  Open Access volumes: Ancient science and technology of colour.
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 05-21-2025, 05:55 PM - Forum: Reviews and book notices - No Replies

"This book derives from a 2022 conference. Through the exploration of ancient texts, the examination of archaeological data and the use of archaeometric analyses, the presenters at this conference addressed subjects related to the use and conceptualisation of colour in the cultures of ancient Western Asia, Egypt and the Graeco-Roman Mediterranean through various approaches. The contributions presented in that meeting have, with one exception, been collected and published by the conference organizers in an open access format in two consecutive issues — n. 13 (2022) and n. 14 (2023) — of the journal Technai."

  Sajah Popham: The School of Evolutionary Herbalism
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 05-21-2025, 05:51 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"Alchemy provides a unique perspective on health and disease that differs from conventional medicine. According to this philosophy, periods of sickness and health are as natural as the changing of the seasons. Alchemy views illness as an initiation. From this perspective, sickness provides you with the opportunity to heal underlying patterns and undergo transformation."

  The Complete Alchemical Symbol Guide
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 05-21-2025, 05:44 PM - Forum: Alchemical symbolism and imagery - No Replies

Useful Cheatsheet.

"Alchemy, the ancient philosophical and protoscientific tradition, employed a rich visual language of symbols to represent elements, compounds, processes, and philosophical concepts. These symbols served both practical and esoteric purposes: they functioned as shorthand notation in alchemical manuscripts and reflected the hermetic belief in correspondences between the macrocosm (universe) and microcosm (human body). Dating back to Hellenistic Egypt and flourishing across medieval Europe and the Islamic world, alchemical symbolism combines astronomical signs, geometric shapes, and pictographic representations to communicate the complex principles of alchemical work—from laboratory procedures to spiritual transformation."

"The story of Noah’s Ark in Genesis is more than just a tale of survival—it’s a profound allegory of inner transformation, spiritual awakening, and alchemical purification. In this deep Genesis Bible study, we explore the esoteric meaning of Noah, the Ark, the Great Flood, and how these symbols represent the soul’s journey toward enlightenment."
