Welcome to the Swedish Alchemical Academy!
The Alchemical Academy invites you to take part in the alchemical wisdom tradition in an inspiring and instructive context. Albeit most of our events take place in Sweden, we also lecture and hold workshops abroad. Our magnum opus Alchemy – the divine work has been translated into English. In 656 pages, we go through the history, philosophy and internal practice of alchemy.
We offer individuals and groups the possibility to, with the help of alchemy’s archetypical language, work towards a higher level of meaning and self-knowledge. In this way, alchemy can be a method towards insight, freedom, and wholeness, in which matter, soul, and spirit seek to unite through the alchemical marriage.
At its root, alchemy is about refining its material—often humanity itself—to its full potential. The symbol for this completion is the Stone of the Wise. Alchemical work includes studies, prayer, meditation, plant and mineral laboratory work, energy exercises, and, above all else, the practice of the art of love.
In addition, for those who would like to deepen their alchemical knowledge, we offer alchemical courses, consultations, organized study trips, elixirs, and literature, soon also in English!
We have organised sacred journeys across Europe since 2007 (for example, France: Paris & Chartres, Montségur and the Cathar Castles, Rennes-le-Chateau, Rennes-les-Baines, Carcassonne, Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, Toulouse, etc.; Malta; Portugal; England: the Grail tradition; Sweden). Soon, such sacred journeys will also be offered in English!
More information on this can be found on the Academy’s website.
