"This innovative Tarot deck and comprehensive guidebook offer a seamless integration of Kabbalistic, alchemical, and Judeo-Christian mysticism and provide a scholarly synthesis of occult knowledge and Rosicrucian mysteries. It contains a detailed examination of the symbolism within the Tarot and elucidates the connections between the Tarot and its associations with the Hebrew alphabet contained in the Sefer Yetzirah. It traces the separate evolutions of Alchemy, the Kabbalah, and Tarot and demonstrates how they were united into a single and complete system of mysticism."

E-book awaited.

Paracelsian Moments: Science, Medicine, and Astrology in Early Modern Europe

Edited by: Gerhild Scholz Williams and Charles D. Gunnoe Jr.

Originally published by Penn State University Press 2003.

"Scientific ideas inspired by religious, magical, and alchemical themes competed alongside traditional Aristotelian science and the emerging mechanical philosophy in the early modern era. At the center of this ferment was a quirky and creative German physician, Paracelsus, whose religious-alchemical worldview served as an inspiration for countless scientific innovators. This collection is about Paracelsus and the wide range of issues he explored, and ones taken up by many who were directly or indirectly affected by the same mental universe that sustained his thought and writings. This volume includes strong contextual studies on Paracelsianism and the larger cultural history of early modern science, including groundbreaking studies on Robert Boyle, François Rabelais, Giovanni Pico della Mirandola, and Johannes Praetorius."

"A collection of 38 herbal manuscripts have remained all but hidden to scholars in the shadow of
the Italian Alps. Despite several texts analyzing specific texts (Leporace, 1952, Lupo 1982,
Ragazzini 1983, Toresella 1985, Pezzella 2007 and Bruzzone 2015, 2019) and one pioneering
work which synthesizes a large portion of them as united in the corpus (Segre 2000), the
“alchemical herbal tradition” has so far escaped examination through methodologies employed
in the history of science, medicine and magic."

"...to enable you to study this science of alchemy, I will lend you a book which you may read and study; and if you keep your intuitional faculties open and your mind unclouded, I will be invisibly near you and assist you to understand the meaning of the secret symbols contained therein." With these words Theodorus handed me a book containing a number of coloured plates with symbols and signs. It was an old book, and its title was "The Secret Symbols of the Rosicrucians of the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries."

""The Secret of the Golden Flower," known in its native Chinese as the T’ ai I Chin Hua Tsung Chih can be traced back to the seventeenth century when it was printed on wooden tablets. However, the oral tradition goes all the way back to the eighth century during the T’ang period where its teachings can be found within the Religion of the Golden Elixir of Life (Chin-tan-chiao). The text is attributed to the Taoist master Lü Dongbin, also known as Lü-tsu or Lü the Guest of the Cavern, who lived at the end of the eighth century and who would be later counted among the eight immortals of Chinese folklore."
