"Decode the mysteries of the Aurora Consurgens, one of medieval Europe's most enigmatic alchemical manuscripts, falsely attributed to Thomas Aquinas and preserved in the Zentralbibliothek Zürich as Codex Rhenoviensis 172. In this deeply analytical episode of The Alchemical Codex, we undertake a rigorous historical and philological examination of this 13th-century text that weaves together Christian mystical theology with hermetic alchemical symbolism. Discover the true origins of this manuscript, its relationship to Cistercian contemplative practice, and its sophisticated integration of the Song of Songs with the three-stage alchemical process: Nigredo, Albedo, and Rubedo."
