What Alchemical Symbols REALLY mean
Vložit
- čas přidán 10. 06. 2024
- Alchemy was an area of study rich with symbols that were more than just signs. Alchemists used these symbols to encapsulate their unique blend of science, mysticism, and philosophy. They were also used as a universal language and a means to guard their secretive practices. Beyond their practical meanings, alchemy symbols held great symbolic representations.
Here’s every major alchemy symbol you need to know.

Vitriol - visit the interior of the earth, there the secret of the stone is found. The true meaning of vitriol is in an acronym. V.isita I.nteriora T.erra R.ectificando I.nvenies O.ccultum L.apidem
Kool bro, I just deciphered it;
Visit the inner earth of the hidden stone. I guess it’s referring to the Philosopher Stone, and earth in content is referring to man (adamu) because man is made from Clay. The hidden gem (precious stone) is within.
Thank you for posting that, I be doing some inner workings.
Not quite, and the exact wording is critical if one is sincerely seeking Truth. Visit the interior of the Earth (Man the microcosm) and by rectifying you will find the hidden Stone (Higher Self or Christ Consciousness).
Or as Thoth said it as above so below. The emerald tablets said that the inner earth dwells a grand ancient race of humans and technology.
@@cosmiccrunch8591 the exact wording, which is critical, can be found by those seeking the inner wisdom in a genuine manner. Do you know the secret of the sword in the stone as it relates to the philosophers stone and the Holy Grail?
Regarding 7:49 the Philosopher's Stone. In 1980, gold was successfully made by a team of scientists at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in Berkeley, California. Nuclear chemists Glenn T. Seaborg, David J. Morrissey and Walter D. Loveland used a high energy nuclear particle accelerator known as the Bevalac which transformed the metal bismuth into gold. The process is known as “Chrysopoeia”.
I thought when the narrator declared that no one has created the philosopher's stone, "well that's a bold claim which cannot be proven." I wonder what St. Germain would say, wherever he is. 😋
They have done it a few times, but the cost of the energy it takes for such a minute amount is not worth it. So while it has and can be done, it cost more to do it then to just go buy a gold bar.
@@mitziewheeler8517the gold also comes out radioactive as hell, if I'm not mistaken, making it useless for most purposes one would want to use gold for.

Great concise intro to the symbolism! Thanks.
You're very welcome

Thanks a ton
Fascinating and well written. New Subscription good job

This is a great video. Are there paperback reference books on this topic? Also, where can I find alchemical dice like you showed in the video? I can guess a game store, perhaps.
Excellent video. Thank you!❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
This was great and timed perfectly; I am currently studying for a diploma in symbology. Thank you, liked and subscribed please keep them coming.
Thank you! Will do!
That's a thing, the diploma for symbology? I study a lot and symbolism is something I find fascinating. Truths I have come to learn by studying symbolism makes me feel isolated when it comes to disillusioning others.
I'm curious as to what realizations you've come to while studying symbology?
@@thedude5740 my realizations have led me to study symbology rather than vice versa. I tend to follow archeology that is not blinded by mainstream fears of ridicule and loss of funds. Graham Handcock is fearless in asking tough questions and putting hidden puzzle pieces together out in the open. Goblekli Tepi has a story to tell both in the stone itself and the carvings, which smack mainstream in their faces so hard, but they remain silent. Pyramids with no bodies but mysterious chambers and corridors. Massive underground cities that go on for miles that are thousands of years older than hunter-gatherer people, and I can go on. We are not the first advanced civilization on this earth, nor will we be the last. Gobekli Tepi tells us what and how it happens and tells us it can happen again.
@@karenfinneganart2480 I'll try to give you a response if YT will allow, I am censored quite a bit. After I send it, I'll ask if it went through.
@@thedude5740 as for my realisations in my studies in symbology. It is our primary language, a universal language that can surpass the spoken word but cause evil when misrepresented, as with the Swastika. It speaks to us from the past; it is our ancestors telling us about our world with their paintings on cave walls, their Ogham, which became the Celts alphabet, as well as names of holy trees and a way of divination. Sort of a Celtic form of runes is just one example.
Talk about some highly interesting material. I must watch it again and start learning symbols. 😊Very cool 😎
Thanks! We've got heaps of symbol related videos!
My favorite symbol is the "white eagle"... I have performed sublimation of several metals ... I love the periodic table .... .
It’s very interesting. I think that some of this information is stemming from Vedic astrology. There gold and silver represent Sun and Moon as royal planets. As for Copper it goes along with fire element and usually is used to balance Mars and is associated with it. It’s interesting since yeah, they both are connected to fire yet Venus is feminine and Mars is the opposite - masculine. I wouldn’t say that iron is mars, it’s simply associated because of the way people turned it into a weapon. I think iron is Saturnian energy, just like steel and lead, because Saturn on it’s own has a very metal-like energy.
Fantastic video! Thanks.

