It’s the age of knowledge and in 2026 you have access to theories, ideas and speculative guesses that supposedly explain this thing called life, but truth is in very short supply.
There are scientific, theological, biological and religious explanations – skepticism about all four – and those with dissenting ideas have trouble making sense of the opposing side’s point of view. So, when you add up all the uncertain knowledge, abstruse appraisals and conflicting arguments everything gets nicely muddled.
You have several worldviews to choose from, but the scientific and religious options are the two most popular: And it’s a fact that when it comes to making sense of the universe, the Earth and life there’s a lot more that we don’t know than we know.
The age of science and technology has brought transitional change and social uncertainty and there’s a great deal of confusion, uncertainty and misunderstanding in the science laboratories and halls of learning.
Mathematics is now so complex that few people really understand it; and neuroscience observes the brain’s electrical activity but is ignorant of the unconscious mind and its vast reservoir of intelligence.
It’s a fact that the academic world is a field of conflicting opinions and opposing ideas where critics of this, that and the other, spend their time opposing theories they don’t understand; and the search for answers involves mystical thinking and unscientific subjective mental processes like hunches and intuitions.
In the beginning knowledge-seekers became scientific because they expected law in nature. They had a belief in God – the lawgiver – and this belief became the driving force that led to observation and experiment.
In physics the search began with a belief in an intelligent universe. And now while the search for answers is no longer impeded by religious authority and tradition, and there’s freedom of information and freedom of expression, it’s biased by ideological constraints. In all fields of endeavor there’s a follow the crowd mentality and this reveals that there’s not much original thinking going on.
The search for an answer usually starts with a ‘how’ or ‘why’ question. Simple easy questions have simple, easy mechanical answers, but deep, profound questions have complex, abstruse answers that are usually hard to understand.
And there are many questions still waiting for answers. Like, how can electrical states of brain give rise to subjective experience? Where do thoughts come from? And is it possible to know what is truly good and what is evil?
The sense of thirst is a great mystery: science doesn’t know what it is or how it works; and desire awaits an explanation. Where does the push to do something come from? Where is it in the brain? And is freewill real or just an illusion? And there are lots of problems too.
It seems that the soul is more of a problem than it’s worth. And consciousness, memory and the objective thinker who provides a first-person perspective are very big problems.
They’re all facts of life, but those asking the questions struggle for coherent, logical answers. Do you really think that this great thing called life is simply matter in motion and that your glorious thought and feeling world emerged out of a 3-pound meat machine called your brain?
Neuroscience has the problem of proving it did. Francis Crick, the co-discoverer of DNA, didn’t need any scientific proof. He reckoned that you – the extraordinary being who creates ideas and thinks the thoughts – are just an illusion who doesn’t exist.
It’s a 21st-century fact of life that much scientific thought and opinion is atheism driven and if atheism is true the mind that’s doing the science is the end product of a thoughtless unguided random process.
It was back in 1953, when DNA was discovered, that the atheistic genie leaped out of the test tube. And now mechanistic biology dominates the science agenda and the conversations of its loyal and staunch devotees.
Your existence has been reduced to, and explained by, a chemical segment called a gene. It’s a simple, ridiculous answer to the most important question you will ever ask.
Religion and the Bible in 2026
It’s a fact that religion stopped searching for answers for big life questions a long time ago. It understands and explains life in a fundamental biblical way and is trying to adapt to the new age by providing relevant religious information to a world that’s dominated by biological facts and rational science.
Religion is always presented as immaterial, subjective belief and science as material, objective evidence. So, if God imagined and created the universe, science wants religion to explain how S/he did it. But the Bible is not a textbook of science. It does say things about the physical universe, but is more concerned with bigger issues and if you know how to read it right, you'll discover a lot of important answers.
Your search for personal truth
There are things you want to know so you ask questions and search for answers.
You know about your conscious mental world, family background and local environment, but who are you and what’s really deep down inside your consciousness? And are you able to control your life so that you can do and get whatever you want?
