Passages from the diary of the Comte de Saint Germain:
Paris, 1749 AD
"I recently discovered this strange box in the archives of the masonic lodge 'Grand Orion de France' in Paris, of which I am part. It made me think immediately of one of the music boxes Msr. Philippe Lemarchand produces, and which I intend to purchase. But, according to the documents that I found with it, this very box is much older."
"These documents, which some think might have been written by Christian Rosencreutz, founding father of the Rose-Croix, explain this box. "The Key to one's Ultimate Truth" as it's called, would have been produced around the year 1275 by the well known alchemist Albert le Grand, and might be the key to the fullfilment of one's ultimate quest for truth."
"I have been studying this object for a few weeks now, and here are my conclusions at this point: According to the writer of the documents, it seems to have been made with three different metals: The light parts with a gold based alliage, the dark parts with lead, and the red parts with an unknown alliage. The only thing the writer seems to know for certain about this last alliage is that human blood was part of its composition."
"The box's six different sides each explore a different domain. To make my study easier, I have given them the following names: "The Invocation Circle", "The Calendar", "The Kabbalistic Tree", "The Exorcism Circle", "The Vulgar State", and "The Golden State".
"This is where the study has taken me so far. The thoughts of Magnus are still a mystery to me, but I'm starting to see the links between the panels of the sides. The only thing I still miss is the key. Maybe the solution is in the blood..."

"If being is to unveil itself, it will be in the face of a transcendence and not an intentionality; it will be brute being caught in the shifting sands, a being that reverts to itself: it will be the sensible hollowing itself out". -- Merleau-Ponty (1968, p. 210).
St. Germain
'THE TIME EATER'
Death Is Not Final At All
This is the story of how Count St. Germain went from 18th c. 'Wonderman'
to eternally wandering 'Journeyman',
with a novel answer as to how this can be done transcending consciousness.
Count St. Germain faces personal and metaphysical dilemmas against a background of a dying, corrupt, globalist culture, facing environmental collapse. Blessed with Wisdom, Longevity, and Wealth, St. Germain was probably the most passionately liberated man in
18th c. Europe and arguably of today. His real devotion, however, is to magic...and the
search for his own soul impels him forward.
Germain lives fully in the present where all concepts of space, time, life and death collapse, when the grip of past and future fears recede. This surrender of doing is experienced as a terrifying 'death' since everything you've known disappears as self-imposed restraint is let go, replaced by dissolution of boundaries and endless perception of the True Self.

FROM WONDERMAN TO
JOURNEYMAN
Holy Brother, Holy Mountain, Holy Fire
Transylvania has three prominent literary claims to fame: Dracula, Frankenstein, and Count St. Germain. And what they share is the Solomon School -- the fabled and often wrongly demonized Scholomance -- an esoteric mystery school with shamanic roots in the neolithic era. After learning the secrets of the light and the dark, their final examination involved copying all they knew about humanity into the Solomonar's book.
Like Giordano Bruno before them, they became legendary wandering alchemists, who have sworn on the "rocks of Solomon" to uphold their way of life. The Order of Phosphorus is symbolic of fire illuminated from clay, of light emerging from darkness -- rebirth of the Phoenix from ashes. The central theme of Masonry is the symbolism of the initiation of a Master Mason, with the ritual death and resurrection.
The magicians of this guild use the hidden nature of darkness to reveal light and gnosis within themselves. This is analogous to the emergence of Zero Point Energy from the Vacuum -- meta-syn light -- All Form is Void. Bright space is the son of dark space, which emerges from the depths of the great dark waters.
He shines forth as the sun; he is the blazing divine dragon of wisdom and self-realization -- the inner dragon, kundalini, or serpent power. When the true dragon of primordial essence arises, a clarity awakens which is so clear and fundamentally beautiful that it seems like a bright light or a shining "mystic" pearl. When this clarity is firmly in place it pervades the universe without hindrance.
The finite is triple, because it is ever-manifesting -- archetype, form and matter. Lifeforce is a universal essence in which father, mother, son, as a unity, and a quaternary, is a living manifestation that leads to the archaic idea of immaculate conception, now finally crystallizing as the Stone.
THE HEART IS FIRE
In our tale of The Count, dear reader, all of these lives intertwine in the Deep, hidden behind the mystic veil of the ancient Mysteries -- unbound by space and time. The dragon of alchemy "devours, fertilizes, begets, slays, and brings itself to life again," as does St. Germain...with the help of Dr. Frankenstein, and the Elixir of Dracula's Heart, which he must recreate to keep regenerating and serving mankind. With the secrets of Kundalini, we can fly unencumbered on the wings of a spontaneous heart.
The Mystics find the image of the Sun in their heart -- a path of soul and of divine heart. They find their own life-force which they call the ‘sun’. Our physiological life, regarded as an energy process, is entirely solar. The divine energy that dwells in the human heart. The human heart is a restless heart. The soul’s energy, the soul’s instincts, urge us toward something beyond our comprehension -- divine union.
The human heart learns to beat in time and resonate with the Soul of the World. All who are born of “Heart’s Affliction” must eventually find their way to that spot where they “Scarcely move, yet swiftly seem to run” and having become one with “The Way, The Truth and The Life” they will discover that the shifting scenes of the world they had thought to be so real, will pass by them as a pageant until the Vision of the Grail Itself is presented to their pure Understanding.
The Art of Transmutation is the Heart of Alchemy.
Dracula's Heart is an allusion to the Great Rite, Secret of Secrets, or "Sacred Wedding", Hieros Gamos of the Royal Dragons, also known as the Elixir or Philosopher's Stone. The heart of a diamond is a metaphor for both a dangerous relationship and a powerful ally -- the Heart of Heaven and Earth.
The sacred marriage is celebrated symbolically in the great rite of the union of sky and earth: "As Above, So Below". It is a ritual that permeates all cultures. In Egyptian mythology, Isis, the sister-wife of Osiris, sought and reassembled his body after his murder and dismemberment by his brother Seth. In this connection, she took on the role of the goddess of rebirth, and restored him in a more evolved form. Some speculate that Mary Magdalene, sacred consort of Jesus, was an alchemist, and one of the last High Priestesses of Hathor.
The transmutation must take place within the alchemist first before it can be transferred into the outer world. If we don't transform ourselves, if we do not grow wise from what we learn from Nature and her laws then it is not alchemy it is something. If it has no spiritual content then it is not alchemy it is something else. There are 3 principles that are separated, purified and reunited. Below the circle and triangle of operation. TRIANGLE, where the spirit appears and communicates, the remedy of the alchemist must have spiritual qualities, there must be a wedding, a consummation of forces.
Jung claimed that, "Archetypes are complexes of experience that come upon us like fate, and their effects are felt in our most personal life. The anima no longer crosses our path as a goddess, but, it may be, as an intimately personal misadventure, or perhaps as our best venture."

THE HOLY BROTHER
In 1779, St. Germain arrived in Altona in Schleswig. Here he bonded with his 'apprentice' Prince Karl of Hesse-Kassel, who also had an interest in mysticism and was a member of several secret societies. The Count showed the Prince several of his gems and revealed formulae for his new method of dying cloth. Prince Karl recognized St. Germain as a royal cousin, son of his own cousin Charlotte Amalie, daughter of Karl von Hessen-Wanfried and his wife, Julianne -- a cadet line of the House of Hesse under the sovereignty of the land of Hesse-Kassel.
The Prince was impressed and installed the wizend Count in Eckernförde with an abandoned factory that he specifically acquired for him. Karl supplied St. Germain with the materials and raw cloth he needed to proceed with the project. They met frequently over those years to pursue their mystical agenda together. The Prince built an elaborate initiatory garden and a Masonic tower with an observatory and underground laboratory for alchemical experiments in his nearby summer residence Louisenlund.
In the sanctuary of Louisenlund, among other things, they cooperated in creating gemstones and jewelry -- and initiating enlightened nobles and Masons. The Prince later recounts in a letter that he was the only person in whom the Count truly confided. He told the Prince that he was the son of the Transylvanian Prince Francis II Rákóczi, and was 88 years of age when he arrived in Schleswig.
FOREKNOWLEDGE & REFLECTION
St. Germain did not expand on his unusual education beyond his tutorial years with the Medici family in Florence - under the care of the last Duc de Medici (Gian Gastone) [Gian Gastone de Medici, 7th Grand Duke of Tuscany. He learned how to be a Watcher, a high-society spy. Hermetic, Qabalistic & Alchemical studies deal with our primordial nature as light beings capable of transformation and energetic communion with Cosmos. He obediently concealed his affiliation with the ancient Dragon-riders -- the Solomonarii -- deep in Transylvania at the Holy Mountain.
Awakening is an inexorable process of death. Without the sadness and humility of having to expunge one's former self, the new cannot be born. "When the believer has mastered his lower self, so that it serves as a riding mount beneath him, the deeds of his heart will shine forth upon his face. -- Al-Jilani (12th c. Sufi)
SERPENT POWER
Their mystical sisterhood, the Serpentaria, traces their legacy back to Delphi and beyond, perhaps back to Gobekli Tepe. The name "Pythia" derived from Pytho, which in myth was the original name of Delphi. The Greeks derived this place name from the verb, pythein (πύθειν, "to rot"), which refers to the decomposition of the body of the monstrous Python after she was slain by Apollo. The snake is universally a symbol of birth, new life, transformation, cosmic creation and divine knowledge and wisdom. She symbolizes the wounds of the heart and body she accepts as part of her existence, for feminine consciousness accepts the world as it is, with all its pain and suffering.
Serpents are a universal symbol seen during mind-altered states, including kundalini arousal. The Upper Mesopotamian cult of the dead used hallucinogenic substances, likely from mushrooms and grains, since serpents are a universal symbol seen during mind-altered states. A small seal that depicts the Serpent - Tree of life connection, also found in the Sumerian creation stories, was discovered there. Isis was shown as a serpent with a crown on top of her head. It echoes the Egyptian Uraeus snake, symbolizing enlightenment and immortality. The Sumerian Tiamat is the primordial Dragon Queen ancestor.
Zosimus' own sister, Theosebia, had a considerable reputation as an alchemist in her own right. But the most important of all the early female alchemists is Cleopatra, author of the classical Chrysopeia, or Gold-Making. In this work, collected with the "Isis the Prophetess" story in the 11th century Codex Marcianus, we find the earliest image of the Ouroboros serpent, biting it own tail. This masterful symbol of the cosmic cycle is half black and half white and encloses a brief Greek phrase meaning "the sum of all philosophy." To the Pythagoreans it symbolized the regeneration of the cosmos -- the place where we share one heart.
The “Solomonari” are not supernatural creatures, but humans who have learned special abilities -- blending masculine and feminine elements in the psyche. It is said that the children which will became “solomonar”, are born with different signs on them. Later, as the legend says, these children were chosen by experienced Solomonari, taken into forests or in caves, which were usually marked with coded inscriptions. There they learned the art and craft of wizardry, which they later used for fighting against the dark forces of nature and human spirit. They were healers, summoners, thaumaturgs and mastered the highest science and lore about the Universe.
"Students received their own 'book' at the end of their training, described as a stone talisman with nine mysterious letters in it. In any given situation, the solomonari concentrates on the book, and from it discerns what he should do" (Melton 604). Once initiated, they become full-fledged alchemists with the power to maintain the balance of nature and to preserve order" (Ramsland 20).
MAY THE HILLS TREMBLE
Vlad Tepes, a 15th-century Prince in Romania was known as Dracula, "Son of Dracul". His father was known as Dracul (or Dragon) in the Grail fraternity of the Ordo Draconis (The Imperial Court of the Dragon) from 1431. Vlad Dracul was a minion of Sigismund of Luxembourg, and was educated at the Emperor's court in Nuremberg. Dracul hit the political jackpot in 1431, with his investiture into Societas Draconis, and his investiture as Prince of Wallachia. There is no convincing evidence Vlad Tepes engaged in any folkloric vampire behavior before or after his death.
House Draculescu is heir to the House of Dracula. Later the Basarab house split from conflict between the Dănești and the Drăculești. These lines were in constant contest for the throne from the late fourteenth to the early sixteenth centuries. Descendants of the line ruled until 1600. Drăculeşti line began with Vlad II Dracul, one of the sons of one of the most important rulers of the Basarab dynasty, Mircea cel Bătrân. The name Drăculeşti is derived from the membership of Vlad II Dracul, "the Dragon," in the Order of the Dragon (founded 1408). One of the sons of Vlad II was Vlad III Drăculea, known also simply as "Dracula" (Son of Dracul).
Dracula learned the secrets of nature and magic at the Scholomance, an occult school that is described to lay nestled "amongst the mountains over Lake Hermannstadt, where the devil claims" every "tenth scholar as his due" (Stoker 383).
