Anyone who thinks that mystery schools only existed in ancient times is mistaken. In every human being there is the wonderful gift to recognize the valuable things of life. But how many people allow themselves to be opened to this gift? Ever since I decided to follow the mystical path of the Western mystery tradition, this recognition has gone deeper and deeper. And much that had been invisible to me until then became visible, palpable and recognizable. Studying at the Hermetic Academy enriches my life immensely.

Fascination for the big questions of mankind. Even as a child I was fascinated by the great questions of mankind, to which I could not find answers in my environment. So the registration for the Hermetic Academy was a logical step, which let me enter a treasure house of hidden knowledge. Here I found what I was looking for, here my spiritual development took shape.

Who is dissatisfied with his life and wants to improve it, is right here. The Hermetic Academy gradually opens up a way for me not only to improve my life in all areas of life, but also to lead a fulfilled life. To transform self-knowledge and one’s own weaknesses into positive ones every day is a constant challenge that pays off. For me, the Hermetic Academy is a sure signpost to reach the most important goals and at the same time to recognize the underlying meaning.

Beate Amann

I can look back on many positive developments in my personality and soul. For a long time I searched for longing answers to certain life questions, to questions about the creation of heaven and earth and to questions about personal spirituality. Over the years, I had tried to answer these questions from numerous sources, unfortunately most of them with only moderate success and a lot of disappointment. In the study of the Hermetic Academy, however, I find exactly the answers that my mind and soul have longed for so long. The beauty of the Hermetik Academy is that the learning content is simple, effective, practical and up-to-date. Especially the preparation of mystical, hermetic and spiritual knowledge towards modern and contemporary content appeals to me, because I can establish a direct relation to my everyday life. I feel and experience the positive results and experiences of the provided tools, contents and meditations in my everyday life and therefore use them very often. Over the years of my studies, I can look back on many positive developments in my personality and soul and am very, very grateful for them. I can therefore recommend the Hermetic Academy to any seeker without restriction.

Answers to the important questions of life. After years of searching and empty promises on so-called spiritual paths, I finally get answers to the important questions of life in the Hermetic Academy. I like the structured approach, from the easy initial lessons to answers I couldn’t find anywhere else. In addition, I can determine my own pace of progress.

Gunter Schmidt

Knowledge and values with exemplary character. Through the Hermetic Academy I came into contact with people who impressed me very much with their nature, knowledge and values and who became role models for me. I find it exciting to deal with all these topics in a completely different way than I was used to with conventional scientific or religious theories.

Ingrid M.

The Hermetic Academy is very enriching for people who want to develop themselves further. The methods and techniques really bring about changes that I would not have thought possible before. You meet open-minded, like-minded people who work a lot on themselves. This is a great enrichment for my life!

M. Heinrich

The courses about the universal principles are manifold and profound. Since a friend recommended the Hermetic Academy to me, I have been so enthusiastic that I can only say “thank you”! The course contents about the universal principles are so varied and profound that I can read the texts again and again and learn something new and exciting every time. It’s the only thing that really helped me in my life, since then I haven’t bought any other books. Clear recommendation from me!

Bettina L.

An ever deeper understanding of the interplay and influence of cosmic forces. If one evaluates the Hermetic Academy according to its effects in daily life and its results in personality development, then I can report an ever greater inner stability and an ever better psychological balance, as well as an ever deeper understanding of the interplay and the influence of cosmic forces on humanity. Very recommendable!

Slobodan O.

Immerse yourself in the mysteries of life. The search for the meaning of life and the longing for new insights and further development led me to the Hermetic Academy. Here I get answers to the basic questions of life and can dive deeper and deeper into the mysteries of life through theory and practice, daily exercises. The way of the western mystery tradition is very varied and an enrichment as well as helpful to master the daily life circumstances, for this I am very grateful.

Monika J.

Much food for thought and impulses to question my point of view as well as my behaviour anew. As a believing person I was deterred by the double standards of the church and that I did not get any answers to my questions there. In the Hermetic Academy I have already received many thought-provoking impulses and impulses and have learnt to question my point of view as well as my behaviour anew. I am very curious about what will follow.

Magdalena M.

Central key for all open, unanswered and burning life questions. The Hermetic Academy is a central key for all open, unanswered and burning life questions, for every person who seeks or asks for the real, even true meaning of his life. For me, the teachings and techniques of the Hermetic Academy are a real help on the spiritual path of transformation and self-knowledge. I can recommend the Hermetic Academy to anyone who is looking for it.

Rosi K.

Guidance for a happier and more successful life. We are subject to certain laws that have a permanent influence on our lives. I have tried to collect the knowledge about this in books and lectures – which proved to be a great challenge due to the complexity of the subject until I discovered the Hermetic Academy. Here this knowledge is very clearly arranged, structured and built on top of each other in a meaningful way and you get a well-founded overview. I am very grateful for this, because it finally enables me to make my life happier and more successful and to realize that this exciting journey has only just begun.

