Planets and Metals - Mercury and Quicksilver. Through countless centuries a living connection between the earth and heavens was taken for granted.
The metals were considered to have an inherent affinity with their parent planets, and represented a material expression of living cosmic energies. This article is extracted from Nick Kollerstrom's book The Metal-Planet Relationship, an extremely important work which, through scientific analysis and metaphysical reflection, ties the prosaic realm of rational science to the qualitative realm of essence and being.

Mia and I spent the entire week seeking out all the great restaurants in the guidebook, shopping in Old Town, and visiting ancient ruins and religious landmarks in the nearby region. Something we discovered and worked with as we made our way through the territory all around Albuquerque were energy vortexes. Energy vortexes are spinning wheels or cones of energy that are often connected to the planetary light grids. A few of the aged and picturesque chapels we visited were built over energy vortexes. Quartz. Quartz is the second most abundant mineral in the Earth's continental crust, after feldspar.
It is made up of a continuous framework of SiO4 silicon–oxygen tetrahedra, with each oxygen being shared between two tetrahedra, giving an overall formula SiO2.

The phrase "passing the acid test" gained popularity in the gold-rush years of the 1850s when miners used strong acids to determine whether the metal they had found was real gold or not. If it bubbled and frothed on contact with acid, it wasn't gold. But even these failures produced something interesting and beautiful. When pure metals cool, they solidify into intricately interlocked crystals. You can't see the crystals because they fit together perfectly to form what appears to be a uniform mass with a smooth, solid surface. But acid can reveal the structure inside.
