Every once in a while, life knocks you flat and leaves you searching for meaning. For me, that moment came during my back injury recovery. Restless and curious, I stumbled across something unexpected: Hermetic Philosophy.

At first, it felt obscure — ancient texts, strange symbols, mysterious sayings like “As above, so below.” But the deeper I read, the more I realized these teachings weren’t dusty relics. They were living ideas about the mind, the universe, and the hidden patterns that connect everything.

That exploration led me to create something new: seven short stories, each inspired by one of the Seven Hermetic Principles (Mentalism, Correspondence, Vibration, Polarity, Rhythm, Cause & Effect, and Gender). Instead of explaining them through dry philosophy, I wanted to bring them to life — through characters, trails, rivers, and moments you can step into.

This series isn’t about memorizing doctrines. It’s about feeling the principles in story form, so they breathe in the imagination the way they’ve breathed through centuries of seekers.

Over the coming days, I’ll share each story here. You can also find them collected in the Hermetic Philosophy section in the blog menu.

If you’ve ever wondered how ancient wisdom might still whisper into modern life — or if you’re simply curious about a different kind of storytelling — I invite you to walk this path with me.

Because sometimes the oldest truths aren’t meant to be studied — they’re meant to be experienced.
