Welcome to the Mysteries :

The Mysteries is an online resource for those interested in certain espteric studies: in particular those who seek a path that is best described as traditional. Apart from the New Age, Wicca or Neo-paganism that has become so prevalent there is very little in terms of Articles or Essays available online for those seeking traditional instruction and philosophy.

These articles are intended to be aids to learning and points of departure for your own study and development.
