The Melissinos Rite - Paul Ferguson - 06-08-2023
An alchemical masonic Rite.
"There was a long tradition of magic and alchemy in Russia and in spite [of] the barriers of foreign contamination set up by the Orthodox Church, occult literature was not unknown. The pseudo–Aristotelian Secretum Secretorum, with its alchemical and astrological elements, was known in Russia probably by the end of the nineteenth century and there were copies in the libraries of many Tsars."
