This Ancient Hermetic Law Governs All Planes Of Existence

The hermetic tradition has long been concerned with the relationship between the inner world of our consciousness and the outer world of nature, between the microcosm and the macrocosm, the below and the above, the material and the spiritual, the centric and the peripheral. The hermetic worldview held by figures such as Pythagoras, Plato, the Stoics, and Renaissance alchemists such as Robert Fludd and Paracelsus pictured a great chain of being linking our inner spark of consciousness, with all the facets of the Great World. This world was described as a platonic metaphysical clockwork, through which our inner world was linked by means of a hierarchy of beings and planes to the highest unity of the Divine. The patterns of the microcosm and macrocosm are all around us, whether we experience them in nature, or in our own bodies, they are always there, and they will still be around long after we are dead. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🗝 Support Agrippa’s Diary: 📘 One-time donations via PayPal: ☕ Tip me with a Coffee: 🎦 Subscribe to YouTube: @agrippasdiary 📱Follow Agrippa’s Diary on Tik Tok: @agrippasdiary 📷Follow Agrippa’s Diary on Instagram: 📚Agrippa’s Library of Occult Wisdom: 🗏 Link to the Transcript: ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎶 Music used in the video: 1. ’Decoherence’ by Scott Buckley - released under CC-BY 4.0. 2. ’Dreams Become Real’ - Kevin MacLeod 3. ’Crystal Dream’ by CO.
