Projection
Projection (the casting of the stone) is an alchemical entry of fire, ruled by Sun and Jupiter, in the Hermetic Western tradition. It is used for manifestation, transmutation and completion.
One of Ripley's Twelve Gates, and the goal of the work: the finished stone is cast onto a base metal or into medicine to transmute it. The corpus records the operation as the tradition's account, not as a claim of literal metallic transmutation.
