The alleged inspiration behind the Egyptian god Thoth and the later Greek god Hermes, Hermetic philosophy appears to be incredibly influential in world religion yet something I had never really heard of. This is where we get the phrase &ldquo;Hermetically sealed&rdquo; from as the process was used in alchemy in attempts to make the philosopher&rsquo;s stone. Enter the Kybalion, a fairly popular book written by the three initiates which puts the hermetic philosophy into a nice, condensed package.</p>
