Unifying Science & Spirit – The 5th, 6th & 7th Hermetic Principles
This blog is the final one in my ‘Unifying Science & Spirit – the Eternal Wisdom of Thoth/Hermes” blog series. In this blog I am considering the remaining 5th, 6th and 7th Hermetic Principles, as set out in the Kybalion, and the recent scientific evidence which I suggest confirms them today, thousands of years later. The 5th Hermetic principle is the “PRINCIPLE OF RHYTHM – Everything flows, out and in. Everything has its tides. All things rise and fall. The pendulum-swing manifests in everything. The measure of the swing to the right is the measure of the...

This week’s blog in this series we look at the 4th Hermetic Principle – The Principle of Polarity which states: “Everything is Dual. Everything has Poles. Everything has its pair of opposites. Like and unlike are the same. Opposites are identical in nature, but different in degree. Extremes meet. All truths are but half-truths. All paradoxes may be reconciled.” This great wisdom reveals the major role Polarity plays in our reality. It is a fundamental element of our Cosmos as later understood by modern Science thousands of years after this Hermetic Principle was first...

In this blog I continue to look at the 7 Hermetic Principles set out in The Kybalion, in terms of recent scientific evidence which I suggest confirms that ancient wisdom. This blog in my ongoing series considers the scientific confirmation of the Third Hermetic Principle from The Kybalion being: “The Principle of Vibration. Nothing rests; Everything moves: Everything vibrates.” Once again, based on earlier oral and written (Hieroglyph) traditions which were carried forward by Egyptian Temple Priests for millennia, the Wisdom of Thoth/Hermes contained in The Kybalion may be over 5,000...

In this next blog in this series I continue to look at the 7 Hermetic Principles as set out in The Kybalion, in terms of recent scientific evidence that I suggest confirms them. This blog considers the growing scientific confirmation of the Second Hermetic Principle from The Kybalion being “The Principle of Correspondence”. This Principle famously states: “As Above, So Below. As Below, So Above.” I think we’ve all heard of this Principle before although perhaps not its source which was of course the ancient writings of Thoth/Hermes. This principle is most often...

Following my previous blog “Hermes Trismegistus (Thrice Great) and the Lost Wisdom of Humanity”, this new series of blogs will explore how leading edge science is now confirming the ‘wisdom of the ancients’. As set out in that last blog, Thoth is the Ancient Egyptian God who the Greeks later equated with their own God Hermes and they then became synonymous to history. Humanity, our species Homo sapiens, has existed for tens of thousands of years in our modern form. Great knowledge and wisdom was accordingly held and conveyed for thousands of years before writing...
Read MoreHermes Trismegistus (Thrice Great) and the Lost Wisdom of Humanity
In this and a number of future blogs, I will be considering how humanity has come to the point we are at today. It is a point that some have called our “evolutionary crossroads” as a species. How did our humankind get so out of balance, so materialistic, and so short-sighted in our thinking that we are now in an accelerated process of destroying ourselves and most of life on Earth? Most of this ongoing process has taken place over the last 2,000 years, and especially over the last few hundred years beginning with “Scientific Revolution” in the 16th Century with its...
