The Church of the Emerald Tablet operates as a branch of the International Alchemy Guild under the direction of Ambrose Mellifico. The Church was originally founded by Dennis William Hauck (founder of the IAG) in 1996 and was passed on to Ambrose Mellifico in 2023. Its original mission was to act as the spiritual heart of the IAG which functioned as an institution for the practice of spiritual alchemy in an ecclesiastical format.
Today, we wish to keep true to this mission. Our church offers a system of ritual and prayer based on a confluence of various streams within the Western Esoteric Tradition. We smoothly amalgamate sympathetic elements of Hermeticism (classical, renaissance, and modern), western alchemy, Solomonic magic, Freemasonry, and various manifestations of the Christian religion (Rosicrucianism, Catholicism, orders of chivalry, etc.).
​
​
The Church of the Emerald Tablet has its home at the Bibliotheca Ortu Solis in Cincinnati, Ohio.
SERVICES
In keeping with the primary tenet of Rosicrucianism, Ambrose Mellifico performs healing rites and prayers every Wednesday evening according to requests received through the Church. These particular healing services are rendered to both members and non-members and are performed live via Zoom, or if requested, in private.
​
Divination services are also offered to members on a one-on-one basis using mediums such as tarot, geomancy, Homeric bibliomancy (PGM VII. 1-148), and Zoroaster's Telescope.
​
If local to Cincinnati, Ohio, Christian sacraments are also offered to members of the Church, such as Holy Matrimony, Baptism, various blessings, exorcisms, etc.
​
Other bespoke magical and religious services can be offered to members upon request, and all services are provided for free.
MEMBERSHIP
Our Church has three tiers of membership based on the hierarchy of workers of King Solomon's Temple (I Kings 5). Membership in our Church requires membership in the International Alchemy Guild which automatically enrolls one into our general tier of membership, that of the order of Ghiblim.
