Science) & INACS.  His ground-breaking work in cosmological mechanics, and astrological & mathematical research, Celestia Mathematica & The Fibonacci Zodiac, is currently being taught by other astrological schools as a foundational theory of the governing structure behind astrological knowledge and cosmological mechanics. He is also the creator of Zodiac Faces: Planetary Physiognomy and The Holy Myth: The Bible as Astrological Treatise, and the ARC-Database Initiative (Astrological Research Collaborative).