Vampire stems from the Anatolian word "vber" or "uber", and means "witch." In practical terms, a Scythian druid was an overlord, and so originally a vampire was an overlord, and hence a Dragon. The word in Greek is drakon; as in edrakon, a verb form of derkesthai, meaning 'to see clearly' in a sort of timeless or transcendent way. The truth of all truth is the ’Still Center of the Universe’, the all-seeing Eye -- numinous, transcendent and ineffable.
QUINTESSENCE: ELIXIR VITAE
A recipe for the tincture in Lancelot Colson’s Philosophia maturata instructs the alchemist to ‘increase the fire, till it [the matter for the Stone] be perfect yellow, and then again increase the fire, until it be red as Dragon’s blood’. (Abraham, pgs. 38-39)
Visible Darkness
Pineal DMT is the Universal Medineine, the Alchemical Elixir of longevity, bliss and light, produced in the retort vessel of the cranium. With this elixir one can live eternity in an instant, in each and every instant bathing in primordial light. The spark, or scintilla, in the human soul, represents the potential of psyche's reunification with the unconscious. The primal anthropos related to this spark, is symbolic of the "Self", the unification of a conscious, individuated personality with the full range of oppositions and archetypes in the unconscious mind.
Some shamanic cultures like the Kogi raise their spiritual leaders in the dark for their first 18 years. They communicate with the thought process that shapes and maintains reality, the source of life and intelligence to connect with this cosmic consciousness and, vitally. Darkness is a vital tool for self-discovery and initiation; time-distortion, empathy, dreams. Such visionaries can see the future and past, and through material illusions with clairvoyance and transcendence. They can travel to the land of the dead and into the hearts of the living.
Khunrath likened visible darkness to the scintilla, a shining splendour "of him alone who is the Mighty and Strong...the true Aqua Permanens, eternally living...radical moisture animated by the fiery spark of the World Soul, the light of nature." Khunrath writes that the “sparks” with many faces and many eyes come from the ruach elohim, the Spirit of God. The scintilla, the spark from 'the light of nature' is a symbol of the anima mundi. He calls them the Monad and the Sun. This light is the lumen naturae which illuminates consciousness, and the scintillae are germinal luminosities shining forth from the darkness of the unconscious. Dragon magic fundamentally relies in discovering simplicity and stillness within the self.
Legend says a permanent elixir of eternal life can be made from the heart of Count Dracula. St. Germain was naturally aware of this powerful and esteemed Transylvanian heritage. His ancestors were Princes of Transylvania -- Dragons in their own right. And he knew that Vlad preceded him as a Mage in the Solomon School, which taught him the secret of eating the Dragon's Heart, and the secrets of the Cosmos. Dragons blood elixir awakens many raw cosmic powers and forces.
When you are in the presence of divine love any sort of madness may overtake you, be swept up, be not afraid of the silent Saints, the worst that may happen is that you awaken to your own true self.
For uncounted Aeons, mankind witnessed the nightly drama of the heavenly bodies -- the fixed and wandering stars watched back. They rightly held the Precession panorama in awe, as periodically great catastrophes descended to Earth from the heavens. Eventually, an order was deduced from these nightly wanderings. Mankind sought to magically reflect this heavenly order on Earth and perhaps hold catastrophe at bay.
At the end of the 17th c. the Ottomans were expelled from Hungary, but the Habsburgs took advantage of a weakened and devastated Hungary to take over the entire country, including Transylvania. Although the Transylvanian Hungarian princes resisted in the early 18th c. against the Habsburg usurpation of the Hungarian Crown, they were unable to prevent it. Thus, Hungary came under the control of the Habsburg Empire.
Ferenc of Rákóczi, Prince of Transylvania was Head of the First Hungarian Liberation Battle for the re-establishment of Hungarian Kingdom Authority. In the fight for independence against the Habsburg Conquest all Hungarian people engaged in a spiritual struggle extending across centuries.
The first Habsburg King acquired the Hungarian throne by a deal unacceptable to the people. Hungarian elites ridiculed the Habsburg Clan and encouraged the Hungarian Royal State Formation. Independence of the Habsburg Clan, and the reestablishment of the Hungarian State Authority in her territory is the crucial movement cult of the Hungarian nation.
Joseph Rákóczi was the second son of Prince Ferenc Rákóczi and Amalie Princesse of Hessen, born in the French emigration of her father. The Conceptor and Head of the 2nd Hungarian Liberation's Battle against the Habsburg Empire was excommunicated by the Pope for this mission. In 1784, the Bavarian Illuminati, presumably including St. Germain in the shadows, attempted to overthrow the Hapsburgs. Comte de Saint Germain was also a rumored paid agent of the French Revolution. In other words – he was a spy for the Dragon Dynasty wherever he went.
The Comte de Saint Germain reputedly died around age 93 in February 1784 and was reportedly buried in a private grave at Nicolai Church (German St. Nicolaikirche) in Eckernförde, a German town in Schleswig-Holstein. It is well-known that the inventory of his probated goods did not include the expected gold, gems, or his treasured alchemical books, now called the Triangular MS and La Très Sainte Trinosophie (The Most Holy Trinosophia). Such items are conspicuous in their absence, though some may have been kept securely at Louisenlund, where they were collected by others.
EteRNA LOVE MAGIC
Still in the bloom of his powers, the Count fell most deeply in love in the Old Way with his own cousin, who was also his "sister" -- his Soror Mystica. She became his ritual "sister-wife". She gave birth to their son, from a Morganatic marriage during a brief secret sorjourn to Hungary to visit his family and fulfill this obligation, before a spy mission to Holland. This marriage bridge reinforced several branches of the Grail lines.
Symbiosis is - above all else - Harmony and Harmony is transcendence. Those who knew transcendent reality, in being able to read his or her own heart and mind, could read the hearts and minds of others. That transcendent potential was an essential part of the divine seership of Kings and Queens, the Gnosis of First Sight, by which they ruled. Dragon "nautioneers" have employed a similar process in their visionary explorations, navigating waves of Unborn Nothingness -- "travel without moving".
Altered States of Consciousness can be achieved through meditation, trauma, sleep disturbance, sensory deprivation or sensory overload, neurochemical imbalance, epileptic seizure, or fever. They may also be induced by frenzied dancing ("Spiral Dance of the Vortex" to honor the dead), drumming, or chanting. They may be induced by electrically stimulating parts of the brain or by ingesting psychotropic drugs, but foremost by Tantric sex.
This is like the bright moon in the sky, lightening up the world to view, penetrating darkness. One can then cease to employ effort involving increase and decrease, give up doing and enter non-doing. -- Liu Yiming (Commentary on Understanding Reality, part 1 #7)
The moon waxing to fullness is a secret passed on by word of mouth. The medicinal substances are hard to know, and the firing process is not easy to understand. Students should hasten to find a genuine teacher. -- Liu Yiming (Commentary on Understanding Reality, part 1 #7)
Apophenia is the experience of seeing meaningful patterns or connections in random or meaningless data. The term was coined in 1958 by Klaus Conrad, who defined it as the "unmotivated seeing of connections" accompanied by a "specific experience of an abnormal meaningfulness", but it has come to represent the human tendency to seek patterns in random nature in general, as with gambling, spiritual phenomenology, paranormal phenomena, arcane correspondences, synchronicities, religion, and even attempts at scientific observation. Or, perhaps, it is a relic of authentic holistic Vision -- the "clarity" of the Dragons.
THE SEPARATION
St. Germain's perpetual yearning for his Beloved shows in his English song titles, The Maid That's Made For Love and Me (O Wouldst Thou Know What Sacred Charms), and It Is Not That I Love You Less. Much like himself, the world knew nothing of their son, Isaac, and less about his Hungarian son Abraham and his wife Regina.
A marriage contract wherein the bride and the children of the marriage will not receive anything else (other than the dower) from the bridegroom or from his inheritance or clan, is dubbed a "marriage with only the dower and no other inheritance", i.e. matrimonium morganaticum.
The Latin term, applied to a Germanic custom, was adopted from a Germanic term, *morgangeba." The literal meaning is explained in a 16th-century passage as, "a marriage by which the wife and the children that may be born are entitled to no share in the husband's possessions beyond the 'morning-gift'", which is to say nothing about him re-possessing back that corporeal "gift" of non-dynastic status.
Dragon of Wisdom
But such unions have a far older lineage and purpose in the Dragon dynasties and neolithic Transylvanian history, as ritual and alchemical celebration of the ancient Brother-Sister Grail unions -- enactments of the Great Rite of hieros gamos, which is embedded in the line from pre-Sumerian times. For example, in the Song of Songs, in the Camelot tales of the Grail, Arthur engaged in such a marriage with his sister Morgana (producing Mordred) -- and those of the Serpentaria, the most archaic branch of the Grail maidens.
In the Mystery tradition of hieros gamos (sacred marriage) and the Gnostic tradition of spiritual marriage, we see the possibility of divine union in which sexual union is the principal sign or symbol. Key to these practices is the inner or archetypal union of above and below, the intermingling of the revelatory divine world with the mundane earthly one -- star-crossed lovers. These secret currents of sexual mysticism helped fuel the rise of the troubadours and their erotic doctrine, and the esoteric tradition of Jacob Böhme in the early 17th century.
MAGICAL MEDICINE
The Grail is Light, just as woman is light, and both are the light of the 'Sun'. Primal creator
goddesses continually giving birth to the world of Form out of Chaos. With their breath—a metaphor for the cosmic life-force—they kindle the cauldron of creation and bring our world into being.
Transcendent consciousness, (symbolized on the Tree of Life by Tiphareth, the solar Sphere), is embodied in the ancient 'Great Rite' of the Dragon families. The 'hierosgamos' is a symbolic and psychophysical act with neurological, epigenetic, and meta-genetic effects. Like the Rite of the Vampire, such rites are meant to enhance intelligence and promote longevity. Royal prerogatives were undertaken on a regular basis with selected partners.
Morganatic unions appear to be temporary in nature and abide until the initiation intended by the mystical union is completed, or becomes completed through the pain experienced at the sundering, which is the method by which the Sumaire is awoken and the fontaine de soif is made apparent. The mythical cycles vary according to the personalities involved, but if trouble ensues it is because of the breaking of some taboo, or the misconstruing of the nature of the relationship and the spiritual dynamic, usually by the male.
Discovered in the paleolithic era, shamanic sexuality is the legacy of the Great Goddess cultures. Rock womb-tombs were memorialized as megalithic monuments from the 11,000 year old labyrinth of the stars, Gobekli Tepe in Turkey, to the neolithic subterreanean Hypogeum of Malta, and later the world navel Delphi, whose root is δελφύς delphys, "womb".
Vagina-shaped ritual caves are found globally, but notably in the Balkans. Kashmir has a sanctuary called Garbhagriha, the house of the womb, where regeneration is effected and the higher self of the devotee is reborn. At Mycenæ, so-called “beehive” tombs were constructed as wombs of stone to receive the dead. The Sumerian word sal, means “vulva,” “womb,” and “woman.” Also, the Latin matrix carries the meanings “female cavity,” “womb,” “matron,” and “mother.” Other allusions include the Grail, cauldron of the deeps, Cauldron of Annwn, and cup -- secret chamber.
Philalethes tells us those proportions that it is necessary to respect in order to proceed to the Separation: “Let me tell you how this part of work is performed. Take 4 parts of our fiery Dragon, in whose belly is hidden the magic Chalybs, and 9 parts of our Magnet; mingle them by means of a fierce fire, in the form of a mineral water, the foam of which must be taken away. Remove the shell, and take the kernel. Purge what remains once more by means of fire and the Sun, which may be done easily if Saturn shall have seen himself in the mirror of Mars. Then you will obtain our Chameleon, or Chaos, in which all the virtues of our Art are potentially present.”
What the Soul Foretells
Jung said, "the archetypes of the collective unconscious... precipitate complexes of ideas in the form of mythological motifs. Ideas of this kind are never invented, but enter the field of inner perception as finished products, for instance in dreams. They are spontaneous phenomena which are not subject to our will, and we are therefore justified in ascribing to them a certain autonomy." Fata Morgana
Physiologically, Conjunction is using the body’s sexual energies for personal transformation. Conjunction takes place in the body at the level of the Heart - primordial life forms are created from the energy of the Sun or lightning. Psychologically, Conjunction is empowerment of our true selves, the union of both the masculine and feminine sides of our personalities into a sacred paradigm or intuitive state of consciousness.
The maid for whom his melody,
His thousand songs are heard on high,
Blooms blushing to her lover's tale:
His queen, the garden queen, his Rose,
Unbent by winds, unchilled by snows,
Far from winters of the west,
By every breeze and season blest,
Returns the sweets by Nature given
In soft incense back to Heaven;
And gratefu yields that smiling sky
Her fairest hue and fragrant sigh.
And many a summer flower is there,
And many a shade that Love might share...
