We were walking downtown New York City when we chanced upon a little bookshop. It was cute and we stepped inside. It felt warm and inviting.

I let my hands do the touching and felt my way through books. Somehow they stopped above this little blue book called The Kybalion. What struck my curiosity was that it had something that looked like my personal symbol on the cover, a triangle with a circle inside. The rest is history for me.

It was written around 1905. There is great debate as to who its authors are, the Three Initiates. Frankly who cares as long as the message is great. What I lied about it is that it is non-inclusive, non-sectarian, non-denominational, it is Universal. The Kybalion states there are seven hermetic principles:

The Principle of Mentalism

The Principle of Correspondence

The Principle of Vibration

The Principle of Polarity

The Principle of Rhythm

The Principle of Cause and Effect

The Principle of Gender

The books has a few famous axioms, such: "As Above, So Below, As Below, So Above"

It's pretty much never left me and was a great re-introduction into hermetic philosophy in this lifetime.

I will have the book posted here shortly.
