ABOUT HSS Q/A

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Hermetic Kundalini Yoga?

Hermetic Kundalini Yoga is a practice that weaves together Western Hermetic principles with the ancient wisdom of India. Hermetic Kundalini Yoga is designed and practiced to ground you in the powerful practices and meditative rituals to awaken you to know your true self, through the alignment of Mind, body and spirit. 

Alignment is achieved through harmonizing your 7 core energy centers known as the 7 chakras or energy wheels of life force.  allowing you to create a stable foundation to stand on allowing  you to weather the storms of life without breaking, cracking, or shattering. 

What is the core philosophy of the HSS?

 We follow a Non-Dualist path. We recognize the God and Goddess energy as one single Divine source. We venerate the union of Shiva (Divine Masculine) and Shakti (Divine Feminine) as the energy of all creation. We believe this energy exists within us, just as we exist within it. Learn more HERE

What is the "Kundalini" you speak of?

In our teachings, Kundalini is the life force, the "coiled serpent" at the base of the spine. Biologically, we view this as the Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF)—the clear liquid that nourishes and protects the brain and spinal cord. Spiritually, it is the sexual energy and creative Life force that connects you to all things, people, and lifetimes. Learn more about the science of Kundalini HERE

What its Western Hermeticism ?

Western Hermeticism is a spiritual and philosophical tradition rooted in the Hellenistic wisdom literature attributed to the legendary figure Hermes Trismegistus, a syncretic blend of the Greek god Hermes and the Egyptian god Thoth. Emerging in late antiquity and significantly revived during the Renaissance, it emphasizes the pursuit of gnosis (direct, experiential knowledge of the divine) through the study of three primary disciplines: alchemy, (The Alchemical Marriage) astrology, (your celestial map) and theurgy (ritual magic). Central to its worldview is the principle of correspondence—famously summarized as "As above, so below"—which suggests an intrinsic connection between the cosmos (the macrocosm) and the individual (the microcosm), teaching that humanity acts as a bridge between the spiritual and material realms with the potential to actively participate in the ongoing creation of the universe.

How do you approach healing?

We believe healing begins at the Heart Chakra, the gate to the entire chakra system. We use meditation and self-hypnosis to unlock the heart, allowing us to integrate our shadow, inner child, and ego. This process transforms pain into pleasure, suffering into healing, and lust into creative passion.

Is this a traditional religious group?

No. The HSS is specifically for those who do not fit into traditional paths. We are a spiritual community founded on equality. We are free of gurus, free of rigid gender roles, and free of condemnation or conversion teachings. We recognize the spark of truth in all paths and seek to unite in the power of unconditional  Love and compassion.
