Symbology

A searchable reference of 38 symbols in nine traditions (alchemical, Masonic, Rosicrucian, Hermetic, Golden Dawn, esoteric Christian, Egyptian, Eastern and cross-cultural), each with its glyph, history and correspondences and links into the Correspondence Atlas. Among them are sulfur, mercury and salt, the three principles Paracelsus set beside the four elements, and John Dee’s Monas Hieroglyphica, printed at Antwerp in 1564.
