About Alchemy Expert

Alchemy Expert is an independent publication exploring alchemy, consciousness, psychedelics, philosophy and mysticism. We read the old texts closely, follow the new research carefully, and write for curious minds who suspect reality is stranger and richer than it looks.

What we cover

Alchemy, consciousness, psychedelics, Jungian psychology, mysticism, magick, philosophy, dreams and strange history. We read old texts closely and follow new research carefully, and we write for curious readers rather than specialists.

Strange ideas, well sourced

That is the whole promise. The subjects can be strange; the reporting should not be. We tell you what the evidence shows, what it does not, and where the people who study it disagree.

How stories are sourced

Every article lists its sources at the end, and we prefer primary texts and scholarly work over summaries of summaries. Images are public domain or openly licensed wherever possible, and every image is credited with its source and license. Our full rules are in our editorial standards.

Who publishes it

Alchemy Expert is an independent publication, published in association with Odin Books. We are not funded by any religious, commercial or political organization, and no one pays to appear in our coverage.
