Alchemical Tenets
None
Solve Et Coagula
Ideas descend from above; harmony rises from below.
Every object and system is corruptible.
Of things that are, some are in body, some in
idea.
All that is apparent, is what was generated or
made.
Generation begins with the mind, not the hands.
All things are but imitations of truth.
As above, so below.

“The Image shall become thy Guide, because Sight hath this
peculiar charm, it holdeth fast and draweth unto it those who succeed in opening their eyes.”
