The alchemical table of symbols was an elaborate system created by alchemists to represent various materials, processes, and concepts they used in their quest to turn base metals into gold. Developed in the medieval and Renaissance periods, this symbolic language served both as a method of communication and a way to safeguard their knowledge.

History

In the table, each symbol represented a specific element, compound, or process, giving alchemists a way to communicate ideas subtly. For instance, the sun symbol often represented gold, while the crescent moon symbolized silver. The table also includes symbols marking different stages of alchemical transformation, such as calcination, distillation, and transmutation.
