Medieval Hermeticism

Medieval Hermeticism is a philosophical and spiritual tradition from the Renaissance period, based on writings attributed to Hermes Trismegistus. It explores the idea that the universe is interconnected through divine knowledge, emphasizing the pursuit of understanding hidden truths about nature, the cosmos, and humanity's divine origin. Hermetic texts blend elements of alchemy, astrology, and mystical insight, encouraging personal spiritual development and the belief that humans can access divine wisdom through study and inner reflection. This tradition influenced later scientific and esoteric thought, shaping ideas about the relationship between the spiritual and material worlds.
