Emerald Formula Mandalas: Meditation with a Purpose
Alchemy Meditation Mandalas
- Rembrandt’s “The Alchemist” (This oil-on-wood circular-framed painting is from Rembrandt’s “Philosopher In Meditation,” which he completed in 1632. The complete 11×13-inch painting shows an alchemist kneeling at the furnace in his laboratory.)
- Azoth of the Philosophers (Basil Valentine’s mandala map to altered consciousness.)
- The Tree of Life Mandala (Valentine’s seven stages on the Tree of Life.)
- The Emerald Tablet Engraving (The Tabula Smaragdina engraving shows all the symbols of alchemy.)
- Meditation Series on the Seven Operations of Alchemy (The Seven Steps of Transformation revealed in the Emerald Tablet are alluded to in many alchemical engravings. Sometimes they are represented by seven stars or flowers, or seven figures hidden in a cave.)
- Meditation Series on the Archetypal Forces (Images that depict archetypal or transpersonal forces at work on an unconscious level; the Alchemist seeks to dissolve these energies and use them for transformation.)
