In this video I examine three contemporary approaches to the study of alchemy: the anthropological, the psychological, and the metaphysical. In the first section, I examine the work of Mircea Eliade who traces the practice of Alchemy to shamanism and legends of ancient smiths. In the second section, I explain Carl Jung's Depth Psychological account in which Alchemy is said to be a metaphor for the process of individuation. And, finally, I sketch the philosophical account which takes Alchemy to be a spiritual practice whose main goal is the transfiguration of consciousness.
