I hope you're answering questions and this one doesn't bother you. I'm curious about Tin/Jupiter and the roles it may have in an alchemical story.

I'm away from my reference books for a while, but off the top of my head the one character who is associated with Jupiter/tin is Ron Weasley in Harry Potter. Ron refers to Jupiter a few times in the series--he exclaims "By Jupiter" for example, if I recall correctly.

I know @hamliet has a copy of Lyndy Abraham's dictionary, so you might want to ask her to look up Jupiter/tin.

One of the plates in Splendor Solis is devoted to Jupiter, so that's a potential source of story ideas for an author who wants to work the "lesser" metals in. I'm unable to upload the image, but here's a description of it by Jorg Vonagel, an art historian at the State Museums of Berlin.

Drawn by two peacocks, their tail feathers down, Jupiter’s planetary chariot navigates its way across the heavens. Holding two arrows as attributes in his right hand, the planetary god sits enthroned in his chariot while an aid, kneeling before him, offers him a bowl. The more noble circles of society fall under Jupiter’s rule, including the nobility and the clergy. The painter of the Splendor Solis expands this group to include alchemists, whom he depicts in the right midground in a state of industrious activity. Here, one of the adepts can be seen leaning over towards a helmet-shaped oven-top known as an alembic, while the other one inspects the flask he is holding in his left hand. The left-hand side of the picture is occupied by a pigeon-blue palace building which is based on an engraving by Daniel Hopfer. Out the front of the building a pope seated beneath a red baldachin is crowning a new emperor. As is the case with several of the illustrations in the Splendor Solis, the coronation scene incorporates a number of details drawn from a woodcut in Hans Holbein the Younger’s series Bilder des Todes (Pictures of Death). Showing the emperor kissing the feet of the pope, Holbein’s woodcut “Der Bapst” (The Pope) signals the submissiveness of the secular world in the face of the church’s omnipotence. In the Splendor Solis, however, the emperor not only receives the crown with his head upright but is also endowed with the physiognomy of Charles v, who had just been crowned Holy Roman emperor in Bologna in 1530. This discovery is quite remarkable in an artistic sense insofar as the painter of the Splendor Solis took the liberty of updating the stereotypical pope and emperor featured in the original source of 1524-26 in order to capture the latest historical developments. Set within the angular niche of the inserted panel is a glass flask upon a green laurel wreath. Inside the flask, three birds – black, white and red – are fighting with one another. This renewed allusion to the three principal colours of alchemy is discussed in the text that precedes it. The painter copied the motif of the three fighting birds from the alchemical illuminated manuscript of the Aurora Consurgens. It symbolises the separation of matter by heating, its subsequent purification in the next stage of transmutation, and, as will be seen in the following miniature, its fusion into one bird with three heads.

Reaction: Well, here is the span of time that I read Hunger Games for the first time. It was a series that I read very fast, and enjoyed every minute as I was reading it, it's funny because I now am trying to get the motivation to read the prequel to The Hunger Games.

Waking up to snow days was always the best feeling. I don't get a lot of those days anymore. I find it funny that when we get newish kids working in the deli, they always ask if we still need to come to work id the snow is bad.

Katherine and Katie days were always fun, and I still remember parts and pieces of it. Katherine also introduced me to Avalon.

Tiara Tuesday with the French Crown Jewels. Most of you know that emeralds are one of my favourite stones. So naturally I'm obsessed with the Angoulême Emerald Diadem. Created by the incomparable Jeweler Bapst around 1820 from stones of the Royal Treasury.(Bapst also created and resetted a lot of jewels for Empress Eugénie). I adore its sweeping shape! Its a wonderful representation of early 19th century exquisite jewellers craftsmanship. It appeared in @wartski1865 vault in the 1960s as simply an emerald and diamond diadem and was exhibited in the V&A before moving permanently to the Apollo Gallery in the Louvre. The Emeralds, all beautiful in colour are enhanced by a closed setting, a thing which is now quite unusual and this is done in the a very delicate way makingthem more reflective, set in silver and gold. ✨👑✨👑✨👑✨ #london #paris #france #louvre #tiaratuesday #tiara #diadem #diamonds #emeralds #bourbon #monarchy #duchess #angouleme #ancienregime #history #jewels #jewelry #19thcentury #bapst #aesthetic https://www.instagram.com/p/CHaHHTvnhlW/?igshid=96qdnkof5p3h
