Sefer Yetzirah or Book of Formation, the foundation work of Qabalah, and the oldest text on the subject. This book outlines the cosmology or creation story of how the universe was formed from the 22 Keys of the Hebrew letters, and their correspondences to the elements, planets and constellations.

Gems from the Vault is a 9-part series of rituals and workings. The early years (2017-2018) of the Arboretum Mysticum were overflowing with potent teachings and rituals that have been preserved for the ages. A special selection of these convergences have been selected by Naha from the vault, brought to the light, and given a breath of renewal for the arborists of today.

Paracelsus named the alchemical elements “Tria Prima” or three primes:
Salt: The body, the principle of non-combustibility and non-volatility. AM Lodge presents Tria Prima – an occult working of Salt, Sulphur, and Mercury.

“Roots to Heaven” is a 10-part working through the 10 Sephirot of the Tree of Life. Each session, we will focus on one sephira as we ascend the Tree. Over 10 weeks we will transmute the Vices associated with each sphere into their corresponding Virtues, removing the Illusions and drawing forth the Spiritual Experiences unique to each.

“The Kybalion” is a 16-part working of Hermetic Philosophy. This book, “The Kybalion,” attributed to the Three Initiates, is a classic work of esoteric literature that explores the fundamental principles of Hermetic Philosophy. Our 16-week journey into the magical philosophy of “The Kybalion” entails discussion of each chapter and engagement in ritual workings and meditations aligned with every chapter’s concepts. Through these ceremonial practices, we seek to embody the principles encapsulated in the text, transforming it into a grimoire of profound personal significance.

“Cube of Space” is a 7-part planetary working traveling along the faces of the Cube of Space. The 6 faces and the center are assigned to the 7 double letters of the Hebrew alephbet, and thusly to the 7 classical planets, and their corresponding major arcana.

In addition, the edges of each face are also assigned to a key, a letter, and a zodiac sign. In this working, arborists build each face of the cube, and in doing so, build the dimensions of height, width, and depth within their own magical arena. This working includes invocation, tarot exploration, gematria, sigil making, color and sound and the building of a consecrated model of the cube.

“Powers of the Shinx” is a 5-part working and activation of the powers of the Sphinx, crucial qualities of the magician’s lineage: To Dare, To Will, To Know, To Keep Silent, and the 5th occult power, To Make Sacred.

They are to be performed in the Elemental Order – Air, Fire, Water, Earth, Spirit.

“The Double Crowns of Mazalot” is a 12-part magical working with the Zodiacal Hexads.

Ritual and rites with the Angels of the Zodiac, the associated Shem names, the minor keys, the parts of the body, and inner secrets to be revealed. Talismanic Double Crowns for each hexad designed by William Kiesel to be utilized as ritual tools.

With deeper invocational work in the Interior Temple, this is a working focused less in analysis and more in direct contact with the zodiacal forces.

“In the grand tradition of the temples of mysteries and the orders and lodges of esoteric wisdom, we respectfully maintain the lineage of the Hermetic Qabalists – from the maji and mystics of the last century : Regardie and Hall, Case and Fortune, to the adepts of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn: Waite, the Mathers, Westcotts and Pamela Coleman Smith, and their predecessors Levi, Papus and Gebelin, Alliette, to the legendary Frater CRC and the Rosicrucian Order, to Kircher, Fludd, Agrippa and Dee, To Paracelcus, Della Mirandola, Reuchlin and Rabbi Lowe… to the women and men of the alchemists furnace, the cartographers of the stars, the temple guardians, to those who penned the grimoires, Old King Solomon himself, and to their guides, their teachers, and finally to the Secret Chiefs, the invisible inner council who guides our work and bestows our directives, we converge as the vibrant living legacy of esoteric thought and magical egregore. “
