Alchemy of the Golden and Rosy-Cross (GuRC) of the 18th century. One of the few books of alchemy clearly describes the different ways and praxis that allow us to obtain the Philosophal Stone, as described in his title:
“The Chymical Heaven Revealed. Or, Philosophical Treatise in which it is sincerely revealed not only the Materias and the Manipulations from which the Philosopher’s Stone is prepared both in the Preliminary and Subsequent Works, but also how excellent and invaluable Tinctures and Medicines are prepared out of all the four Kingdoms of Nature, that is, the Astral, Animal, Vegetable and Mineral Kingdoms, both for health and for life maintenance, as well as to improvement and transmutation of imperfect Metals, with pictures designed for the Lovers of the True Hermetic Philosophy from a Connoisseur of the same”.
This book also includes comments of the German Rose-Croix Johann Carl von Frisau, member of the Gold and Rosy-Cross of Oldest System, adding key to practice in each chapter of the book.
The Legend said, “this text circulated for years, only in manuscript form within the Rosicrucian movement, and that the latter would have bought the manuscript for 6,000 Doublons, from a publisher who wanted to publish it”.
