Alchemy was about turning lead into gold, right? Well, at least that’s what they told us. It is an analogy about transmuting something less desirable into something more desirable. Alchemy was a precursor to science and also a spiritual practice. So why didn’t they teach you that? It was because people forgot. They forgot who they really are. They didn’t mislead you, they simply forgot. Now, where else has this shown up in your life? What have people forgotten? And for those of us who think they should be teaching something, look within. What part of you was unwilling to see and forgive their mistakes rather than point out the flaws in the system? Wanna make change? Forgive.
