"In pursuit of prestige and riches, wealthy people across medieval Europe worked in vain to transmute everyday metals into gold. Today, this process, known as chrysopoeia, is mostly dismissed as an alchemical dream. But is there any science to show that metals can be turned into gold?"

"Alchemists believed that there were ten mundane elements. They are antimony, arsenic, bismuth, boron, lithium, magnesium, phosphorus, platinum, sulfur, and zinc. There are also seven planetary metals that each correspond to different planets. They are lead, tin, iron, gold, copper, mercury, and silver. These elements were all commonly used in alchemical processes."

"Psychotherapy is often seen as a journey of self-discovery, healing, and transformation. But what if we could think of this journey through the lens of alchemy? Alchemy, the ancient practice of transforming base metals into gold, offers a vivid metaphor for the emotional and psychological changes that occur in therapy. By understanding psychotherapy as an alchemical process, we can unveil a powerful path to the soul."

"The Alchemical Operation assigned to Cancer is Dissolution. Spiritually, Dissolution involves the breaking down of corrupted aspects of the personality, or personality structures which have been erected due to societal or family programming. These aspects live in the subconscious and can be difficult to access. Certain meditations and practices help to access these structures, which must at least be recognized if not totally dissolved, if personal growth is to occur."

"The paper explores the concept of 'queer' through the lens of contemporary art, specifically examining the works of Brice Brown as representations of instability and transformation in identity. It argues against the normative associations often attached to queer identity and emphasizes the affective experience of engagement with art that reflects a constant state of flux. The discussion draws parallels between artistic practices and alchemical transformation, suggesting that both challenge fixed identities and invite viewers to consider their own processes of change."

"Alchemy is an ancient philosophical and spiritual practice that seeks to transform base metals into gold, but more profoundly, it aims to transform the human soul by uniting opposites such as masculine and feminine, hot and cold, and conscious and unconscious. This mystical pursuit of self-transformation has inspired countless artists, writers, and thinkers throughout history with its promise of personal growth, spiritual enlightenment, and ultimate union with the divine."

"The study of medieval alchemical texts is significantly limited by their inaccessibility on several levels—be it the lack of critical editions, their esoteric language, complex textual tradition and the unclear relationships in the definition of their genres and their registers. Additionally, the historiographical problem of the relationship between allegorical imagery and proto-chemical procedures in alchemy, along with its genres, still remains unresolved. This study explores the potential to expand the taxonomy of alchemical genres by integrating them into a broader classification of literary types, as verified through quantitative text analysis."
