From the Quarries

Good morning Quarrymen

As promised, I have a major announcement this week

Unfortunately, owing to work commitments there won’t be a new ‘From the Quarries’ video this weekend. However I do have some exciting news to announce!

Announcing ‘Jesting Pilate’ Offering Access to the Western Hermetic Tradition

“Jesting Pilate,” a new online platform dedicated to the exploration of the Western Hermetic Tradition, will launched this weekend on YouTube and the Web.

The platform features two captivating series, “Winging it with Wisdom” and “Bibliotheca Sapientiae Hermeticae,” designed to engage and enlighten audiences of all backgrounds.

“Winging it with Wisdom” is a light-hearted and accessible video series that offers an entertaining introduction to the profound philosophies and influential thinkers of the Western Hermetic Tradition. This series makes the arcane accessible, guiding viewers through the labyrinth of esoteric ideas, from ancient Egyptian mysteries to the enigmatic symbolism of the Kabbalah.

In contrast, “Bibliotheca Sapientiae Hermeticae” is an in-depth collection of annotated commentaries on primary source works informing the Western Hermetic Tradition. It features meticulous analysis of the original texts of Hermes Trismegistus, Paracelsus, Giordano Bruno, and other key figures. This series offers a unique and comprehensive journey through the foundations of the Western Hermetic Tradition, ideal for those seeking a deeper understanding.

“Jesting Pilate” invites viewers to embark on an exhilarating journey of discovery, delving into the timeless wisdom of the Western Hermetic Tradition. Both series promise to enlighten, entertain, and inspire audiences as they explore the rich spiritual and intellectual heritage that has captivated seekers for centuries.

It is thanks to all of you for your ongoing support and participation that I have been able to take this major step. It is my hope that this type of non-Masonic content will meet the needs of all of the wonderful Quarryfolk out there who are looking to go beyond the ritual to look at the ideas and philosophies that underpin the Craft as we know it.

The website, video channel and first two text publications will be unleashed this weekend! Stay tuned for more!
