Vitriol
Hi All,
You will see this hermetic axiom on many of the old Rosicrucian diagrams: "Visita Interiora Terrae Rectificando Invenies Occultum Lapidem": Visit the Innermost of the Earth and by Rectifying you will find the Hidden Stone. Acrostically this motto forms the word ‘vitriol’, "is a symbolical allusion to obtaining the tincture of life." Virigin Sophia - Rosicrucian Archive HERMETIC ANTHROPOS The inner earth does have labyrinthine ways- and layers like an onion (inner spheres). Indeed a student can get lost in those circuitous windings mistaking it for higher worlds! -Br.Bruce |
