Oh my! What a great introduction to alchemy! I truly enjoyed reading this and I’ve gained so much from it. I am excited to start my mystical and spiritual journey, in hope to transcend materialism and reach my full divine capacity.
There are tons of symbols in alchemy and that’s why it’s important that we look beyond the surface and the perceptions our eyes provides, we need to see what we don’t see to finally express our true form, our divinity.
This book really laid out all the foundations of so many different topics besides alchemy.
I was always interested ine Rosicrucianism, many Magi's uses there rituals and philosophy. But I wasnt able to find the original society, if there is/was one. This book is informative, but it give more of the history of the people that used alchemy instead of how to start the process (spiritually).
This introduction has three important alchemists as authors with academic degrees. These are excellent articles for a better understanding of alchemy in general.
Great doorway into the subject and philosophies of Alchemy. Didnt expect a step by step guide to creating the Philosophers Stone but fuck yeah ill take it.
Good heavens, a book on alchemy by people who actually take it seriously. I picked this up because it was free and I was hoping for a historical perspective. Nope. This is a book for the modern mystic ... not for me.
