Days 2 & 3Day 2 evening, 7pm Saturday May 19thBook and CD release party held at the Donkey and CradleJoin Dr. Terry Burns, Eliska Bridges, Alan J Moore, Iva Maresova and specialinvited guests, to celebrate the publication of Vincent’s book (and his life) andthe CD music release of the Angelic Callings.Esoteric historian and researcher Vincent Bridges, best known for hiswork on Nostradamus, Enochian, and the intersections of John Dee,Edward Kelley, and William Shakespeare, passed away unexpectedly in2014. He left several unpublished manuscripts behind in the hands of hiscollaborators. The first of these, An Alchemical Enigma: A Short History ofthe Rise and Fall of Sir Edward Kelley, will be released this spring. Vincentwrote the book in 2011 while living at the Donkey in the Cradle, one ofKelley’s homes during the time he spent in Prague.An Alchemical Enigma has been edited by Dr. Terry Burns, Professor of Englishfrom the University of Wisconsin, and Ms. Eliska Bridges, an independentlicensed tour guide who accompanied and worked with Vincent on manyprojects. In addition to editing this work, they have added several appendices,including an analysis of Kelley’s poem “To G.S., Gent.,” translations ofKelley’s best-known alchemical works (Theatre of Terrestrial Astronomy, TheHumid Path, and The Stone of the Philosophers), a speculative timeline, and ahistory of The Donkey in the Cradle.Copies of An Alchemical Enigma will be available for sale, and its editors willgive a special presentation highlighting excerpts from this work of Vincent’s aswell as from two others he co-authored, Mysteries of Great Cross at Hendaye andThe Ophanic Revelation, and from his play, “The Donkey in the Cradle.”They’ll also treat you to excerpts from a CD featuring acclaimed Czech vocalist IvaMaresova. In 2013, Vincent, Iva, Eliska, and others recorded the 19 Enochian calls atthe magnificent Santini-designed Church of St. John of Nepomuk at Zelena Hora, inZdar nad Savazou, Moravia, Czech Republic. This new and unique interpretation ofthis culminating aspect of the Enochian corpus is also scheduled for release and will beavailable for sale.Performance of first two Enochian calls by acclaimed Czech vocalist Iva MaresovaThis recording of the the 19 Enochian Calls, was held at the Church of St. John ofNepomuk, a UNESCO World Heritage site. This edifice has both amazing acousticproperties and astounding energetics resulting from the powerful geophysical propertiesof the hill and surrounding area. It is then collected and amplified by Santini’sarchitectural rendering of the Church and its enveloping structure.It was the culmination of a dream for Vincent Bridges, who was responsible for itsproduction. Unlike those before him, Bridges viewed the Enochian (or Ophanic orpage 10

Days 2 & 3Angelic) work of Dee and Kelley not as an outgrowth of the western mystery tradition butas a literal intervention from outside. He and his students viewed it as a transformativesystem best described in energetic states, where even the letters themselves functioningas waveguides. They saw Enochian as a system of 4th dimensional and higher geometriesthat, when properly set up, worked almost automatically. Just as the nucleus of humancells put out light or photon emissions that are then automatically received by other cells,Bridges believed the “alchemy of light” generated by a correctly set-up Enochian Templeworked as a kind of bioenergetic machine provided to humans from the outside to helpjump-start their own evolution. These objects that are formed work automatically bytheir shape or function as they exist physically in higher dimensions; they sing “Evolve!”to those parts of us that already exist in higher realms. That is radically different from anyother understanding of what it is and how it works.Also this evening, J. Alan Moore (Alaerian), who has presented several workshops onEnochian with Vincent, will perform on harp, and be available to answer questions aboutthe 19 Angelic Calls.How can we wrap up an evening like this? With a play! As you may know, Vincent’splay “In the Donkey in the Cradle” was to be performed at the Donkey the very dayVincent tragically and unexpectedly died. We are currently in the midst of discussionswith one of the principle actors and hope to have a short piece from this play performedon the evening. More information will be available on this soon.SpiritualityPlease join us for this very special evening.Day 3Sunday May 20, 8pmJazz Boat river cruise on the VltavaAs indicated by its name, the JazzBoat is a boat devoted to jazz in allits forms: Traditiona, Latin, Cuban orBrazilian influences, ethno jazz orpure swing and blues.

