Alchemy Quiz



I took this alchemy quiz dealy, which is like a psycho-spiritual take on alchemy. The page explaining my score is this one. Something about the stage of Fermentation. Some of the stuff here is pretty interesting:

    …successful psychological Fermentation is indicated by colorful visions that symbolize the activation of the True Imagination, what the alchemists called their “Secret Fire.” Personal awareness and creative abilities skyrocket in this state of consciousness, and Fermentation is the quality we envy in great artists, prophets, and spiritual leaders. Once fermented, a person becomes suddenly alive and irrepressibly hopeful because their attention is diverted from this world to something much greater. This is a time to tune into the full intensity of your thoughts, feelings, and body sensations, since they are offering you a true escape from the mundane world in which you feel yourself trapped. You are undergoing a period of true inspiration during which you should try to keep as grounded as possible. Keep a journal of your thoughts and dreams no matter how strange or irrelevant they may seem, because they may be communicating great insights.

    Bodily changes begun during Conjunction reach an entirely new level during Fermentation. The Second Puberty of Conjunction causes the growth of a Second Body, a body of light experienced at first only in the True Imagination. The level of inspiration may become so intense that it is experienced as a palpable, warm light circulating in the body. This living inspiration can even be consciously directed as a healing energy to various parts of the body or to others. As Fermentation progresses, people report feelings of extraordinary grace and “flow” as the physical body raises toward perfection, toward an ideal or archetypal image that is slowly taking on reality within.
