  Maria the Jewess & the Dawn of Chemistry
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 04-08-2025, 08:15 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"During the medieval era, Maria the Jewess was a pioneer in the field of alchemy. Her academic study and invention of essential lab equipment, technology, and theoretical innovations played a crucial role in shaping what would become the foundation of modern chemistry. She is also associated with the "Axiom of Maria," a philosophical principle in alchemy that emphasizes the unity of opposites and how all materials are “one” from a common ancestry."

  Mycenaean Alchemy
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 04-08-2025, 07:56 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - Replies (1)

"A mysterious craft from over 3,400 years ago is being brought to light in a rare exhibition at the Greek National Archaeological Museum in Athens. Dubbed “Mycenaean Alchemy” by experts, this ancient technique, dating back to the 14th century BC, allowed craftsmen to replicate the gleam of silver and gold, transforming everyday objects into precious treasures."

  Alchemical Shadow Work: Part 1 of 7
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 04-08-2025, 07:44 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"Calcination is the first stage of spiritual alchemy — the confrontation with illusion, the incineration of what is false, rigid, or self-protective. It is not symbolic. It is not poetic. It is the inner act of naming, questioning, and ultimately destroying the structures that keep us separate from what is real."

"Abu Musa Jabir Ibn Hayyan Al-Azdi, an innovative alchemist, philosopher, and scientist, transmuted alchemy into a structured empirical discipline, his legacy permeating laboratories, industries, and academia worldwide. Yet, his name remains obscured within dominant historical narratives, an unacknowledged architect of scientific progress."

  Video: Two AIs Discuss Modern Alchemy
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 04-08-2025, 07:40 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"This source examines the historical pursuit of alchemy, suggesting its true aim was the creation of exotic matter, a goal echoed in modern physics' quest. It traces alchemy's survival through patronage and its symbolic duality, linking its concepts to esoteric traditions and even Christian theology. The text then explores contemporary parallels through David Hudson's anomalous materials and the controversial "Red Mercury," drawing connections to Russian physicist Nikolai Kozyrev's work on time and torsion. Finally, the source investigates potential links between Nazi Germany's secret research, including the enigmatic "Bell" project and possible advancements in laser technology and unified field theories, to these long-standing alchemical and scientific endeavors, even considering the influence of esoteric figures within the Nazi regime. Our hosts update the book with the latest in the cutting-edge of research for exotic matter."