~Lord Byron, The Giaor

The much heralded marriage of the King and Queen produces a state of consciousness best described as a feeling intellect, which can be purified to a state of perfect intuition, that Egyptian alchemists referred to as “Intelligence of the Heart.” This special kind of intelligence or way of knowing is at work in the alchemist, for s/he is born of the sacred marriage of masculine and feminine consciousness.

The Sundering
...And every tear he
shed, sullen eyed;
traced a shattered, ancient dream,
which in that dark despair and hopeless
silence died.
How could this be,
does grief end?
His soul desired much more
of her than man could know
or manners condescend.
She loved him once
but that withdrawn,
Never could he love again
as life’s hope from very life itself
was torn. The ouroboros dragon is an ancient alchemy symbol that symbolizes the
equality of the internal and external in the alchemist soul. HIDDEN HISTORY
Within years of his "death", the German town, on a small spit of land between a fjord the Baltic Sea and Windebyer Noor was struck by a giant storm that all but washed the church out to sea leaving the issue of his last remains, a moot point. The dragon-riders brewed up a mega-thuunderstorm. The 13 November 1872 Baltic Sea flood hit the coast from Denmark to Pomerania. Of all the German coastal settlements, Eckernförde was most heavily damaged due to its location on Eckernförde Bay which was wide open to the north-east. The entire town was flooded, 78 houses were destroyed, 138 damaged and 112 families became homeless. This 1872 storm surge destroyed his grave.
But this is not the story the family itself tells. Rather, as we shall see, his body was actually replaced by a log. The family claims he sank into a deep coma from porphyria, the family curse, and though declared dead in his catatonic state was spirited back to his homeland in Transylviania and returned to the Solomonarii, who had raised him from youth, protecting and hiding him from political adversaries. His is identity was safeguarded as a protective measure from the persecutions against the Hapsburg dynasty. His slumber, if it was slumber, was not sleep. They recognized his coma as a regenerative state induced with the Elixir. It felt like dying as the old self died to make way for the new.
St. Germain was attended by another of the secret brotherhood members -- a certain Dr. Victor Frankenstein -- whose ventures in reanimation rose to infamy around 1793, with the creation of his infamous creature. It is widely known that, as a boy, Frankenstein was interested in the works of alchemists such as Cornelius Agrippa, Paracelsus, and Albertus Magnus, and he longed to discover the fabled elixir of life. Therefore, the Doktor could hardly believe his great fortune. Later he becomes obsessed with the idea of creating life in inanimate matter through artificial means.
“Natural philosophy is the genius that has regulated my fate; I desire, therefore, in this narration, to state those facts which led to my predilection for that science. When I was thirteen years of age, we all went on a party of pleasure to the baths near Thonon: the inclemency of the weather obliged us to remain a day confined to the inn. In this house I chanced to find a volume of the works of Cornelius Agrippa. I opened it with apathy; the theory which he attempts to demonstrate, and the wonderful facts which he relates, soon changed this feeling into enthusiasm. A new light seemed to dawn upon my mind; and, bounding with joy, I communicated my discovery to my father. My father looked carelessly at the title page of my book, and said, "Ah! Cornelius Agrippa! My dear Victor, do not waste your time upon this; it is sad trash."
If, instead of this remark, my father had taken the pains to explain to me that the principles of Agrippa had been entirely exploded, and that a modern system of science had been introduced, which possessed much greater powers than the ancient, because the powers of the latter were chimerical, while those of the former were real and practical; under such circumstances, I should certainly have thrown Agrippa aside, and have contented my imagination, warmed as it was, by returning with greater ardour to my former studies. It is even possible that the train of my ideas would never have received the fatal impulse that led to my ruin. But the cursory glance my father had taken of my volume by no means assured me that he was acquainted with its contents; and I continued to read with the greatest avidity.” ― Mary Shelley, Frankenstein
RE-IGNITED
St. Germain, being merely comatose was much easier to awaken -- mere practice for Herr Doktor -- but naturally he was profoundly changed in the experimental process which shortcut the regeneration. Delta* brainwave range of deep dreamless sleep triggers the release of anti-aging Human Growth Hormone so beneficial for renewing energy, healing and regeneration. With an imperfect experimental process, his soul was 'saved' but not the body whose youthful appearance he had cultivated through his Elixir for so many years. Like the hapless monster yet to be created, he begins to yearn for his female companion, having exhausted the love of subject after subject.
Ye know not what you say, there is only me who can speak on this matter, I have exhausted all like the music that I abandoned, unable to go beyond.
Even dead in one sense, he was far more alive than ordinary human beings in another.
However, since those times the world of humans has profoundly changed and continues to do so. His hidden lineage has spread into several branches, as they do, and migrated to new continents. The family runs the Adamus Mining Corporation which engages in gold production, mineral exploration, mine development, and processing plant construction and commissioning activities. It owns a 90% interests in the Adamus Gold Project.
But, in the turmoil of his unusual 'life,' St. Germain's passion to regain his lost love remains.
She is the journey’s end and fulfillment of the his nature -- devotion to the feminine and surrender to the goddess, a love that sacrifices self even unto death.
Like the blood of Medusa, both poison and panacea, the Dragon solution is in the blood, in actualizing the powers inherent in dragon nature, being fearless to be superhuman, for the sake of all life. The Grail Quest and alchemical Great Work are also called "Opening the Eye of the Dragon." Gnosis lies at the heart of Dragon culture, which holds we should be at one with the Earth not presume dominion over it.
THE CIRCLES OF ADEPTS
Up to the 18th century, the adepts meet and work on similar concluding paths .
Let us cite two circles of this type:
* the German Order of the Golden Rosy Cross of the Ancient System and above all the Order of the Initiated Brothers of Asia, on distictly kabbalistic foundations. Cagliostro crossed Germany in 1779 where he participated to various alchemical and theurgical works in the Masonic milieu .
* the School of Naples-city where Cagliostro stayed in 1783- heiress to Chaldean, Egyptian and
Pythagorean currents . Its materials appear to have been Hebraic Kabalistics til the 18th century.
THE ARCANA ARCANORUM
‘As for the fourth furor [enthusism], coming from Venus, it turns and transmutes the spirit of man into a god by the ardour of love, and renders him entirely like God, as the true image of God.’ ~Agrippa
Solomonarii and Holy Mountain and Tablets in Sinaia
Solomonarii are Romanian tradition, witches, practicing magic, reckoned to be invested with miraculous powers, can have relationships with spirits. In the popular imagination, they straddles dragons and make heavenly ascension to stop or bring hail and lightning.
Romanian tradition says that wearing the garment solomonarii a white tundra, ragged, a bag in which he keeps his magical instruments and Solomonăriei book. Prospective solomonari were kidnapped by solomonarii when small and reared in Crug (center) learned all the languages of the earth where living creatures, all the secrets of nature and magic formulas, spells and charms. That they descend from the biblical King Solomon is doubtful.
At the foot of Bucegi climatic resort Sinaia, discovered a treasure consisting of lead plates, which according to some scholars, would write the history of the Dacian ancient times to the reign of Decebal and beyond. Bucurescu "Sinaia appears in tablets and most important leader after Decebal, unknown to our official history, but suggested the famous medieval German poem" Nibelungenlied "as the Ramunc or Siheger, as a result of the Vlachs. This is the liberator of Dacia, who initiated the return to the old traditions of the country and collection of legends divine or laymen, recorded in tablets in Sinaia. Variants of his name are Romanh Romans, Lomanh and very important, SO LOMONIUS means "The Light".
Attribute given the Dacian king, illuminates both texts enigma in Sinaia and origin of the shaman. They are descendants of the biblical King Solomon, but of the bright king of Dacia. The same tablets tell us that Solomonarii part of a mystical order headquartered in the city Babariului. This city can be made, however, about the rocks in the vicinity of the Bucegi Plateau, where neophyte named Babe after he was born the second time in his cave Zamolxe preparing to be born a third time three-fold Pillar of Heaven, the last stage of Bucegi temple initiatives.
Therefore, in Sinaia tablets seem to be written by solomonari, descendants of those kapnobatai "travel through the clouds" which Strabo speaks. The work of these "wizards" fountain of the race of monks Dacian kapnobatai and ktistai, activity remained unaltered Holy Mountain until today. And did those monks of the hermitage Ialomita, who built the cave cells Zamolxe and know about the Mountain Spirit are heirs and guardians of the temple mysteries of Bucegi? The future will enlighten us on this.
Man is devoured by time and history, not while he lives but because he believes in the reality of time infallible, forgetting and disregarding Eternity.
The neophyte was born the second time in his cave Zamolxe after training on the second level, Babe Plateau. Once initiated he arrives at the third level (altar or shrine main pillar of heaven three-fold) reaching the divine initiation, the center of the world. KOGAION, huge natural temple is the archetypal symbol. Model for all the ancient temples of mysteries about religions involving a second birth.
Count St. Germain's story mirrors Arthur’s quest for the Cauldron of Creation -- a search for the cosmic power that underlies all manifest life and is embodied by the divine feminine and her sacred vessel. It is this which lies at the heart of all later stories of the Holy Grail. Sex was the all-pervasive link to the divine in paganism.
Sexual energy is the primary experience of the human body. It is an energy which can be active on both a physical and a spiritual level. From 40-50,000 years ago sex was sacred because they didn't know what it was, but everything human began with it -- symbolically, mythically, metaphorically, and literally. Sexual healing has a long and distinguished tradition. The history of sex is the history of power, politics, and religion.
When you want to have sex with a god or goddess you enter the temple. Sacred intimates combine the roles of priest, prostitute, and psychotherapist. In other words, they approach sexuality with the understanding that it's related to soul work and to spirituality. As in alchemy, this connection is deepened by introducing certain practices and rituals that involve the sharing of energies and "fluids‟ in the ultimate sacrament.
Magic and sexuality were central for the ancient Egyptians, and their practices may have contributed to the Elysian Mysteries. Western thought and culture has been influenced much more deeply by the East than Western scholars have generally supposed. Alexander brought Brahmins and Sannyasins back from India, along with their philosophies.
Following the Tantric, Taoist and Sufi arts, Western sexual mysticism remained underground and secret because it was heretical and could bring an Inquisition. Those who know, know - and those who know not will simply not believe. The Cross (ankh) is both Death and Generation, and it is on the Cross that the Rose blooms in regeneration. Rosicrucian means the male cross and female rose combined.
We are looking at a knowledge of the transmutational powers of sex. Jung later called the Invisible Partners, anima and animus. The active meditation expands consciousness to a realm beyond the senses. Sacred sexuality deepens intimacy and expands consciousness, in a way to achieve freedom from limitations and to join with the Divine. Worshipful, enthusiastic, intimate sexuality is a pathway to the dissolution of the ego. The true peak is the union into One with Cosmos.
According to Nicholas Roerich, St. Germain was "a member of the Himalayan brotherhood." In 1755 he traveled throughout Eurasia to study occult teachings, and may even have visited Tibet. It is said that while studying occultism in Central Asia the Count was introduced to the secret rites of Tantric sex magic which provided him with a technique to prolong his youth. He founded two secret societies called the Asiatic Brethren and the Knights of Light.
An underground tradition, a tantric cult existed in Provence at the time of the Troubadours that inspired their poetry, after a thousand years of underground existence as Gnostic heresy. Crusaders learned it from Arab mystics and Sufis, as did St. Germain, who then instructed Cagliostro. Some, like Hassan i Sabbah, founder of the Ishmaelian sect of Islam, who used both drugs and tantric sex to produce psychedelic experiences -- meta-sex with tantric transcendence. Such altered states of consciousness lead to the realization of potential divinity.
Alchemists in the 16th and 17th century, such as Marsilio Ficino, Giordano Bruno, Thomas Vaughn and Basil Valentine, conducted Tantric experiments with alchemy. Alchemy is the symbolic language of transformation. St. Germain naturally knew of such works. Rosicrucian manifestos, such as The Alchemical Marriage of Christian Rosycross echo Bruno's Tantrism.
No longer ordinary people, the ritual couple are the inspired Prince and Princess of Alchemy. The elixir is placed in the alembic retort to be subjected to the gentle warmth in the Great Work of transubstantiation. In the Hermetic Gnosis of alchemy the Mage is created divine with divine powers and is in the process of again becoming divine. It is not merely metaphorical. In the operation of Venus, one achieves reunion with the divine. The pentagram is the symbl of Venus, describing her orbit, as astronomers know.
At Versailles, Cagliostro encountered the Count Saint Germain, who insisted that women as well as men not only should be admitted to the rite, but that the inner most secret of freemasonry necessitated that this be so.
At the level of Master, an opportunity is offered to the Egyptian Brother or the Sister to engage in the famous “Quarantine”, two operations of transmutation, lasting 40 days each. In Egypt it took 40 days to dessicate and embalm a mummy to prepare it for the next world before it is washed, oiled wrapped and resined. This is also consistent with modern Dark Room Retreat practices and those from Tibetan Buddhism.
