Marriage of the Sun and Moon,
By
This review is from: The Hermetic Marriage (Adept Series) (Paperback)
This short work is on the Hermetic Marriage of the Androgyne, or in other terms, the making whole of the mind and body, left and right, above and below. Manly Hall, who explains this process in extreme practical clarity discusses the history and origins of Hermetics, as well as its philosophy through anatomy. He also illuminates some examples of literature and its alchemical symbolism within. The core of the understanding is the alchemical trine of salt, sulphur, and mercury. By fusing or mixing these together, you create the elixir of life or philosopher's stone. In the end the aim is towards a spiritual life that is fused with the phsyical life. As the alchemical adage of the times was, "Make fire to burn in the water, and the water to feed the fire. In this lies great wisdom."
