Alchemy

November 28th 2026

10:00 - 16:00

Friends of Greenwood Gate Event

Alchemy centres around skills of transformation, and a deep understanding of the natural laws at work in and around us.

You are warmly welcomed to join us in a day of delving into the history and development of Alchemy, including the less well known work of female alchemists and alchemical symbolism.

We will explore diverse ideas of alchemical practice through the ages, which have involved both physical and spiritual alchemy, as well as psychological transformation, through presentations as well as experiential techniques such as mental alchemy.

Presented by Jeremy Tarling and Lynn Hodgkinson (both officers of AMORC's OAE jurisdiction).
