I have spent several years working on a book about the Hermetic Kabbalah. I am very pleased to say it is now available through Amazon in the USA and in the EU. It is a large book of 464 pages and over 60 illustrations, and not only covers many aspects of traditional Jewish Kabbalah in…

Hermetic Kabbalah – the book
I haven’t updated the site for some time because I have been working hard on completing the book I have been working on for the past eight years. I now have my proof copies (see picture), I’ve read through the proof, and it is nearly good-to-go. The blurb currently reads as follows: “Before there was…

The Secret Books of the Egyptian Gnostics

Celine et Julie vont en bateau
Seriousness is two-edged. On one hand we want promises to be kept, deadlines adhered to, guarantees to be meaningful, and aeroplanes to be flown safely.
