Quote of the Day

“If the bodies are not dissolved by our Living Water, if they are not imbibed and softened by it and thus open and stripped of their hard mass to be reduced to pure and subtile spirit, our work will be nothing but a useless deception. As long as the bodies have not been converted into non-bodies, that is, into their first matter, the rule and the key of our Art will not be found. Thus, the only goal of our Art is to make bodies fluid hard and solid in order to make the Tinture.”
