The Written Sources of the Esoteric Tradition

This section holds the written sources of the Western esoteric tradition: the Hermetic corpus, the alchemical and magical treatises, the grimoires, and the foundational works of modern occultism. It is the library behind much of the rest of the atlas, the books in which the systems of magic, alchemy and Kabbalah were set down.

The canonical scriptures of the world's religions (the Vedas, the Torah, the Gospels, the Quran, the Pali Canon and the rest), are gathered separately under the scripture category within Traditions & Paths; this section concentrates on the esoteric and occult literature.
