Cherry Gilchrist duikt in het oude en het mysterieuze, en put inspiratie uit uitgebreid veldonderzoek in diverse landschappen, van Russische bossen tot het afgelegen Paaseiland. Haar schrijven verkent de interactie tussen mythologie, alchemie en persoonlijke connecties, waarbij tijdloze archetypen worden belicht. Ze staat bekend om het verbinden van oude wijsheid met het hedendaagse leven, met een bijzondere focus op de uitdrukking van vrouwelijke archetypen in de dagelijkse ervaringen van vrouwen. Haar werk biedt lezers een unieke lens om diepere patronen van het menselijk bestaan te begrijpen.

Introduction and Notes by Professor Stephen Arkin, San Francisco University. 'Young women who have no economic or political power must attend to the serious business of contriving material security'. Jane Austen's sardonic humour lays bare the stratagems, the hypocrisy and the poignancy inherent in the struggle of two very different sisters to achieve respectability. Sense and Sensibility is a delightful comedy of manners in which the sisters Elinor and Marianne represent these two qualities. Elinor's character is one of Augustan detachment, while Marianne, a fervent disciple of the Romantic Age, learns to curb her passionate nature in the interests of survival. This book, the first of Austen's novels to be published, remains as fresh a cautionary tale today as it ever was.

Die als Astrologin und Wahrsagerin arbeitende Anthropologin zeigt Wege auf, um verborgene Fähigkeiten zu aktivieren. Sie bedient sich dabei der allegorischen Embleme der "Atlanta Fugiens" (1617) des Alchimisten Michael Maier, die sie im Kontext alchimistischer Lehren interpretiert. Alchimie war nicht beschränkt auf den materiellen Aspekt einer Umwandlung von Blei in Gold, sondern dahinter stand die Idee eines geistigen Transformations und Wachstumsprozesses. So sind denn auch die Übungen angelegt, die Gilchrist empfiehlt, beispielsweise den eigenen Willen entdecken, Träume festhalten, vernachlässigte alte Aktivitäten wieder aufnehmen, über Veränderungen nachsinnen. Ziel auch der Visualisierungsübungen ist es, wieder "eine gesunde Verbindung zum Leben herzustellen". Wie modern Alchimie oder eine bestimmte alchimistische Sichtweise ist, deutet sich auch in alchimistischen Firmenkonzepten, etwa bei Wala und Weleda an (vgl. "Paracelsusmedizin", ID 36/01).
