Alchemy[edit | edit source]
Contrary to popular belief, transmutation of iron to gold was more of a metaphor of how spiritual work can make you a better person or something (Well you see, Alchemy is technically real because scientists at CERN is able to turn lead atoms into gold by accelerating lead(208) ions at near light speed, which makes their magnetic field squashed and produce short-lived pulse of photons. Often, this triggers a process called electromagnetic dissociation, and when the ions pass by, the photons will interact with the nucleus thus exciting the oscillations of the nucleus internal structure, causing some nucleons (proton and neutrons) to be ejected, transmuting it into other elements, so that mean if it dissociates 2 neutrons and 3 protons, it would make Gold(203). It is sometimes used in NoFap communities to explain how never gooning will turn you into a Gigachad.

An ancient belief system created by Hermes Trismegistus, who wrote the series of books called Hermetica. It was too big of a wall of text, so the byzantine editors wrote a tl;dr version called Corpus Hermeticum. There is also a XX-century book called Kybalion, best known for the Seven Hermetic Principles.
