'Alchemy, dear friend, contains various traps most dark, And many researchers release the prey to the shadow in this Art. Behold, in a few verses, the tale of the Great Work in sincerity For those who solemnly seek it; may they herein find clarity.' Thus begins the first treatise of the "Alchemical Pleiade", one of the core writings of the French Rosicrucian Order, Frères Aînés de la Rose+Croix, and the Second of the Three Keys on the Magnum Opus as practiced by this Fraternity. The method of confecting the legendary Philosopher's Stone studied & practically executed by this highly secretive Brotherhood is nowadays famous among alchemists as the Cinnabar Path, but outside of the French alchemical community this amazing Way of the Great Work is very poorly understood due to by far most of the teachings thereof being in French. Yet now, for the first time in the history of the F.A.R.+C., one of the original publications of the Order, consisting of a compilation of official papers written by the Adepts of the Alchemical Temple of Ajunta, has finally become available in an official English translation. Among the contents in the "Alchemical Pleiade", one finds analyses of certain enigmas of old alchemical writings, a beautiful poem providing a complete overview of the Way of Cinnabar, various fascinating treatises dealing with the alchemical interpretation of biblical texts and much more. And in the midst of all these beautiful allegories, analogies and philosophical expressions, the theory, philosophy, mechanics and practice of the entire Cinnabar Path of the F.A.R.+C. is revealed.
