Greetings All!

In Part III, we're exploring alchemy, which is the precursor of modern chemistry.

Alchemy got its name from the Land of Khem, which we now call Ancient Egypt.

Many great scientists have studied and practiced the art of alchemy, such as Isaac Newton. However, they generally kept this information hidden from the masses, especially religious authorities, as alchemy was forbidden as heretical for a very long time. Those caught with alchemical texts, or labs, or passing along knowledge of alchemy, were often tortured and murdered by the "authorities" of the day. One such person that comes to mind was Giordano Bruno, a great mind that taught us much, who was burned at the stake as a heretic in 1600 during the Inquisition.

For these reasons, the alchemists took to using code and symbolism to share their knowledge between themselves throughout the middle ages and even into more recent times.

Now, in our current time, this time of revealing, burning people at the stake is somewhat frowned upon, and this information is being released to those with an interest to learn of it.

Alchemists created all kinds of tinctures and unctions, not unlike folk remedies, but their underlying mission was to understand the "mechanics" of the cycles of creation - not the transmutation of lead to gold alone, as many texts and articles contend. And they did a pretty good job, might I add!

The first rule, or law, of alchemy is that the "grosser" material is always, without fail, comprised of the "finer" material. The grosser cannot exist without the finer. Therefore, it holds, that the power of creation is within the "finer". That's profound, when you stop and think about it!

Recently, an anonymous author has laid bare the alchemical secrets of producing the Philospher's Stone, in keeping with these revealing times. Kudos to the author...

I will say that some of the stuff in the document, for which I'll provide a link to the downloaded PDF below, may seem "dark" to some readers. Understandable. However, I will say that the energy of creation does not care how it is used, it has no bias, it is like clay that can - and does - create anything and everything. This goes back to what we learned in The Kybalion: The all is of the ALL.

It is our individual perception alone that provides bias, food for thought... :)
