Diving Deeper into the World Of Spagyrics:
Spagyric’s History
The word Spagyrics comes from ancient Greece and can be divided into two parts. “Spao” = I Collect, and “Agerio” = Recombine. So while it is often defined as simply herbal alchemy it also means to separate and recombine.
Spagyric plant extracts originated in ancient alchemy it was and still is deemed as one of the most sacred and holistic ways of creating plant medicine. By separating the three basic principles (Oils, Alcohol and Mineral Salts) of a plant and then recombining them the end product is unlike any other tincture or extract.

In alchemical philosophy, it is said that EVERYTHING in the universe can be separated into three basic principles. As seen below, in plants the physical aspects represent soul, spirit and body.
Essential Oils (Soul)
Alcohol (Spirit)
Mineral Salts (Body)
Spagyric Extraction Process:
1: Alcohol Extraction
We begin by doing an organic alcohol extraction. Alcohol as a solvent is the most optimal as it extracts both fat-soluble and water-soluble components. Alcohol is also the only solvent that retains all the compounds of the plant in the same ratio and spectrum as the original plant. Alcohol is a solvent made of plants, for plants.
2: Mineral and Salt Extraction
In order to extract the minerals and salts that are trapped inside the plant fibers, the depleted plant material is taken out and burned. This process is known as calcination. The end result of the calcination is a sterilized ash where the water-soluble mineral salts have been released from its carbon bonds. This ash is then filtered through with distilled water. The water is then evaporated and only pure crystal minerals and salts are left.
3: Recombination
The crystal minerals and salts are then put back into the alcohol extraction. This completes the spagyric extraction process. The tincture now contains all the plants compounds maintained in the same structure and ratio as the original plant, but now in a more potent and purer form. Now that the three principles have been brought together, a natural chemical reaction occurs where the fat-soluble compounds are converted to water-soluble compounds – so you absorb almost all of what you put into your body.

What is Alchemy Used For?
Alchemy is an ancient practice in which early practitioners aimed to transmute metals into gold, discover universal cures for sickness and disease, and create elixirs of longevity or eternal life. Although the use of early alchemical practices was ultimately not successful in achieving these specific goals, alchemists were able to better understand the nature of matter and ultimately create the foundation for modern science and chemistry. Today, alchemy is used in manufacturing metals, ceramics, glass, pigments, cosmetics, extracts and more.
What is Plant Alchemy?
Plant or herbal alchemy is the practice of converting plant matter into a remedy and ultimately into a higher state of being. Through alchemical practices, nearly every plant substance can be transformed into a more potent, purified version of itself and, therefore, into a medicinal remedy that can be used for a multitude of ailments. Herbal alchemy has been used for centuries throughout Europe, Africa, India, and Asia as a means to cure sickness and disease. While pharmaceuticals have long dominated in modern health care, alchemy is becoming increasingly popular throughout Western culture.
What does an Alchemist do?
An alchemist is someone who studies or practices alchemy. Alchemists believe that any substance or matter can be transmuted into an elevated and purified state of being. Many early alchemists believed that this could be done by using astrology. While astrology is still used in modern alchemy, todays alchemists aim to achieve this elevated transformation through a combination of chemistry and spiritual and energetic practices.
