DESCRIPTION
A look into Alchemy and how it applies to your spiritual growthTRANSCRIPT

Alchemy often brings to mind the image of an
elderly gentleman bent over scrolls or a work
station; this is the romanticized image that was
spread during the infancy of alchemy.
Alchemy was the marriage of chemistry and
esoteric idea’s, since its mysterious birth there
have been many schools of thought on just
what alchemy is.
Some believe that the alchemists of old truly
only worked to turn lead into gold. Others
believe that this was a “front” for these
individuals to explore spiritual growth without
reprimand from the Church. Since those days
alchemy has continued to be and there are
many routes one can take with it.
The mystery of alchemy is its greatest asset, it
drives one to explore, to look deeper and to
continue further and further seeking the truth.
Alchemy is truly a great model of spiritual
growth!

Alchemy is a process, one that is occurring
constantly within us. As you learn about each of
the steps, think back over life and those big
moments/experiences. Think about the process and
how your felt as you went through the experience,
how it changed you.
Alchemy is a constantly moving process, it is a
circle and so the steps can occur at the same time.
Also know that as you go through a transformative
process, it is just the beginning of another cycle.
We often do not end with a pure conjunction at the
end, this is because Ego is difficult to completely
silence.
Ego is part of our human experience; it is also our
greatest challenge. Each cycle of transmutation
takes us closer and closer! Awareness of the cycle
will help you to appreciate all that you have
accomplished!
Orobouris- the snake who swallows his tail
is a common alchemy symbol.. It represents
the steps of birth, life, death, rebirth and the
continuous cycle therein. It represents you
as an alchemical vessel, with the stages of
alchemy continuously cycling within you.

Calcination: the fire that sparks the change.
Creating the ash from which growth will
develop from. Think back to a time when life
seemed to just disintegrate before your eyes,
that was calcinations. These are humbling
experiences.
Dissolution: purification through water. This is
where the ash is placed in water and is further
dissolved, removing ego from the
consciousness. **often calcinations and
dissolution occur at the same time
Separation: isolation of the essences of self, at
this time there is an experience of opposites
occupying one space.
Conjunction: the bringing together of the
separate essences to try and form a united
essence that is balanced. At this stage the
essence of Self is being rebirthed
Fermentation: when conjunctions occur they
are often not complete and strong.
Fermentation occurs in 2 steps, putrefaction of
the incomplete essence and then fermentation.
This is another breakdown, sparked by spiritual
awareness and desire to continue to grow.
Distillation: a point at which a finer
purification occurs, ensuring that ego is
completely removed from the union with High
Self. If ego is still here, the cycle may pause
here then return to calcination.
Coagulation: the marriage of your essence to
your Higher Self. At this point, the
transformation is complete. A sense of
wellbeing, balance and harmony will fill you.
***this cycle never ends, we are always
moving into higher and higher vibrations. Like
Orobious the cycles never end!
Transmutation and transformation are never ending, there are periods of peace and a
time to enjoy your hard work until the cycle returns again!.
