  Daniela Boccassini: At the Roots of Jung’s Alchemy
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 08-13-2025, 12:06 AM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"I believe Jung’s visit to the Ravenna Baptistery may have played a role in reviving his interest in alchemy. If Jung could see, projected against the walls of the Neonian Baptistery, four non-existing “mosaic frescoes” of biblical events illustrating rebirth, this is likely because, on that afternoon of September 1932, his inner eye allowed him equally to see the baptismal font at the center of the building as a gnostic-alchemical krater filled with the water of life, and imself intent upon circumambulating it as if it were the central empty space of an ancient, blue-tinged, three-dimensional mandala."

  For Sale: The Alchemical Tarot Deck: FIRST EDITION
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 08-12-2025, 11:59 PM - Forum: Alchemical symbolism and imagery - No Replies

By Rosemary Ellen Guiley & Robert M. Place
1995 FIRST EDITION!
"These cards are wrapped in cellophane (plastic wrap) to protect them. They have NEVER been used by anyone. This is some highlighting in the book. These cards are a beautiful and magnetic find. Wonderful to add to your collection! I will note that there is a bit of water damage on the box in the top left corner due to a spill on the box they were stored in. No other damage."

  Prague – Things to do in the Street of Alchemists
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 08-12-2025, 11:58 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"Golden Lane Prague, or Zlatá Ulička, is a 16th-century alley that looks like something from a fairytale. It’s a cobbled lane tucked away in Prague Castle and is filled with colourful houses, shops, and museums. Often referred to as the Street of Alchemists, this is where soldiers and goldsmiths used to live. As well as many famous Prague residents like Franz Kafka."

  From Sophists to Alchemists to AI Coders
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 08-12-2025, 11:54 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

Dr. Marcus Doubtful, former quantum physicist turned philosopher of science & Dr. Andrew Sofist, a computational physicist and AI researcher who has just delivered a triumphant presentation on large language models' reasoning capabilities.


"Andrew: You're being dramatic, Marcus. We're not in crisis - we're making unprecedented progress.

Marcus: Are we? Or are we making the same mistake medieval alchemists made?

Andrew: I don't know what you're talking about. Can we stick to science please?

Marcus: Alchemists were the AI researchers of their time, Andrew. They performed elaborate experiments, followed complex procedures, occasionally achieved spectacular results. They could turn base metals into something that looked like gold, at least temporarily. They had impressive equipment, secretive methods, devoted followers.

Andrew: But that is pseudoscience..."

  Controlled Dreams in the Alchemical Tradition of Taoism
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 08-12-2025, 11:47 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

Alexey A. Maslov

"The paper focuses on the Taoist concept of “dreams”, which is considered from the point of view of the meditative practice of “realized dreams” or “controlled visions”. Famous Taoist masters Chen Tuan (10th cent.), Ma Danyang (12th cent.), Bai Yuchan (12th cent.) and many others implemented techniques of “controlled dreams” as a type of meditative alchemical practice: erasing the frontier between sleep and reality, long periods of vigil in a state of “almost sleep” lead to deactualization of the own “ego”."

  Quantum deception: turning water into wine
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 08-12-2025, 11:44 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"The Stockholm papyrus, a manuscript acquired (don’t ask how) by the Swedish vice-consul in Alexandria in 1828, is one of the richest sources of knowledge about the alchemical arts in antiquity. Thought to have been written around 300AD, it contains recipes for making dyes and preparing gemstones, pearls and metals. The papyrus offers the first inkling that some alchemical transformations were about deception. One recipe, for example, tells how to ‘give objects of copper the appearance of gold’."
