Alchemical Symbolism in the VMS

[bi3mw]

It is at least possible that alchemical processes are represented symbolically ( see post 140 ). This does not correspond to later developed traditions, but can also help with correct interpretation to understand the underlying processes. This is also the case if the illustrations have more than one level of meaning and one must first penetrate to the basic statement. This problem is also found in the "classical" alchemical symbolism.
