Guiding Wisdom
Guardian angel, higher self, spirit guide, still small voice- all of these concepts share the idea that a higher plane of wisdom exists, accessible from our daily sphere, but also greater than our everyday self and able to help with wisdom outside of our normal consciousness.
Hermetic traditions, of which Alchemy is one, are full of [...]
Choices in Healing
When we first started this work, back in 1991, we made only a few Spagyrics, and had only a few customers.

Silene is native to the cape area of South Africa, and [...]
Join us in the Dreamtime
Urban Dreamscape and the Oneironauticum are fascinating projects connecting the dream experience with life in the waking world. Created by Jennifer Dumpert, Urban Dreamscape is a practice of exploring the dream world as a geographical landscape, and the physical landscape as a dreamspace geography.
Connected to this work, the Oneironauticums are gatherings of people dreaming together [...]
