CHRYSOPOEIA. "The Making of Gold."

My depiction of the alchemical Black Sun:

Nigredo, Albedo, Rubedo and Chrysopoeia.

 CHRYSOPOEIA. The Making of Gold,

from Salt, Cinnabar (red Mercury), and Sulfur.

~

How to make Gold by mining the Sun,

with the tongue of fiery imagination?

Fire consumes air into just one Word,

Sulfur for a metallical IdEntity forged.

~

We are Aliens, crashed unconscious,

must craft a Craft to return to space:

Silver-nitrate of earth, Blood of Moon,

Imago Dei synthesized from the Sun.

~

First a New Skin from nitrate of Salt,

by refining the id into a higher Helmet;

Camera Obscura, a "dark room" sealed,

an Observer, meditating in the Void.

~

Mushin of No-Mind, dematerialized,

an empty Grail for mercurial Blood.

The Moon diStills Spirit of inTinction,

water to Wine from earthly experience.

~

Spirit of Cinnabar perSonalizes Souls,

Wafers of Bread handed-down from Sol;

each Soul a Leaf in the Book of Heaven,

photosynthesizing Gold from the Sun.

~

The Grail of silvery Light~sensitivity,

charged with Wine of Blood's IdEntity,

is offered-up to Christ as a Libation,

to receive golden Flesh of Solarization!
