  External Alchemy in China: Evolution & Decline
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 07-29-2025, 03:49 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"External alchemy first appeared in the Western Han Dynasty. In the second year of Yuanguang in the Western Han Dynasty (133 BC), the alchemist Li Shaojun asked Emperor Wu to "offer sacrifices to the kitchen god" and "summon spiritual beings", and to transform cinnabar into gold "to make eating utensils". Emperor Wu followed his advice, "personally offered sacrifices to the kitchen god", and "engaged in transforming cinnabar and other medicinal ingredients into gold", indicating the emergence of external alchemy."

In the Consideration of the Fifth Essence of All Things, the 14th century alchemist John of Rupescissa recorded the preservative properties of the distillate of wine, which he called aqua vitae. “John…notes how meat left in the open air quickly begins to rot, but when immersed in alcohol it is preserved indefinitely…,” Johns Hopkins University professor Lawrence M Principe wrote in The Secrets of Alchemy (2012).

  Updated EB article: Magic in Christianity
Posted by: Paul Ferguson - 07-29-2025, 02:50 PM - Forum: Articles on alchemy - No Replies

"Christian legend and myth also found fertile ground in the practices of alchemy. Through the perfection of metals the alchemists sought their own perfection and, indeed, the salvation of all matter. The alchemist sought to dissolve and then fuse his own physical matter and spirit with the prime matter of the universe. These efforts at the reduction into prime matter were thought to make possible the re-creation of individual and cosmos as a single, pure element."
