Before alchemy, before magic, before modern esotericism, there was Hermeticism.

Introduction to Hermeticism: The Wisdom of the Three Great Ones is a clear and practical guide to one of the oldest mystical philosophies in the Western tradition. Rooted in the teachings of Hermes Trismegistus — the “Three Great Ones” — this tradition shaped centuries of thought, from ancient Egypt and Greece to the Renaissance and beyond.

Nicole Lau introduces the timeless principles of Hermetic wisdom, revealing how its philosophy of correspondence, vibration, polarity, and transformation still offers guidance for modern seekers.

Inside this book, you will discover:

📜 The origins of Hermetic wisdom in Egypt and Greece

🔮 The “Hermetica” texts and their key insights

⚖️ The Seven Hermetic Principles and their practical meaning

🧭 How Hermeticism shaped alchemy, astrology, and magic

🌌 The Renaissance revival and modern Hermetic currents

🌀 Practical exercises for applying Hermetic principles today

Introduction to Hermeticism is both a historical overview and a hands-on guide, offering clarity to those beginning their journey into the hidden wisdom of Hermes.

To me, mysticism is not merely a set of practices—it is a philosophical language about existence and the architecture of consciousness.

This book is for those who seek to understand the essence of the esoteric through structure, principles, and symbolic systems.

If you’re looking for a hands-on magical manual with quick results, this may not be the book for you.

But if you're ready to dive into deeper thought and co-create a map of the mystical universe with me, welcome to the journey.
