The 7 Hermetic Principles:

1. The principle of mentalism.
"The All is Mind; the Universe is Mental."

2. The principle of correspondence.
"As above, so below; as below, so above."

3. The principle of vibration.
"Nothing rests; everything moves; everything vibrates."

4. The principle of polarity.
"Everything is dual; everything has poles; everything has its pair of opposites; like and unlike are the same; opposites are identical in nature but different in degree; extremes meet; all truths are but half-truths; all paradoxes may be reconciled."

5. The principle of rhythm.
"Everything flows, out and in; everything has its tides; all things rise and fall; the pendulum-swing manifests in everything; the measure of the swing to the right is the measure of the swing to the left; rhythm compensates."

6. The principle of cause and effect.
"Every cause has its effect; every effect has its cause; everything happens according to law; chance is but a name for law not recognized; there are many planes of causation, but nothing escapes the law."

7. The principle of gender.
"Gender is in everything; everything has its masculine and feminine principles; gender manifests on all planes."
