“As above, so below, as within, so without, as the universe, so the soul…”
"The All is mind; The Universe is Mental."
"Nothing rests; Everything moves; Everything vibrates."
Are some of the most profound sentences in the whole of human history.
Hermeticism is one of the key traditions of Western Esoteric Sciences, along with Jewish
Kaballah and Gnosticism.
From the Medieval alchemy and occult science of the Islamic Golden Age to the development of
science in the Renaissance and the Age of Enlightenment, up to our modern era, Hermeticism
has always lurked behind the scenes, as one of the driving philosophies behind great
intellectual breakthroughs.
Hermeticism has always played an integral role in the history of human understanding of the
nature of being.
But before we delve into the key Hermetic teachings and their insights into the nature of being,
let’s first get to know a little bit about Hermes Trismegistus, also known as Hermes the Trice
Greatest.
The ancient Arabic encyclopedia, known as Kitāb al-ʿilal or The Book of Causes, holds the
oldest known version of the Tablet. The text has allegedly survived from the Hellenistic period to
the Islamic Golden Age.
Hugo of Santalla introduced the Tablet to the West with his translation of the text from Arabic to
Latin in the Twelfth Century CE, inspiring alchemists, artists, mystics, and scholars till this day.
Anyway, enough about history. There are hundreds of sources that go in-depth. We don’t need
to do that here.
Let’s delve into what we’re here to introduce, the 7 Hermetic principles.
We advise you to read the Kybalion by the Three Initiates, which is an essential Hermetic
introductory text for a novice.
