Dictionary of Alchemy - Artemajos

Alchemy deals with the finest forces and states of nature. In secular alchemy, the goal is to turn base metals into gold. In spiritual alchemy, the goal is to transform the lower side of man into the divine, higher trinity.

Throughout the ages, alchemists have used secret symbolism, which is why the uninitiated cannot access the secrets of alchemy.

Alchemy has been practiced for millennia. In medieval Europe, alchemists were employed by rulers. Many important natural scientists have also been alchemists.
