american alchemy pt 3: denouncing witchcraft while embracing the occult

In this final episode of our American Alchemy series, we explore the term 'The Christian Alchemists' coined by Walter Woodward, encompassing a diverse group of practitioners with varying religious affiliations. A key figure among them was Gershom Bulkeley, an alchemist, pastor, and physician from Massachusetts. Despite his skepticism towards astrology, Bulkeley was deeply involved in Paracelsian medicine, compiling an extensive library of alchemical works and passing on his knowledge to his children.


The episode delves into the lesser-known alchemists of the 17th century New England, including Robert Childe, Elias Ashmole, and others who straddled various fields from alchemy and Rosicrucianism to astronomy and medicine. Their complex beliefs and practices reveal the multifaceted nature of the intellectual landscape in early American colonies.


We also examine the alchemical practices of individuals like Thomas Vaughan, who, despite his religious leanings, immersed himself in mysticism and alchemical studies. His deeply personal and tragic narrative with his wife Rebecca illustrates the intertwining of love, loss, and the pursuit of esoteric knowledge.


The story of John Jacob Zimmerman and his successor Johannes Kelpius sheds light on the Society of the Woman in the Wilderness and the Ephrata Cloister, communities devoted to astrology, sacred music, and esoteric Christianity. Their unique practices and beliefs represent an offshoot of the Rosicrucian movement in America.


The episode concludes with a reflection on the waning influence of alchemy as a cultural force in the colonies by the 18th century, giving way to more orthodox forms of Christianity. However, the alchemical and astrological roots of early colonial America left an indelible mark on American cultural identity, showcasing the nation's ongoing fascination with transformation, both spiritual and material.


This narrative of American Alchemy, blending science, mysticism, and spirituality, highlights the complex and often contradictory foundations of early American society and its enduring legacy.

american alchemy pt 2: witch hunts and the invisible college

In this second episode of our three-part American Alchemy series, the focus shifts to John Winthrop Jr. and the culmination of his alchemical endeavors in New London. Acting as the eyes and ears of the Royal Society of London, Winthrop sought homegrown talent for his alchemical project, becoming a central figure in the American colonies' intellectual landscape. He enlisted the help of local alchemists, including George Starkey and others associated with Harvard or arriving from England and Bermuda.


Winthrop's alchemical pursuits extended beyond experimentation to creating a medical center in New London, where he treated patients from across the colonies and Europe. His medicines, often based on antimony and nitre, gained popularity, and Winthrop organized a network of female healers to distribute them. Despite his success, Winthrop contemplated closing or moving New London in 1650 but ultimately expanded the project, and by 1657, he became the governor of Connecticut.


Connecticut, initially a Puritan colony, faced changes with the restoration of the monarchy. Winthrop's father-in-law, Charles II, posed a potential threat, and Winthrop sailed to England in 1661. His absence marked the onset of a witch-hunt in Connecticut, reflecting the challenges and tensions within Puritan culture. Winthrop's diplomatic skills were instrumental in negotiating with the English crown and ensuring a degree of autonomy for Connecticut.


The episode delves into the interconnected lives of alchemists within Winthrop's circle, such as Robert Childe, Elias Ashmole, and Gershom Bulkeley. Their pursuits ranged from alchemy and Rosicrucianism to astronomy and medicine. The text emphasizes the complexities of their beliefs and practices, showcasing a diverse group bound by a shared interest in the esoteric.

As Connecticut faced political changes, Winthrop's role evolved, and he navigated the shifting dynamics while continuing his alchemical experiments.


The episode concludes with Winthrop's legacy, contemplating the end of an era as New England faced challenges that would pave the way for the establishment of the United States of America. The narrative highlights the intertwining of alchemy, politics, and cultural shifts in the development of the American colonies.

american alchemy pt1: huguenots, hermetics, and the new world

In the first part of this three-part series, join me on a fascinating exploration of America's hidden history, delving into the convergence of alchemy, mysticism, and early scientific endeavors that shaped the nation's intellectual landscape. Our journey begins with the surprising influence of Puritan alchemists in the founding of America, unraveling a tapestry woven with extraordinary characters, daring experiments, and unlikely friendships. The alchemical community, connected across continents and oceans, played a pivotal role in shaping a cosmopolitan movement for cultural evolution.


As we navigate through the annals of history, we encounter the ambivalent relationship of American colonists with traditional Christian congregations, revealing a religious landscape rich with occult and magical practices. The Huguenots, refugees of war, brought with them Paracelsian medicine and alchemical pursuits to the New World, influencing the cultural melting pot and leaving an indelible mark on American Protestantism.


