“The Hermes image repeatedly enforces descents into personal and social underworlds of great power, into realms where one is lost without a hermetic guide who can recognize the importance of going into the darkness willingly, the importance of hearing the significances of the deathly side of things”
- William G. Doty

Hermes. Messenger of the Gods, God of communication and commerce, trickster and magician. Hermes who blesses all business and trade, bringing success and wealth. Hermes Psithyristis, the whisperer of dreams. And Hermes the psychopomp. God of liminality who, with great gentleness, guides the souls of the dead to the Underworld.

Hermes appears at the crux point of departure and crossing over, guiding the living through the difficult places too, across the mid-points of our existence, from one lifetime and identity to another.

Every print will be consecrated with rite VIII 1-63 from the Greek Magical Papyri, which compels Hermes to be your patron and support.

"Therefore, give me favour, form, beauty! ...
And let them give me gold and silver and every sustenance which will never fail. Preserve me always, through all eternity, from drugs and deceits,
Every slander and evil tongues, from every daemonic possession,
From every hatred of both gods and men. Let them give me favor,
And victory and business and prosperity,"
