Air Does What Warmth Ordains

Projective Mythology Series #3 In The Poetics of Space, Gaston Bachelard wrote, "Childhood is greater than reality." The articulation of this presence of possibility reflects the mystery fundamental to cosmology. Whether seeking insight from ancient wisdom, through visionary insight or present-day science, the compelling feeling for "the beginning" is birthed as a child distinguishes "home" from that of the outside world, then opens to a sense of wonder. Borne upon imagery and Hermetic objectives, Air Does What Warmth Ordains (the third in a series of alchemical notebooks) is an excursion into a projective-mythological sensibility for causation and spagyric process; into an experiential bath of infra-sensible, supersensible and perceptual influences. And into ways of touching the cosmic unfolding that informs evolution. Andrew Franck is a philosopher whose interests include the history of consciousness, Goethean science and somatic psychology.
