At least five years.

Okay, okay.

Do you consider yourself Hermeticist?

How do you say it?

Or...

I am a student of mystery schools, yes.

Very much so.

Yep, yep.

And so without you and your knowledge of this and studying this for five years, you never would have seen any of this stuff.

You had to know that.

So for you, it's the key that unlocked all of this, and nobody else has been looking at this from the lens of Hermeticism.

So that's what makes this so fascinating to me, because it is a philosophical tradition that makes a lot of sense in a lot of ways.

Hermeticism is a philosophical tradition concerned with the underlying order of reality.

It teaches that the universe operates accordingly to consistent principles that link mind, nature, and cosmos, and that these principles can be understood through symbolism, geometry, and observation rather than belief or doctrine.

A system of universal principles governing reality.

Reality is ordered, intelligible, and interconnected.

Knowledge is conveyed through symbolism and allegory.

Emphasizes harmony between consciousness, nature, and cosmos.

Encoded in sacred texts, geometry, and architecture.

Do you think, I guess, first off, do you think that Hermeticism as it came from Hermes?
