Description

The Emerald Tablet—an ancient document that contains the essence of the alchemical teachings—has had an important influence on many Western spiritual and religious traditions. Ostensibly concerned with turning base metals into gold, alchemy was in fact dedicated to transforming the lead of self into the gold of spirit. This brilliant history of alchemy traces its sources back to ancient Egypt, and presents alchemy as a useful, practical system of self- transformation. Each of the seven steps of alchemical transformation is explained, with hands-on techniques and exercises, treating alchemy as a living discipline for achieving a spiritual awakening.

    • Excellent
Really good book, very interesting.

    • The Emerald Tablet as a beginner
This is a great book for those just starting their alchemical path. Hauck has a deep knowledge of this subject and is offering a clarity that is not found in most books. He breaks things down with ease and is not shy to address the nuances between various areas. If you also adore this book, and you are looking for alchemical training, find his website-based courses. ... show more

    • Blowing my Mind....a second time!
Review Image by Lauri Ann Lumby Lauri Ann Lumby
The Emerald Tablet: Alchemy for Personal Transformation is blowing my mind and is blowing it a second time as I re-read my personal dog-eared and heavily highlighted, underlined and written in the margins copy of Hauck's brilliant masterpiece. This is THE book of all books on Alchemy....because it reveals alchemy at its core which is a process for personal transformation - supporting the reason we are indeed here as humans - to become fully self-actualized. This work has validated and concretized my own work, giving me the long-sought after name for what I have been doing and teaching for the past 20+ years - Christian Alchemy. Thank you Dennis for this exhaustive and comprehensive work. I am relishing my second read and look for to the third!

    • Superb
If you are ready to hear what this book has to say, it will change your life. Great explanation of Hermetic philosophy and how it has influenced many great minds.

    • Informative and thought provoking
I found this a fasinating read. For the interested layman it gives a good account of alchemy's history in Europe, and explains the basic stages of transformation. Nevertheless, the book confirms that the hermetic form of mysticism seems to be based primarlily on the intellect, so inevitably tends to focus on self rather than others. Thus the power of reason supercedes that of love, which means that adherents (Freemasons, Knights Templars, Rosicrucians, and so on) were susceptible to and had reputations for arrogance. Though I personally enjoy books of this type, ultimately I can't bring myself to share the authors enthusiasm for the alchemical ideal. ... show more

    • The Emerald Tablet is a Gem
First of all, discount the detractors of this excellent book! Whether you are simply surveying alchemical history and traditions or want a shelf reference book for your personal mystical endeavors, this is a highly useful work by a long-time student and master in the hermetic disciplines. These sorts of books require patience to assimilate and interpret, from allegory and metaphor to practical application. Bear in mind that as more ancient history is uncovered through archaeology and the process of human evolution is extended back along the timeline of our development, what might presently be unacceptable to some becomes validated in many unexpected ways by discovery of humanity's deeper past and its expanding inter-relational data base. Enjoy this read! Most of all, always, be a walking question mark in anything you read, see or otherwise experience. ... show more

    • Fabulous read
Though a series of synchronistic events this book wound up in my hands. I find it a fascinating read, and I look forward to reading more books by Dr. Hauck.

    • An Excellent Book To Become Familiar with Alchemy
Dennis did a phenomenal job giving facts, history, insight, real life stories for each stage of alchemy, and application tips for spiritual/personal growth! This can be applied to an individual no matter WHAT religious, spiritual, or neither path they are walking in this incarnation! I have heavily marked up this book with my own thoughts, notes, observations. I know that Dennis curated the Alchemy Museum at the Rosicrucian Museum & Park in Northern California and I plan on visiting! I really appreciate Dennis recommending additional books regarding Alchemy that one should look into if they are interested! ... show more
