Keys

Some might keep the keys I gave

Some might feel their essence

Some might remember what I said

Some might feel them right away

Some might stay lost on their way

Some might find the door one day

裊裊炊煙

smoke curling up

[lilbunminx]

He sees red

That is all he sees

Without angles

He fights the flowers

The flowers cry

He cries

Not for dead flowers

His mind screams

The blue rivers

Turn murky

The monsters are coming

Pitter patter

Potter louder

Little feet run

Only for bodies to be eaten

He sees blue

When angels fly by

But cries

None are his

The feathers plucked

By him long ago

Witches chant

Cauldrons bubble

Ravens screech

To match the monsters

His flame is cold

His dark is warm

The shadows grow

Darkening the path

 

He sees purple

His fruit picked

Too soon

And rotted away

Too quick

He sees nothing

He no longer cries

He no longer fights

The monsters broke out

"Reflecting the Alchemist's Soul: Unveiling the Mysteries in 'The Mirror of Alchimy' by Roger Bacon"

In "The Mirror of Alchimy" Roger Bacon takes readers on a mesmerizing journey into the enigmatic world of alchemy, unraveling the veiled mysteries that have captivated seekers of esoteric knowledge for centuries. This seminal work, written in the late 16th century, serves as a timeless portal into the alchemical tradition, offering profound insights into the transformative processes of both the philosopher's stone and the adept's soul.

Bacon's narrative is a tapestry woven with allegorical threads, blending practical laboratory instructions with symbolic language that transcends the material realm. As the alchemist-author, Bacon speaks to readers across time, inviting them to contemplate the union of opposites, the refinement of base elements, and the pursuit of the elusive Elixir of Life.

The Mirror of Alchimy serves as a guide for those daring enough to tread the intricate labyrinth of spiritual transmutation. Bacon's prose, though rooted in the medieval context, resonates with universal themes— the quest for enlightenment, the cyclic nature of creation and destruction, and the pursuit of the divine within the earthly vessel.

At its core, this alchemical mirror reflects not only the external processes of laboratory experimentation but also the internal journey of self-discovery. Bacon intricately intertwines the art of transmutation with the science of the soul, urging the seeker to alchemize their own consciousness in tandem with their laboratory pursuits.

The brilliance of Bacon's work lies not only in its practicality but also in its poetic invocation of the alchemical quest. Each chapter unfolds like a mystical incantation, beckoning the reader to delve deeper into the alchemical opus. From the stages of calcination to coagulation, Bacon demystifies the alchemical process, making it accessible to both seasoned practitioners and those new to the alchemical tradition.

"The Mirror of Alchimy" is an illuminating testament to the enduring allure of alchemy—a profound exploration of the interconnectedness between the earthly and the celestial. As readers gaze into this alchemical mirror, they are not only confronted with the reflection of laboratory apparatus but also with the hidden recesses of their own spiritual landscape.

In a world where the pursuit of wisdom is often obscured by the mundane, Bacon's mirror serves as a timeless reminder that, like the alchemists of old, we are all engaged in the grand work of refining ourselves, transmuting the leaden aspects of our existence into the gold of inner enlightenment.

Roger Bacon's "The Mirror of Alchimy" is available in Amazon in paperback 12.99$ and hardcover 20.99$ editions.

Astrology as a Language of Spirit

I had a flash of insight today while going through my journal and astrological alignments during those dates. People often ask whether the planets are sending us energy, some external force acting upon us that we need to respond to, work with, or resist. That perspective might not be entirely wrong, but the more I study astrology and observe how the outer world mirrors the inner world, the more…
