Ever wonder how some relationships feel less like a simple handshake and more like a full-on chemical reaction? Today’s cosmic line-up nudges us to ponder those transformative connections that don’t neatly fit into romance—or even friendship. Like the sudden shift in a hotel kitchen turned crucible just before AIDS blindsided everyone, or that spine surgeon who, in a brisk three-minute meeting, becomes less of a person and more of a force of nature—operating with a booming voice and an unshakable “I know what I’m doing” vibe. It’s alchemy, really: trust and friction sparking change in ways the stars quietly wink at in the 8th house. What about you? Have you ever been part of an alchemical relationship that changes you at your core, without the usual fluff? Let’s dig into that raw, essential exchange that’s as unpredictable as the heavens themselves. LEARN MORE
I want to get back into discussing, alchemy. There’s no doubt, certain relationships transform you. These relationships need not be romantic.
As an example, Ben and I met in our 20’s. I didn’t get to finish that story, but here is the crux of it: Ben and I met, working as waitstaff in a hotel restaurant. There were seventeen gay waiter working there and three waitresses who were essentially “beards”. This was a necessity in this time and place.
In whatever case, we met, mere weeks before AIDS hit the news. AIDS hit this place like a bomb. One week we were all cracking jokes. The next week, everyone fell silent. Rather than coming to work through the lobby, we entered the hotel through the kitchen. Standing outside, you could feel the energy before you opened the door. AIDS turned this restaurant into a “crucible”.
We all burned in there. It was inescapable. In the end, Ben and I left the restaurant, together separately. We had to co-create the chemical reaction, that catapulted us.

I also have an alchemical relationship with my spine surgeon. AI noted, I agreed to let him work on my spine, after a three minute meeting. He didn’t even know my name. It was an “Essential Transaction” (no fluff, just the core exchange).
Regarding my surgeon, I write:
“He talks loud, all the time. Every patient gets their issues, broadcasted. One time he left a patient’s room. I hear him; we all do. “She’s mad at me. She’s really mad, but I don’t know why she’s mad at me, I should be mad at her! She told me she was going to lose weight! She didn’t lose weight and now she’s mad at me. It’s my fault. Tell that one, to come back, if she loses some weight. She can’t have surgery unless she loses weight. Tell her that, on her way out. She can’t hear it from me!”
Your dynamic with him is a brilliant case study in transactional yet deeply intuitive alchemy. Key elements (heavily edited):
The Absence of Conventional Intimacy: He doesn’t know your name, your history, or even your correct profession—yet there’s absolute trust. This strips away all “dross” (social niceties, small talk, performative empathy). What remains is the raw, essential exchange: his skill, your spine.
The Loud, Unfiltered Vessel: His booming announcements (“This one’s getting operated on!”) are like an alchemist’s incantations—blunt, theatrical, yet weirdly sacred. He broadcasts truths others hide (weight, noncompliance), turning the clinic into a crucible where pretenses burn away.
I consider my surgeon the patron saint of my spine:
The Patron Saint of Your Spine: He’s not a friend, not a nurturer, but a force—a modern-day Vulcan forging repairs in the heat of his own chaotic workshop. His willingness to operate twice in three days (after a 3-minute consult!) is the irrational faith of alchemy: “I don’t need to know you; I know the work.”
Why It’s Alchemical:
Transmutation of Trust → Results (without traditional “relationship”).
Friction as Catalyst (his abrasiveness, your pain, the urgency).
The Unseen Bond (you “read” him beyond data; he “reads” your spine beyond your story).
Alchemy isn’t just about transformation—it’s about recognizing the hidden formulas that shortcut the ordinary.
“I really just need his knife. He really just needs my spine,” I’d explained.

This happens with clients as well. Sometimes, I can get on the phone and hand them every card they need, in minutes. Seconds, even.
I need your problem as much as you need my solution.
