our first lesson on nigredo was released this week in alchemy 101, and we’re starting with the rawest of raw materials: our everyday triggers, our shadows, our “filth” as jung would put it.

since not all of us who were interested were able to join this year and enrollment is now closed, i thought it might be helpful to share some of the hacks we’re working on so you can save them and keep them in your own alchemical toolkit ✨

if you’re still very new to alchemy and aren’t sure what nigredo is or if you’re in it but you’re curious, i have a FREE alchemy gateway course at the link in my bio, where i explain the basics of the alchemical stages and help you figure out what stage you’re at, where you wanna go next, and how to do it, to work with your circumstances rather than struggle against them. it comes with a workbook and everything and will only take you 30-40 mins to get through 🫶🏼

esoteric, spiritual, and alchemical philosophy has been a love of mine since i was very young (like 6 years old, when the first harry potter book came out). i didn’t discover the arab alchemists until later, during my master’s, when i decided to pursue alchemical studies in more depth, and it really enriched my whole understanding of spirituality, magic, and colonial erasure (arab alchemists are rarely credited in the european literature, and when they are, their names are changed or several writers are lumped together as one).

i know many of us were interested in the alchemy program couldn’t join us this year for a variety of reasons, so i will make more carousels and videos about these topics if you’re interested, and that way you can follow along with us in a more casual way during your social media downtime 🫶🏼

also, have you been to the prague alchemie museum? i’ve never been, but prague has been on my travel list for a while.

it wasn’t easy creating this program while pregnant, nor while pregnant during a heatwave, nor while pregnant during a heatwave while our beautiful homeland falls apart and gets passed around in the hands of tyrants like a hot potato. but we did it. and in doing it we reminded ourselves that life, creativity, humanity continues to thrive, no matter how hard these systems try to break our spirits.

this program is my offering to the world, but it is also a love letter to our country, to the mountain that has always been there for us to find refuge and sanctuary. every lesson was filmed in a different spot in the mountain, with its gorgeous views and flowing rivers and ancient memory, a memory that has survived despite everything we and our ancestors have been through. i can’t wait to show you more of it, to film more things in more of its hidden paradises, and to one day invite you to physically experience its magic for yourself. it is truly one of the best kept secrets of the world 🫶🏼

you can thank our director for all the beautiful videography and finding us the perfect locations, for the gorgeous outfits and makeup despite all my objections and attempts to “keep things simple” (i.e. boring lol), for being the perfect assistant director, and my baby brother for being our one man production team, keeping us hydrated, driving us around, and making sure i was always smiling 🥹

love you guys 🫶🏼 and so excited for all the magic we’re going to make in the future 🪄

enrollment closes in less than 24 hours, so if you’ve been thinking of joining, now is the time ⏰

🚨ONLY 24 HRS BEFORE THE DOORS CLOSE🚨

from feeling reactive and stuck in old patterns to responding to life with discernment and integrity.

from trying to fit in with the “normal” to confident embodiment of the unique, unapologetic blueprint of your own self.

from being always confused by inner fragmentation and contradiction to holding the beautiful, messy paradox of who you are with humor, wholeness, and grace.

from feeling overwhelmed by world events to engaging with collective issues from a place of inner clarity and strength.

from being lost in the psychospiritual plateau to cruising on the infinite spiral of your own becoming.

these are some of the transformations you can expect to witness and experience when you undertake the work of alchemy.

enrollment closes sept 30 at midnight est, and our private server opens the next morning. i’m so excited to meet you and be part of your emergence 🫶🏼

this is truly a one of a kind journey and experience. you won’t find anything similar or adjacent. we bring together the worlds of the mind, body, and spirit in a totally new way every year, and the best part is that it is wholly yours, curated to you, designed to facilitate your emergence. from enhanced critical thinking to better listening skills to broader understanding to more groundedness and confidence to global awareness—no two people get the same thing out of these programs (and you can check the reviews highlights on my profile to see what i mean).

people have already been using the bonus material and engaging with the first round of exercises and telling me what an impact it’s had on their life—and we haven’t even started yet. see my stories for more ✨

did my best to make this video without using the words “colonial” or “capitalist” but what i’m talking about is a predominantly colonial approach to healing. not every therapeutic practice is like this, but a vast majority are because they’re geared towards prioritizing pathology and functionality in a world that quite frankly, if you have any heart, will likely depress you. one of the last therapists i spoke to about my struggle staying sane while people were being bombarded in ghazze (back in 2014) wrote off my concerns with “you might be on the spectrum”. not that there’s anything wrong with being on the spectrum, but you don’t need to be “on the spectrum” to not be ok with theft, mass violence, and manufactured suffering.

it was then, almost 12 years ago now, that i decided to pursue my masters in alchemy and jungian dream analysis (i had done an BA in literature and philosophy). i knew there had to be more than what these people were telling me. i had already been raised in a very spiritual household & knew about alchemy and the world “beyond the veil”, but the deep dive i was able to do during my MA program expanded me in so many unexpected ways, and i’ve only continued to expand & ground in my spiritual philosophy everyday since then.

after that, i decided to deepen my understanding of the injustice i had spent my whole life watching unfold, and pursued a PhD in Palestinian political identity, expanding my understanding even more about how it’s ALL connected—colonialism, mental health, economics, the spiritual world, religion, propaganda, mythology, and so much more.

