I would like to post some lyrics that I wrote a couple years ago, unaware as I am now of their contents, but I feel they are somewhat related to what we are discussing here.
Alchemist's Lament
Applying a formula, a mere ritual
The act of solving, a circle closed
Symbols, script and numbers awry
But all the calculations deny
A simple bond
Ancient degrees
A master of science
A magus indeed
A circle truly is the perfect shape
That of an atom, our planet as well
Shapes and figures in our control
A collision of matter, experiments unfold
To transform the place
Upon which we stand
A denial of nature
Which we wish to command
A magus, his own experiment
A scientist all but his own
Yet both must explore the other
To reach their farthest goals
A connection untold
Kept from discovery
A master of science
A magus indeed
Energy, a constant in both
A force to mold, to command
That which runs the cosmos
And the great cogs of time
A twisting and turning
True power in our hands
Destroyers and creators
Of worlds unknown
A master of science
A magus indeed
Yet one question still stands
Which side will command?

This was back before I had ever read any channeled material and I had been working from intuitive concepts of Hermetic Alchemy.
I was rather frustrated to see magic and science as divergent ideologies, when in my conception they are interwoven and meant to be utilized together.
That being said, maybe such inspirations as this are what contact with Intelligent Infinity is all about?
A friend once said to me: "God speaks in inspiration." That has always stuck with me since.
