Laws of Natural Motion

  1. Objects which contain more (Fire and Air) than (Earth and Water) Naturally Rise
  2. Objects which contain more (Earth and Water) than (Fire and Air) Naturally Fall
  3. An Object that moves against it's Natural Motion, is in Violent Motion
  4. An Object that moves sideways from it's Natural Motion, is in Violent Motion

Elements

  • Air
    • Naturally Rises
  • Earth
    • Naturally Falls
  • Fire
    • Naturally Rises
  • Water
    • Naturally Falls

Components

  • Components of the Stars
    • Conjecture - Heavy Earth Objects - Naturally Falling Things
  • Components of the Sun
    • Conjecture - Metamorphs - Violent things
  • Components of the Moon
    • COnjecture - Growing Things - Naturally rising Things

Process Conjecture and Thoughts

My issue is I do not know if we are seeking balance, natural motion, or violence.

It is my thought that we are trying to create something new, a tincutre, made from the four elements, through combinations of components. To me this implies creating a balance, or stability of existence. I feel here that in a way we are trying to create a reality box, or frame, containing opposing forces in elegant balance as to cause neither violent, nor natural motion. This could perhaps contain some force, or energy, or effect, that when acted upon with violence, then release the contained powers I.E. Create tincture as a balance, and thru the "violence" of consumption unleash the effect.

To this end, I intend to investigate how the relationship works, but first, I still need to learn Alchemical Maceration and build my Alembic and Assimilation Bath.

I feel the secret is locked in the type of spirits used. --Basilius 14:00, 21 January 2017 (EST)


More Useful Thoughts?

After further conversation by the Stranger Science Team with thestranger, we learned more of the details but now need a better nomenclature for the discussion. Snips from the conversation:


thestranger: When talking about balance, each object has a certain weight and is made up of these elements
thestranger: To turn lead into gold you would need to know the elemental weight of lead and gold, and then you could transmutate lento gold with the right mixture
thestranger: yes lead is heavier than gold
thestranger: There are only 4 elements, Fire, air, water, earth
thestranger: -2,-1,1,2
thestranger: maybe?
thestranger: Sun, moon, and stars are made up of these 4 elements
thestranger: the spirits are the water element
thestranger: that I am sure of
thestranger: so maybe -2 -1 0 -1
thestranger: my numbers are just hypothisizing
thestranger: -2 for fire as it floats -1 for air as it floats 0 for water as it does not and 1 for earth as it falls
thestranger: the season has changed
thestranger: The balance of mixtures will end up something like -9Qr1

Nomenclature

  • Everything is comprised of Four Elements [F]ire, [A]ir, [W]ater, [E]arth
  • Everything has an Elemental Weight or "EW"
  • Things with positive weight naturally fall
    • things with more Earth and Water
    • [F+A] < [W+E]
  • Things with negative weight naturally rise
    • things with more Fire and Air
    • [F+A] < [W+E]
  • Define Elemental Weight in terms of individual, but grouped Elements
    • EW = [F,A][W,E]
      • preparing for the issue of balance

Is he is saying:

  • Sun is Fire
  • Moon is Air
  • Spirits are Water
  • Stars are Earth

Must be a scale range.

I believe that the Components Represent Elemental Weight Ranges. High elemental weights are Components of the Stars Low to 0 or Balanced weights are Components of Spirit Slightly Negative, may also Balanced? weights are components of Air and Very Negative weights are Components of Fire

Each component will add it's Elemental Matrix value to the final result, and the tincture will be based on the combinative value.

Now I see two possible systems here

  1. Each Components Elemental Matrix is added, scaled by amount of that component, into a common mixture, and the sum of all elements, counter scaled by the sum of all component amounts
    • Moon[FAWE]xAmount + Sun[FAWE]xAmount + Spirits[FAWE]xAmount + Stars[FAWE]xAmount = Product
      • Product [F] = ([Moon[F]Amount + Sun[F]Amount + Spirits[F]Amount + Stars[F]Amount) / TotalAmount
  2. Each component total EW weight, determines by scale how much individual affect that Component has on the final
    • Such that a spcific Component of Star might have +2[E] affect by being heavier than a different Component of Star which might have a +1[E] affect
      • leaving the amount of each component affecting the final how??

What the hell did he mean by "-9Qrl"??? --Basilius 19:14, 22 January 2017 (EST)
