    Dear Beat,

    >> Would this mean that the purer a metal the stronger its power? <<

    If we define 'strength' as the degree of clarity of the given power,
    then yes.

    >> Could you agree with this my explanation from a magical point of view
    i.e.
    "reading in and out of the things"? Have you some more thoughts about
    this
    matter very basic to alchemy? <<

    The conundrum you present, and your solution, make perfect sense to me.
    As an ore, the pure metal exists within the context of energetic
    contrasts. To my "eye", it's like an oil floating atop water. The
    energy/essence of the pure metal is more readily accessible because the
    contrasting energetics push it to the surface, so to speak. I imagine
    that it's this dynamic of contrasting energetics that Alchemy recognizes
    as "alive" or "life".

    In this sense, the essential meaning of the pure metal is somewhat less
    bound to the *form*; or rather, it exists within the ore as smaller,
    individual quanta of form-bound essence, which would be easier to
    capture away from the ore than from an equal mass of the purified metal.
    A mass of purified metal, while it expresses the essential meaning more
    clearly, also creates a deeper bond of the essence to the form itself,
    since it is a single, larger quanta.

    If you apply your "meddle matter" to the pure metal, you extract *only*
    the energetic essence of the metal itself. On the other hand, if you
    apply it to the ore, this process is interfered with because of the
    presence of the impurities and their dynamic energetic contrast with the
    essence of the pure metal.

    Clear as mud? ;-)

    My best to you,
    :) Rawn Clark