Day 4Day 4Monday Morning, 9.30 am to 12. May 21Dr. Teresa Burns and Alan J MooreThe Search for the Philosopher’s Stone”, Alchemy in Rudolfine Prague and anintroduction to the Angelic callings of the Enochian language (or, how did learning to talkwith angels become part of the Great Work?)The body of work generally known today as Enochian is one of the most enigmaticand fascinating subjects in the western esoteric quest. During the last years of the 16thcentury, this language and the system accompanying it was received and recorded byEnglishman John Dee, considered by many the most educated man in England and hiscountryman, and the alchemist Edward Kelley.What are alchemists talking about when they refer to “The Philosopher’s Stone”? Teresawill answer this from several perspectives ranging from “the spiritual” and alchemy ofmetals, to the transmutation of time and a look at human bloodlines. Alchemy, accordingto the Jungians, “Isis the Prophetess to Her Son Horus,” is a curious mix of Hebraic andEgyptian mysticism probably originating in first-century Alexandria, where Egypt mysteryschools combine alchemical instruction with angelic intervention. After this, nothingsimilar appears in known writing for another 1,000 years!Dr. Burns will give a presentation on the “History of Alchemy in Prague” and introduceus to the intertwined lives of some of the alchemists and proto-scientists associatedwith Renaissance Prague, including Tadeáš Hájek, John Dee, Edward Kelley, TychoBrahe, Oswald Croll, Michał Sedziwój, and Michael Maier. From Hermetic astrology, tobloodline politics, from proto-chemistry to apocalyptic philosophy, Dr. Burns will takeyou on a roller coaster ride so you are totally up to speed with the last 3000 years ofalchemical enquiry!Topics Alchemy as it intersects with art, architecture and theater Alchemy and the apocalypse: Prague as New Jerusalem A Renaissance enigma: Alchemy? Magic? Espionage? Reported successful transformations: George Ripley, Edward Kelley, Alexander Seton Michael Maier’s alchemical emblems and music Harp Music by AlaerianThis will lead us into the afternoon walking tour of Prague Castle with Eliska Bridges.page 12

Day 4 AfternoonDay 4Monday May 21, 2 to 6 pmWalking tour of Old Prague with Eliska BridgesA New Jerusalem in Bohemia - the Capitol of the Noble ArtsLegendsThe beginnings of Prague s history emerge from the shadowsof paganism and many hazy legends. The city prophesied byLibuse, grew into being a new spiritual center of the world.It became a magnet for mystics, spiritualists, alchemists,scientists, philosophers, freemasons and artists. The relativereligious tolerance was a very important ingredient of thismixture, since it created the base for cross-cultural and crossinterdisciplinary sharing. Prague was and still remains amelting pot of ideas and approaches.What beliefs connected Prague to New Jerusalem? Did theyhave any validity? Who were the seekers who came to Prague,and what were they attracted by?We will look into the old legends, visit the power spots,discover the places where great thinkers lived, and enjoy thePrague game of decoding the esoteric meanings on many ofthe public facades. You will find yourself standing at PragueCastle with Eliska, listening to the esoteric connections andstories behind these buildings. We will also visit places thatare usually off the track of tourist groups.Seeing both the monuments famousin alchemy circles as well as otherplaces less known is the onlytrue way to get an image of theCapitol of the Noble Arts!page 13

Days 5, 6, 7 & 8Did the ancientalchemists use moldaviteas part of their“Philosopher’s Stone?Lead,Mercury,GoldDay 5, 6, 7 & 8Tours of Old Bohemia with Eva LenovaGuided day trips in mysterious Cesky Krumlov and its surroundsFor a brief spell in Bohemia, a hermetic, alchemical and kabbalisticenlightenment influenced the seeds of modern science and attemptedto give birth to a new era. In her classic book, The RosicrucianEnlightenment, the great historian Frances Yates brought alive to themodern world an extraordinary period in early 17th Century Europe,long lost to memory. Only now, almost four hundred years after thepublication of the Rosicrucian manifesto and the Alchemical Wedding ofChristian Rosenkreutz, are we awakening to the full significance of thatmoment and its relevance to our own epoch.Join us on this imaginative and spiritual rediscovery of that magicaltime in the very region where “it all took place”. We travel from Praguein our coach through the lands of castles, rivers, dragons and ancientheroes to the lands of old Bohemia. Eva Lenova will lead us on manyadventures around the lands of Cesky Krumlov, including labyrinths,sacred springs and castles.Day 6, 7 & 8Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. 9.30 to 5pm. May 23, 24 & 25Venue: Ruze Hotel, Dragon Rose and Cesky KrumlovAdvanced AlchemyThe working of Metals, Gold, Ormus, Transmutations and thePhilosophers Stone.Paul will take us through some of the advance stages of Alchemyand how to work with the metals, Lead, Mercury, Gold and thetransmutations of the elements, including the Philosophers Stone.It is important to remember that the Alchemists of old were at thecutting edge of science, and we consider - we still are! We believethe true ethical power of science is between the manifested andunmanifested, the physical and the spiritual. Modern reductionist theoryhas its limits, and perhaps it is time that science takes in the finer featuresof the infinite universe we live in.With our understanding of the Fractal Field, Golden Mean Ratio,insights from Dan Winter, and advancements in plasma technologiessuch as the Theraphi Device, you will be initiated into a new world ofideas, processes and understanding of a deeper life purpose.page 14

Emperor Rudolf II. von Habsburg and Wilhelm von Rosenberg,became the most important Maecenas of the hermetic sciences. Aroundthe House of Rosenberg arose a second center of hermetic and alchemicactivity. Renowned historical characters worked their magic in Wilhelm’sSouth Bohemian dominion - in Trebon, Prachatice, and especially inCeský Krumlov, which has been called “the South Bohemian Mecca ofalchemists”page 15
