Week 6, Alchemy
Alchemy has always seemed to be another one of those words that can be used for many things: the process of turning metals to gold, the inner transformational process of spiritual evolution, or any magical process of transmutation. In terms of chemistry, alchemy seems to really happen with the elements but we are still fuzzy on how that works. So if it is a science, magic, or art would depend on what aspect/definition of alchemy we chose to chose.

The "how" of alchemy seems generally fuzzy to me ... and seems to be an interplay between sciene, art and magic...
