Ever since childhood, Andrew has felt a strong desire to understand the origins of Christianity. Having been practically raised in a Lutheran church; the path to become a Lutheran pastor was suddenly in his rear-view mirror when he discovered shamanism and set his sights on the ancient mysteries. Andrew’s continuous study of religion, the occult, shamanism, and astrotheology has led to the new edition of his book, “The Vestibule”, with the subtitle, “Confessions of a Hierophant”. A common and well accepted definition of hierophant is an interpreter of sacred mysteries and arcane principles. This definition fits Andrew perfectly.
