Just re-read the website I linked to and I think it's amazing. As well as reference to rotation of the elements it has "the quality of the elements", interesting diagrams, thermo-dynamic principals, references to Mercury & Sulphur etc, it mentions "laws of motion", the wheel of fortune, Refinement Toward the Quintessence (compare diagram to MT94 & MT95!), and more. I recommend reading it to the end even if you are finding it a bit hard going. I'm sure you'll think "WOW" at least once! The article ends: "Alchemy is a symbolic framework for understanding certain abstract structures; practical alchemists saw them in matter, Jung found them in the psyche. In fact, wherever we find a twofold opposition of qualities that are separating/joining and flexible/inflexible, there the Great Work may succeed."
All the best

: Hi Michael
: Glad you like that link on the "peacock's tail", I've got loads more stuff to share when I can find the time to sort through my favourites. Here is a link that I think you will love - I was amazed when I read it, and I think there's something in it for everybody researching Bessler's clues. I'll post more soon.
