Alchemy is an ancient branch of natural philosophy, a philosophical and proto-scientific tradition. The perfection of the human body and soul was thought to result from the alchemical magnum opus (“Great Work”).
The concept of creating the philosopher’s stone was variously connected with all of these projects. Modern discussions of alchemy are generally split into an examination of its exoteric practical applications and its esoteric spiritual aspects.
