About this experience
Prague is much more than just a collection of beautiful buildings. Its architecture is filled with symbols of all stages of the alchemical process. I will show you those recognized and interpreted by Fulcanelli - the French alchemist of the 20th century. I will touch upon the history of the last Prague transmutation and tell you about the rainbow colors that emerge in the process of the Great Work - the creation of the Philosopher's Stone.
What to Expect
- We will leisurely stroll through the labyrinth of the Old Town and decode the puzzles of its architecture, referring not only to history but also to our intuition
- You will discover hermetic symbols related to the depiction of the god Mercury. You will begin to notice his main attribute - the caduceus
- You will learn about nigredo - the first phase of the alchemical process. Find the symbols of this phase on the walls of houses
- You will see Masonic signs and hear about the first secret organization of medieval Europe
Topics of our conversation:
- The Alchemical Lion. The threshold between worlds
- Various colors of the Great Work
- The last Prague transmutation in 1728
- Secret brotherhoods of cathedral builder masons
- Rosicrucians and their signs on the walls of Prague houses
And much more!
If you get tired, we will make a stop and relax at one of the cafes where Nabokov, Tsvetaeva, Kafka, Freud, and Einstein liked to sit.
