How do you turn the pain of life into spiritual gold?  How do you find new meaning and purpose when everything falls apart? We will explore the richly rewarding field of alchemy, a topic that has captivated, inspired and illuminated the life and works of thinkers as diverse as Thomas Aquinas,  Sir Isaac Newton, Carl Jung and James Hillman and informs masterpieces from  Renaissance art to Mozart's Magic Flute and The Wizard of Oz


January 13: Ancient Egypt and Alchemy: Maria Prophetissa, Philip Glass's opera Ahknaten and Mozart's Magic Flute
​
January 20: Jung , the Anima and the Shadow: Les Miserables and Wicked

January 27: Wisdom Hidden in Plain Sight Harry Potter and The Wizard of Oz
