About the Book

"Hermetic Qabalah, is a Western esoteric and mystical t dition.It is the underlying philosophy and framework for agicalsocieties such as the Golden Dawn, Thelemic orders, ysticalsocieties such as the Builders of the Adytum and the Fel owshipof the Rosy Cross, and is a precursor to the Neopagan, Wiccanand New Age movements.Hermetic Qabalah draws on a great many influence, mostnotably: Jewish Kabbalah, Western astrology, occul Tarot,alchemy, pagan religions (especially Egyptian and Greco-Roman), neoplatonism, gnosticism, the Enochian s em ofangelic magic of John Oee and Edward Kelly, herm ticism,rosicrucianism, Freemasonry, and tantra. It differs fr m theJewish form in being a more admittedly syncretichowever it shares many concepts with Jewish Kabbalah.

It is most often transliterated with a 'Q' rather than a 'K'distinguishing it from Jewish Kabbalahand Christia n Cab(Quote from wikipe ia.org)

1This inte rp etation of the hie roglyphi c mea ning of the Hebrew lettersis taken fro a very rare and valuable manuscript in possession of Mr.Gewurz. He has in preparation a larger work, on "The Restoration ofthe Hebrew Language," into which this manuscript will be embodied.Those who re interested in ancient languages, and the lovers of theHebrew to ue especially, will find this larger work a great help intheir studie . Mr. Gewurz has already devoted to it over ten years ofunti ring Iabur, but it may ta ke another yea r ti II it is complete.
