The Chakras and the Alchemical Stages - Paul Ferguson - 02-21-2026 "Chakras and alchemy map precisely. Root chakra (survival, grounding) = Nigredo (blackening, dissolution, ego death). Heart chakra (love, integration) = Citrinitas (yellowing, illumination, heart opening). Crown chakra (transcendence, unity) = Rubedo (reddening, completion, philosopher's stone). Eastern energy system and Western material transformation describe the same process: hierarchical ascent from base to transcendent, from matter to spirit, from ego to Self. Both are seven-stage models because seven is optimal granularity for modeling complete transformation. The convergence validates both: different cultures, same truth." https://mysticryst.com/blogs/the-mystic-journal/chakras-alchemical-stages-seven-centers-transformations |
