'Solve Et Coagula'
(A 🧵) Across the Arms, in Éliphas Lévi's Rendition of Baphomet or the Goat of Mendes is the Alchemical Axiom: 'Solve Et Coagula' Meaning 'Dissolve & Coagulate', which are opposing Alchemical Processes. This is the Process of Perpetual Alchemical Rebirth.
Solve means breaking down of the elements which always reveal the energy underlying that animates these elements. It, also, refers to reSolving that which which is unreSolved in our awareness & emotions. The unresolved aspects are always Occult (Hidden) and Esoteric (Inner).
Coagula is the coming together of the elements, Unity Consciousness and Integration. Our traits, characteristics, structure, body type, mentality, attitude and more are all built on the elements. Something must always be broken down before it can be built up.
We must Break down these elements, or in other words, Solve and access the inner hidden essence underlying all elements (Vitriol).
From this non place of the energy and essence we Cougula or Integrate into a New Substance, rebirthed in Unity Consciousness through communing on the Inner Occulted planes, perpetually Solving-reSolving and continuously unifying-Coagulating.
Anything that comes up, we can break down (Solve), and return it to Sacred Unity Original Wholeness. 'Solve Et Coagula' 'Alpha & Omega' 'Aleph Tav' 'As Above, So Below, As Within, So Without' We All Come From the ONE & Eventually Return to the ONE.
'Solve Et Coagula' like the Baphomet truly represents the Process of the Alchemical Great Work, the Synthesis of All Opposing Forces. Solve Et Coagula means to Analysis & Synthesis, the True Path to All Knowledge. 🧵🔚
