At the Crossroads
My day job, my health, and my sanity seemed poised to pop next, along with my personal finances. Everything good in my life was collapsing around me, and I knew I had to do something to shore up what little remained intact.
The prudent move at the time would have been to make calls to a divorce lawyer, a real estate agent, and a job-hunting service. What, then, was I doing spending all my evenings and weekends in the garden shed behind the house?
Why, I was studying alchemy, of course.
Faced with a life-changing crisis, a young man seeks salvation in self-directed mystical study. The allegorical truths he finds in fantastical alchemical engravings, rich kabbalistic texts, and early American folk recordings shine a light on a path through the darkness and back toward better days.
In I Woke Up This Morning, Clint Marsh recounts his tumultuous passage through his first Saturn return. His experience grants him three foundational mystic lessons, presented here to help anyone going through hard times at any point in life.
Originally printed in the sixth issue of Fiddler's Green Peculiar Parish Magazine, Marsh's essay is illustrated with a selection of engravings from sixteenth- and seventeenth-century sources.
Clint Marsh uses elements of myth, magic, folklore, and humor to help people navigate everyday life. He is the editor of Fiddler's Green Peculiar Parish Magazine and a winner of the Bookseller/Diagram Prize.
