Alchemy is NOT mixing "oil of gold" with the "red dragon", getting a brown gooey matter and calling it "philosopher's stone". That's called bullshit.
Alchemy is rooted in science. Its processes are timeless and don't become obsolete. What worked before are still working now.
It's just that the recipes of the past are encrypted and obscured. Once decoded, they are the meaningful chemical reactions that explain aged old secrets and are verifiable by current chemistry.
These chemical reactions then reverberate to the soul. Every intricacies has esoteric significance and is all-encompassing, enriching the soul.
Alchemy is the merger of two aspects - the spiritual and the practical, or what i would call the spirit and the body. They go together and must not be separated for both prove each other. Both of them justify each other. And both of them combined refine the soul.
And once we prove both and reap the rewards of the completion of the Great Work, the Soul will be Immortal and Illuminated.
That's the Promise of Alchemy. And Alchemy doesn't break promises.
