Cramer’s Emblemata Sacra, an Alchemical Heart Liber Mutus 2

by Iulia Millesima

6 Frangor – (I get smashed) – smash containers or break the gates, represents the hell crossing, the broken existence, the passage from life to death.


7 Immolor (I get slain, sacrificed) – on the sacrifice altar, there meet the mortal and the immortal. Souls join and merge with what is closer to them in nature, fire, and smoke.


8 Suo Tempore ( at his time) – triple purification by water, fire, and air. Three are the subjects: Macrocosm-microcosm-Mumia.


9 Mens Quo Vadis (mind where you’re going?) – monkey = human mind – ship=voyage to the netherworld – dolphin = mercurius or psychopomp fish


10 Mors in Olla (death in the pot) – souls join and merge with what is closer to their nature, fire and smoke, initiation test meal/banquet, foods of the sky, eating is merging with what you eat, you assimilate.


11 Ut Bibam (for me to drink) – the water is fire, flows like fire.


12 Mundabor (I get purified) – the pouring of philosophical light purifies the soul; the ceremony of anointing, the sacred libations, and the eyes also symbolize philosophical light. Mind, the light is that to listen with the ears.


13 Praegravor (I get overloaded)


14 Laetificor (I get fertilized, graced) – grapes juice/wine drink of immortality, wine is the breaking gates drink, wine is also associated with the universal dissolvent, the soul prepares his food and wine, a symbol of authentic instruction, the initiate eating, and drinking. It’s not necessarily a liquid but something that flows.


15 Fidens non Videns (I am brave, not seer) – eye=the Apollo light – is there a symbolic cave under the heart?
