Themis Aurea, or Laws of the Fraternity of the Rosie Cross, is a book written by the German alchemist Michael Maier in the early 17th century. The book is a collection of 18 tracts that describe the beliefs, practices, and teachings of the mysterious Fraternity of the Rosie Cross, also known as the Rosicrucians.Maier, who was a prominent alchemist and physician in his time, claimed to have been initiated into the Fraternity and was therefore able to provide a detailed account of their inner workings. The tracts cover a wide range of topics, including alchemy, astrology, magic, and the nature of God.The book is written in a highly symbolic and allegorical style, which was typical of alchemical texts of the time. It is also heavily influenced by Christian mysticism and Hermetic philosophy, which were popular among alchemists and occultists of the Renaissance period.Overall, Themis Aurea is a fascinating glimpse into the world of the Rosicrucians and their esoteric beliefs and practices. It remains an important text for those interested in the history of alchemy, occultism, and Western esotericism.1656. This work was originally written in Latin and now in English for the information of those who seek after the knowledge of that honorable and mysterious society of wise and renowned philosophers, whereto is annexed an Epistle to the Fraternity in Latin, from some in England.
