Alchemy: The Royal Science of Self Transformation

The 12 labors of Hercules are symbols, of the trials and initiations of the Soul as it incarnates into the physical dimension. Hercules is the Sun as the Sun voyages through the 12 signs it is said to triumph or conquer them. At certain times during the year, the Sun seems to be conquered by the forces of darkness. This is played out in our individual lives when we are tempted by our desire and fall into them. We lose the bliss of Spring. Spring always is a symbol of bliss and happiness and fertility. These forces can be awakened and renewed in each individual, Each individual is a microcosm of the macrocosm. The 12 labors of Hercules, as well as the 12 apostles, relate to inner soul qualities that are activated through our life.

The 12 stages of initiation are each attributed to an alchemical change within. The 12 stages are also accompanied by 7 phases. 12 and 7 are the key numbers. 12 is God or creator, the intelligence, 7 is the force, the creations the perfection or emanation of the 12


Aries rules Calcination, this is the process of purification through fire. A metal or substance is heated up to a high temperature without melting it. This is used to purify the material and remove impurities through a subtle flame. This happens to us when we become aware of the constant inner fire of consciousness. This inner I Am is the power of Aries, the individuality of the Soul. It is the first that emanates from the Father it is cardinal fire. When we become aware that we are a soul inside of a body and become aware of our true self, then we begin the calcination process.
The second Alchemical process is Coagulation. Coagulation is ruled by the zodiac sign Taurus. When our consciousness is refined, we are completely identified with the eternal self. This inner awareness becomes unmistakable and unshakable. Taurus is the bull we become firm in our self-knowledge. Aries is I AM and Taurus is I have. We become aware of the inner word within and that every word we emanate is an act of creation. The air is the masculine spirit the throat is feminine. This is is why the throat resembles the female sexual organ. With Taurus we become fixed in our consciousness we no longer identify with the body. As Hercules goes through the labors he initiates changes within. The soul qualities are awakened. Each quality is like a petal on a flower. The heart chakra has 12 petals. Once each one is awakened and we regain our inner qualities. Each of the 12 qualities is related to a cranial nerve. The 12 nerves regulate the 12 processes of the body, there are 12 systems each in are refined and perfected through the great work of alchemy.

Fixation is the third alchemical process within and is ruled by Gemini.
This occurs when a metal or substance is transformed into an uncomputable form. The heat was applied in calcination and coagulation. Taurus finally creates a perfected form. This process is ruled by Gemini the human or adam Kadmon the perfect man or woman. This is when the inner change begins to manifest in our actions and our outer world rather than just within. We begin to separate the observer form the observed. We see life form the third person perspective and begin to practice the art of self observation. This allows us to have a crystallized personal center of consciousness that is no longer distributed among the mechanical modes of the mind.

The 4th Stage of the Alchemical Process is Ruled by cancer and is called dissolution. Similar to the Crab. withdrawing into its shell we begin to withdraw from the external world and go within. This is where we begin to have inner experiences in the astral plane and begin to awaken our composure on the inner planes of existence. Normally we are so to living our life with our senses pointing outward and our outer realities. Cancer is ruled by the moon is our intuition and our imagination, When this becomes activated we become awakened in the astral plane. Once we are here we can begin purifying our subconscious minds and receiving guidance format the inner planes that hero points us in the right direction.

The 5th Stage of the Alchemical Process is Ruled By Leo the Lion. This phase is related to Digestion. Leo is the will of the being. Through this stage of the Alchemical process, one masters the will and utilizes it to overcome the lion. The lion is tamed and one becomes a king or queen of the inner kingdom. We will be further discussing this process in a future post.

The One in Three: The Eternal Rays of Deity

The entire substratum of existence lies upon the foundation of the supernal 3. The Father, the Mother and the Child. We see two polarities male and female which split from the one unified duality. When these come to together on a macrocosmic level a third is created. This is the the consciousness the Christ. The first begotten. From this consciousness the third aspect all things are created. The three function as one. It is not that it is three separate Gods, or that God is three different people. The three coexist eternally and as one. In the Eastern System we have the three eternals: Bhagwan the supreme personality or God, The world,[matter or prakrit], and finally the unlimited manifest multiplicity of soul AKA children of God.

On a microcosmic level the Father and the Mother come together and the third that is manifested is the child, on an internal level it is knowledge. When love and wisdom come together the two separate eternal unified rays of deity then they manifest the third principle. knowledge or to know. The knowledge ofg ood and evil or of polarity. That is to be the many of the One. The separate conscious beings that are the offspring of the union of the two divine polairites or the father and mother,

