Pensamiento Khunrath

''Darkness will appear upon the face of the deeps; Night, Saturn and Antimony of the Wise will appear. Blackness, and the Raven's Head of the Alchemists, and all the colours of the World will appear at the moment of conjuntion. The Rainbow, too, God's messenger, and the Peacok's Tail...Finally, after the ashen-colour, whiteness and yellowness have been passed through, you will see the Philosopher's Stone, our King and Lord of Lords, come forth from the inner-chamber and throne of his glassy sepulchre, onto this wordly stage, in his glorified body, that is, Regeneratedand Surpassingly Perfect, namely, a shining Carbuncle, most Temperate in its splendour, and whose most subtle and must purified parts, from the concordant peace of the mixture, are inseparably bound into ONE.'' (Heinrich Khunrat(1560-1605): Amphitheatre of Eternal Wisdom(1595,1609) La forma que Khunrath presenta la descripción es visual y metafórica con cambios de colores alquímicos previos a la aparación de la Piedra Filosofal en vidrio y vaso hermético.
