Today we begin a group reading of John Michael Greer's first published book, which you may be surprised to learn was not about Peak Oil or the decline of industrial civilization but was instead solely about the topic of Magic and, in particular, the Hermetic Cabal Tradition. The two are not unrelated, however, for you can only really understand Greer's critique of the Mythology of Progress is you take into account the way that Progress is literally a magical symbol and therefore presupposes a much larger range of categories of thought than the Cartesian dichotomy of mind and matter would allow.