The first Quarantine: "How to achieve the Pentagon and become morally perfect" has to be practiced by thirteen Masters together. Strongly hybridized with magic-cabalistic elements, occasionally reminiscent of the Sacred Magic of Abramelin, had the purpose of sharpening the subtle faculties of the Master’s body of glory to give him the capacity to correctly explain the enigmatic instructions of the second Quarantine: “How to rejuvenate and become physically perfect”.
These circles of adepts involved themselves in the study of three distinct domains,
but in permanent interrelation, for each contributes to the realization of the other two :
1. A theurgic system of invocation of the Holy Guardian Angel or of a
pluraity of angels. The invocations of the eon guide and those of four,
seven, nine angels come down to us from this time.
2. Practice of metallic alchemy in the laboratory. The texts that were given
to me to consult, work with antimony.
3. Practice of internal alchemies, using the processes and
substantial qualities of the physical body considered as an athanor, this
“oven of constant temperature of the alchemists “. Every element, every
stage of metallic alchemy finds its correspondences in the body of the adept.
This effects a permanent way of Return between the exterior Work and the interior Work.
The Arcana Arcanorum insists on theurgy, as a key to open the way to the practice of metallic and internal alchemies. They suggest a technique of making contact with the aeon guides whom he takes to relay to him the unveiled secrets of internal alchemy. As Cagliostro learned from St. Germain, by the pentagons, he “orders the immortals in the name of God” with the “effect of obliging or ordering the aerial spirits, and of doing many marvels and of miracles”.
http://digilander.libero.it/iniziazioneantica/Cagliostro/Alchemy_CagliostroandArcanaArcanorum_%5Benglish%5D.pdf
Theurgy helps the initiate “ become morally perfect”. This path rests on the classic pattern of death and of rebirth. The initiate dies to the darkness in which humanity fell in order to be born again to a superior life. This “perfection” is performed by rites where the symbolism is present from the beginning, but is not explained and illustrated other than progressively and in sections as the of the candidate progresses. It is the model for the ceremonies of Egyptian Masonry.
The Arcana Arcanorum is the theurgical evocation of one or several angels by talisman, seals, pentagons or other techniques. Far from being an end in itself, this evocation marks the beginning of a path. Benefiting from the aid of the Guardian Angel or evoked angels, the initiate undertakes the process of transmutation. The incorruptible body of light, the
soma psychikon, is the golden wedding garment.
Breathing of the Heart
Cagliostro suggests that after moral (or psychic) regeneration, that intensifies his faculties, an initiate is ready to regenerate physically. During the second quarantine which is repeated every fifty years, the adept attempts to become physically as well as morally perfect. After 40 days of physical ordeals, the initiate is rejuvenated and perfectly recreated. Thanks to the strengths thus acquired, the regenerated man will be able to “ propagate the truth, annihilate vice, destroy idolatry and spread the glory of the Eternal”.
An older method of rejuvenation is described in the Thesaurorum thesaurus, a complex manual used by the Golden Rosy Cross, dated 1580, but certainly more recent. “How one uses Magic in order to change their nature and become young again “ describes
a magic retirement of forty days in very similar terms.
The German text requires taking the Lapis Medicilanis Macrocosmi, obtained by laboratory alchemy and rainwater. It is necessary to add a “ stone of the philosophers” obtained by distilling your own blood. Cagliostro gave a similar reference to blood. Cagliostro and the Thesaurus also refer to “grains of Materia Prima”. These formulas to recover lost youth appear perilous. They testify to the medical aspect of this action -- to benefit oneself and others. The ancient Rose Cross practiced hermetic medicine by applying powers acquired for the recovery of others.
The magic circle, dragon's eye and the labyrinth all allude to goal of Courtly Love. The "depths of the sea and the earth" refer directly to the womb, and eclipse to the union of the alchemical brother and his soror mystica -- Frater and Soror. All treasures flow forth or come from that Royal Union. It is more than a metaphor. It is ignition of the alchemy of Transcendence and a cocktail of hormones and pineal DMT, the spirit molecule. As such, it is the Holy Grail of magic, alchemy, and qabalah -- spiritual rebirth.
The "mystic triangle" is the metaphysical bedrock of Rosicrucian philosophy. The Rosicrucians claim Saint Germain and that they, like him, held the secret to immortality. He was the highly revered 'Obermohr' of many mystic brotherhoods. He belongs to old Vienna swirling with Rosicrucians, Illuminates, Alchemists, Magnetopaths, Thaumaturgists, and Templars. He was a living example of the power and fullness of the path.
CRISIS & TRANSFORMATION
Only a dead man can be explained in terms of the past...
Life is not made up of yesterdays only...
"I depart. Search for me. At some point you will see me again."
"I return to the small and the real, for this is the great way, the way of what is to come.
I return to my simple reality, to my undeniable and most minuscule being.
And I take a knife and hold court over everything that has grown without measure and goal.
The depths are inexhaustible, they give everything. Everything is as good as Nothing.
Keep a little and you have something."
WHAT PRICE IMMORTALITY?
Count St. Germain faces personal and metaphysical dilemmas against a background of a dying, corrupt, globalist culture, facing environmental collapse. Catastrophes recorded in ancient sources were traumas common to all mankind. Purged from common memory they are now interpreted as allegories and the trauma submerged in the unconscious. Now, we are awakening from collective amnesia, sensing a major threat is near. Yes, the End is each and every moment passing. Now is always the endless immensity of Eternity.
Blessed with Wisdom, Longevity, and Wealth, St. Germain was probably the most passionately liberated man in 18th c. Europe and arguably of today. His real devotion, however, is to magic...and the search for his own soul which impels him forward.
MAGISTER MAGISTRORUM
Concerning the chaos itself, I must tell you it is not rainwater nor dew, but it is a subtle mineral moisture, a water so extremely thin and spiritual, with such a transcendent, incredible brightness, there is not in all Nature any liquor like unto itself. In plain terms, it is the middle substance of the wise men's Mercury, a water that is coagulable and which may be hardened by a proper heat into stones and metals. Hence it was that the philosophers called it their Stone.
I say they called it a Stone, to the end that no man might know what it was they called so. For there is nothing in the world so remote from the complexion of a stone, for it is water and no stone. Now what water it is I have told you already, and for your better instruction I shall tell you more. It is a water made by Nature, not extracted by the hands of man. Nor is it mere water but a spermatic, viscous composition of water, earth, air and fire. All these four natures unite in one crystalline, coagulable mass, in the form or appearance of water; and therefore I told you it was a water made by Nature.
But because I will not deprive you of help which I may lawfully communicate, I tell you that our preparation is a purgation. Yet do not we purge by common and ridiculous sublimations or the more foolish filtrations, but by a secret, tangible, natural fire. He that knows this fire, and how to wash with it, knows the key of our Art, even our hidden Saturn, and the stupendous, infernal lavatory of Nature. Much more could I say concerning this fire and the proprieties thereof, it being one of the highest mysteries of the creation, a subject without question wherein I might be voluminous, and all the way mysterious, for it relates to the greatest effects of magic.
The first matter is a miraculous substance, one of which you may affirm contraries without inconvenience. It is very weak and yet most strong. It is excessively soft and yet there is nothing so hard. It is one and all, spirit and body, fixed and volatile, male and female, visible and invisible, burns and burns not. It is water and wets not; it is earth that runs and air that stands still. In a word, it is Mercury, the laughter of fools and the wonder of the wise, nor has God made anything that is like him. He is born in the world, but was extant before the world.
In the bottom of this well lies an old dragon, stretched long and fast asleep. Awake her if you can, and make her drink; for by this means she will recover her youth and be serviceable to you forever. "The children of light delight in the words of the wise, because they are light unto their feet and direct their paths. "Why is a man ill?" asks the pupil. "By reason of his disobedience to the light," says the Rabbi. Ponder then on the words of the Holy Qabalah and let it heal all your infirmities." —From an Ancient Commentary on the Zohar
AULA LUCIS, THE HOUSE OF LIGHT
First, that the first matter of the Stone is the very same with the first matter of all things; secondly, that in this matter all the essential principles or ingredients of the Elixir are already shut up by Nature, and that we must not presume to add anything to this matter but what we have formerly drawn out of it; for the Stone excludes all extractions but what is distilled immediately from its own crystalline, universal minera; thirdly and lastly, that the philosophers have their peculiar secret metals, quite different from the metals of the vulgar, for where they name Mercury they mind not quicksilver, where Saturn not lead, where Venus and Mars not copper and iron, and where Sol or Luna not gold or silver. This Stone verily is not made of common gold and silver, but it is made, as one delivers it, "of gold and silver that are reputed base, that stink and withal smell sweetly; of green, living gold and silver to be found everywhere but known to very few."
Matter — as I have formerly intimated — is the house of light. When he first enters it, it is a glorious, transparent room, a crystal castle, and he lives like a familiar in diamonds. He has then the liberty to look out at the windows; his love is all in his sight: I mean that liquid Venus which lures him in; but this continues not very long. He is busy — as all lovers are and labors for a closer union, insinuates and conveys himself into the very substance of his love, so that his heat and action stir up her moist essences, by whose means he becomes an absolute prisoner. For at last the earth grows over him out of the water, so that he is quite shut up in darkness; and this is the secret of the eternal God, which He has been pleased to reveal to some of His servants, though mortal man was never worthy of it. I wish it were lawful for me to enlarge myself in this point for religion's sake, but it is not safe or convenient that all ears should hear even the mysteries of religion.
Trismegistus, in his vision of the creation, did first see a pleasing, gladsome light, but interminated. Afterwards appeared a horrible sad darkness, and this moved downwards, descending from the eye of the light, as if a cloud should come from the sun. This darkness — saith he — was condensed into a certain water, but not without a mournful, inexpressible voice or sound, as the vapors of the elements are resolved by thunder. After this — saith that great philosopher — the Holy Word came out of the light and did get upon the water, and out of the water He made all things. Let it be your study then — who would know all things — to seek out this secret water, which hath in itself all things. This is the physical and famous Pythagorean cube, which surprises all forms, and holds them prisoners.
To be plain, I am silenced, and though it be in my power to speak, yet I have laws as to this subject which I must not transgress. I have chosen therefore to oppose my present freedom to my future necessity, and to speak something at this time which I must never publicly speak hereafter. There is no defect in ought that I have written, if I but tell you one thing which the philosophers have omitted. It is that which some authors have called "the Vessel of Nature and the Green Vessel of Saturn"; and Miriam calls it the Vessel of Hermes.
A menstrous substance it is; and — to speak the very truth — it is the matrix of Nature, wherein you must place the universal sperm as soon as it appears beyond its body. The heat of this matrix is sulphurous, and it is that which coagulates the sperm; but common fire — though it be most exactly regulated — will never do it; and in this opinion see that you be not deceived. This matrix is the life of the sperm, for it preserves and thickens it; but beyond the matrix it takes cold and dies, and nothing effectual can be generated thereof. In a word, without this matrix you will never coagulate the matter nor bring it to a mineral complexion.
ULTRA-TERRESTRIAL
The presence of visible and invisible is what fuels your life ... the Unseen do not ask for much, only not to be forgotten. The myths remain invisibly among us.
I have resolved with myself to discourse of Light,
the powder of projection, and to deliver it over to the hands of posterity, a practice certainly very ancient and first used by those who were primordially wise.
Oh Lord of the Universe, the Vast and Mighty One,
Ruler of the Light and the Darkness,
We adore Thee and we invoke Thee.
Look now with favor upon me, who standeth before Thee.
And grant Thine aid unto the highest aspirations of my soul,
that I may be enabled to accomplish the Great Work,
to the 'glory of Thine Ineffable Name, Aumgn
Diamond Soul
His genius was in demand everywhere and he travels worldwide to fulfill his missions His ways have changed with the times, becoming more scientific and precise, among them brainwave synchronization in resonant chambers with sensory deprivation or isolation tanks, and Dark Retreat initiations, using aspects of eastern and western mysticism.
The Myth of Human Progress and the Enlightenment have given way to what Is --
a corrupt self-defeating civilization -- a mania for hope, full of obsessions and destructive fantasies of expansion. The difference this time is that when we go down the whole planet will go with us. There will, with this final collapse, be no new lands left to exploit, no new civilizations to conquer, no new peoples to subjugate. The long struggle between the human species and the earth will conclude with the remnants of the human species learning a painful lesson about unrestrained greed, hubris and idolatry. Collapse comes throughout human history to complex societies not long after they reach their period of greatest magnificence and prosperity.
This is the story of how St. Germain went from Wonderman to eternally wandering Journeyman.
IMMORTALITY BELIEFS HARDWIRED
By examining children's ideas about "prelife," the time before conception, researchers found results which suggest that our bias toward immortality is a part of human intuition that naturally emerges early in life. And the part of us that is eternal, we believe, is not our skills or ability to reason, but rather our hopes, desires and emotions.

