Laboratory Alchemy: Practical Procedures and Methods

This book takes a practical, hands-on approach to alchemy. Set up your own lab and learn how to make tinctures and elixirs. Experiments demonstrate the philosophical and spiritual principles behind alchemy. Over 200 experiments actually performed by medieval alchemists are presented. But the emphasis is on learning the things that make alchemy different from chemistry - how to become fully engaged in an experiment and work on all levels of reality at once. As alchemists, our intentions and desires are always the secret ingredients in our work.