Nice job! An important aspect of Salt which should be mentioned is that it represents the union of polar forces, informative Mercury and formative Sulphur, or on the mundane level, an acid and a base. Salt is the illusion of manifest individual physicality or Being. "Ye are the Salt of the Earth..." 🙏
Thanks for sharing and adding to the conversation.
Salt is also a purifying substance. When you flip over to the metaphysical aspects of these symbols not only does salt represent earth, but also purification and protection. The four signs for the elements of life, earth, air, fire, and water are used in metaphysical beliefs and workings. A Pentagram with it's 5 points stands for the four elements and the 5th point, pointing up is spirit. Which relates to many things. Our spirit, our higher spirit also known as higher self, the higher plains above 3-D and many believe it's the link to source. Personally I try to keep spirit linked to both the higher hopefully to source but also earth, which is the foundation of the four elements, without earth you cannot have the other 3. When you put a Pentagram inside a circle it becomes a Pentacle, the circle is earth, the mother. So while one of the points is the element of earth, the circle is earth herself. I use the symbols in a metaphysical way. The symbols for gold and silver, the Lord and Lady, sun and moon. Only above them is source. So these symbols are all still used in a alchemy sort of way, it's not so much as the early ways of science but it's metaphysical. And even when just used as the metaphysical you can still write what you are saying in a way others may not understand especially if they are taking the symbols and using them as what they represent now in science. These symbols can also help you on your quest of both your own inner and outer workings. Really want to have fun with them but besides just using their so called metaphysical ways. Instead of joining them to science as a chemical. Instead use them as metaphysical, but use those signs of the metaphysical and mix with string theory and quantum mechanics, mixing them with realms of physics that have started to merge with metaphysical ways and beliefs you get some very interesting experiments, especially if you can use visualization as the bridge. So if you haven't figured out while I have used all the symbols, the elements and sun and moon are my highest ones. Blessings Be 💖
@@mitziewheeler8517 Great addition to my comment. The pentagram's 5th point as you say represents our Higher Self, which is know as our Quintessence, a state of Unity which is eternal, as the abode of the Soul and a bridge to Source.
I haven't begun to work with the symbols directly yet. If you could recommend some study material for practical application it would be greatly appreciated. All4One

The raven symbolism is very interesting having just learnt how edger Alan Poe died. I’m going to go back to re read it. If you’re not aware he predicted his own death aswell. Love learning about these subjects 💯

These are just the basic symbols and their basic meanings. In my opinion, the information contained in this video is a good place to start if you are interested in the ways of old.
My favorite symbol is Mercury, I have it tattooed to my left leg
@bobbyluck8953 Thanks for your comment. I personally like Mercury symbol too :)
Wow, this is absolutely amazing 👏👏

Highly learning my brain through device. AMEN
My favourite is the eagle and the lion which best represents my process/stages in life well 26 years of it now. I guess the crow too especially the crow.
8:18 As far as you know, yes.

