The phrase that is said to contain the essence of Alchemy is “Solve et Coagula” which translates to “Dissolve and Build”.  This can be seen as a loop of repetition but used in the proper way, is a spiral of evolution where there is continual refinement of substance.  In this model, the inessential is dissolved to it’s basic elements and those raw materials are gathered and used to make a higher level creation.

Below is the recording of a talk I gave on this topic along with additional meanings of the Ouroborous and finally, using the power of the heart to drive Alchemical transformation on an emotional level.  During the guided meditation at the end, there was one of the most powerful synchronicities that I have ever encountered.  I had talked about the two energy flows of The Torus and how they can be seen as life on Earth reflected in one flow and Spirit reflected in the other.  I had mentioned the Charles Ives piece “The Unanswered Question” as a brilliant example of this in music.  During the guided meditation, there were some beeps that could have been distracting and there was soft, spiritual music playing the whole time so this literally recreated the Charles Ives piece and also fit perfectly with the theme of the meditation.  This was not at all planned but was perfect!
