The Kybalion- or “The Laws of the Universe” by Hermes, the God of Wisdom
Ancient Keys for Modern Mystics
Step into the mysteries of The Kybalion in this engaging four-class series taught by Story Lucile Ducey and other faculty at the Institute for Spiritual Development. Together, we will explore the ancient Hermetic principles said to open the “Magic Key” of wisdom, inviting students to expand consciousness, deepen personal insight, and discover how these timeless teachings can be applied to everyday life.
Study the ancient Hermetic keys to Enlightenment & sharpen your psychic skills.
Each class will explore the principles of the Kybalion —-and teach ways in which you can incorporate them into your intuitive readings.
The 7 Principles of the Kybalion, an ancient teaching from Hermes, are a foundation to modern metaphysical principles, on which the Institute for Spiritual Development are based.
