Alchemy is the science of the transformation of matter. In the crucible, the alchemist places the prima materia, the base matter, which, initially, dies and rots down; this operation corresponds to the colour black. Next, the matter is dissolved and purified and becomes white. Then come distillation and conjunction, where the matter turns red, and finally sublimation, where the colour turns to gold. These operations remain obscure for many and only become clear if they are interpreted as different stages of inner life. The work alchemists perform on the matter in the crucible is, in fact, the work of regeneration disciples perform in the crucible of their own body, a work to which they must devote their entire life. The regenerated matter comes out of the crucible transformed into gold: a regenerated human being has died to their lower nature and been born to their higher. Jesus said, ‘Unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains just a single grain; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.’ This sentence can be taken as a summary of alchemical work.
