What happens when you've done all you know how to do, the paved paths end, and you still feel like you're missing something? The Second Half of the Mountain offers a practical and magical approach to recognizing and working with the deeper and often confusing inner processes that happen after spiritual awakening.
This book will give you an understanding of
- The seven stages of alchemical transformation and the building blocks of alchemy
- The dark nights of the soul and how they differ from the dark nights of the spirit
- What comes after the dark nights in the alchemical pattern of transformation
- Why it gets worse before it gets worse sometimes
- Navigating the nothingness that comes from being distilled down to essence
- How to make your own way where it feels there is no way
If you're experiencing dark and confusing processes but aren't new to inner healing or spiritual work, this rare and magical book will meet you in your aloneness and provide context to take you further.
