Spiritual Alchemy

Transforming lead into gold? The ancient arts of alchemy are so much more than that: they help us transform our spiritual “lead” into the “gold” of our higher selves, to become the Solar Child, the Sacred Marriage within, the Philosopher’s Stone, the Crowned One, the Soma Heliakon, the Phoenix! Join us for this four-week adventure to explore the history, language, and symbolism of alchemy, the paths of personal purification and refinement, the tools to create your own Alchemist’s Laboratory, and the practices to incorporate alchemy into your daily life. Bonus: a visual tour of the Alchemy Museum in Slovenia.
