They say Hermetism is the reason why Transgenders today are allowed so much power in our society. Hermes, Hermaphrodites. There is of course a few conspiracy theories concerning the newest members of our population. That the elites at the top believe them to be the perfect form spoken of in some ancient texts from babylon (maybe?) or somewhere old.
I've only ever glanced at the lesser keys of Solomon, a few other transcriptions based off the Kundalini. From what I understand, these studies also have to do with our Third Eyes, or 6th sense.
If there is another way to open it without the near death experience this would probably contain the way. It isn't exactly for children though. It is an eastern philosophy similar to Chakra from what I gleaned. The point of which is to merge the energy somehow, tie it all together.
Either way from my own personal experiences in life It is not surprising that people are somehow twisting this concept into a form of body MUTILATIONS.

The Male and the Female is supposed to become one in order to gain more wisdom and understanding.
When their energies align properly and travels up your spine your supposed to gain a type of Divinity. Divination last I checked meant to KNOW something. People would Divine the meaning of dreams, things like that.
It all sounds like pseudo science bullscat I know believe me. I was not raised on this stuff and it all seems like smoke and mirror, hocus pocus, illusions and tricks to pry people away from their common sense and money to me still from time to time.
IF there is any truth that people are ruining their bodies because of tired ass mysticism. They need to know. It's another BRAIN hack. It is not supposed to be a medical experiment! You can marry the right and left parts of your brain without destroying your lives!
