The Archeometer - Saint-Yves d'Alveydre....
#6912181 - 05/13/07 11:47 PM (16 years, 8 months ago) |

I found this Archeometer as designed by Saint-Yves d'Alveydre, and was intrigued to find out more information on it.... After searchig for a while, I found, that there isn't really a lot of info on it that describes it's actual use, nor how to actually use it....
It says, "The Archeometer was a grandiose machine, which "translated into the material the word, form, color, smell, sound and taste,"' it was the "key to all religions and all the sciences of antiquity"
Further says, "Saint-Yves d'Alveydre wrote in eight pages everything that he wanted the public to know about his mysterious device. "
Now, I have looked under that patent number in the French and USA database, and nothing turned up for "333.393", nor "Archeometer".... Does anybody possibly know where to find the "8 pages of instructions" that is written for this, or have any further info about it....? It would be very neat to test out the relationships that it is supposed to relate with sound, color, taste, smell, and such....  ***IF***, there was a way to actually read the damn thing....!? 
I altered this image by saturating the colors a bit to make it and the symbols more clear when viewing full screen....

The original unadulterated image:

Taken from: http://www.theos-talk.com/archives/200202/tt00460.html
"""It is not known what happened to Wronski's Prognometer upon Levi's death two years after he found the device. Except for one etching, no picture of the Prognometer exists. It was Wonski's Prognometer, the "extraordinary calculating machine" that is considered a possible inspiration" for another strange device, invented by French occultist Saint-Yves d'Alveydre (1842-1909). His fame in occult circles is derived mainly from his book Mission de Vinde en Europe, in which the 19th century esoterists learned more about the subterranean realm of Agarttha.12 But Saint-Yves d'Alveydre did not consider this or his other esoteric books to be his greatest works, nor his ideas on the use of seaweed as a means of nurture. In the last period of his life Saint-Yves d'Alveydre was totally devoted to his great invention which he called the Archeometer. He even obtained a patent, no.333.393, dated June 26, 1903 for this invention. **** The Archeometer was a grandiose machine, which "translated into the material the word, form, color, smell, sound and taste,"' it was the "key to all religions and all the sciences of antiquity," and consisted of a disc or discs of colored cardboard with some very complex diagrammatic arrangements. **** In the pamphlet Archioni&re. Brevet d'invention no 333.393 that was printed in 1903,1 Saint-Yves d'Alveydre wrote in eight pages everything that he wanted the public to know about his mysterious device. From this we learn more about the design of his Archeometer. The disc was divided in concentric zones. These zones or divisions contained the correspondences that existed between numbers, letters, colors and musical notes, the signs of the zodiac and of the planets. On it was also found the invaluable alphabet of Watan. These letters were held of the utmost importance since through these one could rediscover the elements of the symbolic and figurative signs developed in antiquity and the meaning of which had been lost since time immemorial. Also included in the Archeometer was a metric system, destined to reform sonometry, that could be used in the determination of the proportions of all the graphical constructions. **** While it is suggested that Wronski's Prognometer was perhaps the inspiration of the Archeometer ' Saint-Yves could equally have been inspired by Keely's musical charts. Upon examination, one is stricken with the uncanny resemblance that Keely's charts have with the discs of Saint-Yves Archeometer. **** Saint-Yves terminology as exemplified in the parlance of the "red race" points towards Theosophical influences, which are also clearly visible in his esoteric oeuvre."""

Maybe this forum will have someone that knows more about this thing.....(?)
Is it just abstract esoteric art, or is there an actual intended and useful way to use this thing....? The only info I could dig up was what some of the meanings of the symbols were, not any instructions on how to actually use it....

Do you happen to know musical notation, or can you decipher the actual chromatic notes and their positions for me....? That would be a good start, I am studying symbolism/esoteric symbols on my own right now, and might be able to figure out some of the rest of the stuff in time....
I guess the letters at the bottom are from a number of different languages, so that might take a while....
But, there is supposed to be "instructions" on how to use this written by the creator of it.... It would be neat to find these instructions to see how this was intended to be "used"....
Either way, I think it is freakin neat....!  I have been interested in figuring this thing out since I found it some time ago....

look not with your own eyes but with your heart- so say the masters- of that which you are concerned all that is written is plainly before you.that which is divided one into two- three into one is but one thing in the world. it is everywhere and in all places.it is neither 1)earth 2)fire 3)air 4)water but it lacks none of these things- the key you seek is not with i but only with self can you find it. 3-3-3.3-9-3.*other people believe that a gift earned is well received and one that is given away is worth but little.!!! ximota

part of it is a zodiac for sure. look towards the center and you'll recognize the 12 planets (the common nine + the sun + the moon + the counter-earth nibiru i believe), associated with the 12 signs of astrology.
i am unable to decipher the symbols that lie further outside of the mandala, but it is apparent that they coexist with the zodiac as well.
it would be interesting to discover what they mean, and of course, how to use this piece of alchemical technology.

