The alchemical magnum opus was sometimes expressed as a series of chemical operations. In cases where these numbered twelve, each could be assigned one of the Zodiac signs as a form of cryptography. The following example can be found in Pernety’s 1758 Mytho-Hermetic Dictionary:[3]
- Calcination (Aries
) ♈︎ - Congelation (Taurus
) ♉︎ - Fixation (Gemini
) ♊︎ - Dissolution (Cancer
) ♋︎ - Digestion (Leo
) ♌︎ - Distillation (Virgo
) ♍︎ - Sublimation (Libra
) ♎︎ - Separation (Scorpio
) ♏︎ - Ceration (Sagittarius
) ♐︎ - Fermentation (Capricorn
) ♑︎ (Putrefaction) - Multiplication (Aquarius
) ♒︎ - Projection (Pisces
) ♓︎
