Astrology and Human Creativity Colliding with AI

Hello! I'm Ryan Hunt, an astrologer, welcome to my blog, where the mystical art of astrology meets the innovative world of artificial intelligence. I’m Ryan Hunt, an astrologer deeply fascinated by the philosophical realms of astrology, shamanism, plant medicine, and the technical intricacies of this ancient practice. This space began as an exploration into AI-generated images that visually interpret astrological transits and has since evolved into a broader discussion encompassing the philosophical and practical aspects of astrology along with personal musings.

Initially, this project focused on creating AI-generated images to represent the astrological weather. I develop prompts that guide the AI to produce images reflecting current astrological configurations. This process involves taking excerpts from my articles and using them to inform the AI, creating visuals that resonate with the themes and energies of the transits discussed. The images are iteratively refined to ensure they not only captivate but accurately embody the celestial influences at play.

Beyond the visual, my blog has grown to include articles on the intersection of astrology with plant medicine and shamanism. These posts explore how these ancient practices interweave with astrological philosophy to enhance our understanding of the universe and ourselves. The technical aspects of astrology also feature prominently, discussing how celestial mechanics and astrological theory can be applied in modern contexts, including my own life.

I am also keen to spark conversations about the ethical use of AI in astrology. It’s vital to consider the limitations and potential biases inherent in AI technologies and how they can affect the authenticity and integrity of astrological interpretations. This dialogue is crucial as we integrate more AI tools into astrological practices, aiming to enhance, not overshadow, the intuitive and human aspects of astrology.

Join me on this journey of AI-discovery and self-discovery as we unlock new ways to connect with the universe's energies through innovative AI applications and the timeless wisdom of astrology. Whether you are an astrology enthusiast, an AI aficionado, or someone curious about how these fields intersect, this blog aims to enlighten, inspire, and provoke thought about the future of human creativity and cosmic exploration.

Listen to Some Mercurial Music with this Trismegistus Playlist

This morning, as I was browsing through some Spotify recommendations, a new artist popped up that I hadn't seen before. The cover of the single that was presented to me was pretty captivating for some reason, and it led me down a rabbit hole exploring this artist's work. One track, in particular, caught my attention, called "Trismegistus." For those of you who have been studying astrology for a while, that name might ring a bell. "Trismegistus" refers to Hermes Trismegistus, the mythological progenitor of astrology, known as 'thrice great' and connected to both Egyptian and Greek mythology. While I won't dive too deep into the historical and mythological intricacies here, let's just say the track struck a chord with me on a deeper, almost cosmic level. Inspired by this discovery, I decided to curate an astrologically themed playlist that embodies the mystical qualities of the universe, wrapped in the enchanting cloak of music. The "Trism...

The Astrology of Hidden Enemies: A Story of the 12th House in Action Astrology has a remarkable way of uncovering the unseen forces that shape our lives, often through the mysterious workings of the 12th house . This house governs hidden enemies, unconscious influences, and unforeseen challenges—things that seem to emerge from the shadows, unbidden and unexplained. Today, I’ll share an artfully woven story of how the 12th house revealed itself during a moment of unexpected conflict. A Passing Encounter The story begins on an ordinary day, in a quiet hallway filled with casual conversations.

It was a peaceful moment, unremarkable in every way—until an unexpected presence disrupted the calm. A stranger appeared suddenly, moving toward the individual without warning. This person, a complete unknown, approached from the side and initiated an unprovoked confrontation. The stranger sh...
