I am hoping to continue to extend these offerings in 2025. One thing I have noticed, and this is common in many fields is that because the price of admission is free many people do not even practice what is taught in these courses! I have to say people charge for far less. Two examples I will give here as to the value, the first 'The Three Transformations' this course provided to us by [SixtySkills](https://sixtyskills.com/). This method is the most concise version of this practice you will find, I spent a lot of money back in 2012 getting to Thailand and learning directly from [Sifu Mark Rasmus](https://courses.perseusarcaneacademy.com/collection/sifu-mark-rasmus). I treasure this time, and one of the many skills he taught that week was the Three Transformations and the many ways you can use it and the many ways understanding this helps you understand other practices like those contained in Franz Bardon's Initiation into Hermetics far, far better. So, these courses, we provide free of charge, have far reaching value, but many just watch the introduction and assume as they understand it in theory that that is enough. The same for our physical training provided by Chris Radnedge and Craig Mallet, these guys have put in decades of time to learn from the best. What you are getting is the condensed results of that work. I have lived in Asia for 20 years and I am still a bit jealous of the teachers these guys have had and the material they have managed to embody. I say all this to say we provide these courses in the hope they will be practiced NOT collected. It is like having all the best books on how to be strong without doing any of the work. But the guy down the road who had no books, no equipment just got on and DID IT. This is the key in all of this, without the doing, the knowledge of energies, spirits, other worlds and dimensions is pretty meaningless in my opinion. Table of Contents - The Three Transformations: How to Convert Your Energies- Introduction to Magic- Movement Mastery through Kung Fu- Soaking the Mind into the Body- Clint Sabom - The First Three Steps of Initiation into Hermetics- Hermetic Fundamentals ## The Three Transformations: How to Convert Your Energies The ancient Chinese sages spoke of jing, chi and shen. The Hermeticists of old spoke of vital, astral and mental energies. Both spoke of ways to convert one energy into another. And the Three Transformations were born! Ever wonder how to do this exactly? Wonder no more. It turns out this is not some mysterious thing that exists only for the greatest of saints. All the details behind how to convert one of the basic natal energies into another, why you would want to perform the Three Transformation and the various issues involved are included in this SixtySkills course. This course details how to go from more gross, or physical, energies to more subtle energies and back again. It also discusses how to use these energies and what the various transformations do for you. Issue of passive, versus active, development and where to place the various energies are also brought up. While many consider these things to be a part of a long dead past, the reality is that none of this stuff ever left humanity. It has been here all along. That is not to say it is easy to do or something to be taken lightly. So, join SixtySkills today and learn how to engage in the fine art of the Three Transformations.

This course solves that issue by providing a firm foundation from which to build. Though this is an introduction that does not mean that it lacks depth. You might have heard of secret orders and mysterious groups with strange rituals, sordid psychic powers, aspiring mages and intellectuals with secret codes that only the initiate can begin to understand. They walk about with superhuman powers extracted from ancient tantric and hermetic texts, build fragrances that can make you fly, know words that can shatter the world when uttered, and govern all natural things under and above the sun. Some books spit out. You find them and read them. You learn the formulas and spells and incantations and meditations powerful enough to change the course of the world and bring back a dead pharaoh. You try it, not sure of what you are doing, but nothing ever happens. The premise of this course is that magic is the science of causing change according to awareness, and it trains silence, quietness and stillness as means to access and cultivate different states of consciousness and a gateway to connect with objects of perception where to operate changes. All cultural aspects, be they Hermetic, Egyptian, Buddhist, Tantric, or religious kinds of yoga, are ignored so we can focus directly on their purpose with integrity and effortlessness. You will find no lexicon you cannot master, no locks you cannot open, no paths barren by the elites. At the end of the thirteen sessions, magic will hold no mystery to you. It is at this time, that you can start practicing those books, that appeared to lead to nothing, with success.

