UPCOMING CLASSES
Class Description: Over the course of two immersive days, we’ll explore Alchemy as a living, ecological language and rooted science. One that speaks through the cycles of nature, the transformation of matter, the processes of our universe and the deep memory of plants. This is not merely science or tradition it is both: a way of seeing, a practice of relationship and a path of healing and herbalism.
At the center of our time together is the art of spagyrics — an ancient alchemical approach to herbal medicine that honors the full being of the plant: its body (minerals), soul (oils), and spirit (alcohol). Through this process, we create remedies that are more than extracts, they are vibrant, full-spectrum expressions of the plant’s wisdom.
Together we will delve into:
The spiritual and historical roots of Alchemy & Animism
Gaia Theory and the Earth as a self-regulating, animate being
Phytochemistry and plant intelligence through a spagyric lens
The Spagyric Process & Other Alchemical preparations
Astrological timing and planetary correspondence in medicine making
Participants will craft their own spagyric tincture throughout the weekend, and we’ll explore other classical preparations from the alchemical tradition—such as the Ens, Magistry, and Oil of Egg. Gaining hands-on experience and deeper insight into the mysteries of transformation.
This workshop blends theory with practice, myth with method, and science with spirit. You’ll leave with a deeper understanding of alchemy, practical medicine-making skills and a renewed sense of kinship with the more-than-human world.
Come ready to witness transformation within and without!
