“The lips of wisdom are closed, except to the ears of Understanding.”
Attributed to Hermes Trismegistus — the thrice-great
“Gender is in everything; everything has its Masculine and Feminine Principles; Gender manifests on all planes.”
— The Kybalion
Drag to see what happens when energy moves out of balance
Every virtue has a shadow. When Yin energy goes unchecked by Yang, it collapses into manipulation. When Yang energy goes unchecked by Yin, it hardens into restriction. The path is always through the center — the sacred lens where opposites meet.
From The Kybalion — attributed to Hermes Trismegistus. These axioms describe the fundamental laws governing all planes of existence.
The All is Mind; the Universe is Mental.
“Under and behind the Universe of Time, Space and Change, is ever to be found The Substantial Reality — the Fundamental Truth.”
Everything that exists begins as thought. The material universe is a mental creation of The All — an infinite living mind. To change your reality, change your mind first.
As above, so below; as below, so above.
“This Principle embodies the truth that there is always a Correspondence between the laws and phenomena of the various planes of Being and Life.”
The patterns of the macrocosm repeat in the microcosm. The atom mirrors the solar system. Your inner world mirrors your outer world. Understanding one plane unlocks understanding of all planes.
Nothing rests; everything moves; everything vibrates.
“The differences between different manifestations of Matter, Energy, Mind, and Spirit, result largely from varying rates of Vibration.”
From the densest matter to the highest spirit, everything is in motion. The difference between lead and gold, fear and love, is frequency. Raise your vibration and you raise your reality.
Everything is dual; everything has poles; everything has its pair of opposites.
“Opposites are identical in nature, but different in degree. Extremes meet. All truths are but half-truths. All paradoxes may be reconciled.”
Hot and cold are the same thing — temperature — differing only in degree. Love and hate, courage and fear, are not truly opposite but exist on a single spectrum. The alchemist transmutes by sliding along the pole.
Everything flows, out and in; everything has its tides.
“The Pendulum-swing manifests in everything; the measure of the swing to the right is the measure of the swing to the left; rhythm compensates.”
Seasons, moods, civilizations, breaths — all rise and fall in rhythmic cycles. The master does not try to stop the pendulum but learns to polarize above its swing, remaining centered while the world oscillates.
Every Cause has its Effect; every Effect has its Cause.
“Nothing merely happens. There is no such thing as Chance. Everything happens according to Law.”
There are no accidents. Every event has a chain of causation. Most people are effects — moved by will and desire of others. The master rises above the plane of effects and becomes a cause, a mover rather than a pawn.
Gender is in everything; everything has its Masculine and Feminine Principles.
“Gender manifests on all planes. No creation, physical, mental or spiritual, is possible without this Principle.”
Gender goes far beyond sex. The Masculine principle is the outward, active, projecting will. The Feminine principle is the inward, receptive, creative womb. Both are required for all creation — on every plane of existence.
“The Universe is Mental — held in the Mind of THE ALL.”
