Beautiful guide.Thank you!! it was easy to follow.

Loved it. book is full of knowledge I was seeking. Beautiful Guide for a starter. Thank you!!!

Clear and concise introduction to Alchemy

Great narration!

Clear and concise introduction to Alchemy with lots of references to other resources to learn more within each aspect presented.

Great book,but little follow up information

The book was a compelling introduction to a subject which, had it not been a part of a recognized series of legitimate titles might well have been overlooked by the reader as "New Age". However, other than some subtle name dropping in the earlier portion of the book, there isn't any " further reading " section or suggestions for where the curious can go to learn more or get more involved.

Explained so clearly!!

The book was so good I had to purchase the hard copy!! If you’re just arriving to your Alchemy experience, this book will help start you off tremendously!

Enlightening!

I’m so grateful for this book as I am new to the world of alchemy, it’s a must read for those who are interested in alchemy.

A warm campfire fueled from different times and places.

Brings it all (literally) together in a concise easy to understand package if physics and the ether is in your purview.

Grateful

Excellent ♡ for students in alchemy, new or adept this book is a wonderful addition. The author is thorough and explains what you need to know and more. The correspondences and steps etc. Makes for a great reference book, as well as gives references to where to go for further research.
In short I'm grateful for a complete genuine alchemy book.

Can’t get enough

DWH is a blessing. Makes me want to write a paper on each book he writes.

Very easy to understand.

Enjoyed this book very much. Very easy to follow and one you can revisit time and again.

GREAT source of info for everyone.

If you are even remotely interested in understanding alchemy and its principles, this is your best starting place.