Your most important truth is personal truth – the truth of your personal, subjective evidence – and it’s a fact that there are very deep differences when it comes to explaining your existence.
You’ll adopt a life philosophy which closely matches how your life pans out, but you’ve got two factors to consider: What happens and how you respond. But do you want your existence and life experience explained as a meaningless, random genetic event?
You might think that DNA is the music you dance to, but sheer determinism like that removes all morality. And your big dilemma is working out the universal philosophy that guarantees you and every human being a rewarding, fulfilling life if it’s adopted as a personal moral compass.
As an Aquarian age thinker, you’re inundated with scientific facts, but you can’t be blamed for thinking that something very important is missing and being left out.
Is biology missing a crucial piece of the life puzzle? Or is there something the scientists and postmodern philosophers don’t know about? What you need is a scientific discipline that fills all the gaps and place all the bits and pieces into a coherent, orderly explanation.
It’s a fact that there are lots of people who are fed up with the shallowness of the materialistic philosophy. They want a universe that’s alive and filled with meaning, purpose and divine emotion.
Hermetic science decodes the Book of Nature
The greatest book ever written – The Book of Nature – reveals the glory of God and life. And Hermetic science is devoted to reading the book and providing you with an accurate, concise account of the information it contains.
It’s where you'll have a close encounter with God, your soul, the universe and the astrology code that explains your existence and guides your development, now and in the future.
Hermeticism, and its great scientific discipline astrology, is devoted to understanding life – particularly human life – and the role played by astrological energies in the greatest story ever told.
If you don’t know who you are, you won’t know what you want to do, what you want to be and where you want to go; and Hermetic astrology is all about things that only you know about: you, your thought and feeling world, and life experience.
Hermetic astrology will answer every question that you have ever asked about yourself. Others have tried, but you don’t want generalizations based on trials, surveys and traditional teachings. You just want to know about you.
And Hermetic science starts and ends with you. It recognizes that in all existence there has never been and never will be anyone quite like you. It recognizes that you’re a special creation with a unique character, personality, intelligence type and skill-set; so were you born that way? Are you the master of your destiny? And can you change? As a human being you’ve got self-consciousness and that’s very special, but why?
From a personal perspective your existence and life experience are key issues and to answer the questions ‘Who am I and why do I exist?’ you'll need the facts of life.
The scientific method seeks to eliminate error in the search for factual life-information, but nature is tricky and errors result from the slightest misconception. There’s a lot riding on getting correct answers, and bias and prejudice can easily result in catastrophic misunderstanding.
If you believe misrepresentations disguised as facts or biased argument that denies other important facts chances are you'll make a mistake. And you won’t be able to get informed answers about who you are and why you exist until you’ve got all the facts systematically organized in a way that is easy to understand.
So, you search – navigating dangerous ideas and biased preconceptions – and with all the scientific facts and all the self-information there’s still the chance that your life is not what it seems.
You know that orthodox science hasn’t explained what human nature is or why you behave the way you do. Neuroscience hasn’t explained consciousness, how it’s produced, how the mind works or what a thought is.
There’s a world of scientific research and discovery, but it’s not uncommon for several leading experts to express different, conflicting opinions. And there’s a great deal of uncertainty too, so Hermetic science employs scientific methods to reduce the chance of error.
It recognizes that the special few whose occult insight can pierce the illusions of matter are the ones who can best describe what’s going on; and that their occult perceptions permit those with different intelligence types to learn the self-truths that can set them free.
In your search for personal truth the geneticist, neuroscientist, neo-Darwinist, evolutionary psychologist and religious authorities are providing you with orthodox, traditional answers and Hermetic science is inviting you to investigate the world of four-dimensional energies, astral substance, the soul and astrology.
Hermetic astrology is where ancient wisdom and modern science unite to become a new frontier in life-knowledge, self-information and personal truth.
