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.

In addition to working on publishing projects I have been writing a series of classes for online presentations. As a publisher and sole proprietor of Ouroboros Press I find myself wearing quite a few hats. This makes the prospect of initiating an entirely new wing to my fleet of responsibilities a bit daunting, especially since I prefer the old world to the digital realm. That said, with the pandemic still active throughout the globe and my lack of being able to speak in public (in the flesh) forums I have decided to give more online presentations.
At some point I hope to host some of my presentations (and those of others) on the Mortlake and Company website. But in the meantime here are some links to online classes I did with 22 Teachings:

Hermetic Enigmas of the Esoteric Tradition with William Kiesel a 3-part lecture

Sigils in Practical Magic with William Kiesel

Moonwalking: Lunar Mansions in Theory & Practice with William Kiesel

In preparing for my upcoming class Cosmology in Hermetic Alchemy  and I find myself really enjoying the great resource Alexander Roob's book can be. Taschen puts out so many of these so-called brick books but Alchemy and Mysticism is certainly one of my favorites.
Alchemy is also known as the Royal Art and this stems from the fact the alchemists work with nature to bring about transmutation of matter into a new state, but also because the books and manuscripts often express the esoteric concepts in artful ways.
This full color tribute to alchemical art is packed full of imagery covering the many byways of the magnum opus and gathers many of the images into distinct subjects such as the various stages of the work to anthropomorphic forms common to alchemical themes.
This is one of those books that deserves a place in any esoteric library.

Meanwhile Dom Antoin-Josef Pernety's Mytho-Hermetic Dictionary supplies us not only with mythological and symbolic imagery but also with illuminating definitions of the alchemical opus which unlock the mysteries of the allegories of the myths in alchemical texts.
This English language translation from the original French, executed by Joseph Zabinski, gives great insight into what the exotic and abstract imagery and terms in alchemical texts are meant to convey both in practical and allegorical  arenas.
Whereas Roob's book is more accessible to beginners, the Pernety book allows a deeper dive into the Hermetic Arcana.
Referring to the Mytho-Hermetic Dictionary repays the effort every time.
