In this newly rediscovered text, famed occultist Israel Regardie
sheds light on the psychological/spiritual meaning behind the
symbols and metaphors of alchemy. To this end, he presents an
important seventeenth century alchemical treatise for analysis,
"The True Book of The Learned Greek Abbot Synesius Taken out of The
Emperor's Library," written by an anonymous alchemist. As in his
previous book on alchemy (The Philosopher's Stone), Regardie
discusses "The True Book of Synesius" in the language of Jungian
psychology, magnetism, and hypnosis. But here the discussion is
more specific, with Regardie citing his own unique experiences as a
therapist and a healer. In Gold, Regardie explores the similarities
between alchemical theory, Taoist philosophy, yoga, hypnosis, Zen
Buddhism, and experiments with the human aura.
Fully edited and annotated by Chic and Sandra Tabatha Cicero,
Gold is the first new book by Regardie published in decades and
includes two important appendices. First, Regardie talks about the
practical use of the concepts, and the Ciceros reveal a previously
unpublished version of Regardie's The Art of True Healing,
containing the earliest version of this paper taken straight from
the author's personal advance copy, complete with Regardie's own
corrections penciled into the margins.
