MalleusHi! Perhaps a Re-<a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Introduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Introduction</a> is in order since there's so many more people in this space to share stories and insights with.I'm an <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Alchemist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Alchemist</a>. I manipulate symbols and materials to effect <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/transformations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#transformations</a> and thus transform myself. My practice was revealed to me in a series of trances by an ancient <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/goddess" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#goddess</a> who has many historical forms. Some of these are the <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Kemetic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kemetic</a> goddesses known as the Eyes of Ra. She recently revealed to me that she would like me to refer to her as <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Hathor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Hathor</a>. I'm not second guessing that advice.I'm a cis het old guy (58) happy married for 25 years. I adore women. Mostly from afar.Race- white, blue eyed ethnic jew.My technique is centered on an apparatus I built based on a design the goddess revealed. I later connected the components and operation symbolically to equipment and processes described in classic <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Alchemy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Alchemy</a> sources. I'm a non-traditional Alchemist. I don't use a forge or do metallurgy. My device is electrical and uses a type of <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/crystal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#crystal</a> to focus energy. It can roughly be described as a type of lamp. The picture shows the output of my process. It's called a <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/Violograph" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Violograph</a>.It is commonly asserted, and I agree, that the coveted philosopher's stone refers to the practitioners themselves. As the goal of the process it is in reality the transformed person. This is done by separating the spirit and soul from the <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/body" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#body</a>, changing them and then re-uniting them in the body again.
