The Kybalion

Kybalion (1908) is an occult classic of the New Thought movement that claims that mind and thought are the ultimate powers of the universe, and human beings can harness those primal forces – like thought, rhythm, and polarities – for health, wealth, and influence. 

• History buffs curious about the foundations of the New Age and self-help movements
• Esoteric thinkers seeking out the texts that shaped modern occultism
• Anyone wanting to expand their perspective on metaphysics and consciousness

Though published anonymously by “The Three Initiates,” there is strong evidence The Kybalion was authored by William Walker Atkinson – a prolific writer in the New Thought and early self-help movements of the late 1800s and early 1900s. Atkinson’s body of work emphasized spiritual self-empowerment through the mind, drawing on his studies of ancient Hermeticism and other esoteric traditions to make arcane knowledge accessible to the common person seeking self-improvement.
