Alchemical Life is a home on the web dedicated to the magic of the ordinary - learning, growing, transforming the lesser refined aspects of being into a diamond-like brilliancy-whoever we are, wherever we are, whatever path or no path we follow. An everyday mantra of "to live is to love is to live is to love..." will carry us through what can be agonizing, but also ecstatic days with pendulum-like swings as we try to figure it out. What is it all about? It is in the ordinary, in our own backyards, that we can find the magic leading us to beauty and harmony, goodness and truth - the food for our healing and our wholeness. I'd like to share my backyard with you.
Thus Alchemical Life is also where I showcase the fruits of my backyard. Welcome. Some things are still growing; others, such as sessions in Jin Shin Do (R) Bodymind Acupressure (R) are ready for harvest. I look forward to sharing those with you.The rest will be here as they are ready. This is one method in my alchemical process - taking time to be with each creation as it unfolds - writing, knitting, photography, tarot, astrology - all expressions of joy for me.
I would love to hear from you - your thoughts and ideas, dreams and ambitions, concerns and challenges. As I listen to the stories of others, explore writings, past and present, over centuries, I am always intrigued by the fact that as human beings we seem to ask the same questions time and again, and experience the same feelings, hopes, despairs, wonderments - across time, across cultures, across geography - I think it is one of the things that convinces me there is a great plan, and a Greater Being. You can reach me at...

p.s. I think you'll get the idea that I have a thing for flowers in particular, and the natural world in general.
