Metzner Alchemical Divination - Next Weekend Workshop
The Six Life-Paths of the Human Soul and the Imprints of Conception

Each one of us, as a human soul, incarnates by choice with a purpose, mission or vision for this life - "what we came here to do or to be." In this workshop you learn how to identify your soul's vision and how to realize its expression in your own work, your family relations, your community and your world.

Metzner Alchemical Divination - Next 5-Day Training
Janus and the Gateway of the Heart

Janus is the deity of doorways and passages. In this workshop, you learn divinations to identify your inner direction and the life-paths of your soul; to connect more deeply with your ancestors; and to release blocks to receiving and expressing creative energy.

NEW! A divination on The Six Life-paths of the Human Soul has now been added to the Janus workshop. If you have already completed the Janus workshop you can sign up for the new version at the discounted tuition rate of $500.

It is highly recommended that you obtain and read Ralph's book, Alchemical Divination as preparation and background for the MAD workshops.

The book, Mind Space and Time Stream -- Understanding and Navigating your States of Consciousness, is also recommended.

An enchanted treasure chest, overflowing with insightful new dialogues, fascinating anecdotes, valuable historical accounts and other never-before-published material about the origins of modern psychedelic culture, by the people who helped to create it. Difficult to put down, this exciting book enriched my understanding of how Harvard's legendary psychedelic research team turned on the world. --DAVID JAY BROWN Co-author Conversations on the Edge of the Apocalypse and Mavericks of Medicine
 
Ram Dass, Timothy Leary and Ralph Metzner dedicated their knowledge, passion and physical lives to a detailed study of human physio-psychology-spirit. This book shows how their rigorous use of scientific method, combined with courageous personal experience astounded and educated millions. --JOHN ALLEN Pioneer of Biosphere Science; Chairman, Global Ecotechnics


For anyone interested in the history of the psychedelic movement, the psychology, the characters and the culture of the Harvard branch, this book is invaluable. Forty to fifty years have passed since the events described took place and yet there is an unsettling freshness about the problems that the individuals and the culture faced, which resonate right down to the modern day. Yet, all the while reading, one also senses the warmth that those involved still have in their memories and which flower gracefully throughout the text. Highly recommended. --Psychedelic Press, UK
