INSIGHT

Life As The Alchemist's Laboratory

  • Spiritual alchemy prioritizes raising the vibration of life experiences to nourish the soul rather than pursuing material transmutation alone.
  • Spiritual alchemists treat waking life as the laboratory and aim to separate inner metal from the dross of appearances.
INSIGHT

Metal Versus Dross In Experience

  • Every experience contains a real metal (nourishment for the soul) and dross (distraction/appearance).
  • The alchemist's task is to identify and collect the metal while discarding the dross before calcination burns it away.
ADVICE

Use Archetypes To Mine Experiences

  • Study the seven metals and planetary archetypes to recognize soul-nourishing patterns in your life.
  • Use those correspondences to intentionally mine and transmute experiences into spiritual currency.
