One Matter - One Vessel - One Fire

[Christophorus]

Hello all.

Finished reading it. Many good things were presented through those 40 pages. From the practical, very well documented, and extremely erudite approaches to the ones more open-minded, there's a lot to digest.

My understanding of the process is:

1st - gather the magnets that we going to use to attract the Essense.
2th - let the magnets putrify.
3rd - separate the fezes released from the magnets
4th - put the magnets in the vial/vessel and seal it in a way that permits communication from/to in/out.
5th - Put it to the fire - gentle and constant - and let the magnets attract our supra-substantial mater

@all
All help is very much welcomed. I know that sometimes it's hard to restart an old topic, but hey... I was not here then! and a forum is a living, ongoing, open to new people place!

Let's revive this?

Give it a try, i guess.

The putrifaction sublimation distillation is all one process.
Happening at once.
The feaces are the diamond of the work.
The fire is not gentle and gentle at the same time.
To weak and mercury doesnt fix. To strong and you burn the radical moisture instead of it drying up.
The mercury is also called the fire, because it has its own internal heat. Mercurys nature is fire, it was created through fire, so authors named it a true salamander as well.
The fire doesnt attract any matter to the mercury.
Mercurys wings are clipped, his feet cut. He is fixed.
He dies over and over. Fixed dissolved coagulated.
There eventually is a marriage between his fixed earth and his watery vapour, producing a condensed air.
The condensed air is a result of the fire bridging the gap between water and earth.
All in one vessel after preparation, extracting mercury..

Hello Kibric.

Thank you for your comment. I'm considering some other posts and topics from the forum and looking at other classic sources. I will give it a try after collecting the Dew next week.

What was occurring in my flask was totally unlike what others were doing and quite frankly more akin to what was so cryptically being said in the alchemic literature.
In my excitement, I posted on the BoAf of my findings and what followed was pure hell. Seriously, it was my first time participating on a public forum and the attacks that I received were fierce.

I use to hang out around websites where people claimed to be able to do all kinds of psychokinetic abilities. They claimed to be ''Otherkin''. These people claimed to be able to Astral Project, and would call me a troll and be mean to me because I could actually do the real thing and when I'd try to tell them that Astral Projection is not playing in their imagination and make-belief. These people would have ''battles'' in the chat rooms, TOTAL larping. Book of Aquarius guy made a forum section for you, the psychokinetic site (the largest one at the time) made something of the sort for me too. You mention free energy, which is also what led me to alchemy, the whole free energy thing made sense to me, it just 'clicked' in my mind almost as if it was something I knew already somehow.
I think we have something in common here your experience is something I can relate to a bit.

I'm replying to this post because I wanted to say that I love you and also want to thank you for existing. With all my love and power, I hope you're doing well. I'm re-reading some of your old posts to help prepare me for when I'm ready to begin the Work again, and also to bring some more eyes and attention on your name, Chasm369, I think you deserve the acknowledgment.

Turning back the coarse of nature is something I believe I understand now :P

Sorry it's taking so long to show my Work, my method of collecting what I need is difficult for me but the good news is, I got time, all I need is patience.

I know different people have tried reviving this thread before and maybe people will again in the future but right now it's my turn..

Much earlier in the thread it was stated that simple alchemical experiments that require patients is really important, I very much concur with this sentiment. After having reviewed this thread I see that the discussion didn't truly leave putrefaction, with a few glimpses at what occurs after the raven. Useful observations were made about putrefaction relating to air vs no air and some details on how to seal our vessels appropriately were discussed.

I myself have played around with this before but I feel much more certain on how to move forward than then and learned from my mistakes previously, mostly on how I sealed the container. I have a few different matters I plan to work with, 2 of which are GW and saliva which I am actively collecting. Others I may reveal as more people join in and as I see results. There was talk about the old BoA forum, which also happens to be my introduction into Alchemy, it was spoken about how people all experimented with one method and I think this is a great idea because everyone is likely to approach this differently and some approaches are bound to be more fruitful than others, from here if there is an atmosphere of sharing we can all benefit from this.

In reviving this topic I would want to stay with the aims of the OP (Andro) in keeping this practical, if anyone reviews the whole thread we can see just how derailing the bickering becomes. If non-practical/philosophical debates want to be had here is the post for that: 'One Matter' - Empiricism & Alchemy - Discerning Truth from Deception

Anyone interested?

Also theres been some talk of throwing away the feces and to that I wanted to throw a few quotes from the Golden Chain of Homer. It's not dealing directly with 1/1/1 but conceptually I think we should really consider what we call feces, what is to be discarded (such as phlegm) and what is an absolute gem hidden in the darkness.

