The 7 Hermetic Principles

http://ratak-monodosico.tumblr.com/

THE PRINCIPLE OF MENTALISM (THE ALL IS MIND; The Universe is Mental.)

THE PRINCIPLE OF CORRESPONDENCE (

As above, so below; as below, so above.)

THE PRINCIPLE OF VIBRATION (Nothing rests; everything moves; everything vibrates.)

THE PRINCIPLE OF POLARITY (Everything is Dual; everything has poles; everything has its pair of opposites; like and unlike are the same; opposites are identical in nature,but different in degree; extremes meet; all truths are but half-truths; all paradoxes may be reconciled.)

THE PRINCIPLE OF RHYTHM (Everything flows, out and in; everything has its tides; all things rise and fall; the pendulum-swing manifests in everything; the measure of the swing to the right is the measure of the swing to the left; rhythm compensates.)

THE PRINCIPLE OF CAUSE AND EFFECT (Every Cause has its Effect; every Effect has its Cause; everything happens according to Law; Chance is but a name for Law not recognized; there are many planes of causation, but nothing escapes the Law.)

THE PRINCIPLE OF GENDER (Gender is in everything; everything has its Masculine and Feminine Principles; Gender manifests on all planes.)
