How does the relationship between alchemy imagination and physical reality manifest in our daily lives? In this episode of Open Minds (Season 20, Episode 12), host Regina Meredith sits down with researcher Steven Ross to explore the profound depths of hermetic philosophy. Together, they examine how ancient teachings are far from obsolete; instead, they offer vital tools for navigating the complexities of the modern world.
Ross shares his extraordinary journey into the private library of German alchemist Alexander von Bernus, a sanctuary of esoteric alchemy that holds keys to understanding the interdimensionality of our world. Through this exploration, Ross reveals how ancient practitioners utilized spiritual alchemy to bridge the gap between the visible and invisible realms. By studying these ancient texts, we uncover the principles of active imagination alchemy, where the mind becomes a laboratory for profound change. This process closely aligns with psychological alchemy, demonstrating how inner visualization directly impacts outer circumstances to trigger a genuine transformation of consciousness. Ross explains that by understanding the Hermetic axiom "as above, so below," we can begin to see how our internal state of being projects outward to construct our daily experiences.