There are all kind -o- symbols all over that thing.... I am starting to wonder by the wording in the textual description if the "cardboards discs" are pinned in the middle and rotatable....(?)
That would add a whole new spin to the mystery....

It would be a difficult technology to manufacture, given the required elements are no longer all present. A great loss was effected that sunny day long ago...We scanned the skies for years.

It's an in depth study on the relationship of 3, when three is the given.
A pyramid/triangle with yellow at the apex and blue and red at the base. Within the triangle is a wheel, so then this could be a map of relationships much like a horoscope for determining the forces that one will encounter when proceeding in any given direction. Accepting that the forces are based on 3 rather than 4 or 5 etc. could be misleading.
A triangle is purported to be the most stable structure enclosing space and yet I don't see it used much except in roofs over rectangles which evolves into a circle or 'cone' such as the nose cone of a rocket. The picture could then be viewed as a simplified version of a cone with the central circle being the apex closest to you.
So, for me, it looks like attributing greater influences to the primary colors is a mistake just as buying into given of 3 could be misleading. A circle or cone is more advanced and yet not so easy to manufacture for primitive cultures (excluding those round African dwellings)
I think it can be an interesting project to ascribe character and relationships to lateral movement of a cone thru space and time.

Interesting! I personally would start by trying to decipher the key at the bottom of the page. I can't read any of it, too blurry. And I immediately wondered about whether or not it would spin. The picture of wheel spokes in the center makes me think it would spin.
I know someone who devotes alot of time in the study of obscure mystical knowledge. I'll see if they have ever heard of it.
Some believe that the triangle is not actually about the number 3 (although the number for patent kind of makes you think that) but is about the number 4. " Three sides and the one in the center which binds them all together".

Yeah, for all I know I could be completely off-base about the thing.
I was thinking that there was a way to test the hypothesis in that any inflection toward the yellow would cause drag (in the allegory of a missile head) and cause the rocket to veer in that direction. But of course that could be more than countered by both blue + red inflecting oppositely. If blue+red cannot counter inflect then the triangle is not equilateral. and so one may as well scrap the triangulational theory.

That would be great, print a copy or e-mail him/her the image....!
In actuality, a sphere is the strongest "structured 3D shape" (that is why you can't smash an egg in your hand while equally squeezing).... An arch is stronger than a triangle for "top-load".... When something is at rest on a surface, it is only sitting on three contact points (no matter how flat any of the surfaces are)....

You totally lost me on that part.... I got the 3 sides part, but are you saying there is one side in the middle....? Please explain what you mean....

I think it would be like an axis. It's just something I read, not something I really believe. Not anything major.
It will take a few days for me to get back to you on what my friend says. If she comes up with anything at all. But you never know. She collects alot of old books.

Right, I've heard the Triangle = 4 points too.
Many of these types of diagrams and engravings have been altered, or have deliberate omissions and repetitions by the author, to make sure that only those with the "lost keys" can drive.
I've heard these diagrams literally create an electro-magnetic vortex, and can be used to amplify thought forms and manifest intention.
They also are used to draw straight lines from letter to letter, while spelling a name or word, which creates a Sigil representing the name/idea that can be placed on a Talisman or Amulet.
This one appears to also be a rosetta stone linking Watan to Ancient Hebrew. I wish it was a better scan.
I don't think it's supposed to spin, because it's purpose is create definite correspondences. Like linking the 12 signs of the Zodiac to the 12 notes of the chromatic scale for example. It also links the 12 signs of the Zodiac to their planetary rulers - the Moon rules Cancer, Mercury rules Gemini, etc.
These correspondences (especially colors) are not "set in stone" they can change depending on the system of Magic being implemented.
The Symbols in the points of the large Triangles are Watan for the Planets, The Large Symbols in the Outermost Ring are Watan for the Houses of the Zodiac.

Ok this is what I have so far. In the key (you know the writing below it) I was told that it looked like the Enochian Magical Alphabet. If not it's something very similar. I'll be able to get the key to the Enochian Calendar soon.
Also try Edgar Cayce's Planetary Color Musical Note Alignment Chart (possibly called planetary alignment chart).
Interesting info on the sigil Middleman. I had immediately noticed the zodiac but hadn't noticed it was the ruling planets in the other circle. Makes sense, that's why some are on there more than once.

