Quote by Ralph Metzner

“After the stormy disruption of the elements, there comes a great peace. The elements then shine with a wonderful clarity, fire has no searing heat, air is free of dense clouds, water does not rage and flood, and the earth is not fragile and crumbling. Sun, moon, and stars sparkle in brilliant illumination and beauty; they stand still, so that there is no night, but only day. Since the body, as well as the psyche, is composed of the elements, there is great healing as the scattered and bruised fragments of our being are brought together again, in wholeness. The fiery aspect of our nature glows golden like the dawn; the air of our mind is clear and shining; the water currents of our body and the emotional currents of our psyche become transparent and still; the earthy part of our nature, our flesh and bones, becomes strong and well-proportioned. Here is revealed a vision of the total transformation possible for the human being—a psycho-alchemical transmutation of the elements from a state of disorder and conflict to a state of harmony and balance.”
