⁂ the emerald tablet

the emerald tablet — classical Hermeticism: Hermes Trismegistus, the Corpus Hermeticum, the Emerald Tablet, and the seven principles (Mentalism, Correspondence, Vibration, Polarity, Rhythm, Cause & Effect, Gender) — each set beside the Kabbalistic teaching it rhymes with. Alexandrian, and older than the Tree's own books. NOT Golden Dawn 'Hermetic Qabalah' — that lives on the descendants' bench.
