Alchemy Study Program

The Alchemy Study Program was created in 1996 by Dennis William Hauck and is the oldest continuing education program of its kind. We now have over 600 students in 11 countries, and our faculty is composed of recognized leaders in their fields. We are serious in our efforts to provide clear and unbiased teachings based on the principles of traditional alchemy.

The path in this program is part of the world's oldest spiritual tradition, a way of living in accord with the basic pattern of the universe that can result in magical transformations within your own life. These teachings date back beyond our contemporary civilization and are presented in their purest form, free from any organizational doctrine, religious dogma, or personal ego that may have corrupted them over the years.

Similarly, on your part, you will have to give up habitual thinking patterns and predetermined assumptions that are part of the culture in which you grew up. You can get around that wall of social programming, if you learn to judge this material (and everything else in your life, for that matter) by how well it resonates with your own deepest intuition, that part of you that Egyptian alchemists called "Intelligence of the Heart." Unless you learn to combine logic and feeling in this way, to become fully alive and develop a "mercurial" consciousness, you will not be able to understand much in alchemy.

Each of the seven modules in Alchemy Study Program contains experiments that demonstrate the ideas presented. Some of the experiments are alchemistic meditations, while others are demonstrations that can be performed in your own kitchen. A comprehensive Alchemy Reference Guide, a Portfolio of Alchemical Drawings, and other downloadable books, charts, engravings, drawings, and recordings that supplement the module material.
