Hermeticism

Hermeticism is a philosophical tradition that was started based on Hermes Trismegistus i.e. Thoth. If you do a search or find books on the Emerald Tablet of Hermes this tablet gives you a lot more information on who he is. Hermeticism is linked to Alchemy and if I am not mistaken also linked to secret societies such as Freemasonry, Hermetic Order of The Golden Dawn,  AMORC (Rosicrucians) etc. etc. These secrets orders strongly use Hermeticism but also use what they need to in order to teach new initiates.

Hermeticism is a path/journey into spiritual growth. At one point Hermeticism had been completely banished. This was due to Christianity being considered the main religion of the Roman Empire. Books with Hermetic writings were in fact preserved during the Middle Ages. These books were few in number. Besides Christianity has more Paganism in it than most people of the Christian religion would think. This practice views humanity being on this spiritual journey in accordance to returning into a state of unity with the Divine. Humans are able to access the Subtle Realms by different techniques  by meditation, ritual, including varying spiritual or magical practices. Although many do not wish to pursue anything evolving around this. Growing spiritually I see as being very important. I intend to grow spiritually, because I need a massive change for myself. Many other people need to take advantage of this opportunity as well.

Hermetics (those who practice Hermeticism) are those who seek divine truth, seekers of understanding, and the seekers of Gnosis. They are very open including being tolerant of other peoples spiritual paths/beliefs. Anybody is welcomed into Hermeticism if they see it is the right path for them. Hermeticism I see as being ever so loving to those seeking  the truth.The truth is pretty difficult to find these days. I am lucky enough to find what I can, especially before I accepted the unknown for what it was. Never be afraid of something you do not know anything about. It keeps you from spreading your wings to new heights.

There is a lot more on Hermeticism if you feel the need to look into this more like I have.
