There is a principle far older than modern science yet more relevant now than ever. Echoing across ancient scrolls and etched into the very fabric of Hermetic philosophy is a truth that continues to unravel the veil of our perceived reality:


"The All is Mind; the Universe is Mental" - The Kybalion


What does it mean to say the universe is mental? It means that everything we see, feel, and interact with, from galaxies to grains of sand, arises not from matter, but from consciousness itself?

This Hermetic axiom is not a metaphor, it is a lens, a key that unlocks a new way of seeing reality and it’s now being echoed in the language of modern quantum physics.



From the Ancient Hermetists to the Quantum Scientists


The Hermetic Principle of Mentalism teaches that the source of all creation is a Universal Mind and that matter, energy, space, and even time arise from this mind, as thoughts within it.


Fast forward millennia, and we find science brushing up against this mystical truth. The Double Slit Experiment, one of the most baffling quantum discoveries, revealed that particles behave differently depending on whether they are being observed. When unobserved, they exist in a wave of infinite possibilities. When observed, they collapse into a fixed state, a particle, a "thing".


Your observation changes reality! This is not philosophy, this is is measurable science. In other words, consciousness influences form; perception collapses potential into reality. Just as Hermetic teachings have always whispered, mind precedes matter.



Time, a Beautiful Illusion


If the universe is mental, then time, too, is not fixed or linear. Hermetic teachings and quantum theories both suggest that time is non-linear, more like a spiral or a web than a straight line. All "moments" are happening simultaneously, layered within different frequencies of consciousness.


We speak of past lives, but truly, they are not "past", they are parallel realities, running alongside this one. Just as multiple browser tabs are open on a computer, each real, each distinct, yet only one is visible at a time. Your soul spans dimensions, experiencing multiple lifetimes, versions, and timelines now. The present moment is not a dot between two lines...it is the entire field. In other words, everything is happening now!



Creation Responds to You


This brings us to one of the most empowering truths hidden in both Hermetic philosophy and quantum science:


"You are not a passive observer of life.

you are a participant in the action of creation".


What you observe, expect, and emotionally charge, you influence. Your attention is creative, your beliefs become architecture, your inner world is mirrored in the outer one, not because the universe is reflecting matter, but because it is reflecting mind. This is why shifting your conscious awareness can shift your reality and this is why transformation within changes the world without.



Tapping Into Other Selves Through Regression Therapy


This multidimensional understanding is at the core of Past Life Regression Therapy. When we enter an altered state of consciousness, through Past Life Regression Therapy, QHHT, or deep meditative regression, we pierce the veil between timelines. What emerges is not a memory in the traditional sense, but a lived experience from another frequency of existence.


In these moments, we realize that we are not only this physical self, with its narratives, identities, and wounds, but we are so much more, a vast, eternal consciousness moving through multiple expressions, learning, evolving, remembering.


Regression therapy helps us to access these other selves and integrate their wisdom, and when we heal one, we ripple healing through all.



Remembering the Dreamer Within the Dream


When we say "the universe is mental", we are not reducing it to mere imagination, but we are elevating it to intelligent design, made of thought, will, and intention. It is not materialism that defines us, but consciousness in motion.


And so, the invitation is this:

. What are you observing?

. What beliefs are shaping your field?

. Which timelines are you feeding with your attention?

. What inner architecture are you ready to redesign?


The universe, in its essence is within you, flowing through your thoughts, emotions, and awareness like a dream waiting for the dreamer to awaken. You are the universe, becoming aware of itself. The moment you remember this, everything begins to shift.
