Alchemical Mercury, however, differs from the mythological Hermes while also corresponding to him. Whereas Hermes is personified as a deity, Mercury in alchemy functions as a metaphysical principle.
Traditionally associated with the liquid metal quick…

The Rite presents his practice as an aristocratic approach to spiritual transformation grounded in Greco-Egyptian metaphysics and interpreted through a…
