This episode we discuss two of the seven Hermetic Principles, the Principle of Polarity and the Principle of Rhythm.

The Principle of Polarity:
Everything is Dual; everything has poles; everything has its pair of opposites; like and unlike are the same; opposites are identical in nature, but different in degree; extremes meet; all truths are but half-truths; all paradoxes may be reconciled.

The Principle of Rhythm:
Everything flows, out and in; everything has its tides; all things rise and fall; the pendulum-swing manifests in everything; the measure of the swing to the right is the measure of the swing to the left; rhythm compensates.

- Does everything have an opposite?
- Is there anything that exists in pure stasis, without rhythm?
- Can there be a universal rhythm without polarity, and vice versa?
- If not, does that mean all polar bears can keep a beat?
