The Black Alchemist's Interests
General
My interests are my life, for I will live and die a master of the alchemical art, and pursue every course I need to in order to leave this world an all-wise immortal soul.
Rare books and manuscripts on the magical arts, alchemy, magic spells, theurgy, geotia are my passion, and I have consulted quite a few during this meagre life.
Music
My interests in music are for contemplative purposes only, and so I would have to choose the minimalistic tones of sufi trance music. I cannot understand how Andrew Collins in THE BLACK ALCHEMIST claims that he brought forth the goddess Hekate by listening to the ‘gothic’ rock music of the band ‘Fields of the Nephilim’.
Movies
I do not watch films of any kind, choosing instead to see the inner films of the mind, which enable me access to any time or moment in human history. The sad portrayals of historical events in so-called ‘blockbuster’ movies are simply pathetic, since none of them gain a true sense of what our ancestors experienced in the past.
Television
A God-forsaken invention meant to distract the world away from the true path of magic. You will not find one in my house, as your psychic Bernard might have noticed during his little intrusion into my home. But then again, he did leave in rather a hurry …

Heroes
FORERUNNERS
I do not have ‘heroes’, as this prevents the human soul from achieving its own greatness in this world. I have forerunners, and among them are Bolos of Mendes, Zosimos of Panopolis, Roger Bacon, Dr John Dee and Edward Kelly.
The Black Alchemist portrayed as the destroyer of England's so 'sacred' landscape in the 1991 50th anniversary issue of 'The Green Arrow' comic. I do not destroy I evolve.
The 'Black Alchemist' again, this time in the Play Station game2 game 'Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness'. He apparently lived in Prague. Nice please, would I follow in the footsteps of Dee or Kelly?
Do we have a revised release date for the New version Please? Also will there be a book launch? I hope so because I might actually get a chance to catch up with everyone again!
Actually I haven't read the book, so I'll be from the lucky ones to go through the remastered edition, in October, unsuspected.
I'm sending you a 'forbidden' picture with the portrait of a common friend...
P.S: As for Andrew's claim to have brought fourth Hekate by listening to Fields of the Nephilim, I see nothing strange in that. It happens to me all the time!...
Hey there, I'm sure some of you here went to the Nephilim Gig on the 24th, you have my deepest green envy, and how the hell was it?? Accounts please.. please... Next one will mean a plane ticket home.
Hello Black Alchimist, many thanks for the add.
I am pleased to belong to your circle of friends now
Your page here fascinates me. I can this read in a very interesting way.
I have to say it's been extremely windy here this year - do you have anything to do with it?
And why is it that so many people of your age retire to Eastbourne?
Thank you for the invite. Read BA many times but cant get a copy of Second Coming for love or money. Or at least not for under £60 and I'm not that rich! Hope all is good.