@@SymbolSagetime stamp 8:15 to 8:18 you said no one was successful in discovering "the magnum opus"
1- Small circle - the Aether, all that is and all that is not. Pure rest unlimited potential.
2- Square - the activating power of the mind.
3 - Triangle - magnetized to manifest in gross matter.
4 - Big circle - creates the physical world.
It's only a secret to those who can't wrap the heads around it.
Alchemy is more alive than ever!
#2 - You need to overlay these symbols on top of each other, thank you!
Kemetic Science has Enriched the Planet & Only the Greeks had the Balls to pay Homage to where they even got the Knowledge😂😅
Who else have been having weird great events in their lives and they see the symbols and said I need to add this to it to get that extra umph💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥
Anyone that studys symbolism, I would encourage you to also study psychology, particularly the subconscious mind and what occurs when symbols are experienced/fed to it.
Try to understand the truth of living symbols and dead symbols. The subconscious mind doesn't know the difference. You can consciously fed yourself the symbols that alter your reality in a negative fashion.
Do you have literature or videos you’d recommend on this ?
Thx!
@@pixelpriestess Carl Jung, Manly P. Hall, and Dr. Bruce Lipton produced some decent information.
I'm not sure if I have ever heard anyone discuss living symbols/dead symbols, I think I developed that way of looking at things after many years of studying.
I own Dr. JUNG's book on The Psycjology of The conscious.
I also recommend that Mark Passio's seminar: czcams.com/video/ChgCh2Gui5M/video.htmlsi=x1hFNJOlwxK2VO9w
Silver, Gold 😊❤
My favorite symbol is the air symbol because I'm a Libra but it was very interesting to find out that copper was related to Venus. That really resonated with me.
Great, thanks for sharing :)
Copper was used to cure venereal diseases, that have this name after Venus
This also interested me I have a libra rising
This also interested me I have a libra rising
are you sure that that’s the symbol for the philosopher’s stone? . I wonder if someone has a hunch that it’s rather a different symbol, where the apex of the triangle doesn’t quite touch the top of the outer circle, and the triangle is not equilateral
Wow! Just wow.
The philosopher s stone is cinnabar. Which when steamed, perspires liquid mercury
This came at the perfect time. Thank you for streamlining my mission with this information.
Glad it was helpful!
the green lion is not copper acetate.....it's actually aqua regia the only acid that can dissolve gold....thus the lion eating the sun!

Be still and know that I am, you are, we are - simply being aware of being aware - as Life at Large - eternally actualizing infinite potential, because only Eternity can fully embrace Infinity.
We transform our temporal caterpillar psyche (lead) into an Eternal Butterfly Soul (gold), by alchemically integrating our Heart (sulphur), Mind (mercury) and Will (salt).
I'm unable to choose which one🤔
I like them all. As we are all things and all matter. Elementals.
Hi there, thank you 🙏 I was curious to find a symbol that ‘came to me’ around the turn of the millennium, either in ’99 or 2000, still haven’t found it or it’s meaning, but I’m sure it is of some significance 🤷🏻♀️
Interesting. What was the symbol?
@@SymbolSage it is hard to explain it’s sort of a cross but with two lines crossing horizontally, the top horizontal line is connected on the right side to the top of the vertical line, making a triangle and the bottom horizontal line is connected to the bottom of the vertical line making a triangle there on the left side… it can be drawn in one single line if that makes sense..
@@SymbolSage I’ve drawn it and made it my profile picture so you can hopefully see it, I’m a tad computer illiterate so this is as good as it gets 😂
@@MMelanie963 Try using your symbol with the kabbalistic tree of life. It makes a path that you could derive lots of meanings from.

I understand that symbols have meaning but I'm less certain as to their 'power' (as mentioned in the title. What is this special power?
Alchemic symbols are typically seen as powerful because they capture deep, secret knowledge and ideas.

