The etymological origin of the word Alchemy is Greek. Many define it as an esoteric science related to the transmutation of matter. The experiences and practices of Alchemy determined the origin and development of modern chemistry.

Alchemy is presented in various forms in popular culture, and is mainly cited in movies, stories, games and shows as the mechanism used to convert lead, or some other element, into gold. Alchemy is also involved in the search for the philosopher’s stone, to achieve eternal life.

In the spiritual field of alchemy, alchemists must first transform their soul in order to transform metals. In other words, they had to purify their soul through fasting and prayer.

Today, progress has been made to achieve some of the objectives of Alchemy, using scientific methods.