Right on, I wish I could see the muscial notes more clearly.
It's not Enochian on the outer points though, it's Watan or Votan which is supposedly an Atlantean astral-alphabet. You can see how the Watan symbols on the points repeat like the planets, and the ones outside the points don't, so they must be the Zodiac.
Interesting how both the traditional and Watan repeated planet symbols are mirrored...

I found a bit: http://kingsgarden.org/English/Organizations/OM.GB/Alveydre/Archeometre.html "The archéomètre is it the measurement of 'Archè' (Universal Cosmic Force) of which the Hermetists speaks. It is a process, a 'key' which provides entrance to the Mysteries of the Word.
The archéomètre is a measuring instrument for the primary principles of the manifested universe.
Alexandre Saint Yves d'Alveydre's Archéomètre shows the original Atlantean alphabet translated into the material the word, form, color, smell, sound and taste. It is the key to all religions and sciences of Antiquity.
The archéomètre is represented by a circle, which has two scales, one from 0 to 360 degrees and the other from 360 degrees to 0. It is divided into 12 segments of 30 degrees each.
In the individual ranges are drawn in the signs of the Zodiac, the planets, the colors, the music and the letters of different alphabets.
The archéomètre is a universal canon, which wants to establish the relationship between the astrological components, music, smells, letters and colors. The musician finds in it the color of tones, the writer the sound of letters, etc..
Beside this the archéomètre has also a practical use for religion, the arts and architecture, and is a synthesis of different ranges of form.
The term archéomètre is derived from the Greek and has a meaning close to "the measure of the principle". The system refers also to a series of symbols and meanings belonging to the Universal Tradition.
Since the Mysteries of the Universal Tradition are multitude, and differ depending strongly on local culture, d'Alveydre had to elevate himself above all the traditions which are contained in the Tradition: on the one hand the ancient Hebrew tradition, from which the concept of the signs of the Zodiacs and the other constellations, as well as the letters of the holy Alphabets are drawn, and on the other hand a tradition asian descent, in which the drawer is admired as "Sanctuary of the secrets".
On the disk of the archéomètre different components are represented: asterisks, planet, degree numbers, of music notes, and mainly all the letters of very different alphabets. These letters of diverse languages are from various alphabeths: French, Syrian, Assyrian, Samaritan, Kaldean, Arab and a few more. In addition, the letters of the holy alphabet [Hebrew], which is a reflection of the astral alphabet.
Here d'Alveydre uses only nineteen letters instead of the traditionally twenty-two, since the three 'Mother' letters are missing. The nineteen letters are the sum of the twelve Signs of the Zodiac and the seven planets. The meaning of the letters and the alphabets is therefore of such a great importance, a condition exists which creates the method of the mathematical combinations, which is central to many esoteric systems.
The numerical basis of the archéomètre expressed in a duodecimal system (or a base 12 system), which derives from a triplicity (3 x 4).
The system of the archéomètre consists of different concentric circles of correspondences, and contains the respective concordances: the colors, the planets, the signs of the Zodiac, the musical notes, whith letters and the numbers.
The four equalateral triangles form its center. They form twelve points, each pointing to a color.
The first triangle - which corresponds to the Earth - points to yellow, blue and red represents the most important legend. Behind lays the triangle corresponding with Water, which points to violet (as mix of red and blue), to orange (a mix of red and yellow), and to green (a mix of yellow and blue).
The rotation of these two basic triangles of 60 and/or 30 degrees produces the triangles corresponding to air and the fire. These triangles point towards internmediary tones, which are the products of the mixture of the two color neighbours.
The center of the figure is white, representing all the colors, the unity. Beyond the circles which enclose the "archéomètre", is black which represents the absence of light, thus the absence of any color. Here is symbolized the realm of the outside darkness.
Astrology follows the same structure for the signs of Fire (Aries, Lion and Sagittarius) in an anteclockwize giration, and the same occurs for the three Earth Signs (Capricorn, Taurus and Virgo). It is the same for the Air Signs (Libra, Aquarius and Gemini) and the Water Signs (Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces) .
What regards the allocation of the seven planets into the twelve Signs of the Zodiac, the so-called domiciles of the planets, the Sign in which it prevail), the Sun comes first, which symbolyses the day and the Moon, which is assigned to the night, have only one individual domicile, Lion and cancer, respectively.
The allocation of the planets follows the Zodiac symmetrically devided into two halves, one dedicated to the Sun, the other to the Moon. Every planet -- with exception of Moon and Sun -- rules in two Signs and there are thus two colors associated to them. These signs are named Domicile and Exaltation. These are the colors of the oxides or salts of the metal, which is assigned to the planet. In most cases each of these metals has two oxides.
Saturn in its Domicile -- in Capricorn -- corresponds to the yellow color. Saturn in Exaltation -- in Aquarius -- corresponds to the yellow-orange color.
Jupiter in its Domicile -- in Pisces -- corresponds to that orange color, Jupiter in Exaltation -- in Sagittarius -- corresponds to green-yellow and so on. The correspondances of the metals to colors are: gold belongs the Sun, silver to the Moon, lead to Saturn, tin to Jupiter, iron to Mars, copper to Venus and mercury to Mercury. The traditional colors offer thus references to aspects that the planets assign to metals.
What regards the symbolism of the days of the week: the Sun represents Sunday; the Moon Monday; Mars, Tuesday; Mercury, Wednesday; Jupiter, Thursday; Venus, Friday and Saturn, Saturday.
Similarly, the colors provide a correspondance between the Planets and the music tones. C belongs to Jupiter , D belongs to Mars, E belongs the Sun, F belongs to Venus, G belongs to Mercury, A belongs to the Moon and to B belongs to Saturn.
If one goes through the circular set up of the archéomètre, in the way shown in this illustration, constantly shifting between day and night respectively, between the daily and nightly domimicile of the planets . The arrangement takes a three-dimensional form with spiral-shaped bodies.
The Planisphere archéomètre , is divided into seven zones, which are to be read from the outside to the inside.
The first zone consists of two concentric circles, both containing numbers of degrees, turning in opposite directions, and placed in such a way that their sums are always 360 degrees.
The second zone contains letters - twelve morphologic letters, twelve arithmologic ones, the magic characteristics of characteristic numbers and the twelve colors.
The third zone is mobile. It contains the ring with the twelve summits of the equilateral triangles, each containing a planet, a letter from five different alphabets, a number and a color, as well as the colorless ring which holds the musical notes.
The fourth is fixed zone and consists of the symbols representing the twelve Signs of the Zodiak.
The fifth, again a mobile zone covers the indications concerning the planets.
The sixth zone hosts the twelve corners resulting from four equilateral triangles, lying on top of each other, twelve colors, four triangles, two hexagons.
In the seventh zone contains Mi, the central note of music, and/or its morphologic letter. There are also twelve white rays are and six diameters. "
edit: If I had 250$ spare I would consider purchaising a reprint of the original french book [wow I just see, they will translate it until 1/2008]  www.sacredscience.com