The goal of the spiritual art of alchemy is to unite the opposites — to integrate the conscious and the unconscious, to unlock the light encoded and imprisoned within the darkness. The light within the darkness itself is known as the lumen naturae, the inner living light of primordial, ever-present, non-dual awareness itself, which is the light of nature that literally lights-up the whole of creation in this and every moment. To see the light that is hidden in the darkness is to become conscious, which, alchemically speaking, frees the spirit that is hidden and trapped inside the materialized world.
The art of alchemy itself is an expression that hidden in the darkness is light. The alchemists, Jung says, “discover that in the very darkness of nature a light is hidden, a little spark without which the darkness would not be darkness…the lumen naturae is the light of the darkness itself, which illuminates its own darkness, and this light the darkness comprehends” In contrast to a light that, as the Bible says, “shineth in darkness, and the darkness comprehended it not,” the lumen naturae, the light of lights, is a light that the darkness intimately recognizes as its own nature. The lumen naturae is the luminosity within the darkness recognizing itself as it illumines its own darkness. This archetypal experience of the luminescence of the divine being found in the translucent darkness is referred to in various mystical traditions by names such as the luminous darkness and the black sun. --Paul Levy, http://www.awakeninthedream.com/wordpress/the-light-of-darkness/ * Delta range (0.5 hz - 4 hz): Deep dreamless sleep, trance, suspended animation; Anti-aging.

JOURNEYMAN
Holy Brother, Holy Mountain, Holy Fire
Transylvania has three prominent literary claims to fame: Dracula, Frankenstein, and Count St. Germain. And what they share is the Solomon School -- the fabled and often wrongly demonized Scholomance -- an esoteric mystery school with shamanic roots in the neolithic era. After learning the secrets of the light and the dark, their final examination involved copying all they knew about humanity into the Solomonar's book.
Like Giordano Bruno before them, they became legendary wandering alchemists, who have sworn on the "rocks of Solomon" to uphold their way of life. The Order of Phosphorus is symbolic of fire illuminated from clay, of light emerging from darkness -- rebirth of the Phoenix from ashes. The central theme of Masonry is the symbolism of the initiation of a Master Mason, with the ritual death and resurrection.
The magicians of this guild use the hidden nature of darkness to reveal light and gnosis within themselves. This is analogous to the emergence of Zero Point Energy from the Vacuum -- meta-syn light -- All Form is Void. Bright space is the son of dark space, which emerges from the depths of the great dark waters.
He shines forth as the sun; he is the blazing divine dragon of wisdom and self-realization -- the inner dragon, kundalini, or serpent power. When the true dragon of primordial essence arises, a clarity awakens which is so clear and fundamentally beautiful that it seems like a bright light or a shining "mystic" pearl. When this clarity is firmly in place it pervades the universe without hindrance.
The finite is triple, because it is ever-manifesting -- archetype, form and matter. Lifeforce is a universal essence in which father, mother, son, as a unity, and a quaternary, is a living manifestation that leads to the archaic idea of immaculate conception, now finally crystallizing as the Stone.
THE HEART IS FIRE
In our tale of The Count, dear reader, all of these lives intertwine in the Deep, hidden behind the mystic veil of the ancient Mysteries -- unbound by space and time. The dragon of alchemy "devours, fertilizes, begets, slays, and brings itself to life again," as does St. Germain...with the help of Dr. Frankenstein, and the Elixir of Dracula's Heart, which he must recreate to keep regenerating and serving mankind. With the secrets of Kundalini, we can fly unencumbered on the wings of a spontaneous heart.
The Mystics find the image of the Sun in their heart -- a path of soul and of divine heart. They find their own life-force which they call the ‘sun’. Our physiological life, regarded as an energy process, is entirely solar. The divine energy that dwells in the human heart. The human heart is a restless heart. The soul’s energy, the soul’s instincts, urge us toward something beyond our comprehension -- divine union.
The human heart learns to beat in time and resonate with the Soul of the World. All who are born of “Heart’s Affliction” must eventually find their way to that spot where they “Scarcely move, yet swiftly seem to run” and having become one with “The Way, The Truth and The Life” they will discover that the shifting scenes of the world they had thought to be so real, will pass by them as a pageant until the Vision of the Grail Itself is presented to their pure Understanding.
The Art of Transmutation is the Heart of Alchemy.
Dracula's Heart is an allusion to the Great Rite, Secret of Secrets, or "Sacred Wedding", Hieros Gamos of the Royal Dragons, also known as the Elixir or Philosopher's Stone. The heart of a diamond is a metaphor for both a dangerous relationship and a powerful ally -- the Heart of Heaven and Earth.
The sacred marriage is celebrated symbolically in the great rite of the union of sky and earth: "As Above, So Below". It is a ritual that permeates all cultures. In Egyptian mythology, Isis, the sister-wife of Osiris, sought and reassembled his body after his murder and dismemberment by his brother Seth. In this connection, she took on the role of the goddess of rebirth, and restored him in a more evolved form. Some speculate that Mary Magdalene, sacred consort of Jesus, was an alchemist, and one of the last High Priestesses of Hathor.
The transmutation must take place within the alchemist first before it can be transferred into the outer world. If we don't transform ourselves, if we do not grow wise from what we learn from Nature and her laws then it is not alchemy it is something. If it has no spiritual content then it is not alchemy it is something else. There are 3 principles that are separated, purified and reunited. Below the circle and triangle of operation. TRIANGLE, where the spirit appears and communicates, the remedy of the alchemist must have spiritual qualities, there must be a wedding, a consummation of forces.
Jung claimed that, "Archetypes are complexes of experience that come upon us like fate, and their effects are felt in our most personal life. The anima no longer crosses our path as a goddess, but, it may be, as an intimately personal misadventure, or perhaps as our best venture."

THE HOLY BROTHER
In 1779, St. Germain arrived in Altona in Schleswig. Here he bonded with his 'apprentice' Prince Karl of Hesse-Kassel, who also had an interest in mysticism and was a member of several secret societies. The Count showed the Prince several of his gems and revealed formulae for his new method of dying cloth. Prince Karl recognized St. Germain as a royal cousin, son of his own cousin Charlotte Amalie, daughter of Karl von Hessen-Wanfried and his wife, Julianne -- a cadet line of the House of Hesse under the sovereignty of the land of Hesse-Kassel.
The Prince was impressed and installed the wizend Count in Eckernförde with an abandoned factory that he specifically acquired for him. Karl supplied St. Germain with the materials and raw cloth he needed to proceed with the project. They met frequently over those years to pursue their mystical agenda together. The Prince built an elaborate initiatory garden and a Masonic tower with an observatory and underground laboratory for alchemical experiments in his nearby summer residence Louisenlund.
In the sanctuary of Louisenlund, among other things, they cooperated in creating gemstones and jewelry -- and initiating enlightened nobles and Masons. The Prince later recounts in a letter that he was the only person in whom the Count truly confided. He told the Prince that he was the son of the Transylvanian Prince Francis II Rákóczi, and was 88 years of age when he arrived in Schleswig.
FOREKNOWLEDGE & REFLECTION
St. Germain did not expand on his unusual education beyond his tutorial years with the Medici family in Florence - under the care of the last Duc de Medici (Gian Gastone) [Gian Gastone de Medici, 7th Grand Duke of Tuscany. He learned how to be a Watcher, a high-society spy. Hermetic, Qabalistic & Alchemical studies deal with our primordial nature as light beings capable of transformation and energetic communion with Cosmos. He obediently concealed his affiliation with the ancient Dragon-riders -- the Solomonarii -- deep in Transylvania at the Holy Mountain.
Awakening is an inexorable process of death. Without the sadness and humility of having to expunge one's former self, the new cannot be born. "When the believer has mastered his lower self, so that it serves as a riding mount beneath him, the deeds of his heart will shine forth upon his face. -- Al-Jilani (12th c. Sufi)
SERPENT POWER
Their mystical sisterhood, the Serpentaria, traces their legacy back to Delphi and beyond, perhaps back to Gobekli Tepe. The name "Pythia" derived from Pytho, which in myth was the original name of Delphi. The Greeks derived this place name from the verb, pythein (πύθειν, "to rot"), which refers to the decomposition of the body of the monstrous Python after she was slain by Apollo. The snake is universally a symbol of birth, new life, transformation, cosmic creation and divine knowledge and wisdom. She symbolizes the wounds of the heart and body she accepts as part of her existence, for feminine consciousness accepts the world as it is, with all its pain and suffering.
Serpents are a universal symbol seen during mind-altered states, including kundalini arousal. The Upper Mesopotamian cult of the dead used hallucinogenic substances, likely from mushrooms and grains, since serpents are a universal symbol seen during mind-altered states. A small seal that depicts the Serpent - Tree of life connection, also found in the Sumerian creation stories, was discovered there. Isis was shown as a serpent with a crown on top of her head. It echoes the Egyptian Uraeus snake, symbolizing enlightenment and immortality. The Sumerian Tiamat is the primordial Dragon Queen ancestor.
Zosimus' own sister, Theosebia, had a considerable reputation as an alchemist in her own right. But the most important of all the early female alchemists is Cleopatra, author of the classical Chrysopeia, or Gold-Making. In this work, collected with the "Isis the Prophetess" story in the 11th century Codex Marcianus, we find the earliest image of the Ouroboros serpent, biting it own tail. This masterful symbol of the cosmic cycle is half black and half white and encloses a brief Greek phrase meaning "the sum of all philosophy." To the Pythagoreans it symbolized the regeneration of the cosmos -- the place where we share one heart.
The “Solomonari” are not supernatural creatures, but humans who have learned special abilities -- blending masculine and feminine elements in the psyche. It is said that the children which will became “solomonar”, are born with different signs on them. Later, as the legend says, these children were chosen by experienced Solomonari, taken into forests or in caves, which were usually marked with coded inscriptions. There they learned the art and craft of wizardry, which they later used for fighting against the dark forces of nature and human spirit. They were healers, summoners, thaumaturgs and mastered the highest science and lore about the Universe.
"Students received their own 'book' at the end of their training, described as a stone talisman with nine mysterious letters in it. In any given situation, the solomonari concentrates on the book, and from it discerns what he should do" (Melton 604). Once initiated, they become full-fledged alchemists with the power to maintain the balance of nature and to preserve order" (Ramsland 20).
MAY THE HILLS TREMBLE
Vlad Tepes, a 15th-century Prince in Romania was known as Dracula, "Son of Dracul". His father was known as Dracul (or Dragon) in the Grail fraternity of the Ordo Draconis (The Imperial Court of the Dragon) from 1431. Vlad Dracul was a minion of Sigismund of Luxembourg, and was educated at the Emperor's court in Nuremberg. Dracul hit the political jackpot in 1431, with his investiture into Societas Draconis, and his investiture as Prince of Wallachia. There is no convincing evidence Vlad Tepes engaged in any folkloric vampire behavior before or after his death.
House Draculescu is heir to the House of Dracula. Later the Basarab house split from conflict between the Dănești and the Drăculești. These lines were in constant contest for the throne from the late fourteenth to the early sixteenth centuries. Descendants of the line ruled until 1600. Drăculeşti line began with Vlad II Dracul, one of the sons of one of the most important rulers of the Basarab dynasty, Mircea cel Bătrân. The name Drăculeşti is derived from the membership of Vlad II Dracul, "the Dragon," in the Order of the Dragon (founded 1408). One of the sons of Vlad II was Vlad III Drăculea, known also simply as "Dracula" (Son of Dracul).
Dracula learned the secrets of nature and magic at the Scholomance, an occult school that is described to lay nestled "amongst the mountains over Lake Hermannstadt, where the devil claims" every "tenth scholar as his due" (Stoker 383).
Vampire stems from the Anatolian word "vber" or "uber", and means "witch." In practical terms, a Scythian druid was an overlord, and so originally a vampire was an overlord, and hence a Dragon. The word in Greek is drakon; as in edrakon, a verb form of derkesthai, meaning 'to see clearly' in a sort of timeless or transcendent way. The truth of all truth is the ’Still Center of the Universe’, the all-seeing Eye -- numinous, transcendent and ineffable.
QUINTESSENCE: ELIXIR VITAE
A recipe for the tincture in Lancelot Colson’s Philosophia maturata instructs the alchemist to ‘increase the fire, till it [the matter for the Stone] be perfect yellow, and then again increase the fire, until it be red as Dragon’s blood’. (Abraham, pgs. 38-39)
Visible Darkness
Pineal DMT is the Universal Medineine, the Alchemical Elixir of longevity, bliss and light, produced in the retort vessel of the cranium. With this elixir one can live eternity in an instant, in each and every instant bathing in primordial light. The spark, or scintilla, in the human soul, represents the potential of psyche's reunification with the unconscious. The primal anthropos related to this spark, is symbolic of the "Self", the unification of a conscious, individuated personality with the full range of oppositions and archetypes in the unconscious mind.
