In this episode Hermes as Hermes Trismegistus dropped in for a quick discussion. Hermes Trismegistus, also known as "Hermes the Thrice-Great," was a legendary figure of Hellenistic Egypt who was considered to be the founder of alchemy, astrology, and other occult sciences. He was syncretized with the Egyptian god Thoth and the Greek god Hermes, combining their attributes and symbolism.
Hermes Trismegistus was said to have lived during the time of Moses and was believed to be a great sage, philosopher, and priest-king. He was credited with writing a vast corpus of works on various subjects, including philosophy, theology, alchemy, and astrology. These works, known as the Hermetica, were highly influential in the development of Western mysticism and occult traditions.
The true identity of Hermes Trismegistus is unknown, and there is no historical evidence to support his existence as a real person. However, he remains a significant figure in the history of esoteric thought, and his teachings continue to inspire practitioners of mysticism and alchemy.
As always, thank you for listening.
