Liber Sphaerae
Liber Sphaerae is now available from Amazon. I began writing about two years ago during the first, serious lockdown, the one where the planes stopped flying and motorways were completely clear of cars.

Liber Sphaerae
I will be 71 in a couple of weeks. Growing old focuses the mind on how little time remains. There are many nails I could hit with my hammer, but I can choose only one or two and then it is Game Over. For this reason I have set aside work on this website in…

Welcome, and Whats-Up
Welcome to this new blog. It is part of the Hermetic Kabbalah site at digital-brilliance.com. For the past five years I have been preparing a book, and consequently the site is not updated as much as I would like (apart from Don Karr, who updates his many contributions regularly). I hope the blog will provide a…
