IT IS
FINISHED WHEN THE SEVEN ARE ONE
Greetings,
This special Talisman Is based on this famous alchemical axiom which
states that the great work is finished only when the seven active principles,
as are reflected by the seven visible
planets,
are
returned to the one, which is
analogous to the Sun itself.
Limited
Edition!
Will be assembled on August 7th between 5:30-6:35 GMT+3
When the Solar energy is most authentic and powerful, which is when the
Sun is in its own Sign of Leo. This is the purest expression of the
Solar principle, therefore the best time to invoke the Unity of the Sun
in us.
Hermetic, platonic and neo-platonic cosmological models all start with
the One and undivided ultimate existence which gradually emanates into
different generative principles, in different levels of being. The One
is considered the source of all there is, to which all must return.
The One
is associated with the Sun as
the single center and source of generative life force for our system.
The Sun emanates its light and life to all its
“moons” which are all the planets In our solar
system. As the light is reflected back from the different moving
celestial bodies it is actually
reflecting different
aspects of the Sun (the One)
therefore dividing different active powers from it. the other six
classical Planets are the main reflective bodies, as experienced from
earth, as they are the strongest in reflecting the Sun's light, and
therefore visible.
The classical planets (including the Sun) correspond to the seven
active principles in the soul and in nature. In alchemy they also
correspond to the seven primary metals.
The alchemical axiom is also interpreted in this metallurgic alchemical
sense, as all metals come from gold (which corresponds to the Sun) then
all metals must return to gold.
The drawing for the Talisman comes out of a manuscript entitled
“Paradoxa
Emblemata”, which
was written in the 18th century by the Christian mystic D.A. Freher
(1649–1728) who was inspired by the work of the german mystic
and theologian Jacob Böhme
(1575 – 1624), in this case specifically the book entitled
“De signatura rerum” (the signatures of all things)
which is a book on magical natural philosophy and alchemy.
From the book:
“The
curse of God has entered the seven figures, so they are in conflict
with one another. Just as the human will was transformed into eternal
sun, calm in God, so in the Philosophical Work must all figures be
transformed into one, into Sol (Sun). From seven must come one, and yet
it remains in seven but in one desire, as every figure desires the
others in love, so there is no longer any conflict.”
For this Talisman, we have chosen the time when the Solar energy is
most authentic and powerful, which is when the Sun is in its own Sign of Leo.
This is the purest expression of the Solar principle, therefore the
best time to invoke the Unity of the Sun in us.
On the outer circle of the Talisman we see all the planetary glyphs
individually and inside the inner
circle they are all superimposed on one another, making an intricate
and complex synergetic symbol of their combined forces.
