Review

I began this book with some trepidation, having for whatever reason always found alchemy a subject difficult for me to feel attuned with.

However I soon found myself captivated by the way Ramsay leads us through his understanding of the stages of relationship and how they meld with alchemy. This is a book that will challenge how we look at relationships and the dynamics involved, but also gives wonderfully practical exercises to take part in, bringing the theory - which is carefully and succinctly described in terms any can understand – into real practical use.

In my opinion, this is a book which can be read and the wisdom within it applied not just to the ‘passionate relationships’ of the title, but to the deep relationships we all have with those others who surround us and, perhaps even more importantly, with relationship with ourselves. Having read this book, I for one will never look at relationships in the same way again!
