"As above, so below" is a modern paraphrase of the second verse of the Emerald Tablet of Hermes Trismegistus. Many translations of the actual text have appeared over the centuries, including that by Sir Isaac Newton:
"Tis true without lying, certain and most true. That which is below is like that which is above and that which is above is like that which is below to do the miracle of one only thing. And as all things have been and arose from one by the mediation of one: so all things have their birth from this one thing by adaptation. The Sun is its father, the moon its mother, the wind hath carried it in its belly, the earth is its nurse. The father of all perfection in the whole world is here. Its force or power is entire if it be converted into earth. Separate thou the earth from the fire, the subtle from the gross sweetly with great industry. It ascends from the earth to the heaven and again it descends to the earth and receives the force of things superior and inferior. By this means you shall have the glory of the whole world and thereby all obscurity shall fly from you. Its force is above all force, for it vanquishes every subtle thing and penetrates every solid thing. So was the world created. From this are and do come admirable adaptations where of the means is here in this. Hence I am called Hermes Trismegist, having the three parts of the philosophy of the whole world. That which I have said of the operation of the Sun is accomplished and ended."
The Kybalion notes "The great Second Hermetic Principle embodies the truth that there is a harmony, agreement, and correspondence between the several planes of Manifestation, Life and Being. This truth is a truth because all that is included in the Universe emanates from the same source, and the same laws, principles, and characteristics apply to each unit, or combination of units of activity, as each manifests its own phenomena upon its own plane."
This cryptic 'foundational text' of alchemy has intrigued, fascinated and informed for hundreds of years influencing luminaries such as John Dee, Roger Bacon, Isaac Newton, Agrippa, Swedenborg, Blavatsky etc and André Breton incorporated the main axiom of the Emerald Tablet into the Second Manifesto of Surrealism. The text and the Law of Correspondence, still resonates strongly to this day and is of course incorporated in the symbology of the Tarot Magician.
This video is dedicated to all those who tend the flame.

Song of Myself, 51
by Walt Whitman (1819 - 1892)
"The past and present wilt-I have fill'd them, emptied them.
And proceed to fill my next fold of the future.
Listener up there! what have you to confide to me?
Look in my face while I snuff the sidle of evening,
(Talk honestly, no one else hears you, and I stay only a minute longer.)
Do I contradict myself?
Very well then I contradict myself,
(I am large, I contain multitudes.)
I concentrate toward them that are nigh, I wait on the door-slab.
Who has done his day's work? who will soonest be through with his supper?
Who wishes to walk with me?
Will you speak before I am gone? will you prove already too late?"
