The ancient Arabic name for Egypt was "Khemet", or "The Black
Land". The western continuation of the Egyptian magical arts was
called "Al-Khemet", meaning "from the Black Land". The cradle of
civilization is also the ancestral home of a high science of magic.
We explore the many modern encarnations of the ancient science of
perfection and the transformation of the "materia prima" of the
Alchemists. From Alchemy to Tarot, and in the many modern esoteric
and mystical societies existing today, we explore the hidden thread
that connects modern and ancient magic - The occult idea that
consciousness is the materia prima. The coal that turns into a
diamond. The lead that becomes gold.
