  New Wiki: The Order of the Solar Temple
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 06-03-2025, 12:41 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"The OTS was a neo-Templar order, claiming to be a continuation of the Knights Templar, and incorporated an eclectic range of beliefs with aspects of Rosicrucianism, Theosophy, and New Age ideas. It was led by Joseph Di Mambro, with Luc Jouret as a spokesman and second in command. It was founded in 1984, in Geneva, Switzerland."

  Audiobook: Epistle on the Art of the Sun (Alexander)

"Alexander, in his Epistle on the Art of the Sun, speaking in the image and likeness of the world, briefly states that one should found their understanding on this demonstration: for it shows that the Art is derived from the creation of man, in whom all things exist."

  Free Book: The Book of Aquarius

"Does the Philosophers Stone exist? This book says it does. Not only that, but it tells you how to make one. A very informal book, the writer goes into great detail on the Philosophers Stone throughout history, the religious references, famous alchemists, and instructions on how to make the stone yourself."

  Karen Donnellan: Cosmic Flaccids, Supines, & Languids
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 06-03-2025, 12:15 PM - Forum: Alchemical symbolism and imagery - No Replies

"The platonic solids are 3D polyhedra where each face is identical. In alchemical texts each form is associated with one of the five elements. The tetrahedron represents fire; the hexahedron, earth; the octahedron, air; the icosahedron, water; and the dodecahedron, ether (combining fire, earth, air and water). The star tetrahedron contains two intersecting  tedrahedra. It is the atomic structure of silicon chip quartz used in computers to store memory, as well as the shape of our energetic vehicle known as a Merkaba."

  Mirrors made with spinning resin
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 06-03-2025, 12:07 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"For the telescope build in question, [Unnecessary Automation] needed a concave mirror. Trying to get that sort of shape with glass can be difficult. However, there’s such a thing as a “liquid mirror” where spinning fluid forms into a parabolic-like shape. Thus came the idea to spin liquid resin during curing to try and create a mirror with the right shape."

  Women in STEM: Middle Ages (I)
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 06-03-2025, 12:04 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"In the previous installment we concluded our journey through the Ancient Ages by introducing the first women who contributed to science, technology, engineering and mathematics. This time we move on to the Middle Ages where medicine was the one that benefited the most from the contributions made by women, both geographically and temporally distanced."

"Keng Hsien-Seng (around 975 A.D.)

A Chinese woman, daughter of an eminent scholar named Keng Chhien, she is described by Wu Shu in his writings on science as a woman who from a young age was intelligent and liked to read books. She was also fond of writing, wrote poetry worthy of compliments, but who was also familiar with Taoist techniques and who could control spirits. She became an expert in yellow and white alchemy with many other powerful, mysterious and incomprehensible transformations. Wu Shu says that no one knew how she obtained all this knowledge."

  Elements: Chaos, Order and the Five Elemental Forces
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 06-03-2025, 12:01 PM - Forum: Reviews and book notices - Replies (1)

"Elements is an eclectic, evocative, and resoundingly beautiful treasury of imagery exploring depictions of the elemental forces that reveal their profound significance to ancient philosophers, alchemists, and astrologers, and modern artists, photographers, and scientists alike. Expertly curated, themed, and paired by image alchemist Stephen Ellcock, modern and visionary images are juxtaposed with the ancient and arcane, and the creative power of the elements is contrasted with the disastrous. Following physician and occultist Robert Fludd's (1574-1637) order of the elements, Ellcock guides readers through a remarkable selection of images, ascending from earth through water, air, and fire before culminating in the most spiritual of the elements, celestial aether."