Thanks for your comment :)
I believe the reason why all alchemists failed at creating the philosophers stone. Was because they all forgot they have a body. It seam's that the body would be the perfect philosophers stone. God already created it. Humans can only create it by combining male and female people. We need all elements including physical, spiritual, and the unseen to make the philosophers stone work. That's what the body does, it works through all the different alchemical procedures and produces physical and spiritual objects. Guru's have been able to demonstrate materialization of objects through their own practices and understanding of themselves. They have also been able to transform their bodies into light known as the light body and the true masters who understand that this body is needed for some things will take their body with them even in death. Jesus did, Budda did, and a few other masters have been able to transform every bit of their body into light and Transend the vail when they were done creating in this world. If a master was able to transform his body during life or death into light that would prove the soul lives on. One reason why people do this is because every cell of a masters body can be used and salvaged by others. They wouldn't want their power to be abused by those who would do evil in this world so they took all of themselves with them. Plus if the body is the philosophers stone then it would also prove that God is superior to man because the only way man can create it is by using things God himself created. In fact there was a joke someone once told me a long time ago. Two men decided they didn't need God any more and God asked why. They said it's because we can now create everything you can create . He said. Fine then prove it. He said they needed to create a living body in order to prove their point. The three of them worked on it and the two alchemists had everything in place. They only needed dirt. So one went outside to gather some dirt and God said. No this is my dirt go make your own.
Who said there isn't a philosopher's stone? Study Gupta Vidya, take the initiation. And yes, Alchemy happens first inside the person, as you said!
@@kof3017 I wasn't stating that there wasn't a philosophers stone even Aristotle stated that the philosophers stone wasn't here but inside the body. I will definitely study the Gupta vidya though. Thanks for the resources. It was just a thought experiment that hit me. I've been studying alchemy, spirituality and occultism for quite some time now and am always looking for new material to read and add to my library.
The philosopher's stone is the mind.
Alchemy was a secret teaching of what occurs within and how to transmute your being into a more refined/pure state. All ideas exist in darkness/nothingness, something most minds see as valueless. An idea is no good until they see the idea brought to light(birthed into reality).
When a mind can create immeasurable value from what others find to have no value, then that individual welds the power of the philosopher's stone. We are all capable of welding it properly, but only a very few ever figure it out. Most of us are lost in the dark.
I dont think all have failed. I think after their dark nights and shadow work they realize the peril of sharing discovery with folk that won't do the work. Like modern political leaders they'd wage cruel and bloody wars without understanding cost, like children they'd eat that which pleases them until it begins to destroy them.
If you don't yet understand the nature of Adam, it is probably best that you aren't granted the privileges found in the Son of Man. "Have you not heard it said ye are as gods?" Aye, but I've also heard "the heart of man is wicked, who could know it? The lord alone tries the reigns".
Not true that all alchemists failed. There's many that succeded. St. Germaine. The Flamels etc. Recommend reading the red lion
I have a question, was there a mathematical counterpart to alchemy? What is ancient mathematics?
maybe the quest for perfect numbers?

Knowing any of this isn't changing a thing.
*this universe many others don’t use these symbols or have these elements alchemy is very directly tied to this physical realm almost completely

Paracetamol Tablet has the salt simbol.
Mercury and sulfure are pure elements but salt is hybrid of Na Cl, why these three are in same group؟
Mercury and sulfur are pure elements, but salt (NaCl), as you said, is a compound of sodium and chlorine. They're often grouped together because they play important roles in different chemical processes and industries, showing a range of chemical properties.
white eagle is my favorite symbol because I had a dream of a white eagle. It flew down to me and laid next to me and let me pet it.
It was a very profound dream to me.

As if, poor collagen, breathing in copper tailings… atmospheric pollution, the moral of the story…all that glistened wasn’t gold or good for planet either, don’t know about heavenly bliss, if the planet didn’t need all for its own particular health & structure it wouldn’t have created it to be ..animal symbols nice…
