Bardon writes in Initiation into Hermetics that essentially everything is a fluid condenser in one respect or another. However, he goes on to write that certain substances are better attracters and stores of the two fluids than other substances, then going on to list a number of rather potent forms of fluid condensers and how to create them. Now, since a fluid condenser is essentially anything that attracts and contains the magnetic and/or electrical fluid, is it not safe to say that this extends to substances that are astral and mental in nature as well? Is a visualization a fluid condenser? A thought? A strongly felt emotion? If so, what would be the consequences of this? How would you work with an astral or mental fluid condenser? Wouldn't a thoughtform/elemental be a mental or astral fluid condenser? Just a few random thoughts and questions, brightest blessings. Peter Reist
