"The Secret of the Golden Flower (Taiyi Jinhua Zongzhi 太乙金華宗旨), a Qing dynasty spirit-writing (fuji扶乩) text, is widely known through the Wilhelm–Jung translation lineage, where jinhua 金華 is rendered as “Golden Flower” and read as mandala-like symbolism. Based on a close reading of the Daozang Jiyao 道藏輯要version, this article argues that in the Chinese text jinhua is not primarily a floral image but a technical and experiential term for luminosity in Daoist inner-alchemical cultivation."

"Philippus Aureolus Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim (1493-1541)—known as Paracelsus—was the most revolutionary physician of the Renaissance. He transformed both medicine and alchemy, creating iatrochemistry (medical chemistry) and establishing the principle that alchemy's true purpose is healing, not making gold."

"An extraordinary alchemical tarot born from the visionary art of Wally Van De Velde (Thobra). Originally painted between 1975 and 1978, these 22 luminous works on wood blend mysticism, astrology, and esoteric symbolism into a spiritual masterpiece. Reproduced here for the first time in a limited, numbered edition of 100 copies, this deck captures the essence of the artist’s original paintings — philosophical, strange, and deeply initiatory."
