The Alchemy Oracle is a divination tool based upon my book The Alchemy of Possibility, an experiential guide for creative inspiration and personal growth. Each chapter includes my artwork—an archetypal painting or drawing—paired with my prose and poetry, and with an I Ching hexagram or tarot card which also resonates with the theme of the chapter.

Today we consult The Alchemy Oracle with the question, “What is the spiritual message for the collective this week?” Here is the answer:


Blame

Painting: Dark Profile

What is blame except being lame; it is our self-violation projected onto another. Blame stems from an intolerance of our own limits. How much of our interaction is projective, illusory? Let us juggle our power from balance, not bias.

More about The Alchemy Oracle

When ‘The Alchemy of Possibility’ was first published, I gave numerous readings around the country. At the end of each, I invited people to take the book in their hands, allow a question to arise, and then open the book at random. Remarkably, each time this happened, the participants were amazed at the resonance, relevance, and illumination they found. With the technology now available, this oracle opportunity is re-created here online. Read more.

The Isolation Grip

Painting: Glaciers of Antarctica

Isolation may originate from being divided against oneself. In this cold division within, we are torn from our roots as if exiled from our own country. We feel alone, even in a crowd, because we have lost our integration, our innate power. If we attempt to heal the split by following our restless desires, we pave a futile path. Lament is unanswered by worldly seductions. Would I betray my soul in the ache of loneliness, thus rewounding the origin of my pain? Read more. Read More.

Today we consult The Alchemy Oracle with the question, “What is the spiritual message for the collective this week?” Here is the answer:

Ambivalence/Immobility  

Painting: Yes or No

Perhaps most of our problems stem from limited perceptions. When we are ambivalent, doubtful, the issues we are struggling with may be metaphors for other underlying dynamics. It may be a time to observe without further entanglement, rather than to respond. Indecisiveness may be appropriate as a place of suspension, while we await the answers of cosmic time. Ambivalence may be requesting that we live our answers.    Read More.

Mortality / Immortality

Painting: Dead Tree at Pankosmion*

As immortal beings, we are eternal gardens, reborn in myriad form. Consider the progression of the rose’s bud to its full-petalled blossom; its fading fruits the seed of tomorrow. My philosophy mirrors the flower’s life. I identify with Nature’s mysteries rather than with the fear that feeds the predatorial approach toward aging. Read More…

Today we consult The Alchemy Oracle with the question, “What is the spiritual message for the collective this week?” Here is the answer:


Holographic Health

Painting: Haven at Julia’s

Philosopher Alfred North Whitehead speaks about life appearing as a compilation of fragmentary experiences. Our lives truly consist of innumerable neuronic interconnections. We are who we are because of what we are— biologically, spiritually, mentally and emotionally.

By understanding our multidimensionality we better understand our health. Although we are captives of our genetic seed, our biology and consciousness are one and we may “trimtab” toward our highest potential. Read More.

Atoms Mirror Atoms

Painting:  Parroting Oneself

When we contemplate the number of atoms in existence, we begin to glimpse the scope of life’s mathematical equations. With the emergence of each atom, another possibility for diversification is born, and with diversification comes mutation, evolution’s promise. Read More.

Building Realities

Painting: The Building of Realities

As I gaze from the mountain lake high above the seas, into the mists, the unexplored skies, I see into life. I peer into its fundamental meanings, into my own, into how we virtualize reality. Suddenly, life appears as a series of projected images created by my mind, orchestrated by passion—an endless reel of universal forces mirrored in others, in myself, in the world.  Read more.

THE RELATIVITY OF REALITY

Painting: Café Van Gogh

As said in the Talmud, “Things are not the way they are; they are the way we are.”

Depending on our vantage point, on our capacity for comprehensive perception, we experience numerous truths, interpretations of reality. With every event, there is a diversity of experience and perception; what is truth for one is not necessarily truth for another. When we carefully examine the truth of what we perceive, we may discover that it does not endure. The essence may be in what we can not see rather than in our interpretation of its appearance. Underlying the stories we tell, is the autonomy of Nature’s laws. Read more.

Today we consult The Alchemy Oracle with the question: “What is the spiritual message for the collective this week?” Here is the answer:


SYNCHRONICITY

Painting: After Chagall

Nature, its ever re-alchemizing stable of forces, doesn’t bother with our simulations of belief, rationality and the rest of our strivings to grasp The Mystery. Meaning is to be found in the subtle, refined textures of Nature’s language, in synchronicity, in the random events that change our lives. If we recognize that we are forces of Nature, guided by our self-knowledge, our comprehension of the Higher Order, we will be led by an ever-expanding consciousness, simultaneously personal and universal.

Trusting the Tao

Painting: The Path

Why toil with concepts when the worthwhile occurs from a more discreet design? I let my will go as a stream, yielding to life’s rocks, allowing the natural order to take its course, moving only when it feels right. I offer my visions to Providence, where all things are decoded according to the Grand Intelligence. To try to control life subverts its flow. Nature thrives from the greater urge of evolution, to which I yield.  Read more.

In the gradual process of enlightenment, theories, philosophies, belief systems may guide us, another’s words may validate, but only our own experience will dawn the light of our inward sun, illuminating our unique path to the paradise within. Read more.

The Pageantry of Existence

Painting: Cosmic Cartoon

Our lives are movies in which we seriously believe the roles we play. This great theater of diverse characters is an outrageous pageantry of endless absurdities.When we perceive reality from the Overview, we see the humor, the irony of this outlandish theater we inhabit. When we are misled by ego, prejudice, belief systems or any fanaticism, seriousness can be dangerous. Wisdom gives us a glimpse between the seams, beyond the facade of appearance.  Read More.

Editing, Sifting, Refining

Tending the Inner Garden

Painting: Astral Gardens

In listening to our souls, we cultivate ourselves, the Earth. Without our inward, soul-trodden path, our gardens are desert isles, isolated from the vast streams of other spirits, alien unto ourselves. Our flowers, fruit trees and plants remain barren without love, the fertilizer of infinity. Read more.

Embracing Change

Painting: The Tree Face of Metamorphosis

The I Change* asks for the faith, the courage to live constantly in the unfamiliar, to ride the waves beyond self-ego, as in my painting, Riding the Quantum Wave. Self is a localized illusion. We are temporal representatives of a universal principle. Our “core” is our essential nature: the unconditioned in dialogue with the ever-constant. Read more.

Utopian Visions  

Painting: Dream of the Auburn Hair  

We have reached a time and place in our history where progress is possible only if the human species is willing to change. For life to go on, the planet must move to a higher state of integration and refinement. We need to scrutinize our thinking and eliminate the alibis of blame and excuse. In our humanness lies the capacity for all that exists. May we stoke those fires into brilliance that illuminates revelations of enlightened meaning. As The I Ching states, “Greatness and justice must be united indissolubly.”  Read More.
