has anyone figured out examples of the language of the birds

The language of the birds was used to convey alchemical ideas between adepts and such while keeping the knowledge from the profane and puffers. What are some examples of the language of the birds (aka ,the greene language, language of the bairds/language of the angels/language of the gods)? how much was koine greek, spoken Ogham or middle french? is the language of the birds a reference to the design/shapes of the tops of temples, is it a reference towards harmonic frequencies like what may or may not be resonating out of star forts? I can do it verbally a little with english (ie. the noble eyes of kings = the noble Lies of kings) but this says nothing of the original cant or argo. The following is indicative of what I am referring to. the language of the argonauts, who were searching for ...

An analysis of The Book of Aquarius by AI

I asked ChatGPT to analyze the process of creating the Philosopher’s Stone (as outlined by the book) from a modern chemist’s perspective, and to identify the products created at each step. CREATION OF THE PHILOSOPHER’S STONE Step 1: Preparation of "Green Lion" Dissolve gold in aqua regia (a mixture of hydrochloric acid and nitric acid). Heat the solution to drive off excess acid and concentrate the gold. Repeat the process of dissolving and heating the gold several times until a dark green solution called "Green Lion" is obtained. Step 2: Preparation of "Red Lion" Mix Green Lion with iron oxide, sulfur, and sal ammoniac. Heat the mixture to produce a red powder called "Red Lion". The chemical compound produced is a mixture of gold(III) oxide (Au2O3),...

Pull-Ups Should Always Be In Your Fitness Training

Walk into an Alchemy studio and you’re sure to notice the suspended pull-up bars floating above. They are a big investment for any fitness studio, and can cause anxiety for many members. So, why are they there, and why do we use them? “Think of pull-ups as the squat of the upper body” Pull-ups are a fundamental gymnastics movement, providing an epic bang-for-your-buck in terms of results – and we help you get good at them. They’re incredibly effective at increasing strength in the arms, back, core and hips. Pull-ups require stabilization, body awareness, control, and power. They’re like the squat of the upper body – important and foundational to your overall fitness. Everyone steps into Alchemy with different experiences with pull-ups. We use a number of different scaling options to...

Are You Losing Your Friends

Q&A Your Friends In Transition “I am in Level 1 and love it and everything that I am learning with you. I’ve been applying your tools and information in my daily life, and I need some help with something. I have two devout religious friends who don’t understand who I am anymore. I love them dearly and respect their paths. I’ve never spoken to them about my spiritual direction and beliefs. I mind my own business and don’t want to challenge them. Well, my friends saw a post I made on the Mastering Alchemy Facebook page. They checked further and discovered I believe in r...

March MAXness | Alchemy

March MAXness has become one of my favorite Alchemy traditions. It started almost five years ago and every time it comes back around, it seems to get better and more exciting for our athletes.    New to our community and not sure what I’m talking about?    For the month of March, we’ll be sprinkling a little extra heat on all of your Alchemy workouts. In addition to the daily programming, we’ll be adding a single, sixty second sprint of one movement to cap off the day. One minute. As many reps as humanly possible.    Sixty seconds might not seem like such a big deal but remember that time is relative.    Getting a massage? Taking a nice hot shower? Listening to your new favorite song? Sixty seconds is over in the blink of an eye.  On the other hand, dunking into an ice bath or working...

The Legends | Alchemy

First, it was “Legend’s Week”. Then, they became “Benchmarks”. Now, the growing tranche of classic workouts you know and love (and… hate a little), will take on a new naming convention, and a whole new meaning.  To understand the change, let’s start by understanding the point of these workouts.  We began introducing special, to-be-repeated workouts a couple years ago to give our athletes a method to measure their improvement over a given period of time. To state it a little more clearly, we programmed super tough workouts, then programmed them again roughly 90 days later as a retest.  Our hope was that these workouts would become a central part of the Alchemy experience; that our athletes would excitedly share their results and look forward to (and… dread a little), the day that an...

Reddit – Dive into anything

There are two sort of classes of alchemists in Fullmetal alchemist.Standard alchemists, like Armstrong and Mustang, tend to use alchemy as a kind of machine that lets them physically manipulate matter. Armstrong carves rocks into pointed spearheads and Mustang can control the oxygen density in air, and they use that to produce the effects they want. That is not really related to alchemy. Alchemy is about change on a more fundamental level than physical form.The other type of alchemist are people like Ed who have seen the truth and can do circleless alchemy. Edward does a lot of transmutation, which is more consistent with what alchemists wanted to accomplish. It is still different though. Edward performed alchemy in a chemistry mindset of identifying and categorizing the composition of a ...
