△ Nigredo — The Blackening
Prima Materia must be broken down before it can be built up.
Element: Fire · Platonic Solid: Tetrahedron · Operation: Solve (Dissolve)
The Tetrahedron is the sharpest of the Platonic solids — 4 triangular faces, the minimum structure to enclose space. Fire reduces complexity to essence.
The Pythagorean theorem as alchemical metaphor: the known (a) and the unknown (b) produce the hypotenuse — the path you are on (c) — which is always longer than either alone.
