The Mystical Union of Sun and Moon
The Mystical Union of Sun and Moon  
die_mystische_vereinigung_von_sonne_und_mond.jpg
The union of sun (Sol) and moon (Luna) in the bath is an ancient alchemistic motif (see Mylius, Philosophia reformata, 1622; Lexikon der Symbole, Udo Becker). The masculine and feminine principles unite in water, the element of cleaning, renewal and rebirth. The hermaphrodite, the power that is independent of sexual determination because it unites the masculine and the femi- nine principle in itself, hovers above Sol and Luna and stimulates them with bolts of knowledge.
