Welcome to Alchemical Life, a home on the web dedicated to the magic of the ordinary - learning, growing, transforming the lesser refined aspects of being into a diamond-like brilliancy - whoever we are, wherever we are, whatever path or no path we follow. An everyday mantra of ''to live is to love is to live is to love...'' will carry us through what can be agonizing, but also ecstatic days with pendulum-like swings as we try to figure it out. What is it all about? It is in the ordinary, in our own backyards, that we can find the magic leading us to beauty and harmony, goodness and truth - the food for our healing and our wholeness.