Some shamanic cultures like the Kogi raise their spiritual leaders in the dark for their first 18 years. They communicate with the thought process that shapes and maintains reality, the source of life and intelligence to connect with this cosmic consciousness and, vitally. Darkness is a vital tool for self-discovery and initiation; time-distortion, empathy, dreams. Such visionaries can see the future and past, and through material illusions with clairvoyance and transcendence. They can travel to the land of the dead and into the hearts of the living.
Khunrath likened visible darkness to the scintilla, a shining splendour "of him alone who is the Mighty and Strong...the true Aqua Permanens, eternally living...radical moisture animated by the fiery spark of the World Soul, the light of nature." Khunrath writes that the “sparks” with many faces and many eyes come from the ruach elohim, the Spirit of God. The scintilla, the spark from 'the light of nature' is a symbol of the anima mundi. He calls them the Monad and the Sun. This light is the lumen naturae which illuminates consciousness, and the scintillae are germinal luminosities shining forth from the darkness of the unconscious. Dragon magic fundamentally relies in discovering simplicity and stillness within the self.
Legend says a permanent elixir of eternal life can be made from the heart of Count Dracula. St. Germain was naturally aware of this powerful and esteemed Transylvanian heritage. His ancestors were Princes of Transylvania -- Dragons in their own right. And he knew that Vlad preceded him as a Mage in the Solomon School, which taught him the secret of eating the Dragon's Heart, and the secrets of the Cosmos. Dragons blood elixir awakens many raw cosmic powers and forces.
When you are in the presence of divine love any sort of madness may overtake you, be swept up, be not afraid of the silent Saints, the worst that may happen is that you awaken to your own true self.
For uncounted Aeons, mankind witnessed the nightly drama of the heavenly bodies -- the fixed and wandering stars watched back. They rightly held the Precession panorama in awe, as periodically great catastrophes descended to Earth from the heavens. Eventually, an order was deduced from these nightly wanderings. Mankind sought to magically reflect this heavenly order on Earth and perhaps hold catastrophe at bay.
At the end of the 17th c. the Ottomans were expelled from Hungary, but the Habsburgs took advantage of a weakened and devastated Hungary to take over the entire country, including Transylvania. Although the Transylvanian Hungarian princes resisted in the early 18th c. against the Habsburg usurpation of the Hungarian Crown, they were unable to prevent it. Thus, Hungary came under the control of the Habsburg Empire.
Ferenc of Rákóczi, Prince of Transylvania was Head of the First Hungarian Liberation Battle for the re-establishment of Hungarian Kingdom Authority. In the fight for independence against the Habsburg Conquest all Hungarian people engaged in a spiritual struggle extending across centuries.
The first Habsburg King acquired the Hungarian throne by a deal unacceptable to the people. Hungarian elites ridiculed the Habsburg Clan and encouraged the Hungarian Royal State Formation. Independence of the Habsburg Clan, and the reestablishment of the Hungarian State Authority in her territory is the crucial movement cult of the Hungarian nation.
Joseph Rákóczi was the second son of Prince Ferenc Rákóczi and Amalie Princesse of Hessen, born in the French emigration of her father. The Conceptor and Head of the 2nd Hungarian Liberation's Battle against the Habsburg Empire was excommunicated by the Pope for this mission. In 1784, the Bavarian Illuminati, presumably including St. Germain in the shadows, attempted to overthrow the Hapsburgs. Comte de Saint Germain was also a rumored paid agent of the French Revolution. In other words – he was a spy for the Dragon Dynasty wherever he went.
The Comte de Saint Germain reputedly died around age 93 in February 1784 and was reportedly buried in a private grave at Nicolai Church (German St. Nicolaikirche) in Eckernförde, a German town in Schleswig-Holstein. It is well-known that the inventory of his probated goods did not include the expected gold, gems, or his treasured alchemical books, now called the Triangular MS and La Très Sainte Trinosophie (The Most Holy Trinosophia). Such items are conspicuous in their absence, though some may have been kept securely at Louisenlund, where they were collected by others.
EteRNA LOVE MAGIC
Still in the bloom of his powers, the Count fell most deeply in love in the Old Way with his own cousin, who was also his "sister" -- his Soror Mystica. She became his ritual "sister-wife". She gave birth to their son, from a Morganatic marriage during a brief secret sorjourn to Hungary to visit his family and fulfill this obligation, before a spy mission to Holland. This marriage bridge reinforced several branches of the Grail lines.
Symbiosis is - above all else - Harmony and Harmony is transcendence. Those who knew transcendent reality, in being able to read his or her own heart and mind, could read the hearts and minds of others. That transcendent potential was an essential part of the divine seership of Kings and Queens, the Gnosis of First Sight, by which they ruled. Dragon "nautioneers" have employed a similar process in their visionary explorations, navigating waves of Unborn Nothingness -- "travel without moving".
Altered States of Consciousness can be achieved through meditation, trauma, sleep disturbance, sensory deprivation or sensory overload, neurochemical imbalance, epileptic seizure, or fever. They may also be induced by frenzied dancing ("Spiral Dance of the Vortex" to honor the dead), drumming, or chanting. They may be induced by electrically stimulating parts of the brain or by ingesting psychotropic drugs, but foremost by Tantric sex.
This is like the bright moon in the sky, lightening up the world to view, penetrating darkness. One can then cease to employ effort involving increase and decrease, give up doing and enter non-doing. -- Liu Yiming (Commentary on Understanding Reality, part 1 #7)
The moon waxing to fullness is a secret passed on by word of mouth. The medicinal substances are hard to know, and the firing process is not easy to understand. Students should hasten to find a genuine teacher. -- Liu Yiming (Commentary on Understanding Reality, part 1 #7)
Apophenia is the experience of seeing meaningful patterns or connections in random or meaningless data. The term was coined in 1958 by Klaus Conrad, who defined it as the "unmotivated seeing of connections" accompanied by a "specific experience of an abnormal meaningfulness", but it has come to represent the human tendency to seek patterns in random nature in general, as with gambling, spiritual phenomenology, paranormal phenomena, arcane correspondences, synchronicities, religion, and even attempts at scientific observation. Or, perhaps, it is a relic of authentic holistic Vision -- the "clarity" of the Dragons.
THE SEPARATION
St. Germain's perpetual yearning for his Beloved shows in his English song titles, The Maid That's Made For Love and Me (O Wouldst Thou Know What Sacred Charms), and It Is Not That I Love You Less. Much like himself, the world knew nothing of their son, Isaac, and less about his Hungarian son Abraham and his wife Regina.
A marriage contract wherein the bride and the children of the marriage will not receive anything else (other than the dower) from the bridegroom or from his inheritance or clan, is dubbed a "marriage with only the dower and no other inheritance", i.e. matrimonium morganaticum.
The Latin term, applied to a Germanic custom, was adopted from a Germanic term, *morgangeba." The literal meaning is explained in a 16th-century passage as, "a marriage by which the wife and the children that may be born are entitled to no share in the husband's possessions beyond the 'morning-gift'", which is to say nothing about him re-possessing back that corporeal "gift" of non-dynastic status.
Dragon of Wisdom
But such unions have a far older lineage and purpose in the Dragon dynasties and neolithic Transylvanian history, as ritual and alchemical celebration of the ancient Brother-Sister Grail unions -- enactments of the Great Rite of hieros gamos, which is embedded in the line from pre-Sumerian times. For example, in the Song of Songs, in the Camelot tales of the Grail, Arthur engaged in such a marriage with his sister Morgana (producing Mordred) -- and those of the Serpentaria, the most archaic branch of the Grail maidens.
In the Mystery tradition of hieros gamos (sacred marriage) and the Gnostic tradition of spiritual marriage, we see the possibility of divine union in which sexual union is the principal sign or symbol. Key to these practices is the inner or archetypal union of above and below, the intermingling of the revelatory divine world with the mundane earthly one -- star-crossed lovers. These secret currents of sexual mysticism helped fuel the rise of the troubadours and their erotic doctrine, and the esoteric tradition of Jacob Böhme in the early 17th century.
MAGICAL MEDICINE
The Grail is Light, just as woman is light, and both are the light of the 'Sun'. Primal creator
goddesses continually giving birth to the world of Form out of Chaos. With their breath—a metaphor for the cosmic life-force—they kindle the cauldron of creation and bring our world into being.
Transcendent consciousness, (symbolized on the Tree of Life by Tiphareth, the solar Sphere), is embodied in the ancient 'Great Rite' of the Dragon families. The 'hierosgamos' is a symbolic and psychophysical act with neurological, epigenetic, and meta-genetic effects. Like the Rite of the Vampire, such rites are meant to enhance intelligence and promote longevity. Royal prerogatives were undertaken on a regular basis with selected partners.
Morganatic unions appear to be temporary in nature and abide until the initiation intended by the mystical union is completed, or becomes completed through the pain experienced at the sundering, which is the method by which the Sumaire is awoken and the fontaine de soif is made apparent. The mythical cycles vary according to the personalities involved, but if trouble ensues it is because of the breaking of some taboo, or the misconstruing of the nature of the relationship and the spiritual dynamic, usually by the male.
Discovered in the paleolithic era, shamanic sexuality is the legacy of the Great Goddess cultures. Rock womb-tombs were memorialized as megalithic monuments from the 11,000 year old labyrinth of the stars, Gobekli Tepe in Turkey, to the neolithic subterreanean Hypogeum of Malta, and later the world navel Delphi, whose root is δελφύς delphys, "womb".
Vagina-shaped ritual caves are found globally, but notably in the Balkans. Kashmir has a sanctuary called Garbhagriha, the house of the womb, where regeneration is effected and the higher self of the devotee is reborn. At Mycenæ, so-called “beehive” tombs were constructed as wombs of stone to receive the dead. The Sumerian word sal, means “vulva,” “womb,” and “woman.” Also, the Latin matrix carries the meanings “female cavity,” “womb,” “matron,” and “mother.” Other allusions include the Grail, cauldron of the deeps, Cauldron of Annwn, and cup -- secret chamber.
Philalethes tells us those proportions that it is necessary to respect in order to proceed to the Separation: “Let me tell you how this part of work is performed. Take 4 parts of our fiery Dragon, in whose belly is hidden the magic Chalybs, and 9 parts of our Magnet; mingle them by means of a fierce fire, in the form of a mineral water, the foam of which must be taken away. Remove the shell, and take the kernel. Purge what remains once more by means of fire and the Sun, which may be done easily if Saturn shall have seen himself in the mirror of Mars. Then you will obtain our Chameleon, or Chaos, in which all the virtues of our Art are potentially present.”
What the Soul Foretells
Jung said, "the archetypes of the collective unconscious... precipitate complexes of ideas in the form of mythological motifs. Ideas of this kind are never invented, but enter the field of inner perception as finished products, for instance in dreams. They are spontaneous phenomena which are not subject to our will, and we are therefore justified in ascribing to them a certain autonomy." Fata Morgana
Physiologically, Conjunction is using the body’s sexual energies for personal transformation. Conjunction takes place in the body at the level of the Heart - primordial life forms are created from the energy of the Sun or lightning. Psychologically, Conjunction is empowerment of our true selves, the union of both the masculine and feminine sides of our personalities into a sacred paradigm or intuitive state of consciousness.
The maid for whom his melody,
His thousand songs are heard on high,
Blooms blushing to her lover's tale:
His queen, the garden queen, his Rose,
Unbent by winds, unchilled by snows,
Far from winters of the west,
By every breeze and season blest,
Returns the sweets by Nature given
In soft incense back to Heaven;
And gratefu yields that smiling sky
Her fairest hue and fragrant sigh.
And many a summer flower is there,
And many a shade that Love might share...
~Lord Byron, The Giaor

The much heralded marriage of the King and Queen produces a state of consciousness best described as a feeling intellect, which can be purified to a state of perfect intuition, that Egyptian alchemists referred to as “Intelligence of the Heart.” This special kind of intelligence or way of knowing is at work in the alchemist, for s/he is born of the sacred marriage of masculine and feminine consciousness.

The Sundering
...And every tear he
shed, sullen eyed;
traced a shattered, ancient dream,
which in that dark despair and hopeless
silence died.
How could this be,
does grief end?
His soul desired much more
of her than man could know
or manners condescend.
She loved him once
but that withdrawn,
Never could he love again
as life’s hope from very life itself
was torn. The ouroboros dragon is an ancient alchemy symbol that symbolizes the
equality of the internal and external in the alchemist soul. HIDDEN HISTORY
Within years of his "death", the German town, on a small spit of land between a fjord the Baltic Sea and Windebyer Noor was struck by a giant storm that all but washed the church out to sea leaving the issue of his last remains, a moot point. The dragon-riders brewed up a mega-thuunderstorm. The 13 November 1872 Baltic Sea flood hit the coast from Denmark to Pomerania. Of all the German coastal settlements, Eckernförde was most heavily damaged due to its location on Eckernförde Bay which was wide open to the north-east. The entire town was flooded, 78 houses were destroyed, 138 damaged and 112 families became homeless. This 1872 storm surge destroyed his grave.
