Excerpt from Occult Chemistry: Clairvoyant Observations on the Chemical Elements
I have thus endeavoured to bring into clear prominence at the outset the scientific value of the light the book sheds on the constitution of matter. The world owes a debt to scientific men of the ordinary type that cannot be over-estimated, but though they have hitherto preferred to progress gradually, from point to point, disliking leaps in the dark, the leap now made is only in the dark for those who will not realise that the progress to be accomplished by means of instrumental research must sooner or later be supplemented by subtler methods. Physical science has reached the conception that the atoms of the bodies hitherto called the chemical elements are each composed of minor atoms.
Instrumental research cannot determine by how many, in each case. Occult research ascertained the actual number in some cases by direct observation and then discovered the law governing the numbers in all cases, and the relation of these numbers to atomic weights. The law thus unveiled is a demonstration of the accuracy of the first direct observations, and this principle once established the credibility of accounts now given as to the arrangement of minor atoms in the molecules of the numerous elements examined, seems to me advanced to a degree approximating to proof.

Paperback. Condition: NEW. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of the building blocks of our universe ΓΆβ β the chemical elements. Through meticulous observation and analysis, the author unveils the intricate structures and hidden relationships that govern the behavior of these fundamental components of matter. Drawing upon the ancient Platonic concept of the LOGOS as a geometrician, the author reveals how nature constructs the elements according to precise forms and numbers. This journey takes us from the simplest element, hydrogen, to the complexities of gold, showcasing the elegant patterns and recurring motifs that weave through the periodic table. By exploring the internal dynamics of atoms and their interactions, the book sheds light on the fundamental forces that shape our physical world. We witness the dance of positive and negative atoms, the formation of molecules, and the intricate interplay of energy and vibration. Ultimately, this book offers a profound appreciation for the hidden order and beauty that lie at the heart of the material world, inviting us to contemplate the profound significance of the elements and their role in the grand tapestry of existence.
