In this episode, I am joined by Ben Balderson from Odin's Alchemy. Ben discusses the process of alchemy and its practical applications, the importance of ancestral wisdom, the incorporation of different components of alchemy, the concept of the Logos, and the missing pieces of the puzzle known by the Gnostics. Ben walks us through his modern alchemical lab as we also get into the philosophical aspect of alchemy and the importance of hands-on experience in the lab. Ben also dives into the observation and daydreaming involved in the alchemical work.We finished up with his thoughts on the transmutation of society and the extraction of the spirit from it. Perhaps this is why alcohol is such a big part of our culture...Check out Ben at https://www.youtube.com/@BenjaminBaldersonCheck out the video https://youtu.be/O8k7RVmHOiMCall into the show and leave a message at (407)476-4606Patreon exclusive, ad-free content, and early access: https://www.patreon.com/thejuanonjuanpodcastAll new Homunculus Owner's Manual available at https://ko-fi.com/s/1dd0be3b69Get your subscription for Paranormality Magazine!
