Welcome to the second part of Mutus Liber.

To be able to play this book today with today's eyes, can lead to transforming a bit of money into a lot of Bitcoin, the power of alchemy is very strong.

Enjoy the reading my friends.

Forty is a symbolic number that indicates a period of strong religious experience or preparation for a special mission; The Bible recalls the 40 days of the Flood (Gn 7, 12), for the embalming of Jacob (Gn 50,3), to explore * Canaan (Nm 13,25), the 40 years in the desert (Es 16,35; Nm 14,33-34, Dt 2,7, Gs 5,6, Sal 95,10, Am 2,10, 5,25, At 13,18, Eb 3,9), in the hands of the Philistines (Gdc 13, 1), the 40 days of Moses on the Sinai (Es 24,18; 34,28; Dt 9,9,18; 10,10); of Recognition in Canaan (Nm 13,25); of the challenge of Goliath (1Sam 17,16 ), Of Elijah's journey (1 Kings 19: 8), of Nineveh's repentance (Jn 3,4), of Jesus in the desert (Mt 4,2, Mc 1,13, Lc 4,2), which gave rise to Christian Lent, and after the Resurrection (Acts 1: 3). The flagellation according to Jewish law did not have to exceed 40 hits, so it was counted as 39 (Dt 25,3; 2Cor 11,24). Forty means radical change, divine help, a change to another life.

The four vessels are emptied into the damigiana by the man and the woman, and then distilled.
This new phase introduces into the liquid a six-petal flower, which represents the gold of alchemists, albeit still in an embryonic stage. It is inside a liquid that the woman wears with the spoon. It indicates the appearance of the male element that contrasts with the feminine element.
The alchemist delivers the ampoule with the rose to Apollo, as in the previous table the woman had delivered the distillate with the four corpuscles to Ephesus. Apollo is dressed in the armor of Ares, the God of War, and puts on the head the symbol of the Sun, of which he is a chauffeur.
The male element therefore (gold of the alchemists-sun-apollo) comes to the balance of the feminine element of the previous tables (Luna-Efesto). This is necessary for the reunion of opposites.

Man pours the liquid obtained from the previous distillation stages into a bacillus containing the liquid with the corpuscles.
In the next scene it is noted that the product of the union has become more dense and the corpuscles have disappeared.
Then proceed to another cooking on the live fire.
With the fire turned off, the woman with the spoon takes the compound from the sublimated layer and pours it into a bottle, inside which four asterisks are formed. They represent the salt of the harmony of the universe.
We recall that the basic alchemical elements are: sulfur (the spirit); Mercury (the soul) and salt (the body). Sulfur is the base of the combustion process, mercury of evaporation, and salt sets the volatile spirit. We do not think the body is a less important or less worthy part of the other two within the Great Opera. Only in the context of corporeality consciousness, free from the conquest and finally purified, can reach its maximum elevation. The integration of body and spirit is a fundamental phase in the alchemical operation, it is the time of the connection between High and Low, between macrocosm and microcosm, when every disintegrating distinction is lost and Harmony is reached. The alchemical operation does not happen outside us, but essentially within us; We must not regard it as abstract from the physicality of things, to operate on an essentially immaterial plan. The body is a fundamental element, as an enclosure of our fruitful interiority.

In the upper, angels hold the Egg of the philosophers in the sky.
Inside, the fiery rays of the overhanging sun lead to the ripening of the homunculus, which takes on the appearance of the Greek Hermes. These, within the egg, walk on a sunny, moon-like sky at the same time, symbols of its dual nature.

The representation is the traditional one of Greek mythology: the wings on the sides of the head, and the caduceus (it is said to have originally been a golden rod, which Apollo gave him in exchange for a zufoo) with 5 small twists wrapped around.

The landscape around it is also different: the year is at a more advanced stage, the fields have been plowed. Still, we notice the bundles of rays converging to concentrate the precious essence; The sun and the moon above to express the bipolarity of the operation. The ram and the bull to indicate the good season of the year.

We still find the alchemists inside a house, intending to continue the Work.
On the table, on the two plates of a scales, we find the Rose of the Philosophers and the Asterisk symbol of the Salt. The man holds the ampoule with the crystals in hand, and pours out the contents of the ampoule with mercury and dew on the Flower.
The woman pours it all in the bowl carefully.
We now have a liquid composed of the three alchemical elements, mercury, sulfur and salt.
