Description

In this newly rediscovered text, famed occultist Israel Regardie sheds light on the psychological and spiritual meaning behind the symbols and metaphors of alchemy. Fully edited and annotated by Chic and Sandra Tabatha Cicero, Gold is the first new book by Regardie published in decades. Analyzing The True Book of Synesius-an important seventeenth century alchemical treatise-Regardie uses the language of Jungian psychology, magnetism, and hypnosis while citing his own unique experiences as a therapist and healer. Touching upon alchemical theory, Taoist philosophy, yoga, hypnotism, Zen Buddhism, and experiments with the human aura, Gold is a definitive work by a true master.
