The Principle of Correspondence
“As Above, So Below; As Within, So Without; As the Universe, So the
Soul…”
This phrase is very common in Hermetic
philosophy. It basically means that everything – all of the planes of
existence – are connected and in correspondence. The macrocosm is
found in the microcosm and vice versa – solar systems,
societies and life on Earth reflects the same thing on the cellular and atomic
level.
The 7 Hermetic Principles As
Above So Below
What this law means in an everyday setting is that
whatever we do on the micro level so will we do on the macro level. Even the
tiniest of habits influence the grand scheme of our behaviour. As we do
anything, so will we do everything. If you slack off in one area of your life,
the others will also suffer.
Even more, the outer world is a reflection
of our inner world. The thoughts and images we hold in our consciousness
begin to subconsciously manifest themselves in our external circumstances. The
mind takes everything as it is – it does not distinguish the substantial from
the real and begins to re-create exactly that which we focus on the most.
