Part One — Mythos
In the Mythos of Citrinitas, we explore sacred stories, paradoxes, and symbols that shine a luminous light on our evolving awareness. Here the journey becomes subtler — shifting from the purification of Albedo toward glimpses of non-dual understanding.
These chapters illuminate how the subtle body, visionary practices, and profound scriptures guide us beyond the familiar terrain of mind. We meet teachings that break our conceptual habits, inviting direct experience of spaciousness and compassion.
Let these myths and archetypes serve as gentle lanterns. They don’t replace realization — they merely point toward it, encouraging us to rest into the natural brilliance that Citrinitas gradually reveals.
From the forthcoming volume Citrinitas: A Course in Modern Alchemy. This book continues the transformative path begun in Nigredo and Albedo. Return here for updates.
