The Western Esoteric Tradition
The Western Esoteric Tradition encompasses a set of spiritual and philosophical ideas rooted in mystical, symbolic, and hidden knowledge from Western history. It includes practices like alchemy, astrology, magic, and Kabbalah, aiming to understand and influence the unseen forces of the universe. These traditions often emphasize personal spiritual growth, self-discovery, and the pursuit of hidden truths beyond conventional science and religion.
