the secret fire

[sealedflask]

According to Jean Dubuis from PON, the secret fire is carried to earth from the sun thru the atmosphere and is concentrated in the dew and in fresh snow which hasn't been contaminated, so it could be that.

The link covers the "Flux Transfer Event" between the Earth and Sun.

Possibly a connection?

Facinating how everything the ancients said, is being confirmed/re-discovered again...

I was attacked by an idea: its not that Shunammite from king David this fire? Any cabbalist here able to distillate some practical info from it?

Perhaps if you are able to understand the allegory in such a way that pertains to alchemy - you may see some practical info. A Shunammite, or kind woman, often revives the old man (David, Elisha). It was thought at one time that sleeping with a young virgin could preserve the old man's youth by transferring her heat and moisture to him (Shunamitism). While it is up for debate, this old man is in my mind none other then our mercury.

Ah, now that's very interesting. Isn't the old man also allegorical of the hermit, and Cronus (Saturn)?

Human's are intertwined with the secret fire. I believe it's this secret fire that brings cognition to our mind, and also our ability as a species to evolve. We as humans should also increase our reserves of this secret fire, and our ability to absorb it. This should bring about the spontaneous evolution of our mind, body, and soul. Wouldn't the heat and moisture of the young virgin also be considered the secret fire?

I believe this is what alchemy is all about, but maybe I'm way off with all my conjecturing.
