The world is older and deeper than we know, and there are paths hidden under the sun and the moon, trodden by few, forgotten by many. You who have come here, not by chance but by fate, have found the threshold of an ancient Fellowship, older than kingdoms, older than the stars seen from the towers of forgotten cities.
In the dusky light of the elder days, when the rivers of Egypt sang to the stars and the desert sands whispered the Names of Power, a brotherhood was born: a fellowship of wisdom-keepers, wanderers, and wayfarers of the soul. These were the Hermetic Brotherhood of Egypt, guardians of a lore older than memory, companions to those who seek the deeper music of the world.
We are the heirs of that elder tradition — not lords nor masters, but fellow travelers on the Road of Awakening. Here, the high towers of thought and the hidden wells of wisdom stand open to those who would tread the Way with a true heart. We make no boast of wealth, no claim to worldly power; but rather, we offer a hearth, a lamp, and a map to those who would journey into the mystery at the world's heart.
You will find here no stern gatekeepers, no cruel tests, no riddles for pride’s sake. Rather, you will find companions, humble and steadfast, who walk beside you; and a light kindled long ago, that has never wholly gone out, though kingdoms have fallen and seas have swallowed the mountains.
If your heart stirs at the whisper of ancient songs, if you have long felt the call of distant stars and unseen kingdoms, then be welcome among us.
Sit by the fire awhile, and listen. There are many tales yet to tell, and many roads to walk.
The path is before you.
Enter, friend, and be welcome.