These lessons provide a glimpse into what I would call genuine Kung Fu, offering insights into the fundamental principles and techniques that have been refined over centuries. Through detailed instructions and demonstrations, fundamental skills and start to improve the quality and awareness of your movement. Discover how to harness the full potential of your body, mind, and spirit as you embark on a journey to unlock your inner strength, vitality, and courage. This sample serves as an invitation to explore the depths of Kung Fu, empowering you to decide if you wish to delve further into this profound practice. *Perseus decided to invite Chris to share his work on our platform as being based in Asia with a background in various traditional martial arts we recognised the quality of his material. After speaking to Chris and discovering his martial history we were very keen to share his work here as he has both the depth of traditional training and the experience of working in the modern world as a medical practitioner. He knows how to make this material work and be understood for the western mind.* [See the Free Course](https://courses.perseusarcaneacademy.com/b/movement-mastery-through-kung-fu) ## Soaking the Mind into the Body Welcome to this free course, generously donated by Craig Mallett, focused on the practice of "soaking the mind into the body." In a recent interview with Perseus Arcane Academy, Craig shared insights into this approach, which explores the connection between mind and body in a practical, grounded way. This course is designed to give those curious about his work an introduction to his ideas and techniques. Whether you're exploring new ways to connect with yourself or simply interested in learning more, this is a great place to start. About Craig, in his own words... I started exploring self-cultivation methods in 2003. I have always had a burning curiosity to discover and explore myself and the world around me, starting with the immediate reality of my body. I had many periods where I did the ‘deep dive’ into arts that would help satiate this curiosity, including almost a decade training traditional internal arts with my first internal martial arts teacher, and another decade with a second Daoist teacher (see below for more details). Having a lot of experience with many different modern modalities, mixed with the more traditional studies I have undertaken, brings me a unique vantage point.  I specialize in teaching internal and external physical practices, helping people to explore and restore their relationship to their body and internal landscape, and how that landscape relates to the external world. I aim to teach methods that are sustainable and can be used by anyone from any culture, tradition or lineage, with the idea that these qualities can be explored as a layer over whatever activities each person enjoys pursuing. I have done my best to make my teachings of this complex topic as simple and clear as possible so they are accessible to everyone. I hold [classes](https://craigmallett.com/timetable/) on the Sunshine Coast (Australia) and teach [workshops](https://craigmallett.com/workshops) around Australia and internationally. I teach online through a variety of avenues, including an online or in person [student program](https://craigmallett.com/student-program/), as well as [online courses](https://craigmallett.com/online-courses/) for people who want to get a taste for a more specific part of the training. I am also trained in both traditional and modern [healing](https://craigmallett.com/private-consultation/#heal) methods, which, along with my significant history of working with the physical form, has given me a potent skill set for dealing with physical, emotional and mental troubles. I am in the progress of adding to my skills by studying Traditional Chinese and Daoist Medicine, along with Bazi, Feng Shui and more.

However, getting through the steps of *Initiation Into Hermetics* can prove to be difficult, arduous work for many.  It’s tempting to slack off on the exercises when life seems to get in the way.  It’s common to stay on one or two steps for years on end or indefinitely.  Most people that start the work never seem to get through the first three steps.  This class is designed to walk you through each step, and share with you my own experience of going through the first three steps.  Yes, there are shortcuts, hacks, and additional tips for achieving magickal equilibrium.  I share what has worked for me.  The class is simple to get through, but it gives you a core foundation to work with in your magickal ascension. I will remain available to all students via email to answer any questions you may have.  Come take this journey with me!

So this is the challenge for you, can you complete this regardless of your mind saying there is no need to? If you can complete this course, then you can go onto other courses here or elsewhere and know that you have what it takes to complete them and be successful. To follow through on a decision with actions. You see many collect information, equating knowing it with being able to do it. So sadly, even after decades of this approach they still have very little to show for it other than a mindset that says,*** 'I know it'***. Yes, but can they do any of it? Build the Foundation In this course you will develop all the foundation skills required for magic, meditation and energy work. You will touch each skill and get to know it. You will spend 2 weeks on every lesson. So, there is no rush, the course is 10 Lessons long and after lesson 1, all other lessons are released to you in 2-week increments.
