Oh, this is appropriate…

Re-reading Thom F. Cavalli’s Alchemical Psychology and I came across a perfect quote that I could have mentioned in my previous entry. This quote was taken from historian Cherry Gilchrist’s work Alchemy (I THINK I own this one too, not sure) where she says:
Mainstream alchemy is a discipline involving physical, psychological and spiritual work, and if any one of these elements is taken out of context and said to represent the alchemical tradition, then the wholeness and true quality of alchemy is lost.
Speaking of Dr. Cavalli, I think he’ll be one of the speakers at The International Alchemy Conference. Actually, he is, and the list of speakers can be found here. With any luck, I might actually make it, dirt-fucking-poor that I am.
I’d post something of more substance, but I’m worn out after work. I think I might just pass out in my book.
