The Hermetic Arcanum: The secret work of the hermetic philosophy (The Occult Science of Philosophers' Stone) by Hermetic or Hermes Trismegistus.
**This kindle edition is special to add the history of Hermes Trismegistus, the great Renassiance Philosopher, Astrologist & Magician who wrote several sacred text of Alchemy.
The figure of Hermes Trismegistus, the Thrice Great Hermes, looms large in the Western esoteric tradition. Born from the fusion of the Greek and Egyptian spiritual traditions, the writings attributed to this great sage had a decisive effect on the Renaissance. Marsilio Ficino, the great Renaissance philosopher and astrologer, was asked by his Medici patron to put aside all other work to translate the Corpus Hermeticum, series of treatises attributed to Hermes Trismegistus. The availability of the complete Corpus Hermeticum in Latin set off an explosion of interest in Hermetic philosophy and the three allied esoteric fields of astrology, alchemy and magic.
