Golden Aura

An alchemist is a medieval chemical scientist and philosopher. The best-known goals of the alchemists were the transmutation of common metals into gold or silver; the creation of a "panacea", or the elixir of life, a remedy that, it was supposed, would cure all diseases and prolong life indefinitely; and the discovery of a universal solvent. This practice was as much philosophical and spiritual, as it was a scientific discipline.

Some Hermetic schools argue that the transformation of lead into gold is equivalent to the transmutation of the physical body into gold, with the goal of attaining immortality. This is described as Internal Alchemy.

Cultures from around the globe have sought this practice for over 2,500 years. Today it is incorporated into religious, metaphysical and cultural interpretation.

So, on that note, the quote of the day is:

“The only gold that does not fluctuate in value with the markets is the golden illumination of spiritual unity with the Goddess.” tc
