The Amazing Coincidences Between Two Famous Works

The Steganographick Collection is a very interesting document in itself. But also the other famous works called The Hypnertomachia Poliphilia and the later published Chemical Wedding are particularly fascinating.
At the most important and significant thrilling moment of the both works – Chemical Wedding and Stenographic Collection is the chain of the strange and amazing coincidences which could not be just accidental. These similarities are:
-in both works the main characters are disjointed with the companions and take a travel with the page (Nephes) as an escort.
-in the CW the alter with the ever combustion tree is fed by own fruit; in the SC the tree is fed by its own branches.
-in the CW there is a symbol of love – Venus and in the SC there is also symbol of - the hope of Olocliree.
-it is obvious that the authors of the both works – CW, edited in France in 1600 and SC, published in 1616 in Germany, had used the same mythology in the works. The both works are related to the alchemy, but no other alchemical works except of these contain the same symbols and myths. The question is how could the two different authors to invent and to use the same elements. The period of time between the publications is sixteen years and it can cause the supposition that the authors had common friends or met with each other or were a members of the same ritual group and there developed the same approaches and the views on similar events. But may be the authors had some other connection or obviously the author is the same person.
The one more thing must be mentioned that the main mythology of the Chemical Wedding was published in Paris 16 years previously. But all mentioned facts help only to create the suppositions, because the explanations of the amazing coincidence was not still founded.
