  Music: Alas de Liona
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 02-27-2025, 07:13 PM - Forum: Alchemical symbolism and imagery - No Replies

"Alas De Liona directs self-directs the atmospheric promo for The Alchemist's Son.

Shot at Ferniehirst Castle in Jedburgh, the video is a dreamy blend of performance and lyrical overlays, gently stirring and melancholic in its style.

From the breathtaking location through to lingering abstract shots of chess piece characters, it's an enigmatic concept that leaves room for interpretation."

  Daoist Inner Alchemy Atlas
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 02-27-2025, 07:04 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"This issue focuses on the study of inner alchemy, paying special attention to the practice of Dandao丹道, and it conducts related research on Daoist medicine, thunder rites, iconography, etc. “Atlas” could be viewed as a metaphor for the integration of various Daoist practices into a cohesive system of cultivation. It provides a roadmap to navigate through the inner alchemical processes and understand how each aspect (physical health, energy work, ritual practice, and spiritual observation) contributes to the overall goal of transforming the self."

  Ancient cultural treasures in 'Ne Zha 2'
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 02-27-2025, 07:02 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"The Chinese animated blockbuster Ne Zha 2 has captured the hearts of audiences since its release during Spring Festival this year. As of Feb 22, the film's box office revenue has surpassed 13 billion yuan (about $1.8 billion), cementing its place as China's all-time top-grossing film.

"The Tianyuan tripod, known as the "foundation of the Chan sect" in the film, is a key alchemical tool in the Jade Xu Palace. Its design draws inspiration from the flat, spherical bellies and column feet of bronze tripods used during the Shang and Zhou dynasties (c.16th century-256 BC). The tripod's intricate decoration includes common motifs like the Taotie (a mythological creature) and cloud-thunder patterns, which were popular during these dynasties."
