In the Alchemist's Studio: White
White is symbolic of spiritual consciousness and knowledge. It symbolises purity and has associations with the moon. It reflects all and therefore gives nothing but itself. In this sense, it is seen as the ‘father’, whereas darkness, which absorbs and contains all colour, is the ‘mother’.
White is the manifestation of the mystery of darkness. It is the other side of darkness and resides within darkness just as darkness resides within light/white. Without the other, neither can exist. White is the physical ‘created’ light whereas gold denotes spiritual, ‘uncreated’ light, eternal light which existed before the creation.
The first day of the workshop will be an enquiry into the nature of white, how it is made alchemically from darkness and its symbolic nature in the souls the awakening.
The second day will be a practical exploration with ink and brush on paper journeying into the nature of white in all its aspects through the seven tones and the seven levels of being, each tone expressing a different stage in the evolution of the soul's awakening.
