Unleashing the Inner Flame: The First Step Towards Alchemy and Spiritual Enlightenment

Updated: Sep 21

Have you ever questioned why some individuals are on a spiritual quest while others are stuck in a repetitive cycle? I've realized that experiencing emotional pain or discomfort is necessary to unearth something hidden within.


Drawing from personal experience, my soulful journey commenced in February 2022, and it was through a profound experience of love and loss that I uncovered a hidden, clenched fist within me.


The fist represents repressed emotions that are unknown or unresolved. These hidden emotions can lead to health problems overtime and much relationship discomfort.

Throughout our life we will experience traumatic events that greatly impact us. 


When we are conscious of them we can deal with our feelings immediately, if not we pack them away. 


Picture a fist buried deep in your chest. Once compounded the clenched fist resides unknown and unwelcome. 


During bouts of emotional turmoil or protectionism and unbeknownst to you the fist comes straight up and punches you on the chin.


During certain times of our lives you will be awarded a key to unlock repressed emotions.


The key will come at a great cost, yet affords insurmountable value and peace in return.


Expect an emotional storm, when that storm appears open up to look at yourself and discover how the event arrived.


Unclench the fist and search for help with an open hand.

Once your hand is open, your heart and mind are also open, releasing any pressure that had once been building.


Now that your hand is open, instead of one muddled mess or fist you see multiple fingers or points to uncover in yourself.


While being conscious of your journey, continue to practice and be aware of your heightened state.


It will be easy to slip back into a pattern but with strong discipline and the rush of emotional freedom the practice will become naturally organic.


One method to apply when you feel anxiety, fear or any negative emotion is remember where you originated or the clenched fist.

Now raise your middle finger from the fist and flip your negative feelings “the bird” and release them. 


This exercise will be liberating so take time to reflect on the steps of your journey.  Remember to smile after ”the bird” as you deserve the praise.


To ignite the fire infinitely, simply raise your finger. Ketchum's journey involves connecting with Mother Earth, the Self, and the Oneness through the four Elements. Begin your study of Alchemy with the first step, calcification, and reach out to us to start the fire.
