Metals of the Alchemists - (283)

Introduction


The alchemists spoke a lot about metals. It seemed though that metals in their use, were symbolic of certain values or substances, they were not physical metals as we imagine them to be. They talked much about lead, gold, mercury, magnesium and also about the vile metals (the egos).



Conclusion

Perhaps the medieval Alchemists used the term ‘metals’ to be values. These values or metals in the esoteric realm could really be the values of the Absolute and in us these values are the values of our Being, and in the physical realm in our body and in the planet these same values take a physical form of hard, shiny substances with a great variety of properties, i.e. metals, such as gold, copper, iron, silver etc. each with their unique set of properties and value.

End (284).
