10/30/2020

The materials for the press run are now being assembled for Hermetica which will be printed during November and December. The metal plates for the gold stamping on the cover are also being cut. The dust jacket for this title is being printed on 80# Mohawk Superfine. (See Image Inset)
The response to announcing this title has been fantastic, as have the many kind notes folks have shared with their orders. I am grateful for the community of readers who still believe in the benefits of the book. With digital technology advancing at incredible speed, we are seeing amazing potential in terms of communication. The pace that the digital world expects of us can be faster that some deem healthy over extended periods. Far from the brevity of an email or social media post, a book offers a temple for the mind - a resting place from the whirring machine. A book offers a transmutation of pace or even of place. The Mind is something Hermes speaks about in these dialogues and reading them offers respite from the worldly and Illumination for the mind.

Hermetica: The Dialogues of Hermes Mercurius Trismegistus

10/16/2020

It is very satisfying to have finished up the editing and layout on the latest Ouroboros Press title: HERMETICA: The Dialogues of Hermes Mercurial Trismegistus. While the Pandemic has cancelled many events, travel and other social activities, working on the Hermetica has been a light shining in the darkness.
One of the things that makes the Ouroboros Press edition special are the editorial notes and comments of Anna Bonus Kingsford, a noted and important esotericist from the turn-of-the-century who also fought for women's and animal rights. She is a fascinating person and deserves wider appreciation. 

Pictured a production mock-up of the new book which comes in at a stout 320 pages! The book is now in production with the release set for Winter 2020 [Dec/Jan]. Pre-Orders are open now.
