Since Atlantis remains a myth so any document associated with it is going to be fictional at best. As The Emerald Tablet stands it is attributed to a pseudo-historical Hermès Trismegistus (Thrice Greatest), it is an alchemical document. My wife and I read The Tablet responsively as our wedding vow!

The Operation of the Sun is no riddle, it is the Western version of the fish-eating-the-fish, the Yin-Yang of continuous transformation, of thesis->antithesis->synthesis [repeat]. "Quod est inferius, est sicut quod est superius." We in the Microcosm are a reflection of the Macrocosm and The Opus Magnum (Great Work) is to refine what we bring down from what is above that we may manifest it below.
 We can accomplish this Work, this Alchemical Marriage of opposites both intrapsychically and interpersonally. On the Kabbalistic Tree, The Sun is Tiphereth, The Moon is Yesod.

It is called "The Operation of the Sun," which is the world's primary symbol for light taken physically or metaphysically.

Thoth is the name of an egyptian god from egyptian mythology. It saddens me a little bit to see such a cool bit of mythology being so warped and misrepresented here.
Thoth was the egyptian god of (among other things) writing, books, and knowledge more broadly. He is often depicted in libraries, such as the Library of Congress. He's an interesting mythological figure, the egyptians credited him with the discovery of all knowledge. They'd even write texts that began by claiming to be thoth, but this is more part of the broader tradition of claiming that all knowledge and writing comes from thoth. It is somewhat vaguely similar to opening a written work by asking the muses for inspiration in that it is understood that the writer is not actually thoth.
Anyway, the actual egyptian mythological figure thoth has nothing to do with what is being talked about here, and I hope that stuff like this won't prevent people from looking into egyptian mythology which is one of the coolest world mythologies.

Many internet searches later And it seems there’s basically 0 credibility to “The Emerald Tablets of Thoth” ( of course this statement has nothin to do with the real and original “Emerald Tablet” )
Disappointing but best to learn this stuff early before one wastes too much time on something

It's the journey not the destination that is important.

It’s such a weird thing Those writings They hold a lot of valuable things My current and so far best idea is that it’s like “Thus Spoke Zarathustra” , where it’s a work of fiction which embodies philosophical ideas Seems to be Kolbrin and Hermeticum inspired.
