The Alchemical Path Home

Foundational principles for the journey back to ourselves.

I am a multifaceted person, and I’m guessing you are too — which is why we need a multifaceted approach to our journeys back home to ourselves.

But wait — what is this journey back home? 

Our journey home is one of spiritual rewilding. We are meant to be wild and free at a soul level. To follow our own guidance, claim our sovereign nature, and remember how powerful we actually are. 

This isn’t so much about renouncing society and living in an off-grid abode (though if that’s where life takes you, rock on…I’m just a little jealous). It’s about shedding the layers of conditioning and domestication that make us forget the truth of who we really are. 

So, who are we?

We are powerful creators. We are love. We are divine.

But we aren’t totally in control of what happens in our lives, either (in case you haven’t noticed…).

We are all interconnected, and the intentions, thoughts, emotions, and energy that every person uploads into our collective impact us as a whole and as individuals. 

I don’t know about you, but I’m not down with a lot of what’s being uploaded into the collective unconscious (I mean, if I see one more apocalyptic movie in which women are still in more danger of being raped by men than eaten by zombies…not to mention the more mundane news feeds that teach us to fear our neighbors, fear economic collapse, and fear a pandemic).

We forget ourselves. 

With this onslaught of programming — some incidental, and some very intentional — we forget our divine nature. We learn fear our own power. We stop believing that change is possible. We give up a bit…on humanity, the world, even the goodness of life. 

(I use a lot of “we” language here…but could easily replace any of these with “I”. I’m no stranger to these shadows.)

My entire life has been a spiraling dance back home. It’s an ongoing journey of alchemical transformation and spiritual rewilding. It’s finding the light and crashing into the dark again and again. 

And it’s why I’m dedicated to supporting others on this path — the path to wholeness, empowerment, sovereignty, and worthiness. The path home to your wild and wise self. 

My Guiding Principles as an Alchemical Coach 

I’ll soon be opening spots for one-to-one work again, for both alchemical coaching and shamanic healing. I’ve been in communion with the spirits about this, getting very clear on the guiding principles that underlie these offerings. Here they are (so far, as they’ll likely evolve):

Vibration is core to your ability to come into alignment with your true self. 

Through my natural medium and channeling abilities, I transmit healing frequencies that bring you into deeper connection with spirit. 

I also work with the frequency of sacred aromatics and plant spirit medicine to offer energetic attunements that bring you into coherence.

Mythoanimism supports our greatest transformation and spiritual journeys home.

Mythoanimism is alchemy. It is partnership with earth, spirit, and cosmos. It illuminates the wild and wonderful way back to yourself. And it is the foundation of my offerings here at Alchemessence.

The wild Earth reflects our own wildness back to us.

Modern life encourages us to forget our worth and our power. We become domesticated in incidental and intentional ways. 

Spiritual rewilding brings us back into alignment with our true nature, and from here, we become the powerful creators we are meant to be.

Your sensitivity is a gift. 

Empathy is our natural way of being in the world, and you can absolutely learn to lean into your natural sensitivity and intuitive ways of knowing without overwhelming your system. 

You are not alone.

There are myriad beings who love you and want to support you in this life — benevolent ancestors, angels, deities, fae, spirit animals, and so many more. 

Our work deepens your relationship with your own personal spirit team, allowing you to find your own answers whenever you need them.

We embrace our fundamental spiritual nature while celebrating the wild ride of being in a human body. 

We were enticed into form with the promise of pleasure — and delighting the senses is a divine imperative. It catalyzes gratitude, love, and joy, which function as cosmic offerings of thanks.

And bodies can be challenging — no “myth of perfection”* here. Compassion and tending, especially in partnership with the plants, is key.

*Thank you to one of my guides, Joanna Lindenbaum for this gem of a phrase.

Spiritual sovereignty is your birthright.

Gone are the days when you needed a guru or priest to facilitate your connection with the divine. These times call for each of us to claim our individual spiritual gifts in service of the whole. Even in the face of modern-day censorship and persecution, the wise and wild are not to be tamed.

The Earth is evolving, and it is our role to both support her ascension and the collective evolution of humanity.

If you’re a sensitive soul, you feel this. And it can feel uncomfortable if you don’t know how to navigate these changes. Our work aligns your energy with that of the highest potential for our Earth, empowering you to be well and be of service in these wild times.

You belong here. And you are needed.

I believe that you are worthy of love exactly as you are — you don’t need to do anything to earn your existence. 

I believe that you are already whole and divine, even when you might feel broken. 

I believe that it is safe for you to embody your full power and speak your truth, even if it feels scary. 

And I believe that when you recognize these truths about yourself, the entire world will change.