The sky can be seen as the Father, and the Earth or Matter the Mother, the Sky impregnates the Earth and the third principle which is the cosmos in and of itself self or the conscious embodied individual beings being the third aspect. Aleph the first Hebrew letter represents air or space, but on a more subtle level. The Akash, the emanation from counterspace. This space or spirit moved upon creation and manifest myriads of beings. The beings exist in the space embodied or intombed in matter to be formed and fermented to continue there maturation process in the higher realms of existence. The eternal Father and Mother principles are the substratum of estsience. Right now if we turn our attention within we can commune with the Father who is in Secret or the Ancient of Days Kether, the inner space within. The Mother is our surroundings or the field. The field is the 5 elements, ether, fire, air, water, earth, as well as our thoughts, our feelings, and the people around us as well all makes up the field of the our existence. Krishna in the Bhagavad Gita says one who knows the knower and the field have true knowledge, to have knowledge of the invisible self operating the physical human body. The child of our life is our experience as an individual child of light with a personal point of consciousness or a eternal center which the entity or the knower operates from that point on. Before this individualized conscious state the being was submerged in the bosom of the Eternal Creator as an individualized essence or seed. The essence descends and manifest as beings in material realm to gain knowledge of good and evil and to develop love and wisdom out of the animalistic nature. From this realm we go to higher realms or lower realms depending on what is needed to reunited the soul from whence it came. Here on the physical plane we have love for our Father there is a yearning. We cherish deeply the love of our mother or mother figures. These are the physical manifestations of the invisible Father and Mother the supernal creators. In the Easter system it is Krishna and Radharani the eternal couple which produce all other beings. We have Krishna the one, Rada the second, and the souls the third or child principle

In our day to day life the conscious mind manifest as the child of the subconscious mind being impregnated by the superconscious mind or the father hence the symbol of the immaculate conception. The light of invisible father is always creating visible beings with the help of his eternal spouse Mary Magdalene, Rafarani, Isis etc.

The 4 States of Consiousness

The Greeks knew about the 4 states of consciousness. The bible is based of Greek and Eastern Mysticism. It speaks in code and is symbolic in nature. They designated different levels of consciousness to the 4 elements. The 4 Tattvas of the Eastern Wisdom and the Gods of the elements are well known throughout all traditions. The bible is an alchemical spitual manual that shows how humans go through spiritual evolution into different states of consciousness.

Earth , Alpha ,Body

Water, beta, Emotions

Air, theta, Thoughts

Fire ,Delta , Will

These are the states of consciousness we go through when we are alert and wake we are in alpha and beta, when we are in the flow of thought and disengage from conscious task and go on auto pilot we enter theta, delta is deep sleep. Different levels of information can be retrieved from these different levels of consciousness. The yogi or mage can put his or her self in these states of consciousness at will. Mediation gives us access to these slower rates of consciousness, deep sleep delta being the slowest brain waves.

The bible goes deep into the deeper layers of consciousness using the elements as an allegory for the states of consciousness.

We see Jesus walking on water, or saying to meet me in the clouds or the air level of consciousness. This is when we access the silent mind. John the Baptist says , “I baptize with you water but the one whose shoes I am unworthy to unbuckle baptizes with fire and the holy spirit” in reference to smaadi or the highest state of consciousness bring the deepless state to the waking state. We meet Jesus “coming in the clouds”. This is all allegory referencing the different levels of consciousness we can reach.

It is good to go to sleep with a question in mind or a problem to solve and allow the the theta mind set to free flow thoughts and ideas. We can enter this state through relaxation and rhythmic breathing. We enter the vigil state which is right before we fall asleep. We can utilize this state of consciousness for spiritual insight as long as we have intention dn are aware and receptive to what we are seeking.

The Power of Chanting the Holy Names

Power of Chanting God Name Stories Collection - MoralStories26.com

It is said in this age of kali yuga or in other words the winter of our conscious cycle. The best way to purification and illumination is to chant the holy names of God. We know that all things are cycles and that spring, summer,fall and winter also happen in ages of 24,000 years. In the Gold age or the summer age man and woman could meditate on the supreme lord and reach illumination. Now in the winter age we only live until 100 years, have many materialistic responsibilities and no way to practice accestisic, or to stay absorbed in meditation for long period of time. It is said that in this age the power of singing he glories of the lord, chanting his names, and dwelling on the pastimes of the lord are able to elevate the soul from its material hankering.

All true esoteric religious traditions know the fact that the soul has descended in or become dense and is now in the material nature. The material nature nullifies the power of the spirit and makes the soul interact through a mortal vessel. This mortal vessel the material body is how we interact here in the physical realm and we are subject to its laws. The body can get hurt it also can cause pain to others hence the crimes of this world. While the soul in incarnated in the material plane it us under the modes of the three gunas. We are either active, passive or neutral. We are either under passion, ignorance , or in the mode of goodness. As humans we have faults and sense hankerings. Perhaps we are above certain sense pleasure and desires but we are bitter and apathetic, perhaps we are in bigotry and feel full of pride. Nevertheless these are the symptoms of the material nature. The goal of any tradition is to link the individual soul with its source or place of causation. The best most efficient way in this age of winter and confusion is to chant the holy name of God, sing the praises and glories of the Solar christic intelligence. Weather you choose to use the name Christ, Jesus, Allah, Vishnu matters not, are all capable of producing the same results because they are all names that refer to the one and only supreme cause and intelligent eternal being.

