Description from the seller
1 volume in-8 full cloth, 238, light external wear, fresh interior - Pleasant copy.
“Arcanes Solaires” is an esoteric work published in the 20th century, which is part of the hermetic, symbolic and initiatory tradition.
Author: Jacques Breyer
(1922–1996)
French writer and esotericist
Founder of initiatory groups linked to a solar and chivalrous spirituality
Associated with currents close to the myth of Templar survival
Book content and themes
The title itself gives the key:
“Arcana” → hidden knowledge, initiatics
“Solar” → linked to the sun, symbol of light, knowledge and transformation
The book explores:
the symbolism of the sun as a spiritual principle
Initial lessons presented in a coded manner
a vision of the esoteric western tradition
references to hermeticism, alchemy and chivalrous orders
Main ideas
The sun is seen as a source of inner regeneration
Man can follow a path of spiritual elevation
Ancient traditions (Templars, hermeticism) contain hidden knowledge
Knowledge is transmitted in symbolic rather than literal form
