I am interested in Alchemy. plain and simple. I have been interested in it for a while but never really did anything about. I never read any books about it or anything. I wondering if there is anyone out there that is skilled or even remotely educated in it. I really want to know some things like, what is it really, what is involved, what kind of books are there out there that are good.

Thanks,


Mike M.

Good day,
I would not say I'm proficient but I have read several texts and have been known to incorporate aspects when a spell would benefit. Hear are the books I have read and a link to where they can be found, if you need something more or another book, I'm in position of some great number of them so feel free to contact me.

--------------------
Cosmic consciousness is devoid of diversity; yet the universe of diversity exists in notion....
We contemplate that reality in which everything exists, to which everything belongs,
from which everything has emerged, which is the cause of everything and which is everything....
The light of [this] self-knowledge alone illumines all experiences. It shines by its own light.
This inner light appears to be outside and to illumine external objects.

-Sage Vasishtha

Thanks everybody. This info should keep me busy for a while. Might have to take a break for school though.

I practice alchemy. If you have a more specific question in mind I might be able to help. Also point you toward more modern sources which should make things a little clearer so you might be able to gleam the older texts. Also keep in mind there is spiritual alchemy and practical alchemy which on the outside look seperate but once you start practicing you will find they are one and the same.

I wanted to go for practical alchemy. That is just the way I am. If, you don't mind, how did you start?
