Many mahasiddhi were alchemists....Nagarjuna and nathas also practiced this discipline...There are also southern tamil siddhis of saiva siddhanta...
There is also taoist alchemy...Much has been written about caduceus and kundalini....in this regard....
But if we go back to "European alchemy" (Spain, Italy, Germany, England, France).... probably its roots go to Egypt.
The red phase can be interpreted as "renaissance" - what was literal is not obvious. rather, what is obvious is profound... a step into what some may have called religion. Literacy makes for change, whereas the red phase is quite eternity.
A holy imagined theorem. [See the Tabula Smaragdina].
