Dear student,

As we approach the end of another year and celebrate the holiday season, it's a great time to reflect on the blessings we've received and the challenges we've faced. No matter what has happened in the past year, it's important to remember that we have the power to choose how we respond to circumstances and to find joy and hope in the present moment.

One of the profound aspects of the Christmas holiday is the true Hermetic meaning behind it and symbolism it represents. The birth of Christ is a metaphor for the birth of the divine within each and every one of us. It is a reminder of our inherent goodness and the potential for greatness that exists within us. It's a time to come together with loved ones, to express gratitude and to celebrate the divinity within ourselves and others.

No matter what challenges we may be facing or what difficult situations we may be navigating, it's important to remember that we are not alone. We are all connected, and we can find strength and support in one another. Let's take a moment to reach out to friends and loved ones, to offer a kind word or a helping hand. Let's remember the power of compassion and the difference it can make in our own lives and in the lives of those around us.

As we celebrate Christmas and the holiday season, let's embrace the symbol of the birth of the divine within us. Let's focus on the present moment and all that we have to be grateful for. Let's make a commitment to bring joy and positivity into the world, and to make a positive difference in the lives of those around us.

Wishing you and your loved ones a very Merry Christmas and a happy and mystical holiday season!

(in 2023 we will delve in much greater depth into the secrets of the Psalms and the Hermetic principles!)
