In this episode of Synapse & Shadow, we begin our exploration of one of the most influential philosophical frameworks in Western esoteric thought—the Seven Hermetic Laws. Over the next few episodes, we’ll examine each principle in depth, uncovering its historical context, psychological implications, and surprising connections to quantum physics.

Today, we introduce Hermetic Philosophy as a whole and take a deep dive into the First Principle: The Principle of Mentalism—the idea that “The All is Mind.” We discuss how this concept shapes magical practice, its parallels in modern physics, and how you can apply it in your daily life.
