Elemental Gold has and is still a symbol of power, knowledge, wealth, status, and authority since the ancients became aware of it. It has been standardized to back up and be a currency, is used in technology, and has adorned kings throughout time. Besides it’s physical qualities, Gold’s been used in medicine and has lengthy mythology surrounding it representing allegorical/archetypal structures within the human psyche, and the ancient alchemists hand a comprehension of it that we’re just beginning to uncover again, with the understanding that all metals are on their journey to become another metal until it’s transition into Gold. Throughout history one can find synchronistic connections with Gold, the Divine, the supernatural, and spirituality; from the Aztecs to the Sumerians, from the gold rush to the Space Age, transcending Time and Space and becoming a standard. It is the connection between the Conscious and the Unconscious realms of the human psyche and was the gift worthy for a god. Continuing the Work left behind, the Oil of Gold is now available to us, offering a rare opportunity to experience a truly regal expression of the Sun and Crown in our interesting modern times.
