The Metal-Planet Affinities
By Nick Kollerstrom

�A type of symbolism which can be traced to sources much more ancient than any we have for alchemy is the association of metals with the planets� - F .Sherwood Taylor, Origins of Greek Alchemy, Ambix I p46.

Do metals have a being or essence that is in tune with the power of a specific planet?
We shall here re-examine this core alchemical concept.



The Sevenfold Pattern

   Silver / the Moon

   Quicksilver / Mercury

   Copper / Venus

   Gold / the Sun

   Iron / Mars

   Tin / Jupiter

   Lead / Saturn



   Plutonium / Pluto


A sister website: www.anth.org.uk/science/Kolisko examines

whether these traditional associations can work today.
