Sulfur is a non-metallic element that occurs in both combined and free states and is distributed widely over the earth†™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¾¢‚¬Å¡‚¢s surface. It is tasteless, odorless, insoluble in water, and often occurs in yellow crystals or masses. It is one of the most abundant elements found in a pure crystalline form. Pliny (23-27 A.D.) reported that sulfur was a "most singular kind of earth and an agent of great power on other substances," and lauded its medicinal virtues.
This raining down of fire and brimstone from Heaven upon Sodom and Gommorah gave rise to the name of 'Fire and brimstone' sermons where hell and eternal damnation for sinners is stressed. It is from this part of the bible that hell is thought to smell of sulfur. This was undoubtedly a element lost in translation, as the Principle Sulphur was attributed to Capricorn` thus its obvious connection to the †™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬†™¢¢¬‚¦‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦¢‚¬Å“Devil.†™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬?
The word Sulfur, itself is attributed to Jabir ibn Hayyan (721-815 B.C.), the Modern father of Alchemy. It comes from the Arabic "sufra" meaning yellow, from the bright color of the naturally-occurring form of rock sulfur. Early alchemists gave sulfur its own alchemical symbol which was a triangle at the top of a cross. This symbol was symbolic of its nature as the general Causative agent of all Natural development. It is within the mountains and volcanic regions that the yellow stone was found in greatest abundance, and thus us is the nature of Sulfur and the location of it in raw form that yielded the words of Pliny. Among its most popular uses was as a medicine, a early antiseptic, a fumigant, and to repel pests. In the magnum opus of Homer, known as the Odyssey, this very use is mentioned, illustrating its use in the West.
Sulfur burns in air, with a blue flame. The burning of Sulfur produces Sulfur Dioxide, which is the first step in making sulfuric acid. This gas is captured for the production of Vitriol. Vitriol is one of the most important elements in the work of the Alchemist, and its uses are truly amazing. After Cinnabar (i.e. Dragon†™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¾¢‚¬Å¡‚¢s blood) †™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬†™‚¢‚¢¢¢¬…¡‚¬¢‚¬¦¢¢¬…œ Mercury Sulfide- was
Roasted to extract the Mercury, the stone was left inside a cave to weather. Especially needed for this process was Dew, which was often referred to as the †™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬†™¢¢¬‚¦‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦¢‚¬Å“Salt of Nature.†™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬? This weathering process causes a compound †™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬†™¢¢¬‚¦‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦¢‚¬Å“copper Sulfide†™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬? to form on the rocks.
The stone was then †™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬†™¢¢¬‚¦‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦¢‚¬Å“distilled in Nature†™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¾¢‚¬Å¡‚¢s salt†™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬? and heated to break it down into two things; iron compounds, the first foundations of †™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬†™¢¢¬‚¦‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦¢‚¬Å“steel†™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬? and sulfuric acid. This first liquid smells horrible and is mottled brown, but when †™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬†™¢¢¬‚¦‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦¢‚¬Å“putrefied†™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬?, it yields a yellowish liquid, called †™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬†™¢¢¬‚¦‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦¢‚¬Å“Vitriol†™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬?. Thus, Vitriol brought with it the development of Steel and Explosives, both by-products of the refining process, Sulfur is truly the God of War.
In as early as 1200 BC, sulfur was used to destroy an Acropolis, a walled city. The city was defeated by burning a mixture of coal, sulfur, and tar under the foundations of the wall. What followed the victory of this Kadmos, who came armed with unknown numbered of Phoenician soldiers was one of the Greatest civilizations the West has ever known. The legend is captured by the Greeks, as Cadmus pursues Zeus for carrying off his virgin sister Europa, after seducing her as a white bull. On his search it is said, Kadmos stopped at Delphi and was told to follow the tracks of a cow. As he traveled eastward from Delphi, he followed them to the lands of the tribes of Boetia. He defeats them, and names the City he erects Thebes.
Sometime in the 12th century, the Chinese invented gun powder which is a mixture of potassium nitrate (KNO3), carbon, and sulfur.
The Greeks and Romans discovered that sulphur could be utilized to make fire and the pyrotechnical displays associated with the Roman circus. The Romans also experimented with using sulphur with tar, rosin, bitumen, and other combustibles. Their work resulted in the production of incendiary weapons, but this ability disappeared with the decline of the Roman Empire. Crusaders returning from the Holy Land in the early 1300s brought with them the knowledge of gunpowder, which had been developed by the Chinese during the time of Confucius (557?-479 B.C.). The Chinese understood by mixing sulphur with Potassium nitrate, and carbon, one could create a highly stable and explosive compound which they used for rituals and the later for warfare. The exact means of its discovery is attributed to imparted divine understanding, or a sacred message.
Armed with the knowledge of gunpowder, Europeans demanded increasing quantities of sulphur, beginning in the 12th century and begin to set their minds on Global conquest.
However, the Spanish Empire had its own by-product of Sulfur, for its own steel is naturally more superior, and had been favored since the establishment of the sword-craft as a profession on which to build a reputation. Also, it is well known that the Spanish war horse was the key component to their ineffable conquest of South America. The Spanish war horse is superior in every way, owing to the sulfur content in the natural vegetation. These superior mounts are actually called †™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬†™¢¢¬‚¦‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦¢‚¬Å“sulphurs†™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬? to this day by breeders.
Sulfur is a key element in every known engine of war in the modern world. Sulfur is the key to all human conquest, even of itself. Nerve gas, Propellant systems, tracking systems, combat drugs like Glucasamine sulfate, are all well known and protested daily.
What is not so well known, however, is that Sulfur, occurring naturally in the body and in the diet is crucial to the development and facilitation of muscle growth and strength, and the actual ability of the body to override the instinct of fear, and the body†™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¾¢‚¬Å¡‚¢s natural pain killers. Sulfur is connected to the spirit of competition the feeling of conquest and the sex drive. Sulfur is invariably found in all proteins which forms animal DNA and is one of the essential keys to life.
It is found in the hair, nails and skin, and as much sulfur as potassium is normally found in the body. Sulfur is used to detoxify the body, assist the immune system and fight the effects of aging, as well as age related illnesses such as arthritis.
Although sulfur might not be an essential mineral, it is an essential element of protein, biotin as well as vitamin B1. It is further needed in the synthesis of collagen, which is needed for good skin integrity. Also, Sulfur is directly responsible for dreams and is the main component of the †™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬†™¢¢¬‚¦‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦¢‚¬Å“liquid neurohormone†™ ¢‚¬„¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¢†™‚¢‚¢¢¢‚¬Å¡‚¬¦‚¡¢‚¬Å¡‚¬? in the pineal gland, or the Third Eye. Also, Sulfur is used in the production of the neurotransmitters that allow consciousness and mental activity.
Sulfur is the natural manifestation of the animal instinct to hunt, defeat, fuck, kill, eat, and grow; but in a true case of irony, sulfur is also the key to overcoming the same weaknesses of the animal nature.
