Book Description
A modern oracle with an ancient root, The Cards of Alchemy have been designed as a powerful tool for personal transformation and spiritual renewal. Unlike the tarot cards, The Cards of Alchemy are best used for solving the divinator's own problems, for finding new directions, for personal divination, and for meditation. Although they can be used to read for someone else, their strength lies in exploring the inner being of the reader/interpreter. Fifty unique cards serve as catalysts for positive change in all areas of life. Key words, astrological correspondences, numerological and other aspects are utilized to provide the most detailed focus and to complement and enhance the layers of meaning embedded in each card.

Book Description
The Book of the Chemical Art, ascribed to Marsilius Ficinus, provides one of the most in depth accounts of alchemical philosophy ever created. It is a philosophical treatise, as those of antiquity, listing its way through objections to alchemy, refuting its foes as well as superstitions prevalent at the time not accepted by the literate mystics of the era. It culminates with a section dedicated specifically to answers on such subjects supposedly derived from the conversations held between one Illardus, a Catalonian necromancer, and the Devil himself, which is here considered to give credence to the entire manuscript.

Book Description
All the many personalities who have immortalized themselves in alchemical research through the centuries are introduced in this very readable, compact presentation for today's interest in this fascinating, age-old quest in the metamorphosis of the human being. Mr Waite shows that the real alchemist quest was no the goal of turning base metals into gold, but rather the unfolding of the human being, the releasing and manifesting of the higher self. Seen in this light, alchemy is of profound interest and vital concern to awakened interests in development of spiritual powers and potentialities. Throughought the book are beautiful, historically significant illustrations.

Book Description
In this newly discovered text, famed occultist Israel Regardie sheds light on the psychological and spiritual meaning behind the symbols and metaphors of alchemy. Locked away for years before it was made available, and now fully annotated by Chic and Sandra Tabatha Cicero, Gold is the first new book by Regardie published in decades. Analyzing important seventeenth-century alchemical treatises, such as “The True Book of the Learned Synesius,” Regardie uses the language of Jungian psychology, magnetism, and hypnosis while citing his own unique experiences as a therapist and healer. Learn about spiritual alchemy and the connection between ancient magic and modern-day psychology. Explore the similarities between alchemical theory, Taoist philosophy, yoga, Zen Buddhism, and experiments with the human aura. With illustrations and appendices, including Regardie’s original text “The Art of True Healing,” Gold is a definitive work by a true master.
