实践中的Spagyrics

Spagyric最通常是指一种植物tin剂，还向其添加了被烧植物的灰烬。 The original rationale behind these special herbal tinctures seems to have been that an extract using alcohol could not be expected to contain all the medicinal properties from a living plant and so the ash or mineral component of the burned plant was prepared separately and then added back to 'augment' the alcoholic tincture.这些特殊草药tin剂背后的原始原理似乎是，不能预期使用酒精的提取物会包含活植物的所有药用特性，因此，将燃烧过的植物的灰分或矿物质成分单独制备，然后添加至“增强”酒精tin剂。 The roots of the word therefore refer first to the extraction or separation process and then to the recombining process.因此，该词的词根首先是指提取或分离过程，然后是重组过程。 These herbal tinctures are alleged to have superior medicinal properties to simple alcohol tinctures.据称这些草药tin剂比简单的酒精tin剂具有更好的药用特性。 In theory these spagyrics can also optionally include material from fermentation of the plant material and also any aromatic component such as might be obtained through distillation.从理论上讲，这些散剂还可以任选地包括来自植物材料发酵的材料，以及任何芳香成分，例如可以通过蒸馏获得的芳香成分。 The final spagyric should be a reblending of all such extracts into one 'essence.'最终的spagyric应该是将所有此类提取物重新融合为一种“精华”。
“物质的基础是盐，硫和汞的炼​​金术原理。盐是固定性（不作用）和不燃性的原理；汞是可熔性（熔融和流动性）和挥发性的原理；以及硫是易燃性的原则。”三种主要的炼金性质及其在spagytic疗法中的对应关系是：
汞=水元素，代表植物的生命精华，植物的纯酒精提取物是生命精华的载体。
盐=土质元素，代表从煅烧后的植物灰中提取的植物盐。
硫=火元素，是植物的特质，代表植物的挥发油香精。
帕拉塞尔苏斯指出，炼金术的真正目的不是为了制金的粗俗目的，而是为了药品的生产。 Paracelsus在他的书《 Liber Paragranum》中使用了“ Spagyria”一词，该词源于希腊语“ spao”和“ ageiro”，其基本含义是“分离并结合”。
He formulated that nature in itself was 'raw and unfinished' and man had the God-given task to evolve things to a higher level.他认为大自然本身是“未完成的”，人类有上帝赋予的任务将事物发展到更高的水平。 As an example: The 'raw' medicinal plant would be separated into the basic components he termed 'mercurius', 'sulphur' and 'sal' and thereby cleaned of nonessential components.例如：将“原始”药用植物分为他称为“水星”，“硫”和“盐”的基本成分，从而清除不必要的成分。 'Mercurius', 'sulphur' and 'sal' were then recombined forming the medicine.然后将“ Mercurius”，“硫”和“ sal”重新组合，形成药物。
In contemporary terms this would be the extraction of the essential oils with vapor gaining the 'sulphur'.用当代的话来说，这就是利用蒸气中的“硫”来提取精油。 Then fermentation of the remaining plant and distilling the alcohol produced thus gaining 'mercurius'.然后发酵剩余的植物并蒸馏产生的醇，从而获得“水银”。 Extraction of the mineral components from the ash of the marc which would be the 'sal'.从马克的灰中提取矿物成分，这就是“盐”。 Diluting the essential oils in the alcohol and then solving the mineral salts in it would produce the final potion.稀释酒精中的精油，然后溶解其中的矿物质盐将产生最终的药水。
请注意，这是过程的简化表示，其变化取决于所选择的来源。
