Hey dear community, first of all I hope that you are all well and that you had a weekend that was full of interesting experiences! Today I would like to talk a little about alchemy and hope you are able to expand your knowledge.
Some pictures of different minerals can be seen here to match the alchemy and I would like to specifically address the meaning of the Latin phrase Solve et coagula in alchemy. It is one of the most important principles in alchemy and means as much as dissolve and coagulate and there are various principles in alchemy where the topic is of great importance and it has influenced the spiritual as well as the practice of the alchemy and often this principle is also associated with the occult side of alchemy. The core of this principle is relatively easy to understand and means that you first have to separate or solve something in order to add it strengthened again for a better result and a good example is the spiritual side which is strongly connected with the awakening and to reach enlightenment you first have to go through different stages. It is necessary to put subliminal thoughts or emotions aside during the first stages and to process them with yourself in reflection and you can look at it in such a way that you first have to separate the mind from the physical body, bring it to enlightenment during the different stages and then add it to the whole in the awakened state. It can also be interpreted in such a way that you first have to separate the deep inside of us in order to analyze it and then add it back to a whole and in old cultures similar views appear again and again that mean the same thing at the core. In alchemy, the most important principles is the view of the whole and this understanding is a relief when it comes to the understanding and in the practice of alchemy it is important to first separate the substances to analyze them and after the various work steps have been carried out, the completed substance can be added to the whole again in a better condition. The way of working in alchemy is usually based on this principle and the importance of this is reflected in numerous alchemical works of art or writings.
Thanks a lot for stopping by and I hope you could learn something new about alchemy! I captured these pictures with my Camera Sony Alpha 6000 plus 55-210 mm lens.