But this is not the story the family itself tells. Rather, as we shall see, his body was actually replaced by a log. The family claims he sank into a deep coma from porphyria, the family curse, and though declared dead in his catatonic state was spirited back to his homeland in Transylviania and returned to the Solomonarii, who had raised him from youth, protecting and hiding him from political adversaries. His is identity was safeguarded as a protective measure from the persecutions against the Hapsburg dynasty. His slumber, if it was slumber, was not sleep. They recognized his coma as a regenerative state induced with the Elixir. It felt like dying as the old self died to make way for the new.
St. Germain was attended by another of the secret brotherhood members -- a certain Dr. Victor Frankenstein -- whose ventures in reanimation rose to infamy around 1793, with the creation of his infamous creature. It is widely known that, as a boy, Frankenstein was interested in the works of alchemists such as Cornelius Agrippa, Paracelsus, and Albertus Magnus, and he longed to discover the fabled elixir of life. Therefore, the Doktor could hardly believe his great fortune. Later he becomes obsessed with the idea of creating life in inanimate matter through artificial means.
“Natural philosophy is the genius that has regulated my fate; I desire, therefore, in this narration, to state those facts which led to my predilection for that science. When I was thirteen years of age, we all went on a party of pleasure to the baths near Thonon: the inclemency of the weather obliged us to remain a day confined to the inn. In this house I chanced to find a volume of the works of Cornelius Agrippa. I opened it with apathy; the theory which he attempts to demonstrate, and the wonderful facts which he relates, soon changed this feeling into enthusiasm. A new light seemed to dawn upon my mind; and, bounding with joy, I communicated my discovery to my father. My father looked carelessly at the title page of my book, and said, "Ah! Cornelius Agrippa! My dear Victor, do not waste your time upon this; it is sad trash."
If, instead of this remark, my father had taken the pains to explain to me that the principles of Agrippa had been entirely exploded, and that a modern system of science had been introduced, which possessed much greater powers than the ancient, because the powers of the latter were chimerical, while those of the former were real and practical; under such circumstances, I should certainly have thrown Agrippa aside, and have contented my imagination, warmed as it was, by returning with greater ardour to my former studies. It is even possible that the train of my ideas would never have received the fatal impulse that led to my ruin. But the cursory glance my father had taken of my volume by no means assured me that he was acquainted with its contents; and I continued to read with the greatest avidity.” ― Mary Shelley, Frankenstein
RE-IGNITED
St. Germain, being merely comatose was much easier to awaken -- mere practice for Herr Doktor -- but naturally he was profoundly changed in the experimental process which shortcut the regeneration. Delta* brainwave range of deep dreamless sleep triggers the release of anti-aging Human Growth Hormone so beneficial for renewing energy, healing and regeneration. With an imperfect experimental process, his soul was 'saved' but not the body whose youthful appearance he had cultivated through his Elixir for so many years. Like the hapless monster yet to be created, he begins to yearn for his female companion, having exhausted the love of subject after subject.
Ye know not what you say, there is only me who can speak on this matter, I have exhausted all like the music that I abandoned, unable to go beyond.
Even dead in one sense, he was far more alive than ordinary human beings in another.
However, since those times the world of humans has profoundly changed and continues to do so. His hidden lineage has spread into several branches, as they do, and migrated to new continents. The family runs the Adamus Mining Corporation which engages in gold production, mineral exploration, mine development, and processing plant construction and commissioning activities. It owns a 90% interests in the Adamus Gold Project.
But, in the turmoil of his unusual 'life,' St. Germain's passion to regain his lost love remains.
She is the journey’s end and fulfillment of the his nature -- devotion to the feminine and surrender to the goddess, a love that sacrifices self even unto death.
Like the blood of Medusa, both poison and panacea, the Dragon solution is in the blood, in actualizing the powers inherent in dragon nature, being fearless to be superhuman, for the sake of all life. The Grail Quest and alchemical Great Work are also called "Opening the Eye of the Dragon." Gnosis lies at the heart of Dragon culture, which holds we should be at one with the Earth not presume dominion over it.
THE CIRCLES OF ADEPTS
Up to the 18th century, the adepts meet and work on similar concluding paths .
Let us cite two circles of this type:
* the German Order of the Golden Rosy Cross of the Ancient System and above all the Order of the Initiated Brothers of Asia, on distictly kabbalistic foundations. Cagliostro crossed Germany in 1779 where he participated to various alchemical and theurgical works in the Masonic milieu .
* the School of Naples-city where Cagliostro stayed in 1783- heiress to Chaldean, Egyptian and
Pythagorean currents . Its materials appear to have been Hebraic Kabalistics til the 18th century.
THE ARCANA ARCANORUM
‘As for the fourth furor [enthusism], coming from Venus, it turns and transmutes the spirit of man into a god by the ardour of love, and renders him entirely like God, as the true image of God.’ ~Agrippa
Solomonarii and Holy Mountain and Tablets in Sinaia
Solomonarii are Romanian tradition, witches, practicing magic, reckoned to be invested with miraculous powers, can have relationships with spirits. In the popular imagination, they straddles dragons and make heavenly ascension to stop or bring hail and lightning.
Romanian tradition says that wearing the garment solomonarii a white tundra, ragged, a bag in which he keeps his magical instruments and Solomonăriei book. Prospective solomonari were kidnapped by solomonarii when small and reared in Crug (center) learned all the languages of the earth where living creatures, all the secrets of nature and magic formulas, spells and charms. That they descend from the biblical King Solomon is doubtful.
At the foot of Bucegi climatic resort Sinaia, discovered a treasure consisting of lead plates, which according to some scholars, would write the history of the Dacian ancient times to the reign of Decebal and beyond. Bucurescu "Sinaia appears in tablets and most important leader after Decebal, unknown to our official history, but suggested the famous medieval German poem" Nibelungenlied "as the Ramunc or Siheger, as a result of the Vlachs. This is the liberator of Dacia, who initiated the return to the old traditions of the country and collection of legends divine or laymen, recorded in tablets in Sinaia. Variants of his name are Romanh Romans, Lomanh and very important, SO LOMONIUS means "The Light".
Attribute given the Dacian king, illuminates both texts enigma in Sinaia and origin of the shaman. They are descendants of the biblical King Solomon, but of the bright king of Dacia. The same tablets tell us that Solomonarii part of a mystical order headquartered in the city Babariului. This city can be made, however, about the rocks in the vicinity of the Bucegi Plateau, where neophyte named Babe after he was born the second time in his cave Zamolxe preparing to be born a third time three-fold Pillar of Heaven, the last stage of Bucegi temple initiatives.
Therefore, in Sinaia tablets seem to be written by solomonari, descendants of those kapnobatai "travel through the clouds" which Strabo speaks. The work of these "wizards" fountain of the race of monks Dacian kapnobatai and ktistai, activity remained unaltered Holy Mountain until today. And did those monks of the hermitage Ialomita, who built the cave cells Zamolxe and know about the Mountain Spirit are heirs and guardians of the temple mysteries of Bucegi? The future will enlighten us on this.
Man is devoured by time and history, not while he lives but because he believes in the reality of time infallible, forgetting and disregarding Eternity.
The neophyte was born the second time in his cave Zamolxe after training on the second level, Babe Plateau. Once initiated he arrives at the third level (altar or shrine main pillar of heaven three-fold) reaching the divine initiation, the center of the world. KOGAION, huge natural temple is the archetypal symbol. Model for all the ancient temples of mysteries about religions involving a second birth.
Count St. Germain's story mirrors Arthur’s quest for the Cauldron of Creation -- a search for the cosmic power that underlies all manifest life and is embodied by the divine feminine and her sacred vessel. It is this which lies at the heart of all later stories of the Holy Grail. Sex was the all-pervasive link to the divine in paganism.
Sexual energy is the primary experience of the human body. It is an energy which can be active on both a physical and a spiritual level. From 40-50,000 years ago sex was sacred because they didn't know what it was, but everything human began with it -- symbolically, mythically, metaphorically, and literally. Sexual healing has a long and distinguished tradition. The history of sex is the history of power, politics, and religion.
When you want to have sex with a god or goddess you enter the temple. Sacred intimates combine the roles of priest, prostitute, and psychotherapist. In other words, they approach sexuality with the understanding that it's related to soul work and to spirituality. As in alchemy, this connection is deepened by introducing certain practices and rituals that involve the sharing of energies and "fluids‟ in the ultimate sacrament.
Magic and sexuality were central for the ancient Egyptians, and their practices may have contributed to the Elysian Mysteries. Western thought and culture has been influenced much more deeply by the East than Western scholars have generally supposed. Alexander brought Brahmins and Sannyasins back from India, along with their philosophies.
Following the Tantric, Taoist and Sufi arts, Western sexual mysticism remained underground and secret because it was heretical and could bring an Inquisition. Those who know, know - and those who know not will simply not believe. The Cross (ankh) is both Death and Generation, and it is on the Cross that the Rose blooms in regeneration. Rosicrucian means the male cross and female rose combined.
We are looking at a knowledge of the transmutational powers of sex. Jung later called the Invisible Partners, anima and animus. The active meditation expands consciousness to a realm beyond the senses. Sacred sexuality deepens intimacy and expands consciousness, in a way to achieve freedom from limitations and to join with the Divine. Worshipful, enthusiastic, intimate sexuality is a pathway to the dissolution of the ego. The true peak is the union into One with Cosmos.
According to Nicholas Roerich, St. Germain was "a member of the Himalayan brotherhood." In 1755 he traveled throughout Eurasia to study occult teachings, and may even have visited Tibet. It is said that while studying occultism in Central Asia the Count was introduced to the secret rites of Tantric sex magic which provided him with a technique to prolong his youth. He founded two secret societies called the Asiatic Brethren and the Knights of Light.
An underground tradition, a tantric cult existed in Provence at the time of the Troubadours that inspired their poetry, after a thousand years of underground existence as Gnostic heresy. Crusaders learned it from Arab mystics and Sufis, as did St. Germain, who then instructed Cagliostro. Some, like Hassan i Sabbah, founder of the Ishmaelian sect of Islam, who used both drugs and tantric sex to produce psychedelic experiences -- meta-sex with tantric transcendence. Such altered states of consciousness lead to the realization of potential divinity.
Alchemists in the 16th and 17th century, such as Marsilio Ficino, Giordano Bruno, Thomas Vaughn and Basil Valentine, conducted Tantric experiments with alchemy. Alchemy is the symbolic language of transformation. St. Germain naturally knew of such works. Rosicrucian manifestos, such as The Alchemical Marriage of Christian Rosycross echo Bruno's Tantrism.
No longer ordinary people, the ritual couple are the inspired Prince and Princess of Alchemy. The elixir is placed in the alembic retort to be subjected to the gentle warmth in the Great Work of transubstantiation. In the Hermetic Gnosis of alchemy the Mage is created divine with divine powers and is in the process of again becoming divine. It is not merely metaphorical. In the operation of Venus, one achieves reunion with the divine. The pentagram is the symbl of Venus, describing her orbit, as astronomers know.
At Versailles, Cagliostro encountered the Count Saint Germain, who insisted that women as well as men not only should be admitted to the rite, but that the inner most secret of freemasonry necessitated that this be so.
At the level of Master, an opportunity is offered to the Egyptian Brother or the Sister to engage in the famous “Quarantine”, two operations of transmutation, lasting 40 days each. In Egypt it took 40 days to dessicate and embalm a mummy to prepare it for the next world before it is washed, oiled wrapped and resined. This is also consistent with modern Dark Room Retreat practices and those from Tibetan Buddhism.
The first Quarantine: "How to achieve the Pentagon and become morally perfect" has to be practiced by thirteen Masters together. Strongly hybridized with magic-cabalistic elements, occasionally reminiscent of the Sacred Magic of Abramelin, had the purpose of sharpening the subtle faculties of the Master’s body of glory to give him the capacity to correctly explain the enigmatic instructions of the second Quarantine: “How to rejuvenate and become physically perfect”.
These circles of adepts involved themselves in the study of three distinct domains,
but in permanent interrelation, for each contributes to the realization of the other two :
1. A theurgic system of invocation of the Holy Guardian Angel or of a
pluraity of angels. The invocations of the eon guide and those of four,
seven, nine angels come down to us from this time.
2. Practice of metallic alchemy in the laboratory. The texts that were given
to me to consult, work with antimony.
3. Practice of internal alchemies, using the processes and
substantial qualities of the physical body considered as an athanor, this
“oven of constant temperature of the alchemists “. Every element, every
stage of metallic alchemy finds its correspondences in the body of the adept.
This effects a permanent way of Return between the exterior Work and the interior Work.