The episode unfolds with a deep dive into the aftermath of the Rosicrucian movement in Europe and its migration to America, where secret societies and alchemists sought refuge from the turmoil of war. Visionaries like Francis Bacon and John Winthrop emerge as key figures, their alchemical knowledge influencing the establishment of colonies, iron foundries, and even the foundations of the Royal Society. The narrative takes unexpected turns as it explores the intertwining of rational thinking and the prevailing fear of imminent doom, culminating in the hope that contributions to knowledge would bring humanity closer to a prophesied Second Coming. Join us as we unravel the mystical threads that weave through the foundations of America, uncovering the alchemical secrets hidden in its history.

the occult fascinations of poet william butler yeats

If the paramount project of W.B. Yeats? professional life was the perfection of the art of poetry, it was intertwined with a personal preoccupation, the study and practice of magic?not in any metaphorical sense, but the dedicated pursuit of supernatural powers based upon the ancient traditions of alchemy and necromancy, which began in his youth and persisted to the end of his long life.

using self-remembering to awaken from the dream of life

Self-remembering" is an esoteric practice focused on cultivating heightened self-awareness. Practitioners observe their thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations without judgment, fostering mindfulness in the present moment. This technique encourages detachment from ego-driven tendencies and the pursuit of a deeper, authentic self. It serves as a valuable tool on the path to personal awakening and self-realization. By consistently applying self-remembering, individuals aim to transcend their conditioned consciousness and move towards enlightenment. Unlike mantra meditation, the method of self-remembering - also known as "atma vichara "or "self-abidence" -  is very simple, completely effortless and can become continuous throughout all activities.

the value of psychotic experience (1960 alan watts lecture)

In his 1960 lecture "The Value of Psychotic Experience," Alan Watts delved into the realm of altered consciousness. With a mesmerizing blend of insight and empathy, Watts explored how unconventional states of mind, often deemed 'psychotic,' could unveil profound insights into the nature of reality and human perception. He gently guided listeners through a journey of understanding, suggesting that these experiences, though challenging, might offer glimpses of a deeper connection between the mystical and the mind. Watts' words illuminate the hidden wisdom that can arise from the most mysterious corners of our psyche.


Alan Watts (1915?1973) was a captivating British-American philosopher, writer, and speaker. Renowned for his unique ability to distill Eastern philosophy and mysticism for Western audiences, he explored profound concepts about the nature of reality, consciousness, and the interconnectedness of all things. With a soothing voice and insightful perspective, Watts continues to inspire listeners with his timeless wisdom and thought-provoking musings on existence, making him a luminary in the world of mystical philosophy.

what we lost when we stopped reading

We all know about our declining attention spans due to social media. That?s nothing new. However, we?re beginning to see the profound impact of digital technology on something called ?deep reading?, critical thinking, and societal discourse at large.


Together, we?ll delve into an article that examines the transformation of reading habits, exploring the concept of "deep literacy" as a cognitive process that nurtures abstract thought, empathy, and creativity. Through our exploration, you?ll better understand the historical significance of deep literacy's role in shaping modernity and individual agency, and how the rise of digital devices challenges this essential cognitive skill.


From the addictive nature of technology to the erosion of attention spans, we reflect on the consequences for personal reflection, creativity, and empathy. Join me on a journey through the evolution of reading and its implications for our capacity to engage deeply with ideas and one another.

the mysterious hierarchy of adepts

There is a strange and persistent legend that probably originates in the East. It proposes that in some hidden locations on the earth (generally the highlands of Central Asia, particularly Tibet, although other sites, such as the Andes and even some mountains in the U.S., such as the Grand Tetons and Mt. Shasta, are mentioned at times), there exists a group of persons who possess both exceptional powers and a highly perfected character and consciousness. They are known variously as the Hierarchy of Adepts, the Great White Lodge, the Great White Brotherhood, the Masters, or simply the Hierarchy.

masters of the ageless wisdom

The Masters of Wisdom are reputed to be enlightened beings identified by the Theosophists Helena Blavatsky, Henry S. Olcott, Alfred Percy Sinnett, and others. These Theosophists claimed to have met some of the so-called Masters during their lifetimes in different parts of the world. Sometimes they are referred to by Theosophists as Elder Brothers of the Human Race, Adepts, Mahatmas, or simply as The Masters.


K. Paul Johnson suggests in his book The Masters Revealed: Madame Blavatsky and Myth of the Great White Lodge that the Masters that Madame Blavatsky claimed she had personally met are idealizations of certain people she had met during her lifetime. We may never know the truth about the Mahatmas Blavatsky claimed to have met. However, we cannot deny the power held by some of the most prominent spiritual figures in history and the threads of ancient wisdom they've weaved for us all to follow.

In this enchanting episode, we delve deep into the captivating realm of the Roman Catholic Church and its adept utilization of the arcane art of propaganda. Witness how the Church, with its fervent desire to suppress alternative avenues of mysticism and spirituality, wove intricate webs of deceit and manipulation. Unveiling the secrets of this clandestine operation, we unravel the plight of the brave souls known as "Heretics," with a particular focus on the enigmatic Cathars. These innocent seekers of divine wisdom faced grave accusations, unfounded and devoid of truth.


Together, let us traverse the labyrinthine corridors of time and uncover the triumphs of the Catholic Church's crusades against perceived incongruous beliefs and behaviors. At the forefront of this spiritual battleground, we encounter the mysterious order of Priests known as the Dominicans. Bound by their allegiance to the Church, they ruthlessly subdued the followers of ancient Christianity, bending them to the Church's will. Yet, the echoes of this historical saga still reverberate in the corridors of our collective consciousness. Peer into the depths of our minds and witness how the seeds of Catholic Church propaganda continue to take root, fostering a pernicious phenomenon known as toxic shame.


Come, dear listener, as we traverse the ethereal tapestry of time, exploring the mystical underpinnings of our shared history. Discover the veiled truths and hidden wisdom that lie dormant within, awaiting the awakening of your curious soul.
