  Tarot Kickstarter: Emblemata Oracle
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 05-20-2026, 11:07 AM - Forum: Alchemical symbolism and imagery - No Replies

" I'm Nitasia Roland ~ I am a writer, poet, independent researcher, publisher of esoterica with Urania Press, and an artist/designer of 5 Tarot and 4 Oracle decks. I also publish with WEISER Books. This is my 13th Kickstarter campaign. I am excited to share that I have created a 60-card Oracle deck drawn from the Renaissance Emblems of Claude Paradin—the emblems that my previously published Tarot Emblemata deck could not contain. These are the emblems that have been waiting patiently since the original deck was created, and in gathering them into this Oracle, I have completed a project that brings the Emblemata project full circle."

  Baphomet: with videos
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 05-20-2026, 11:04 AM - Forum: Alchemical symbolism and imagery - No Replies

"Baphomet’s legacy intertwines with alchemy, particularly the search for the coveted philosopher’s stone—representing the quest for personal transformation. In alchemical traditions, achieving balance between opposites leads to spiritual enlightenment, and this echoes strongly in Baphomet’s ideology."

Kylie Lee Baker

"New from the author of The Keeper of Night comes a YA fantasy duology set in an alternate Tang Dynasty China, where a poor biracial girl with the ability to raise the dead gets caught up in the dangerous political games of the royal family. Zilan dreams of becoming a royal alchemist, of providing for her family by making alchemical gold and gems for the wealthy to eat in order to stay young forever. But for now, she's trapped in her impoverished village in southern China, practicing an illegal form of alchemy to keep food on the table—resurrecting the dead, for a price."

  Artist: Suzanne Treister
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 05-20-2026, 10:58 AM - Forum: Alchemical symbolism and imagery - No Replies

"Following her recent solo exhibition at Modern Art Oxford, the British artist Suzanne Treister, an early adopter of digital and web-based practices, is currently participating in the major group show ‘Pixel Pioneers’ at the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam. Taking the form of a tarot deck, a divination aid invented in the 15th century, her celebrated work HEXEN 2.0 (2009-2011) explores the often-shadowy Postwar origins of our contemporary digital terrain, from cybernetics to the early Internet, government surveillance to military research. Complemented by alchemical diagrams, photo-text pieces, a video, and a website, Treister’s tarot cards are, she has said, ‘meant to be used as a tool, allowing thought to take unexpected turns and directions, and perhaps result in “positive” action in the world.’

  Music: The Alchemical Theory
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 05-20-2026, 10:54 AM - Forum: Alchemical symbolism and imagery - No Replies

"The Alchemical Theory is a techno project founded in 2018 by three Italian producers brought together by a shared vision of sonic exploration. Emerging from a common passion for experimentation and sound design, the project merges their diverse artistic backgrounds into a cohesive and evolving identity...Influenced by mysticism, alchemical philosophy and the forces of nature, the project transforms symbolic and esoteric concepts into sonic narratives. Each release represents a step within a broader process of transformation, where sound becomes a medium for introspection and altered perception."

  Fiction: Inkpot Gods by Seanan McGuire
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 05-20-2026, 10:51 AM - Forum: Reviews and book notices - No Replies

"I have read most of what Seanan McGuire has written, including under her pen name Mira Grant, so of course I jumped at Netgalley’s offer of an ARC of Inkpot Gods, the fourth of her Alchemical Journeys novels (she also did a spin off of this series, writing some of the often referenced children’s books that alchemist Asphodel Deborah Baker used to share her studies in plain sight)."