if you resonate with any of this, if you have that yearning for justice and a life that isn’t designed to serve an insane world, if you know in your heart that there is a thread that runs through it all but you just can’t put your finger on it: let me help you. let me teach you what i spent years of study and experimentation figuring out, and let’s get you confidently grounded in a truth that is authentically yours, rather than trying to mould you to some oppressive idea of “normal”.

enrollment closes sept 30th, discord opens oct 1st, & if you have any questions, just email me 🫶🏼

spiritual psychosis happens when we have no grounding, no system or map to guide us through the storm of emotional and psychospiritual upheaval that comes with “peeking behind the veil”. i know because i’ve been there. i’ve been to the depths of my own chaos and back, have experimented with the magics and the demons and spoken to spirits and lost myself to philosophical unraveling so many times, despite having some of the best guides and mentors along the way.

this program is a distillation of my life’s journey in this world, 30 years of spiritual, alchemical, philosophical, and practical work fraught with mistakes, depression, dissociation, and numerous encounters with death itself.

at this point, i know what i’m talking about because I’ve done it, i’ve done it wrong and right and everything in between, so let me save you the time, heartache, and risk of reaching a point of no return by giving you the frameworks and understandings that have saved my life. i can’t tell you what the garden of your consciousness, your soul, will look like, or what fruits it will bear, but i can help you find the earth beneath your feet and and teach you how to tend the garden long after the program is over.

enrollment closes in 6 days, our private community server opens on october first, and the link is in my bio when you’re ready 🫶🏼

marie louise von franz’s book will be part of required reading in the live session portion of this year’s reading list. for the symbolists and seekers, it will open you up to new ways of reading ancient myths. von franz does a great job of approaching mythologies with fresh eyes and making connections between stories you didn’t know were related.

i will say though that her understanding of arabic alchemy is limited relative to her work on the greek and later european iterations of the practice. and that’s definitely a gap we fill in alchemy 101, from doing an indepth retranslation of the emerald tablet and its teachings, to drawing from the lesser known alchemical teachings of sufi masters.

enrollment is only open for a few more days and our private server opens next week so save your spot now and benefit from all the bonuses! i’m so excited you guys. this is truly going to be a such a special year, so i hope you decide to join us 🫶🏼

the buddy program is a huge part of this year’s journey, and i set it up this way for several reasons.

first because this work is HARD, more challenging than people think. many new students come in thinking they’re gunna do some meditation and stretches and have some talks about “enlightenment”, but then quickly realize there’s some real deep work to do, become overwhelmed, and give up. i do my best to read everyone’s work and am always watching, but i’m only one human, and some people slip through the cracks. everyone moves at their own pace, but having a designated partner creates an intimacy where you can be held accountable.

second, because in a hyperindividualized world, being part of community and doing collective work is difficult. while we are evolutionarily designed to be social, all the signs around us today point to separation, and that applies to the language of alchemical work and “self actualization” as well. it’s right there in the name: self. a partner creates multiplicity, twoness. it makes room for a back and forth outside your own head. your buddyship becomes your entryway into community. it’s the difference between going to a party alone and feeling overwhelmed by the crowd, or going to a party where you know someone who can introduce you to others.

and third because the essence of selfhood is witness. who am i without you to see me? there’s nothing more valuable in this world than being witnessed and witnessing another. don’t quantum particles even become more alive when they’re seen?

you’ll hear a lot about this program from me over the next few days, because there’s ONLY ONE WEEK LEFT to join. and if you’re someone dedicated to being a vessel for healing and expansion in this world, you don’t want to miss out. i’ve seen what these programs have done for people over the years (just check the highlight), and this one is going to be a year of unprecedented magic.✨

i have always been a fan of (most of) nietzsche’s work, especially as a teenager. his words offered me a lot of solace during a time when i felt misunderstood. growing out of that place, lately i started reading his ideas on morality alongside those of james baldwin, which is what this lesson is about.

while nietzsche makes the observation that inherited morality can limit individual growth, baldwin asks the question: beyond the individual, what violences are done by moral purities that are cultivated in “innocent” ignorance? what does moral insulation do to our shared histories? how do we build & continue to reinforce oppressive systems in our day to day commitment to “being good”?

the program this year is full of discussions, exercises, and texts like this that will slowly chip away at your convictions, all the programming that has kept you small, and the dogma designed to harvest your spirit bit by bit.

bc like the war in gaza, the spiritual war is not a war, it’s a genocidal attack against your spirit: i.e. your mind, your critical reasoning and compassion, your capacity to gently hold the nuances of life with curiosity as you parse things out, looking for solutions. powers compete with each other over your attention, time, and money, and it is up to us today, individually & together, to guard our life force, and hone and harness it towards creating a fairer, more just world.

the whole program is geared towards this weaving of work, going inward and outward, opening you up little by little, bringing you back to confidence, compassion, and grounded, connected authenticity.

earlybird enrollment is open for the next 5 days & spots are almost gone (i told the email people before you, so if you wanna know about fun things first in the future, make sure you subscribe to my website mailing list).

AND you can use the code EARLYWORM for an extra discount (because why shouldn’t the early worm also get something?).

there’s a lot more info on the course landing page (link in bio) and a couple longer videos there you can watch breaking it all down, so check that out if you’re interested ✨

hope you had a beautiful weekend 🫶🏼
