  Video: Nigredo by Steve Seven
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 09-12-2024, 08:22 PM - Forum: Reviews and book notices - No Replies

Nigredo: A Full Initiation into Spiritual Alchemy. Foreword read by Steve Seven.

"This volume is based around the occult history of the toad which has been a common symbol for the shadow in alchemical systems throughout the centuries. There are many facets of the toad which has made it such a popular candidate for a symbol of the shadow. Most obviously the toad has very definite stages of metamorphosis from an egg, to tadpole and then into the toad proper. This life cycle lends itself to being an apt symbol of the transformation of the fires of alchemy. The present volume is brought to resolution with the closing chapters on the psychology of the so-called “evil eye” and the toad in Western alchemy. The rituals and exercises that are detailed and discussed in the closing pages of this book are part of a series of practical elements of the initiation and Work of spiritual alchemy and these will be extended and added to throughout this series."

  Video: Alchemy's Sacred Science
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 09-12-2024, 08:12 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"We challenge conventional wisdom by exploring the intriguing contradictions between alchemy and Greek philosophy. Discover how early Christian thinkers, like Bardaisan, rejected Greek syncretism and forged a unique alchemical path, distinct from Platonism and Aristotelianism."

  Cambridge, Corpus Christi College, MS 395
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 09-11-2024, 06:55 PM - Forum: Alchemy texts - No Replies

"CCCC MS 395 is a compilation of alchemical texts copied partly in the early fifteenth century and partly in the late fifteenth or early sixteenth century. It begins with a long text by Iohannes de Rupescissa OFM (Roqetaillade, d. c. 1362 - pseudo-Ramon Lull), his Liber de consideratione quintae essentiae. This section contains a few diagrams and coloured drawings, notably two full-page (ff. 49v-50r) illustrating lunaria grass."

  Breast milk

Short but quite interesting article on breast milk.

"Virgin’s milk was actually the “milk of Wisdom’ (Sophia, feminine creation life force of God and personified wisdom); a metaphor for the food of philosophers (the lovers of Sophia), Gnostics, and alchemists."

A Fool's Wisdom
Science Conspiracies & the Secret Art of Alchemy
By: Steven A. Young MSci PhD
Narrated by: Steven A. Young
Length: 8 hrs and 9 mins 


Attend to these words gentle soul, herein ye shall find a two-part alchemical discourse concerning the purity and veracity of scientific thought, separating the 'ugly truth' (science conspiracies) from the 'beautiful truth' (the secret art of Alchemy).
Part One takes aim at the post-modern secular worldview of Scientific Materialism or Scientism, rebuking and revealing the fatal flaws inherent in its core beliefs and cosmology, as well as the various conspiracies and occult shenanigans underlying physics, chemistry and medicine. It is said that 'adventure is an attitude towards discomfort', and to the theorists, statists and sophists take heed, there may be some discomfort ahead, as the pillars upon which you stand will be systematically dismantled and debunked through a combination of wit, fierce logic and timeless wisdom.
Part Two unveils the ancient Hermetic practice of Alchemy, also known as The Science of Transformation or The Art, a universal system of spiritual knowledge common to all mankind but hidden behind a mantle of domestic counter-intelligence and worthless academic theories. Alchemy is so empowering and enlightening that it is deemed unfit for public programming, and so it must be sought out by curious individuals who initiate themselves on the path.

  Free Book: Jewish Magic before Kabbalah
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 09-06-2024, 03:35 PM - Forum: Reviews and book notices - No Replies

"Magic culture is certainly fascinating. But what is it? What, in fact, are magic writings, magic artifacts?" Originally published in Hebrew in 2010, Jewish Magic Before the Rise of Kabbalah is a comprehensive study of early Jewish magic focusing on three major topics: Jewish magic inventiveness, the conflict with the culture it reflects, and the scientific study of both.