Now you see, you alchemists, what you are throwing away - a
tincture which has such a great effect in so small a portion that a
certain writer sold it as gold potable astral and ascribed immense
potency to it. He believed that he had caught the solar sulphur from
the air in hot days - which nonetheless was nothing but some coal or
coal dust which had jumped into the melting vitriol.

If then sulphur does this in such a small amount and while it has
not yet been made volatile in a Liquor but has only been subtilized
and extracted by spirit of wine in its more fixed form, what will it do
when it is turned into a Liquor by its own components, as I have
taught before? The above-mentioned author called his extract
“potable gold.” What name shall I give to this one, when the thing to
be dissolved stays together with the dissolvent and the fixed and the
volatile are inseparably joined? Now the great potency of the
rejected coal has been proven.

If they burn the coal to ash, however, and leach the salt from the
latter, they believe that they have done the right thing and that they
have separated the fixed. That salt is fixed, they know themselves,
but the ash causes them doubts. But just visit a glass factory! There
you will at once see what ash is and for what purpose it is used
there, and what becomes of ash, namely, an incorruptible, eternal,
permanent body: glass. If then it becomes glass, it cannot be dregs.
Indeed, everybody can see that it is a solid body, fireproof to the
highest degree, yes, a reborn glorious body like a precious stone.
From this everybody can conclude, and intelligent men can judge,
what they have thrown away, namely, the most fixed part, the more
fixed subject, and the most durable fixing body.

Take my words on this with a grain of salt as I am still practicing but these words came to me when I was reading the different thoughts on getting rid of the feces. What are others thoughts on this? Kibric has said above "The feaces are the diamond of the work." which dovetails nicely into what I am saying here.

Anyhow I hope a few of you are interested..maybe we can all learn something together?

I will participate with dew as a flame magnet, but I live in a subtropical city, dew collection tips?

[Philosophical]

Awesome, welcome aboard Blacksmith. I have used sheets horizontally over a clothes line for dew. Not sure how it would go in the tropics though. Theres always the ole ice on a jar with a collector underneath but I think this contains a lot of unnecessary phlegm.

[tAlc]

Posted this on another forum, I call it ''Sal Prerequisite'' and I'd like to share this here. Wasn't going to, but I changed my mind. These past few weeks, I've had some negative attachments to the ''I'' and didn't realize it. Sorry Andro and Awani. I thought by being careless, I'd be ''free'', but in some cases, I think I was being a ''careless jerk''.

Ironically, I posted this on a popular Discord server and was banned after I told them where I derived it from. These people seemed skeptical about alchemy, even though they were an occult server. Go figure.

I search about One vassel one matter and one fre and i have some interesting things here: In the Pronaos of the Temple of Wisdom, by Franz Hartmann

38. Active heat produces in that which is moist blackness; in that which is dry, whiteness; and in that which is white, a yellow colour.

First comes mortification, then calcination, and afterwards the golden glow produced by the light of the sacred fire illuminating the purified soul.

39. The fire must be moderate, uninterrupted, slow, equal, moist, warm, white, light, all-embracing, enclosed, penetrating, living, inexhaustible, and the one used by nature.

It is the fire that descends from heaven to bless all mankind.

40. All operations must take place in only one vessel and without removing it from the fire.

The substance used for the preparation of the Philosopher's Stone should be collected only in one place and not be dispersed in many places. If the gold has once lost its brightness, it is difficult to restore it.

41. The vessel should be well closed, so that the water may not run

in the same text i have this:

"I admonish you to pay strict attention to the boiling of the water, and not to allow your minds to be disturbed by things of minor importance. Boil it slowly, and let it putrefy until it attains the proper colour, for in the water of Life is contained the germ of wisdom. By the art of boiling the water will become transformed into earth. This earth is to be changed into a pure crystalline fluid, from which an excellent red fire is produced; but this water and fire, grown together into one essence, produces the great Panacea, composed of meekness and strength: the lamb and the lion in one."

i will start with water now

[Jimmy Rig]

If you are going to work with water I suggest you putrefy for at least a month with exposure to the air. This will help get rid of much of the phlegm. Then distill it at a hard boil (all of it) save the bottom reside for salt extraction of any. Take your distillate and putrefy this as before be careful that no dust can fall in but it should still have access to air
Then start working this prepared water according to intuition or the one vessel method, alternatively you could follow experiments such as those found in the golden chain to discover the universal seed of nature or follow the instructions of John French in the art of distillation. Well this is my recommendation at least. Cheers and good luck!
