In the heart of the luminous meadows of the Swiss Alps, the buttercup, with its golden bloom, captures the sun's rays like a mirror of hidden truths. This spagyric tincture, made from fresh flowers of Ranunculus acris, is the result of meticulous alchemical work, respectful of lunar and solar rhythms. Each harvest is done manually at dawn, when the plant still pulses with dew from invisible realms. The flowers are then macerated in a 40° artisanal fruit alcohol, releasing their energy in a slow alchemical gestation divided into four phases: extraction, decantation, purification, and sealing.

Traditionally, buttercup is associated with solar forces. But unlike the gentleness of a benevolent light, this flower works through trial: it illuminates without detour, awakens without complacency. It is a herb of truth, revealing unspoken words, dissonances, and misalignments between heart, thought, and action beneath its golden shine. In some ancient traditions, it was said to open the eyes of the soul, though sometimes painfully. This tincture is therefore meant for true seekers, for those unafraid to face themselves, even when the mirror is harsh.

Used in external application, the buttercup tincture works on a subtle level, especially when applied to energy points related to speech (throat), self-esteem (solar plexus), or karmic memory (wrists, ankles, lower back). It can accompany purification rituals, acts of truth, moments of introspection, or personal awakening processes. In certain esoteric contexts, it is used to "burn the veils," dispelling illusions and granting raw lucidity.

Its preparation is based on the principles of vegetal spagyria, an art rooted in the great alchemical tradition. The plant is treated as a tripartite being: body, soul, and spirit. Work on the plant goes beyond chemical extraction, including a reintegration process that gathers the plant's vital forces into a stable, living, and active form. This care at every stage gives the tincture its unique vibrational and energetic quality.

It is important to emphasize a crucial point: buttercup is a toxic plant, especially in its fresh state. It must be handled and used with discernment. The tincture we offer is not a medical remedy. It must not replace any medical treatment or professional health advice.

It is strictly for external use only, within a ritual, energetic, or symbolic framework. Any ingestion is strictly prohibited. This tincture is also not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women, children, individuals with dermatological, psychological, or liver conditions, or anyone untrained in the use of toxic plants.

The use of this tincture is the sole responsibility of the buyer.

L’Emporium Alchimique declines all responsibility in case of ingestion or improper use.
