Description
The Opening of the Work
This is a story of existential malaise on to self-salvation. Through a deeply personal account inspired by her dream journals, the author tells of embarking upon a mysterious process that draws upon the archaic philosophy, and secrets of alchemy. The transformative experiences are substantiated by ancient hermetic quotes from the sages of this noble art.
The novice is at once attracted and bound as a magnet to the opening of a different world whereupon guardians of the unconscious are met. A host of characters put the seeker through his paces including the changing face of the ‘Anima Mundi’, knights, and dragons, a flighty fly, the imitable Great Eagle and even the grim reaper himself.
However in this gold mine of rhetoric, scrupulous is the step by step edification that takes the reader through the first grand stage of alchemy staying true to its typical correspondences of planetary bodies, metals, and chemical parallels. The inner journey sets out to illuminate with its lavish use of language and poetry plus corpus of artwork. In a time honoured tradition, unique discoveries are made, and unearthed, still relevant in our world today. The author takes a creative approach to issues of depression upon this journey of transformation and renewal, and might be of particular interest to those wishing to overcome a difficult childhood.
