There is no truth - Only who you choose to believe.
If price and worth are synonyms, why are priceless and worthless opposites?
People should not be afraid of their governments, governments should be afraid of their people.
No man is free who is not master of himself.
It's okay sweetie. Pick up your pieces and put yourself back together.
We're all looking for an escape, but you can't escape yourself.
Azoth was considered to be a universal medication or universal solvent sought in alchemy[1]. Similar to another alchemical idealized substance, alkahest, azoth was the aim, goal and vision of many alchemical works. Its symbol was the Caduceus. The term, while originally a term for an occult formula sought by alchemists much like the philosopher's stone, became a poetic word for the element mercury. The name is Medieval Latin, an alteration of azoc, being originally derived from the Arabic al-zā'būq, "the mercury".
The Azoth is related to the Ain Soph (ultimate substance) of the Kabbalah. In his book The Secret Teachings of All Ages. Manly P. Hall explained this connection: "The universe is surrounded by the sphere of light or stars. Beyond that sphere is Schamayim (שמים), the Hebrew word for 'heaven', who is the Divine Fiery Water, the first outflow of the Word of God, the flaming river pouring from the presence of the eternal mind. Schamayim, who is this fiery Androgyne, divides. His Fire becomes Solar fire and his Water becomes Lunar water in our universe. Schamayim is the Universal Mercury or Azoth – the measureless spirit of life. That original spiritual fiery water comes through Edem ("vapor" in Hebrew) and pours itself into the four main rivers of the four Elements. This comprises the River of Living Water—the Azoth—or fiery mercurial essence, that flows out from the throne of God and Lamb. In this Edem (vaporous essence or mist) is the first or spiritual Earth, the incomprehensible and intangible dust out of which God formed Adam Kadmon, the spiritual body of man, which must become fully revealed through time."
In his book Transcendental Magic, Eliphas Levi wrote: "The Azoth or Universal Medicine is, for the soul, is supreme reason and absolute justice; for the mind, it is mathematical and practical truth; for the body it is the quintessence, which is a combination of gold and light. In the superior or spiritual world, it is the First Matter of the Great Work, the source of the enthusiasm and activity of the alchemist. In the intermediate or mental world, it is intelligence and industry. In the inferior or material world, it is physical labor. Sulfur, Mercury, and Salt, which, volatilized and fixed alternately, compose the Azoth of the sages. Sulfur corresponds to the elementary form of Fire, Mercury to Air and Water, Salt to Earth."
As the Universal Life Force, the Azoth is believed to be not only the animating energy (spiritus animatus) of the body but is also the inspiration and enthusiasm that moves the mind. In the cosmos and within each of us, the Azoth is believed to be the mysterious evolutionary force responsible for the relentless drive towards physical and spiritual perfection. Thus, the concept of the Azoth is analogous to the light of nature or mind of God.
The term was considered by occultist Aleister Crowley to represent a unity of beginning and ending by tying together the first and last letters of the alphabets of antiquity;[2] A/𐤀 (Aleph, the first character in the Phoenician alphabet), Z (Zeta, the final character in Latin), O/Ω (Omega, the final character in Greek) and Th/ת (Tav (pronounced "Tau") the final character in Hebrew). In this way permeation and totality of beginning and end was symbolised to consider the supreme wholeness and thus the universal synthesis of opposites as a 'cancellation' (i.e. solvent) or cohesion (i.e. medicine), and in such a way is similar to the philosophical "absolute" of Hegel's dialectic. Crowley further made reference in his works referring to Azoth as "the fluid" calling it the universal solvent or universal medicine of the medieval alchemical philosophers, as a unifier or unification of a certain extreme instance beholden to a contradict, unreconcilable nature if otherwise sought apart of the philosophical ideal of Azoth.
Ra was the solar deity, bringer of light, and thus the upholder of Ma'at. Apep was viewed as the greatest enemy of Ra, and thus was given the title Enemy of Ra, and also "the Lord of Chaos".
As the personification of all that was evil, Apep was seen as a giant snake or serpentleading to such titles as Serpent from the Nile and Evil Lizard.
Note: The apep essence is the enemy of the sun god and sun worshipers, possibly otherwise known as the light bearers. This ties in to a lot of the occult and potentially the creators of all physical reality itself. Sun/son worship. In terms of attachment, it becomes clear why those obsessed with the physical world and definition/judgement/labels/categories/hierarchies might be fearful of things that know no bounds, or the indistinguishable essence of chaos. It’s very difficult to find an anchor point or foundation in the validity and truth of all things, especially opposing polarities. As humans we tend to think in opposition. If it isn’t ‘this’ then it must be ‘that’ the very opposite. It’s tremendously difficult to understand that both sides have truth, but the majority of truth is contained within the “98% grey area” between the two. For it is in these opposite polarities that make any reality possible. It encases a specified spectrum, allowing for the opportunities and possibilities contained therein to be experienced by a subjective perspective through a vast array of senses that will never give the creation of its entirety any justice or favor. Mere words and definitions could never fully explain the depths and love for all creation. The sun gods and worshippers can’t see beyond this bounds--and they don’t want their children to either. As humans we are deeply afraid and curious of the unknown and we are slowly working our way back Home. Even if it’s a road trip of cycles and reincarnation through hell...
You’re being held back from your greatest potential. What’s holding you back? You Are. Your Mind. It attaches to ideologies and definitions as if they’re real and the fullest of all truths. Do not be fooled. For the greatest deceiver and savior lies within.
There’s no reason for fighting, but we don’t know what we’d do without it...
