Alchemy, possibly derived from the Arabic word al-kimia (الخيمياء), is both a philosophy and an ancient practice focused on the attempt to change base metals into gold, investigating the preparation of the "elixir of longevity", and achieving ultimate wisdom, involving the improvement of the alchemist as well as the making of several substances described as possessing unusual properties. The practical aspect of alchemy generated the basics of modern inorganic chemistry, namely concerning procedures, equipment and the identification and use of many current substances. Alchemy has been practiced in ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia (modern Iraq), India, Persia (modern Iran), China, Japan, Korea, the classical Greco-Roman world, the medieval Islamic world, and then medieval Europe up to the 20th century, in a complex network of schools and philosophical systems spanning at least 2,500 years.

Top left to right, the first one resembles the symbol for Aqua Regia and Take, the one following resembles the symbol for Venus. The middle--totally copper. I checked several websites, but I couldn't find anything that looked like the bottom symbol. I could be totally wrong about all of these. I'm including /one/ of the sources I used. I wouldn't know what meaning could be behind them, even if it hit me in the head. But looking up symbols is fun, and I too wonder why Y! is devoid of an occult section.
