We are living in a time of unprecedented planetary initiation as our world is shifting from one state to another. This book takes us on journey of this process of initiation as an esoteric or hermetic experience as seen from the perspective of the Law of Time. It shows that individual initiations correspond very closely to the shifts of consciousness that we, as an entire species, are passing. This book also emphasizes the continuity of the hermetic tradition in the past two centuries and includes biographical sketches of many esotericists such as Madame Blavatsky, Aleister Crowley, Dane Rudhyar, Sri Aurobindo, Alice Bailey, Nicholas Roerich, G.I. Gurdjieff and Mevlana, among others. It also explores the nature of symbols and symbolic systems; cosmic mediumship in the coming age; and the nature of sex from the esoteric perspective. The text concludes with a thorough introductory description of the synchronic order as a symbolic construct.
