The Chymical Wedding of Christian Rosenkreutz

Silberer reads a hermetic parable as if it were a dream and builds a psychoanalytic theory of alchemical symbolism from it. This is the book that shaped how Jung and later writers approached the great work.

Dr. Herbert Silberer

One of the most beautiful alchemical manuscripts ever made, reproduced with 22 allegorical plates from the illuminated original of 1582. The accompanying treatises explain the stages of the work that the images encode.

Salomon Trismosin

Twelve short allegorical keys describing the stages of the great work, each one a riddle wrapped around a chemical operation. A foundational emblem text of European alchemy, closing with a tract on sulphur, mercury and salt.

Basil Valentine

An illustrated A to Z of alchemical terms, from calcination and dissolution to the Tria Prima and the planetary metals. A quick reference for decoding the symbolism in older treatises.
