"Not since Carl Jung wrote on inner transformation and alchemy has there been such a revealing, illuminating discussion of this art and its hidden message."
~ Dr. Stanley Krippner
Saybrook Institute
Traditional religions, with their emphasis upon ritual and belief, often fail to meet the spiritual needs of contemporary individuals. Nonetheless, the direct experience of life's sacred dimension yields many positive results for the human personality and inner spirit. A dynamic inner process weaves through our lives whether we notice it or not. We find meaning and healing when we intentionally become conscious of its dynamic.
The Modern Alchemist has a great deal to say to those who are seeking spiritual nourishment in the modern age. It is a first-hand, experiential guide to the process which medieval alchemists represented as the transformation of "lead into gold" or lower substances into higher ones. To Richard and Iona Miller, the transformation goes much further than that--it is an inner change which leads to wholeness, integration, and flowering of the total personality.
Using the language of depth psychology as well as alchemy, they show how we can actualize our birthright and become consciously involved in the natural transformative process. In this way, we can find a more intimate connection with the guiding, nurturing powers of the universe and the "lost" parts of ourselves.
This widely acknowledged self-help text on Jungian archetypes is structured using the art prints and text of the 17th century alchemical classic Book of Lambspring. The sixteen chapters compare and contrast archetypes and alchemical operations, which lead to greater self-awareness and psychological transformation from the pits of depression to mystical illumination. The first half deals with the personal unconscious, while the second covers the stages of spiritual enlightenment. Chapter themes include persona, shadow, anima, animus, adversary, great mother, wise old man, marriage of opposites; hero, mana personality, magical child, self or God-image, conception, incubation, rebirth, illumination.

Introduction
LAMBSPRINCK'S INTRODUCTION
My name is Lambsprinck, born of a free people.
I am entitled to carry this coat of arms by right and with glory.
I have understood pure wisdom;
Through art I have penetrated to the root of everything.
And God's grace has granted me,
Wisdom together with Understanding.
For this reason am I Author of this Book,
Revealing something that is truly worthwhile,
So Rich and Poor may understand it.
What I have to disclose has no equal on Earth;
Something that I have studied deeply,
While examining the foundation of truth.
You will also find this Book is true,
If you read it often and heed its contents.
In this way you will come to learn Wisdom,
Making the best use of this gift that God grants you.
O God! Who is both end and beginning,
We beg You through Jesus Christ,
To guide our intellectual purpose,
So that we may thank You with unreserved praise!
Desiring only to perfect Your will on Earth,
Using this book and all Your creatures only for good.
Establish us in Charity,
Born of the Holy Trinity.
Now with God's Help I will begin,
Keeping nothing back.
If you understand me correctly,
You will return from Error.
There is only one substance,
In which all others are concealed.
Do not let this discourage you;
Time must test your patience.
You must will to seize the noble fruit!
Do not be put off by time and hard work.
For you must ripen the seed of the metals,
Day by day over the weeks.
Thus you will discover,
And perfect the whole art of this pure wisdom.
Something the whole world believed impossible,
Though convenient and easy.
We cannot publish it openly,
Or all men would laugh at us.
For this reason remain silent and live in obscurity,
So you may live in peace without trouble,
Keeping a pure reputation before God and all men.
Thus is the Art kept secret.
Now I shall end my Introduction,
And begin to describe the Art,
In words and pictures;
So the light may quite clearly shine.
Thanking the Creator of all things,
The first picture follows.
Behind the Scenes of My Home Page
Iona Miller, consultant and transdisciplinarian, is a nonfiction writer for both the academic and popular press, hypnotherapist (ACHE) and multimedia artist. Her work is an omnisensory fusion of depth psychology, spiritual alchemy, sacred activism, intelligence, science-art, chaos theory, plenum physics, and emergent paradigm shift melding experiential psychotherapy, new physics, biophysics, philosophy, cosmology, healing, creativity, qabalah, magick, paranormal, "dirty tricks," media ecology, mind control, paramedia, metaphysics, and culture change. Rather than having an interest in specific doctrines, she is interested in the EFFECTS of doctrines from religion, science, psychology, and the arts. Our beliefs are the moldable raw material of the psyche, manipulated by governments, media and culture. How do we become what we are and how is that process changing in the near future?
Performance artist and spywhisperer, Ms. Miller is published by Phanes Press, Destiny Books (Inner Traditions), Autonomedia, Nexus Magazine, Dream Network, PM&E, Journal of Nonlocality and Remote Mental Interactions (JNLRMI), Chaosophy Journal, OAK, DNA Monthly, Pop Occulture, Schiffer, Bolero, Science-Art Research Centre, and more.

Her artwork has shown in Miami, Phoenix, New York, in magazines and more. She has appeared in 21st Century Radio, Untamed Dimensions, Reality Portal, Digital Long Island, etc.
