What is Alchemy

Alchemy has nothing to do with fantasies, old fairy tales on gold treasures, diabolical secrets, or conspiracy theories.

Alchemy is understanding Nature with purity of mind and intelligence of heart.

The Real Alchemy follows Nature and draws from It the teachings used in the practical Work.

Alchemy never goes against nature.

“Alchemy is not just an initiatic study
suitable for the chosen few, but it is
culture, a system of life that allows one
to live in harmony with oneself and others.
It accompanies the small steps that are
done during the day, makes us aware of
the ‘mystery’ of everything that surrounds
us and, in this way, makes more objective
the way of seeing life itself and its events”

Mario Riccardo Villanova Sammarco
