Have you ever heard of the Severn Hermetic Principles?
Mystics, philosophers, and alchemists have passed down a set of universal laws about how reality actually works not just on the physical level, but mentally, emotionally, and spiritually for thousands of years.
What's known as the Seven Hermetic Principles are drawn from the ancient wisdom of Hermes Trismegistus.
When we understand these laws, and more importantly, live them, we move from reacting to life into consciously creating it. These same principles in Belief Coding® and other transformational modalities, provide a powerful underpinning for change in that they show how thoughts become form, energy becomes experience, and alignment creates miracles.
One question sits at the heart of this work:
Are you a REACTOR to life or a CREATOR of it?
More importantly - which would you rather be?
Below are introductions to each of these principles and how they can help you reclaim your personal power.
1 Mentalism: Everything Starts in the Mind
Your inner world shapes your outer world.
The reality is created in the mind and shaped by beliefs, perceptions, and imagination.
By changing your inner landscape healing patterns, rewriting subconscious programs - your external circumstances start to shift in response.
Change your thoughts → Change your frequency → Change your life
Creators work from the inside out.
Reactors allow the outside to dictate the inside.
2 Correspondence - “As Within, So Without”
Your life is a mirror.
Relationships, opportunities, and challenges attracted to your life reflect deeper internal truths. This is why real transformation must occur within, never by pounding any external circumstance into place but in some way aligning your inner state with what you are wanting.
Creators adjust their inner alignment.
Reactors wrestle with the reflection.
3 Vibration - Everything Is Energy
You are a vibrational being.
Every emotion, every belief, and every intention puts out a frequency that attracts similar energies back to you. As you raise your vibration through healing, through gratitude, through self-connection you are naturally drawn to higher-frequency experiences.
Manifestation isn't wishing - it’s tuning.
Creators choose their frequency with intention.
Reactors absorb whatever frequency surrounds them.
4 Polarity: Opposites Are One Spectrum
Confidence and insecurity… love and fear… abundance and scarcity.
They are not separate; they are just different degrees of the same energy.
This is the principle that teaches us to transmute, not resist. When you shift your focus, you shift the polarity - moving toward the experience you want without denying where you are.
Creators consciously move along the scale.
Reactors stay clamped at the present end.
5 Rhythm - Life Moves in Seasons
Everything has cycles.
Breath. Emotions. Relationships. Success. Healing.
Flowing with these rhythms, rather than forcing or resisting, cultivates resilience.
Emotional neutrality becomes a superpower that anchors you through the highs and lows.
Creators surf the waves.
Reactors get pulled under.
6 Cause & Effect - Nothing Is Random
Everything that happens has a cause in thought, behaviour, or energy.
Self-mastery is about being responsible and not remaining a victim. The moment you intentionally select the causes - your beliefs, your standards, your actions, you have some control over the consequences.
Creators become the cause.
Reactors blame the effect.
7 Gender - Balanced Energies Create Life
Within every one of us:
Masculine energy: action, logic, focus
Feminine energy: intuition, creativity, receptivity
When these are harmonised, we create from a place of alignment, not burnout or overwhelm.
Creators combine inspired vision with aligned action.
Reactors either push too hard or never start.
Which One Are You Choosing to Be?
These ancient principles aren't rules to memorise; they are keys that unlock your natural power.
When you live them:
✅ Limiting beliefs become fuel for growth
✅ Confidence replaces struggle
✅ Life starts responding to you differently
✅ Synchronicities become the norm
The shift is simple: REACTOR → CREATOR
From unconscious response to conscious choice. From surviving… to designing your life.
You are powerful. These principles are a reminder.
