The Alchemical Wedding: Cosmos, Laboratory & Psyche - Paul Ferguson - 09-05-2026
"The alchemical wedding is, before anything else, a marriage of the Sun and the Moon. In the illustrated manuscripts of European alchemy they approach one another as king and queen, Sol and Luna, sulphur and mercury. Sometimes they clasp hands; sometimes they enter a bath or tomb; sometimes their bodies dissolve together and reappear as a single, double-natured being."