"Hey, nice find....! I hadn't found any of that... " It's my job to find (very specific) information The only problem was the french spelling. Then these were the first two google hits Ah yes, and there are better explanations of it in french on the net (I didn't dare to post a link..like this one for example http://rosamystica.oldiblog.com/?page=lastarticle&id=1610096 Even if one doesn't understand the language, one can hash a glimpse of the inherent complexity and enjoy the music ) 
It's a pleasure and I will look for a copy too. I privately studied all that for my self quite a while ago and it is very beautiful to see, that all these circles can be made into (sine-) waves, so you can really get a very good explanation of everything (existence<->nonexistence). Everything is cyclic = wave. Best example are our seasons, linked with the zodiac. I think, resonance-patterns define our reality. The bookcover of the german translation of William Grays 'ritual magic' has a similar but more modern picture (http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/images/344212221X/sr=8-3/qid=1194892194/ref=dp_image_0/302-9621258-9279258?ie=UTF8&n=299956&s=books&qid=1194892194&sr=8-3). I didn't find it on the internet, but I will scan it in work and send it.

*bump*
Just stumbled over here..
That is an astute observation. Here is what I found: The originator of the E8 concept, Wilhelm Karl Joseph Killing, was a contemporary of Saint-Yves d'Alveydre. The former was German, the latter French. So far I haven't been able to find any other formal link of the two, either through the concepts of Synarchy or Martinism.
This link will help answer some questions:

*bump* Hey there... it's been a while, eh?
Revisiting this structure again, and might have a clue. Based on modern systems theory, almost any complex system can be reduced to the interaction between a combination two-fold, three-fold, and seven-fold systems.
For example, in linguistics there are 42 potential vowel sounds formed through the combination of the following:
Lips rounded or wide Tongue forward, retracted, or neutral position Jaw open to one of seven positions
Now looking again at the Archaeometre, if it indeed encodes "all knowledge" then there should be some type of seven-fold structure. However it is not immediately apparent, which suggests that the written key that has been mentioned would of necessity reveal the seven-fold structure.
Even without the key itself, we can therefore hypothesize that it has a certain seven-fold structure that, when applied to the Archaeometre, reveals further knowledge.
Not sure where to go with this yet, but my first inclination is to overlay an enneagram over the archaeometre to see which symbols the lines pass through.
