  Video: What Is The Alchemical Process Of Separation?
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 07-22-2025, 05:21 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"In this enlightening video, we will dive into the fascinating world of the alchemical process of separation. This essential stage in alchemy focuses on dividing a substance into its pure components, allowing for a clearer understanding of each part's role. We will discuss various techniques used in this process, such as filtration and distillation, which help in isolating the essential elements from impurities."

  Can other metals be turned into gold?
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 07-22-2025, 05:18 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"In pursuit of prestige and riches, wealthy people across medieval Europe worked in vain to transmute everyday metals into gold. Today, this process, known as chrysopoeia, is mostly dismissed as an alchemical dream. But is there any science to show that metals can be turned into gold?"

This lecture follows "The Secret of Azoth," and ties together all the previous lectures on Alchemy to explain how Hermes / Mercury symbolizes the heart secret of all the ancient religions.

There are also seven planetary metals that each correspond to different planets. They are lead, tin, iron, gold, copper, mercury, and silver. These elements were all commonly used in alchemical processes."

  Unveiling the Alchemical Path of Psychotherapy
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 07-22-2025, 05:07 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"Psychotherapy is often seen as a journey of self-discovery, healing, and transformation. But what if we could think of this journey through the lens of alchemy? Alchemy, the ancient practice of transforming base metals into gold, offers a vivid metaphor for the emotional and psychological changes that occur in therapy. By understanding psychotherapy as an alchemical process, we can unveil a powerful path to the soul."

  Video: Alchemy and the Sign of Cancer
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 07-22-2025, 05:03 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"The Alchemical Operation assigned to Cancer is Dissolution. Spiritually, Dissolution involves the breaking down of corrupted aspects of the personality, or personality structures which have been erected due to societal or family programming. These aspects live in the subconscious and can be difficult to access. Certain meditations and practices help to access these structures, which must at least be recognized if not totally dissolved, if personal growth is to occur."

  Brice Brown: Queer Alchemy
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 07-22-2025, 04:59 PM - Forum: Alchemical symbolism and imagery - No Replies

"The paper explores the concept of 'queer' through the lens of contemporary art, specifically examining the works of Brice Brown as representations of instability and transformation in identity. It argues against the normative associations often attached to queer identity and emphasizes the affective experience of engagement with art that reflects a constant state of flux. The discussion draws parallels between artistic practices and alchemical transformation, suggesting that both challenge fixed identities and invite viewers to consider their own processes of change."
