"Rubedo is part of Alchemy of the Self, a series inspired by the alchemical process and its parallels to C. G. Jung’s concept of individuation. Rather than seeing transformation as a linear path toward a perfected self, I understand it as a process that moves in spirals. We return to our shadows, contradictions and inner conflicts again and again — each time with the possibility of meeting them differently. If Nigredo represents the encounter with what has been hidden or rejected, Rubedo explores what can emerge through its integration."

"From male caduco to altered consciousness: two Medici recipes through the lens of modern consciousness science"
History of Neurology
Open access
Published: 07 August 2026
"This article examines two therapeutic recipes from the collection of Anna Maria Luisa de’ Medici (1667–1743), the last Medici princess: the Polvere da Infantiglioli against the falling sickness (male caduco) and a preparation of amber essence. Together, they provide a case study of how early modern medicine approached sudden, reversible episodes of impaired awareness and responsiveness, phenomena that modern neurology situates at the intersection of epileptology and consciousness science."

Alchemy has never been one thing. It moves through spiritual, psycho emotional, and physical dimensions at once, treating body, soul, and spirit as a single work. This gathering traces ties using the Tabula Smaragdina, the Hermetic engraving long used to frame context, balance, and purification.
Experience guided imagery using the original Azoth drawing to activate personal transformation. This interactive lecture turns alchemical theory into practice and concludes with an open Q&A.

"The Dragon of the Alchemists by Frederick Carter is a striking exploration of one of alchemy’s most powerful and mysterious symbols: the dragon. Through vivid analysis of alchemical imagery, mythology and spiritual tradition, Carter reveals how the dragon represents the primal forces of nature, the struggle between spirit and matter, the transformative fire at the heart of the Great Work. Blending art, symbolism and esoteric insight, this book offers a compelling window into the hidden language of the alchemists. Ideal for newcomers drawn to the deeper meaning behind alchemical emblems and the inner journey of spiritual transformation."

| Google Arts & Culture: The Ripley Scroll |

"he Ripley Scroll is an extraordinary manuscript, nearly 6 metres long, that describes how to make the fabled Philosopher's Stone. It is named after George Ripley, a medieval canon of Bridlington Priory, Yorkshire, who reputedly wrote a text known as The Compound of Alchymy. The scroll is full of mystical symbolism. The precise meanings of the alchemical icons are not completely understood and it is clear that some of its imagery is deliberately obscure. Only those who have dedicated their lives to Alchemy have any hope of deciphering its secrets."

"The history of the Emerald Tablets is strange and beyond the belief of modern scientists. Their antiquity is stupendous, dating back some 36,000 years B.C. The author is Thoth, an Atlantean Priest-King who founded a colony in ancient Egypt, wrote the Emerald Tablets in his native Atlantean language which was translated by Dr. Michael Doreal. This edition of the Emerald Tablets is unique in that it includes both the translation and interpretation by Dr. Doreal. Because of the tablet's reference to the Egypt and sacred geometry they became a priority reference for those studying the Flower of Life and the Merkaba meditation."
