VISIONS OF ZOSIMOS: ALCHEMY AND SACRIFICE with Eliza Swann
March 7th, 2023
7:30pm - 8:30pm

Tickets by donation, no one turned away for lack of funds

During this talk, we'll focus specifically on the creative and spiritual philosophies of Zosimos of Panopolis, an alchemist living in Egypt in the 3rd century CE. Against the wider backdrop of alchemical philosophy, we'll examine Zosimos’s spiritual and artistic methods that use meditative practices, astrology, and the conjuration of the spirits of nature to achieve insight and transformation. Zosimos reveals an alchemy in which spiritual and material realities are ultimately nondual; in which materials become living bodies for divine spirits. In getting to know Zosimos, we can learn to employ his strategies for creative breakthrough and generative connection in our own lives. Hang out at Honey's afterwards with other magically minded folks in New York City!
