About us
Western Esotericism Reading Club is a group for individuals who are interested in topics of Hermeticism, Solomonic magic, Kabbalah, and the like. Like most book clubs, we read the chosen book of the month, then we meet in-person to discuss it. Comprehension and understanding are enhanced by discussion in a spirit of mutual respect. Believers and practitioners are welcome—as are skeptics, but preaching, proselytizing, conspiracy theories, and culture war rhetoric are not. While Western Esotericism Reading Club stives to be as open as possible, only persons age 18 and over are permitted.
