Projective Mythology Series #1 These are not fables. You will touch with your hands, see with your eyes the Mercury of Philosophers which alone will suffice for you to obtain our remedy. Darkness will appear on the face of the Abyss, Night, Saturn and the Antimony of the Sages; blackness and the raven's head of the alchemists, and all the colors of the world will appear at the hour of conjunction as well as the peacock's tail. After the work has passed from ashen-colored to white and yellow, the Stone will appear diaphanous as crystal, compact and weighty, as easily fusible by fire as resin, as flowing as wax and quicksilver, the color of saffron, red as rubies... - Heinrich Khunrath, Amphitheatrum Considering the alchemical sensibility of Paracelsus, Heinrich Khunrath and Robert Fludd advancing through the insights of spiritual science, Musica Mercurialis Viva explores the complex nature of the human microcosm through somatic, psychodynamic, elemental and celestial motifs. Here, through psychoemblemata - visually woven imagery of soul - the present-day intellect is invited to convene an impression of the supersensible alongside a refreshed perspective regarding cosmic aspiration. Andrew Franck is a philosopher whose interests include the history of consciousness, Goethean science and somatic psychology. He has worked with such notables as Reiner Schurmann, Quentin Lauer, Manfred Riedel, Ronald Brady, Otto Wolff, Klaus Wilde, Robert Sardello and Alfred Tomatis. His writings include The Transparent Bride, Mantras and Musical Solutions, The Art of Porosity and The Holy Bodies Circuit and Number & Spell. andrewfranck.net
