What are Spagyrics?

• Spagyrics is a branch of the western alchemical tradition that involves the preparation of plants for physical and spiritual healing. The word is derived from Greek, meaning “to separate and recombine.”
• In alchemy, plants are seen to have body, soul and spirit just like humans, which correlate to their mineral salts, essential oils, and alcohol soluble constituents. In the spagyric process these are separated, purified and recombined into what is considered a spiritualized herbal extract. 
• All of our spagyrics contain only pure, crystalline mineral salts of the plants, which are the essence of their physical being. Thus they work more readily on the physical body, reducing dosage and increasing effectiveness. (Non-spagyric tinctures are devoid of the plant’s mineral salts and are considered disembodied tinctures in alchemy.)
• In alchemy, everything is said to be influenced by the 7 inner planets. Through proper timing of preparation, these celestial influences are captured and contained in the spagyrics, effectively bridging Earth and Sky, plants and planets, spiritual and physical.
