just let go of needing to explain it at all, and just go with it as an experience. There is something there, but we don’t really understand it, and maybe we can’t really understand it. And that’s OK.

Alchemy’s metaphorical language and concrete practices offer a way to re-imagine inner life and the process of psychological growth.

Woo from people who take phenomenology, cognitive science, machine learning, and epistemology seriously of course will hit different. It's vastly more capable of self-articulation, development, testing, and consistency-checks. It's the good stuff.
