To Create the Elixer of Life

by S.C.

 

Take the winged lion and a whale and put them together, then add Saturn and a red rose. Then it will slowly begin to catch on fire. When the fire is done, add the ancient wolf. Then put Aquarius the Water carrier in the mixture. Then you must add the dragon that is in flame. Then add Leo the Lion when the dragon is done. The Queen will need to be added before you come close to the crown. Add some Jupiter before continuing. Put in a little bit of Venus, and you will once again notice the trees. Then add the lion and the mixture will become water. When it is done, you have ouroboros.
