Sunflower of the Wise by Leona Constantia

This manuscript, written around 1700, is an exceptional gem. Not only for its marvelous content, which once again turns our attention to metals because, as the author says, the Philosopher's Stone "must necessarily spring and flow from a metallic root," something in complete agreement with Trevisano and countless other adepts, but also because it belongs to the pen of a woman philosopher. Alchemy was known as the domain of men, and few female figures exist who have published texts and achieved adeptship. Among the very few pamphlets that abound here and there is this manuscript entitled Sunflower of the Wise. A beautiful work where we discover the adventures of this woman to reach the Stone, and once again, we discover the only path to it through metals.