Marco S.

With the Hermetic Academy I get access to laws, tools, contents and answers, which are all verifiable. Here my search ended and with the Hermetic Academy a new spiritual path began for me. Until then I explored many so-called spiritual paths, but they all led me to a dead end and were disappointing. I received hardly any satisfactory answers or tools. Often I received empty promises or unverifiable statements. With the Hermetic Academy I get access to laws, tools, contents and answers, which are all verifiable. The learning contents are simple, effective and provide a comprehensive reference for better coping with one’s own everyday life. I can absolutely recommend the Hermetic Academy to any spiritual seeker or interested person.

Hubert Raidel

Through my studies at the Hermetic Academy, I have gone from being a victim of my destiny to being responsible for myself in my life. By putting the learned theory into practice life is very exciting – a conscious development. My “mental hunger for love” is satisfied. I feel the love in my heart and don’t need to look for it in other things or people anymore. It would be nice if many people would find this way.

Sabine P.

Gold treasure for humanity. Step by step, knowledge is made accessible to us that leads us to knowledge, enabling us to master the massive challenges of our everyday lives in a positive way.

Alexandra Vonkilch

Theoretical and practical answers to the question of the meaning of life. The Hermetic Academy offers theoretical and practical answers to the question of the meaning of one’s own life and that of all life. Many thanks for the opportunity to experience the meaning of life.

A karmic equation... It is no coincidence that a new member joins the Hermetics Academy. It is a karmic equation (impression, wish, deed), which makes the seeker from Manktum aware of the knowledge of the So-Being (if subconscious is reporting) and the willingness of the higher being to want to fulfill. The precondition is to have emptiness (manktum) and to want to fulfil (God or higher principle). The prerequisite in itself is given in the nature of itself. (related to itself).

Nils S.

Learning deeper truths ... I would like to take this opportunity to thank you from the bottom of my heart for providing such a high-quality online course on Hermetics and the Western Mysteries. I am a Muslim myself and in my religion I am completely denied to learn deeper truths because I am a woman. For many years I have tried to teach myself through available books. But in the end this only made me unhappier. Just like someone who falls into pits without a teacher, as there is no one to show you a safe way. I broke the chains in a few years and today I am ready to accept new teachings as long as they fulfill me, make me happy and I can accept them completely. Now I have found the Hermetic Academy and I can't be happier with it. Of course I question and remain attentive. But the few lessons I have had so far have already given me a lot of peace. Thank you very much for your noble requests.

Knock and it will be opened to you... Behind the governmental laws, which can be very different from region to region, there are universal laws (laws of nature) which have the same validity for every human being. With the Hermetic Academy the universal laws of creation were made accessible to the interested public in an easy-to-understand modern language with the greatest care and consideration. From one lesson to the next, ever deeper secrets of the mystery tradition open up to the student. Through the theoretical study and execution of the practical exercises, the student becomes an ever-increasing channel for growth, harmony and balance. Over time, the student's own family life experiences a new quality of being together. Friendships are based on deeper levels. In the world of professional life the student can use his new skills to create synergies instead of working against each other. Whoever wants to dive into the deepest secrets of creation and humanity will not be able to avoid personal contact with the people behind the Hermetic Academy. "Knock and it shall be opened unto you."

Daniel R.

A treasure of concentrated knowledge... The Hermetic Academy - a treasure of concentrated knowledge and millennia of traditional wisdom. The Hermetic Academy is a collection of practical spiritual techniques, spiritual knowledge and millennia-old wisdom transcribed into the present day by experienced masters. It is a wealth from which one can draw new things every day.

Paul V.

Once I discovered The Hermetic Academy I never looked back... After a few years of looking at various esoteric training systems, once I discovered The Hermetic Academy I never looked back. The experience has been (and continues to be) life-changing. The lessons are easy to understand, and the exercises are simple, but highly effective for personal change. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to make the most of themselves and take control of their life.

Ethan Bartlett

Inner calm and strength... Hermetic Academy has given me inner calm and the strength to use my own mind to make good decisions. I have found the answers to questions for which I had long given up the search. There is truly not an area of my life that has not been changed through these teachings.

Shelley Bartlett

It opened up a world of deep, lasting inner peace... Hermetic Academy and the training, teaching, and practice it provides has opened up a world of deep, lasting inner peace, self-discovery, hope, courage, and a capacity to give and receive love in a true and beautiful way. I am and will be forever grateful for its presence in my life. I would advise any person struggling with the serious existential questions of life, the nature of suffering, and your true purpose to step through the door and begin studying these principle.
