The author also provides the reader with a series of exercises, which take the aspirant well beyond the scope of intellectual theory by actively involving the various levels of the personality in the practical application of the alchemical wisdom. It reveals a living tradition, whose aim is real transformation, not the mere accumulation of facts. </span></p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p><b><span style="font-family: Arial;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0521631858/c9mal-20"><img loading="lazy" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-2386" src="https://www.alchemylab.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/imag.jpg" alt="" width="100" height="140" /></a>Dictionary of Alchemical Imagery</span></b></p> <p><span style="font-family: Arial;">This dictionary documents the rich storehouse of alchemical symbolism from the early centuries AD to the late twentieth century, making it available for the use of historians of literary culture, philosophy, science and the visual arts, as well as for those readers with an interest in alchemy and Hermeticism.

Alchemy Unveiled describes the tribulations that a human being has to pass through in order to purify these three bodies. However, to achieve the level of an Alchemist requires daily study and strict daily mental, astral and physical exercises for many lifetimes. Alchemy Unveiled will lead the reader on a journey of a complete purification of the body, soul and spirit, and for the first time the mystery of the Philosopher’s Stone is openly explained. <span style="font-size: medium;"><i> Paperback – 184 pages (April 1997) Merkur Pub Co.
