Hermeticism has long taught that the universe is reflected within the human soul and that through the planets and elements, the witch or magus can learn to move between worlds. For witches, these teachings are not merely historical or philosophical. They are living practices, currents of power that can be felt, invoked, and transformed into personal gnosis.
The Witch's Hermetic Trees: Planets, Elements, and the Paths of Power is the fifth book in the Roots of Gnosis series. It draws together the practical magick of witchcraft and the symbolic architecture of Hermetic philosophy to reveal a new way of walking the Trees. Here the planetary forces, elemental currents, and cosmic patterns of the Hermetic tradition are woven into the witch's path.
This book offers both a map and a set of tools. The Hermetic Trees mirror the movements of the heavens, but they also exist within the witch, waiting to be awakened. By journeying through the Trees, practitioners can harness the planetary powers, master elemental balance, and claim the path of transformation that unites the Above and the Below.
Inside you will find:
An exploration of Hermetic philosophy and its resonance with witchcraft
The planets as gateways of power and initiation
The elements as foundational forces in ritual and self-mastery
The Hermetic Trees as living structures connecting planetary and elemental currents
Pathworkings and guided journeys through planetary and elemental spheres
Rituals for balancing the forces of Fire, Water, Air, Earth, and Spirit
Practices for integrating Hermetic wisdom into daily witchcraft
At its heart, this book is about alignment. To work with the Hermetic Trees is to stand in the meeting point of microcosm and macrocosm, discovering how every planetary cycle and elemental current is mirrored within the witch's own being. It is about stepping into the flow of cosmic law while also shaping one's destiny through magickal will.
Clear, practical, and visionary, The Witch's Hermetic Trees invites you to walk the ancient paths of Hermetic wisdom with the tools of witchcraft in your hands. It is an initiatory guide to power, balance, and the sacred weaving of the heavens and the earth.