As material entities our souls are subject to the law of time, the mantras or name of God such as alah alah, or yeshua, or hare krishna hare krishna krishna krishna hare hare hare rama hare rama rama rama hare hare come from the transcendental realms of eternity. Sound is more subtle than the 4 elements, fire water, earth and air hence it is able to put them in a mental state and control them. The sound produce vibrations of love and supreme wisdom and allow the consciousness to rise above the material sense plaine.

Listening and reading the pastimes of the solar God heroes such as Jesus in the new testament as well as Krishna in the bhagavad gita are all ways to help elevate the mind into transcendental states of consciousness. They activate the right hemisphere of the brain which is the receptive feminine side. The conscious mind can use the sacred stories to help formulate an image and then the subconscious mind digest the symbols and you are givin the true meaning through revelation. Listening to the story of Jesus walking in water and stilling the storm, or Krishna directing arjuna on the battlefield produce transcendental thoughts in the brain and allow one experience the higher relaties and transcendental realms beyond the five senses.

If one puts aside time for chanting at least 1 hour a day and or chants with full devotion the holy names of the lord one can surely be purified of bad habits and sinful behavior that produces pain. We take our monkey mind and thoughts that we carry day to day and replace them with the mantra that develops concentration on the causal reality. When we say the name of the prime creator we are putting our energy and focus in respiration we begin to align tize our aurus with the positive vibrations of the names. The names gave power.. Rama, Krishna, Yeshua Christ, Allah, Om VIshnu, OM HAri, hallelujah aglah, yod he vav he, are all names referring to the supreme intelligent cause. When we speak the name or chant we areenvoking the power and intelligence of Christ into our voice and body.

When we do the mantra out loud we are producing physical effects, when we do the mantra internally without external voice and sound we are making effects on the astral body and mental body. The mantra is more powerful and cleansing when done inside our minds.

The Three States of Consciousness

Adi Shankara Quote: The witness of the three states of co...

Waking, dreaming , and deep sleep. We the witnesses are beyond these states of consciousness. We have participated in them sense we got our first taste of I am here in incarnation. If we become diligent during the times of sleeping and waking we can get a glimpse of the the one who participates in these states of being. The three states are separate from the one who experiences them. We need to separate these three states of consciousness and recombine them this so the work.of the yogi or alchemist.

We do this by first bringing full awareness and becoming totally awake during the waking period of consciousness. That means remembering oneself from moment to moment and not falling into fantasy or daydreaming or getting lost in train of thought. Through constant practice of self awareness and mediation we can become fully aware and have an unbroken stream of consciousness during the waking state.

Connect With the Inner Giver

Kabbalist taught that the universe is made up of a duality between the almighty bestower which is known as the creator and the receivers which are the creation and all of the myriads of beings within creation. Each being has its inner giver within. We all have our inner father. This is the bestower.

Kabbalist taught that humanity gradually develops this inner aspect of giving. By nature we are receptive, as souls we want to gain experience and have things happen to us and receive from the bestower. We are able to tap into a huge reservoir of unconditional love if we change the polarity and activate our inner giver. If we activate the inner giver we can know that are actions will be unselfish and we will enter the transcendental plain of consciousness.

The Work of the Magi

Birth, Death, and Resurrection: Science of the Soul

Christ, astrology, pagans and Sun worship | Gregory Sams Blog

The Sun goes through a cycle in which it is born, matures, reaches its highest point, begins declination, becomes dead in the winter, and resurrects in Spring. The Sun is the macro Soul of man and the journey of the Sun means the interior journey of birth, death, sacrifice, and resurrection from the tomb of matter. This is the esoteric wisdom of the ages. In my way, we see as we live that the trees once luscious and green in the summer become dead in the winter. For the first time, one may think that the trees are forever going to be withered and dead, it is only until we witness the resurrection first hand that we begin to understand the cycles of nature. By observing this intuitively we can come to a space of calm in knowing that so to use shat have renewed life after death in the same way the dead tree and plants are run by the Sun. The inner sun of the spiritual Son of The great spirit in us must resurrect us from our winter.

The Alchemical Lab of the Body

The body is made in a way that if utilized correctly it will naturally ward of illness and mental issues such as the dappening drag feeling we all have. Essentially the human body is a perfect combination of the elements. It is pillar of salt endowed with spirit fire. When the spirit fire is weakened through rapid exhaustion of the energy force, then the physical body becomes weakened, first mentally then physically. If we learn to retain the outgoing impulse and shut down the five sense periodically through mediation we can recharge the body. The body is a battery. Notice that we are electromagnetic beings but we are all wearing rubber shoes. We know that rubber does not conduct electricity therefore we are walking around without being grounded. Here we have three imbalances,

1. We are always seeking and following the outgoing current of the senses. The energy seeks to leave through the 5 senses hence when we watch an emotional movie we may feel tired, or of we are paying attention to a lecture we may become tired, or after physical exertion we become tired. The energy seeks an exit.

2. We are not grounded we are always whare insulated shoes removing our connection to the negative polarity hence causing inflammation within the body.

3. We are not centered in our being. Instead we are identified with our mind and bodies. If we find our center we can identify with the aspect of our self that is unmanifested. By correcting these three aspects we can keep the fire burning within us and the body will naturally become a beacon of health.