The Arcana Arcanorum insists on theurgy, as a key to open the way to the practice of metallic and internal alchemies. They suggest a technique of making contact with the aeon guides whom he takes to relay to him the unveiled secrets of internal alchemy. As Cagliostro learned from St. Germain, by the pentagons, he “orders the immortals in the name of God” with the “effect of obliging or ordering the aerial spirits, and of doing many marvels and of miracles”.
http://digilander.libero.it/iniziazioneantica/Cagliostro/Alchemy_CagliostroandArcanaArcanorum_%5Benglish%5D.pdf
Theurgy helps the initiate “ become morally perfect”. This path rests on the classic pattern of death and of rebirth. The initiate dies to the darkness in which humanity fell in order to be born again to a superior life. This “perfection” is performed by rites where the symbolism is present from the beginning, but is not explained and illustrated other than progressively and in sections as the of the candidate progresses. It is the model for the ceremonies of Egyptian Masonry.
The Arcana Arcanorum is the theurgical evocation of one or several angels by talisman, seals, pentagons or other techniques. Far from being an end in itself, this evocation marks the beginning of a path. Benefiting from the aid of the Guardian Angel or evoked angels, the initiate undertakes the process of transmutation. The incorruptible body of light, the
soma psychikon, is the golden wedding garment.
Breathing of the Heart
Cagliostro suggests that after moral (or psychic) regeneration, that intensifies his faculties, an initiate is ready to regenerate physically. During the second quarantine which is repeated every fifty years, the adept attempts to become physically as well as morally perfect. After 40 days of physical ordeals, the initiate is rejuvenated and perfectly recreated. Thanks to the strengths thus acquired, the regenerated man will be able to “ propagate the truth, annihilate vice, destroy idolatry and spread the glory of the Eternal”.
An older method of rejuvenation is described in the Thesaurorum thesaurus, a complex manual used by the Golden Rosy Cross, dated 1580, but certainly more recent. “How one uses Magic in order to change their nature and become young again “ describes
a magic retirement of forty days in very similar terms.
The German text requires taking the Lapis Medicilanis Macrocosmi, obtained by laboratory alchemy and rainwater. It is necessary to add a “ stone of the philosophers” obtained by distilling your own blood. Cagliostro gave a similar reference to blood. Cagliostro and the Thesaurus also refer to “grains of Materia Prima”. These formulas to recover lost youth appear perilous. They testify to the medical aspect of this action -- to benefit oneself and others. The ancient Rose Cross practiced hermetic medicine by applying powers acquired for the recovery of others.
The magic circle, dragon's eye and the labyrinth all allude to goal of Courtly Love. The "depths of the sea and the earth" refer directly to the womb, and eclipse to the union of the alchemical brother and his soror mystica -- Frater and Soror. All treasures flow forth or come from that Royal Union. It is more than a metaphor. It is ignition of the alchemy of Transcendence and a cocktail of hormones and pineal DMT, the spirit molecule. As such, it is the Holy Grail of magic, alchemy, and qabalah -- spiritual rebirth.
The "mystic triangle" is the metaphysical bedrock of Rosicrucian philosophy. The Rosicrucians claim Saint Germain and that they, like him, held the secret to immortality. He was the highly revered 'Obermohr' of many mystic brotherhoods. He belongs to old Vienna swirling with Rosicrucians, Illuminates, Alchemists, Magnetopaths, Thaumaturgists, and Templars. He was a living example of the power and fullness of the path.
CRISIS & TRANSFORMATION
Only a dead man can be explained in terms of the past...
Life is not made up of yesterdays only...
"I depart. Search for me. At some point you will see me again."
"I return to the small and the real, for this is the great way, the way of what is to come.
I return to my simple reality, to my undeniable and most minuscule being.
And I take a knife and hold court over everything that has grown without measure and goal.
The depths are inexhaustible, they give everything. Everything is as good as Nothing.
Keep a little and you have something."
WHAT PRICE IMMORTALITY?
Count St. Germain faces personal and metaphysical dilemmas against a background of a dying, corrupt, globalist culture, facing environmental collapse. Catastrophes recorded in ancient sources were traumas common to all mankind. Purged from common memory they are now interpreted as allegories and the trauma submerged in the unconscious. Now, we are awakening from collective amnesia, sensing a major threat is near. Yes, the End is each and every moment passing. Now is always the endless immensity of Eternity.
Blessed with Wisdom, Longevity, and Wealth, St. Germain was probably the most passionately liberated man in 18th c. Europe and arguably of today. His real devotion, however, is to magic...and the search for his own soul which impels him forward.
MAGISTER MAGISTRORUM
Concerning the chaos itself, I must tell you it is not rainwater nor dew, but it is a subtle mineral moisture, a water so extremely thin and spiritual, with such a transcendent, incredible brightness, there is not in all Nature any liquor like unto itself. In plain terms, it is the middle substance of the wise men's Mercury, a water that is coagulable and which may be hardened by a proper heat into stones and metals. Hence it was that the philosophers called it their Stone.
I say they called it a Stone, to the end that no man might know what it was they called so. For there is nothing in the world so remote from the complexion of a stone, for it is water and no stone. Now what water it is I have told you already, and for your better instruction I shall tell you more. It is a water made by Nature, not extracted by the hands of man. Nor is it mere water but a spermatic, viscous composition of water, earth, air and fire. All these four natures unite in one crystalline, coagulable mass, in the form or appearance of water; and therefore I told you it was a water made by Nature.
But because I will not deprive you of help which I may lawfully communicate, I tell you that our preparation is a purgation. Yet do not we purge by common and ridiculous sublimations or the more foolish filtrations, but by a secret, tangible, natural fire. He that knows this fire, and how to wash with it, knows the key of our Art, even our hidden Saturn, and the stupendous, infernal lavatory of Nature. Much more could I say concerning this fire and the proprieties thereof, it being one of the highest mysteries of the creation, a subject without question wherein I might be voluminous, and all the way mysterious, for it relates to the greatest effects of magic.
The first matter is a miraculous substance, one of which you may affirm contraries without inconvenience. It is very weak and yet most strong. It is excessively soft and yet there is nothing so hard. It is one and all, spirit and body, fixed and volatile, male and female, visible and invisible, burns and burns not. It is water and wets not; it is earth that runs and air that stands still. In a word, it is Mercury, the laughter of fools and the wonder of the wise, nor has God made anything that is like him. He is born in the world, but was extant before the world.
In the bottom of this well lies an old dragon, stretched long and fast asleep. Awake her if you can, and make her drink; for by this means she will recover her youth and be serviceable to you forever. "The children of light delight in the words of the wise, because they are light unto their feet and direct their paths. "Why is a man ill?" asks the pupil. "By reason of his disobedience to the light," says the Rabbi. Ponder then on the words of the Holy Qabalah and let it heal all your infirmities." —From an Ancient Commentary on the Zohar
AULA LUCIS, THE HOUSE OF LIGHT
First, that the first matter of the Stone is the very same with the first matter of all things; secondly, that in this matter all the essential principles or ingredients of the Elixir are already shut up by Nature, and that we must not presume to add anything to this matter but what we have formerly drawn out of it; for the Stone excludes all extractions but what is distilled immediately from its own crystalline, universal minera; thirdly and lastly, that the philosophers have their peculiar secret metals, quite different from the metals of the vulgar, for where they name Mercury they mind not quicksilver, where Saturn not lead, where Venus and Mars not copper and iron, and where Sol or Luna not gold or silver. This Stone verily is not made of common gold and silver, but it is made, as one delivers it, "of gold and silver that are reputed base, that stink and withal smell sweetly; of green, living gold and silver to be found everywhere but known to very few."
Matter — as I have formerly intimated — is the house of light. When he first enters it, it is a glorious, transparent room, a crystal castle, and he lives like a familiar in diamonds. He has then the liberty to look out at the windows; his love is all in his sight: I mean that liquid Venus which lures him in; but this continues not very long. He is busy — as all lovers are and labors for a closer union, insinuates and conveys himself into the very substance of his love, so that his heat and action stir up her moist essences, by whose means he becomes an absolute prisoner. For at last the earth grows over him out of the water, so that he is quite shut up in darkness; and this is the secret of the eternal God, which He has been pleased to reveal to some of His servants, though mortal man was never worthy of it. I wish it were lawful for me to enlarge myself in this point for religion's sake, but it is not safe or convenient that all ears should hear even the mysteries of religion.
Trismegistus, in his vision of the creation, did first see a pleasing, gladsome light, but interminated. Afterwards appeared a horrible sad darkness, and this moved downwards, descending from the eye of the light, as if a cloud should come from the sun. This darkness — saith he — was condensed into a certain water, but not without a mournful, inexpressible voice or sound, as the vapors of the elements are resolved by thunder. After this — saith that great philosopher — the Holy Word came out of the light and did get upon the water, and out of the water He made all things. Let it be your study then — who would know all things — to seek out this secret water, which hath in itself all things. This is the physical and famous Pythagorean cube, which surprises all forms, and holds them prisoners.
To be plain, I am silenced, and though it be in my power to speak, yet I have laws as to this subject which I must not transgress. I have chosen therefore to oppose my present freedom to my future necessity, and to speak something at this time which I must never publicly speak hereafter. There is no defect in ought that I have written, if I but tell you one thing which the philosophers have omitted. It is that which some authors have called "the Vessel of Nature and the Green Vessel of Saturn"; and Miriam calls it the Vessel of Hermes.
A menstrous substance it is; and — to speak the very truth — it is the matrix of Nature, wherein you must place the universal sperm as soon as it appears beyond its body. The heat of this matrix is sulphurous, and it is that which coagulates the sperm; but common fire — though it be most exactly regulated — will never do it; and in this opinion see that you be not deceived. This matrix is the life of the sperm, for it preserves and thickens it; but beyond the matrix it takes cold and dies, and nothing effectual can be generated thereof. In a word, without this matrix you will never coagulate the matter nor bring it to a mineral complexion.
ULTRA-TERRESTRIAL
The presence of visible and invisible is what fuels your life ... the Unseen do not ask for much, only not to be forgotten. The myths remain invisibly among us.
I have resolved with myself to discourse of Light,
the powder of projection, and to deliver it over to the hands of posterity, a practice certainly very ancient and first used by those who were primordially wise.
Oh Lord of the Universe, the Vast and Mighty One,
Ruler of the Light and the Darkness,
We adore Thee and we invoke Thee.
Look now with favor upon me, who standeth before Thee.
And grant Thine aid unto the highest aspirations of my soul,
that I may be enabled to accomplish the Great Work,
to the 'glory of Thine Ineffable Name, Aumgn

His genius was in demand everywhere and he travels worldwide to fulfill his missions His ways have changed with the times, becoming more scientific and precise, among them brainwave synchronization in resonant chambers with sensory deprivation or isolation tanks, and Dark Retreat initiations, using aspects of eastern and western mysticism.
The Myth of Human Progress and the Enlightenment have given way to what Is --
a corrupt self-defeating civilization -- a mania for hope, full of obsessions and destructive fantasies of expansion. The difference this time is that when we go down the whole planet will go with us. There will, with this final collapse, be no new lands left to exploit, no new civilizations to conquer, no new peoples to subjugate. The long struggle between the human species and the earth will conclude with the remnants of the human species learning a painful lesson about unrestrained greed, hubris and idolatry. Collapse comes throughout human history to complex societies not long after they reach their period of greatest magnificence and prosperity.
This is the story of how St. Germain went from Wonderman to eternally wandering Journeyman.
IMMORTALITY BELIEFS HARDWIRED
By examining children's ideas about "prelife," the time before conception, researchers found results which suggest that our bias toward immortality is a part of human intuition that naturally emerges early in life. And the part of us that is eternal, we believe, is not our skills or ability to reason, but rather our hopes, desires and emotions.

The goal of the spiritual art of alchemy is to unite the opposites — to integrate the conscious and the unconscious, to unlock the light encoded and imprisoned within the darkness. The light within the darkness itself is known as the lumen naturae, the inner living light of primordial, ever-present, non-dual awareness itself, which is the light of nature that literally lights-up the whole of creation in this and every moment. To see the light that is hidden in the darkness is to become conscious, which, alchemically speaking, frees the spirit that is hidden and trapped inside the materialized world.
The art of alchemy itself is an expression that hidden in the darkness is light. The alchemists, Jung says, “discover that in the very darkness of nature a light is hidden, a little spark without which the darkness would not be darkness…the lumen naturae is the light of the darkness itself, which illuminates its own darkness, and this light the darkness comprehends” In contrast to a light that, as the Bible says, “shineth in darkness, and the darkness comprehended it not,” the lumen naturae, the light of lights, is a light that the darkness intimately recognizes as its own nature. The lumen naturae is the luminosity within the darkness recognizing itself as it illumines its own darkness. This archetypal experience of the luminescence of the divine being found in the translucent darkness is referred to in various mystical traditions by names such as the luminous darkness and the black sun. --Paul Levy, http://www.awakeninthedream.com/wordpress/the-light-of-darkness/ * Delta range (0.5 hz - 4 hz): Deep dreamless sleep, trance, suspended animation; Anti-aging.
