Alchemists

The Alchemists

far from the present, in the time
In the golden ascendant, arcane,
the mystical frater and soror find
the precious aurum, pure flame.

stream against the glass rest
male soul and female spirit may
seek not only the alkahest,
but the aurum vulgi of the day.

night's subterranean coin brights
an ancient aurum philosophicum,
of sure golden illumination lights
cracked from the celestial Aum.

sulfur and quicksilver so fuse
in the depths of earth's magma,
a sleeping deity, stars amuse
and the bellows claim 'magna'.

the sick metals are cured from past
a glowing stone, beauty kinds,
far from cities and nations at last
in the untamed birdsong finds.

the alchemists and their love
joined spiritual body and being,
in rites of transmutation to above
feeling their warmth ascending.

calcination, precise distillation
in the vas hermitca most viewed,
mercurial essence, sublimation
by sacred fire was then renewed.

The pentagram has been a holy protective symbol of many ancient religions, long before the early Christian church propaganda declared it to be a symbol of pagan evil. Some sources claim if it is displayed point up it symbolizes the power of higher spirit over the flesh; point down, the desires of flesh over the divine.

Brilliant! Thank you! :) But remember: true alchemy is that of the heart. All else means nothing without it.

I think, atleast that's what i've learned from home is that if the pentagram is pointed up it stance for the higher powers of good(fire,water,wind,earth and the spirit) and pointed down the higher powers of evil(blood,death,flesh and 2 others I can't remember)

I love it! I love it! This is my kind of music. I really do like the sound of the Uilleann pipes and the simbology you used to combine the music. Gracias, Sandra, desde Guatemala. :)
