Experience the heart that comes through the pages of Aromatic Alchemy and begin your journey."

~Shelley von Strunckel (Internationally Published Astrologer and Consultant, London and New York)

"I can only recommend this book, Aromatic Alchemy, as an enjoyable experience that offers ideas about transformation and in the process makes for a practical, sensible, sensuous encounter. This book~and the tools suggested~has the capacity to attune with you and vibrate with you to make life that little bit better."
~Jan Kusmirek (Medical Herbalist and Founder of Fragrant Earth, Glastonbury, UK)

"Anyone interested in finding ways to improve their life by wanting to open their creativity, intuition and dreams~it's here! There is fantastic information on alchemy, metaphysics, sacred shapes, goddess myths, colors, gemstones, and energy balancing, as well as the vibrational properties of seventy essential oils and how they relate to the chakras and auras, influencing all emotional and etheric bodies, including their correlation to the Chinese Five Element theories. I have never found ALL OF THIS in one book."
~Chatrigna Ferguson (Animal Healing Realm-Equine and Animal Therapist, Colorado and St. Moritz, Switzerland)
