strive to prove man the miniature of Deity。 Further along�察 �he explains
himself by pointing out the real Law of Correspondence�察�thus�此 �Melissa is
not only in the garden�察 �but also in the air�察 �and in Heaven。 Saturn is not
only in the sky�察�but also deep in the ocean�察�and Earth。; The illustrations are
beautiful�察 �The life of the plant�察 �the ;anima floralis�察─ �pervades the
atmosphere and the interior states of spiritual life�察�where it becomes in the
highest degree beautiful�察�and beneficial to the soul。 A reference upon this
point to ;The Light of Egypt; Vol。�察�I�察�may not be considered out of place。
Upon page 74 it is written�此 �The flower that blooms in beauty�察�breathing
forth to the air its fragrance�察�which is at once grateful to the senses and
stimulating to the nerves�察 �is a perfect specimen of Nature's faultless
mediumship。 The flower is a medium for the transmission to the human
body of those finer essences�察�and of THEIR SPIRITUAL PORTION TO
THE SOUL�察�for the aroma of the flower is spiritualized to such a degree
as to act upon the life currents of the system�察 �imparting to the spiritual
body a nutriment of the finest quality。;
Thus�察 �here is where the knowledge of the alchemical attributes of
plants�察�as applicable to man�察�can be most beneficially utilized。 Plants and
flowers�察 �whose attributes and aromas harmonize with the complex
organism of man�察�should be selected for the house and garden�察�for�察�they
are mediums to transmit the finer essences and aromas to the spiritual
constitution of man�察�the plant to the physical�察�and the aromas and essences
of the flowers to the soul。
Antipathies in plants and flowers would bring a similar evil influence�察�
as the discords of the antagonistic human magnetism。 It would not be so

apparent�察�but more subtle�察�yet nevertheless effective in result。
Our attention is next drawn to the planet Saturn�察 �which�察 �we are
informed�察�is not only shining in his starry sphere of the heavens�察�but is also
buried in the ocean depths and embodied in the stratas of the earth。 It is
almost needless to add that�察�our author refers to those substances naturally
Saturnine in their quality of life and expression�察 �such as lead�察 �clay�察 �and
coal�察�among the minerals�察�and various deadly plants among the flora�察�the
chief of which is the aconite or monkshood�察�so significant of Saturn and
the isolated�察�monkish hermit。 After some repetition�察�in order to impress the
truth of correspondences�察�our author exclaims�此 �What is the human body
but a constellation of the same powers that formed the stars in the sky�拭─�
Truly�察 �what else�拭 �for�察 �he who knows Mars knows the qualities of iron�察�
and he who knows what iron is knows the attributes of Mars。; Could
anything be plainer�拭�We think not。
From the foregoing�察 �which a long experience and much critical
investigation and research have demonstrated as true�察�we cannot avoid the
conclusion that Alchemy�察�equally as well as every other science�察�religion�察�
or system of philosophy formulated by man�察�resolves itself�察�ultimately�察�in
all its final conclusions�察�into the one universal parent of all wisdom。
ASTROLOGY�察�the Science of the Stars�察�in unison with the Science of
the Soul�察 �was�察 �and still is�察 �the one sublime center of real learning。 It
constituted the sacred fountain of living waters�察�from whose placid depths
there rayed forth the Divine revelations of man�察�his whence�察�where�察 �and
whither�察�and under the careful conservation of a long line of gifted seers�察�it
shone forth to the sons of men�察�as the sacred Hermetic light in the Astro´
Masonic wisdom of Egypt's ancient priesthood。
It is not lost to us to´day。 The same book lies open before us that faced
our ancient forefathers。 It is standing out clear and distinct�察�waiting to be
read by the sons of men。 We can learn its language�察�and from its pages�察�we
ourselves can read our relation to God and our fellowman。 Shall we not
heed the whispering intuitions of the soul and place ourselves in conscious
rapport with the whole�拭�
This sublime Book of Wisdom was written by God Himself�察�to convey
to His children the knowledge of His powers�察�attributes�察�and relation to all

creative life。 We cannot see that Divine Spirit which we call God。 No�察�but
as long as the finite form exists as such�察 �we will have the spirit's
manifestations to learn from。 Never will the Book of God be closed to the
searching eye of the soul。 There will always be presented to his vision
lessons to study�察�and practical experiments to perform�察�to lead the soul into
deeper mysteries。 Until man fathoms his own universe�察 �he cannot
understand God。 ;Know thyself; is as applicable to´day as when the
famous�察�immortal and mystic utterance was inscribed on the porch of the
temple at Delphi。
Before this wonderful�察�divinely elaborated�察�but complex system can be
fully realized�察 �it is necessary that the student should comprehend�察 �very
distinctly�察 �the two states of existence�察 �the internal and the external�察 �and
become familiar with the laws of correspondences。 And it seems strange
that of all Sciences�察�that of medicine should have so completely failed to
grasp this living truth�察 �since every atom of medicine administered�察�
invariably acts upon this alchemical principle。 When the human organism
has become discordant in some of its parts�察 �it is because the interstellar
vibrations have aroused various states within the human kingdom into a
condition of rebellion against the supreme will。 Man's ignorance favors
such seditious movements�察 �and his general habits and code of morals
stimulate them to undue activity。 The final result is disease
disorganization of the parts and functions�察 �and those medicines
corresponding TO THE SAME FUNCTIONAL DEGREE OF LIFE
WITHIN THE GRAND MAN�察 �cure the disorder�察 �when administered
properly and IN TIME�察�whereas�察�if given to the perfectly healthy organism�察�
THE ATOMS PRODUCE SIMILAR SYMPTOMS TO THE DISEASES
THEY ALLEVIATE�察 �because it is their mission to either subdue or be
subdued�察�and when disease prevails the medicinal atoms�察�acting in unison
with the natural parts and functions they affect�察 �conquer or subdue the
inharmony�察 �and vice versa�察 �as before stated。 In all cases of disease and
medicine�察 �it is a simple question of A WAR BETWEEN THE ATOMS�察�
and�察�therefore�察�the most potential forces within Nature are always at the
command of the true Alchemist�察�because he knows bow and when to select
his fighting forces�察�and when to set them in motion�察�for the best results。

Hahnemann�察�the founder of the Homeopathic system�察�has approached
THE NEAREST to this alchemical truth�察�and as a consequence�察�we find it
is in actual practice�察�the most natural�察�scientific�察�and successful system of
medicine�察�yet
