i know what hermeticism is ive studied my fair share of it and hermetic derives from egyptain/greek god thoth. Thats why i completely disagree with the lbrp the chants are in hebrew it seems and they evoke archangels gabriel and micheal.. The golden dawn seems to go completely against what hermetic is. Which is polythiesm and pagan. Thoth told me himself that alot of his teachings have been altered and to not follow them and it shows by all these judeo christian type rituals... Yuck*

Hermeticism is not merely the teachings of Hermes Trismegistus. It sort of fell into obscurity for a while and was revived during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, at which point it became the sort of homogenous Western tradition it is today.

The Golden Dawn was founded a few hundred years after Abrahamic mysticism found its way into Hermeticism.

There actually are a LOT of Jewish rituals that non Jews just don't know about. Everytime we do a Seder we're doing a ritual. Our entire service is incredibly ritualistic. There are a lot of rituals we have, but none of them deal with magic. Folk magic in Judaism isn't accepted as being Halachic. It's just kind of done and a blind eye is turned to it. We're less likely to think of G-d than other religions when we want to create change. We don't really do the whole miracle thing.
