Once again I find myself wide awake at midnight and beyond. My sleeping schedule is really messed up these days! As I sat meditating in front of the fire in my atrium last night, I was pondering the subject of transmutation, which in alchemy is changing base metals to precious metals, like lead to gold. What we are witnessing in human culture is our own transmutation from a level of ignorance into the higher thoughts and realizations that we are more than what we believed we were. I would call it a paradigm transmutation from lack to abundance, from slavery to freedom. I have the sense that we will witness more and more of this shift; and everyone will be affected.

I SIMPLY ADORE TRANSMUTATION!
Thank you Our Dear Mister Wizard!
While watching your video I suddenly realized why I had such a difficult childhood. It was simply so that I could learn to transmute feelings. Once I learned how to do that, life became so much less painful.

How to transmute feelings/emotions?
How does one transmute feelings and emotions please?
Thank YOU.
The way I do it
If I feel sad or angry or depressed, I tell myself that it is not real to feel that way. Sometimes it takes me a little while to get it. So I sometimes suffer a little, but as quick as I can I turn that "suffering" into a sacrifice - the word means literally "making sacred" or even "Making by the heart." Then because I will have mercy and not sacrifice, I let it go and then the joy comes back. Sometimes it is more complicated if someone other than myself has expectations, because I don't like to disappoint people, but this man is right, it is a fire - a spiritual fire - that consumes all the bad feelings and sends them back as good.

Transmuting feelings
Personally for me, I give myself 10 20 or 30 mins to vent or stew on the wrong doing of it all. Depending on the size of the hurt, because basically that is what we are feeling. By giving it room to be what it is and not be consumed by it, you can release it with more ease than you think.
Thereby freeing your mind for the loving thoughts you should be carrying at all times. It gets super easy if you don't fight the ego all day. Let it have its say, and then move on. It's in the past!
OK
I just went into more detail, it is basically the same process. But I don't allow myself to dwell on it.
