📱 eBook en inglés WRITINGS OF MARIA PROPHETISSA, THE JEWESS

The Writings of Maria Prophetissa, the Jewess present a contemporary and authorial reconstruction of the alchemical tradition associated with one of the founding figures of Western alchemy. Known in ancient sources as an operative authority rather than a speculative philosopher, Maria Prophetissa survives through fragments preserved by authors such as Zosimos of Panopolis, where she becomes a fundamental reference for the understanding of fire, the vessel, and the proper timing of the Work. This book does not attempt to restore a lost treatise or offer a purely academic study, but to reactivate a way of thinking and operating alchemy. Drawing exclusively from public-domain traditional principles, the work organizes fragments inspired by the ancient tradition into a continuous, clear, and symbolic discourse, expressed in a language accessible to the contemporary reader without diminishing the integrity of the Art. Throughout the book, the technical foundations attributed to the Marian tradition—such as the moderated fire, the sealed vessel, and the famous Bain-Marie—are presented alongside the central themes of classical alchemy: the union of opposites, necessary dissolution, and regeneration. Each stage is approached not only as a material process but also as the reflection of a deeper transformation, requiring attention, patience, and fidelity to the rhythms of nature.
