'...continues his teachings in psychoidal alchemy with an in-depth look at the feminine aspect of the divine and the pivotal role of love and wisdom in our spiritual evolution. In the esoteric teachings of alchemy, Gnosticism, and Sufism, Sophia is the embodiment of Wisdom, the matrix from which God arose, His heavenly consort, and mirror. According to these teachings, Sophia suffered a fall from this exalted state, and we see parallels to this fall in the overall devaluation [of] the feminine in our modern world. The alchemical process illustrates Sophia's fall, transformation, incarnation, and union with God. Without Sophia, God is not whole. It is our task to work with soulful imagination to reunite Sophia and God.'
