Hermetic Qabalah (from Hebrew קַבָּלָה (qabalah) 'reception, accounting') is a Western esoteric ^↗ tradition involving mysticism ^↗ and the occult ^↗. It is the underlying philosophy and framework for magical societies such as the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, has inspired esoteric Masonic organizations such as the Societas Rosicruciana in Anglia ^↗, is a key element within the Thelemic orders, and is important to mystical-religious societies such as the Builders of the Adytum ^↗ and the Fellowship of the Rosy Cross ^↗.

Hermetic Qabalah arose from Christian Cabala ^↗, which itself was derived from Jewish Kabbalah ^↗, during the European Renaissance ^↗, becoming variously Esoteric Christian ^↗, non-Christian, or anti-Christian across its different schools in the modern era. It draws on a great many influences, most notably: Jewish Kabbalah ^↗, Western astrology ^↗, Alchemy ^↗, Pagan ^↗ religions, especially Egyptian and Greco-Roman, Neoplatonism ^↗, Hermeticism ^↗, and the symbolism of the tarot. Hermetic Qabalah differs from the Jewish form in being a more syncretic system; however, it shares many concepts with Jewish Kabbalah.
