Orientation and Purpose
This site is my record of an extended theurgic and alchemical process: the completion of the Great Work and the formation of the Greater Stone. I do not set this down only to reflect on it but to share how the process unfolded in practice, with its real progression and visible outcomes. The method throughout is pathworking, a practice long attested by figures such as Zosimos of Panopolis and Jacob Boehme as a way of engaging directly with the operations of transformation.
The project began with Pathworking the Gateway, an introductory text offering foundational methods for experiential work. It was followed by Solar Dominion, which revealed itself to be a preliminary alchemical operation, the formation of the solar or golden body. The tone and method of that book differ from the first, but both works belong to a single sequence. The tools developed in the early stages continued to serve in later ones.
Development of the Work
The website itself grew from explorations in sacred geometry. The study of the Platonic solids provided the first impulse, a catalyst that set the larger current of the Work in motion. From there, the posts trace a coherent order of transformation that leads step by step toward the consummation of the Great Work.
A later phase centered on the Black Sun or Invisible Sun, a cycle I once thought might be a book but chose instead to unfold here in a more personal and flexible form. The Black Sun and Lattice series mark the turn into explicitly alchemical territory. The lattice shows the energetic and structural basis of existence, a living geometry perhaps corresponding to what ancient writers described as the fiery or plasmic substrate of being.
Transformation and Encounter
Across these operations the subtle body passes through successive transformations. In one culmination there was a direct encounter with a feminine intelligence, whose identity became clearer only in later work. She proved to be the initiating presence of a regenerative process, the cycle of rebirth that marked the true beginning of the alchemical ascent.
Following this renewal, the Anabasis explored the discovery of the higher intellect or Nous. The current Alchemy goes further, engaging the psyche and the daimon in the work of integration and embodiment.
Continuing the Work
The Work remains ongoing, and new series will appear as further stages unfold. Readers who follow the path described here may find that many of its images and operations correspond closely with visionary and alchemical accounts, though I only recognized those correspondences after the fact.
Each person’s experiences will differ. Certain obstacles, bindings, inherited conditions, or psychic impediments may arise and must be resolved before further progress is possible. Some aspects of these operations remain unwritten. The rhythm of advancement varies: sometimes the process moves swiftly, at other times it stalls and requires renewed attention of will.
This record exists to show the continuity of the Work as I have lived it: from geometry to fire, from vision to embodiment, from the black sun to the golden body.
