About what you said concerning semen as the ingredient. Thinking about it now...
I can see auras, and so I know that during "those moments" energy is radiating off the genitals like crazy. Which would lead me to assume that the semen must also be full of energy.
There are 2 things we want from the ingredient. The salt and the water. Would semen produce this salt? Probably. Would it be as good as the salt from the urine? Maybe, but I would think not, since the urine is more undetermined and filtered.
But the water is a different story, and this is where the active principle lies. It would make sense for there to be more life-energy in the semen.
So perhaps it would be more efficient to use the salt from the urine and then the water from the semen. Perhaps.
My main problem with this is that it was not mentioned by the alchemists. I have tried various methods of my own invention (urea, phosphorus, etc.) which I thought sound like it would work, but got nowhere. Whereas when I stick to what the alchemists say, it all works as they say it should. So I've been put off trying to come up with my own theories, and more intent on following the exact instructions by the Sages, which we have to remember are some of the most intelligent people who ever lived. And they didn't mention semen as far as I know, which is why I'm skeptical of it.
Concerning spiritual alchemy... like I said, I don't think alchemy is about spirituality. At least, I've never read anything by the alchemists that was to be interpreted spiritually (maybe theologically, but not spiritually). There are books which talk about spiritualism, but I don't see how this connects to alchemy. Alchemy is about making the Stone. So it's a different subject, no?
If it didn't work I'd expect more of them to have been open about it because Semen is one of the first things I would have thought about if I was begining the work for myself
Much like how you came to the conclusion that the Philosophical Mercury was Urine, semen or menstrum also seem to fit the bill.
The conjuncion of Urine and Semen is interesting though from the aspect that it's a combination of Life and Death used to produce the powder and so it could have a greater efficiency.
The problem is how much semen would be needed because if we're talking liters I'm going to need a bucket and a couple of weeks here.
Hermes, who's considered the father of Alchemy states again and again that this is a mental art and as the Alchemist perfects the tincture he also perfects himself.
So the stone may be the manifestation of living energy made material but the work the Alchemist undertakes also begins to purify and convert the lead of ignorance into the gold of spiritual knowing as well as the metallurgical work at hand.
could the "philosophers stone" be used to change ones appearance? could it be used to combine outside dna into your current dna; therefore changing your "self"? Could the stone be used to "impregnate" a virgin? could the stone be the key to "reincarnation"?
The making of the stone is just a method in the proses of making you believe in what you are doing.
Within us we do not have the currents available in our present state to access the kind of energy used in such a transmutation. It would destroy us if we were exposed to it without preparation. The Philosophers stone and the practices that go along with it are like step up and step down transformers that allow us to take in an element that is capable of dealing with a larger percentage of the energy available and allows us to use it.
So in a very trite way this is like the Matrix, we're all Neo and if we say "No" the bullets will stop in mid-air. The reality of it is we are not of the right constituency to be able to affect such a dramatic change within our environment no matter how much you believe it is an illusion. Therefore the bullets won't stop.
I've heard this over and over, that people need to be trained for the energy. Is it really true though? You can certainly give a high concentration of the Stone to any old person and it will in no way harm them, however ignorant they may be.
I would be very careful with that. I'm commenting only on the dosage part of this. From what I have read the proper dosage to ingest is a diluted 1 or 2 drops of the Stone. There were warnings of too high a dose "firing the body" and being fatal especially after multiplying the quality. Much testing on dosage would be recommended. I would first test to see if it would actually work for turning lead into gold. Then, if it did, I would test it on mice/rats at very low dose and move up from there to larger animals. I would not recommend you just eat a chunk.

Sorry your wrong on that front, in the transformation proses there is no power required to change anything, it's only your perception that needs to change and that requires no power at all. Don't you see it has nothing to do with power for each proton has the power to be anything in this reality, that you see it to be.
It has nothing to do with power that is the misconception of this reality, there is no power required to change anything it all comes from your mind that is the only requirement. Don't you see that if you think it's not possible that is all it takes for it to not happen. The protons just conform to that reality, no energy is required to change anything as long as you keep believing what you believe. All of reality begins with you and only you no one can live you reality. So if that is the case, then all things in your reality is created by you already. No power needed, don't you get it, it has nothing to do with what is out there but only what is in side you, nothing more nothing less.
If you believe you need more power than that is what is required, don't you see you have just set your own limits as to what you can do, all because you don't understand what your doing.
fine look up Matrix Energetics and see for your self that the only thing that is needed is only your perception to change, you are a limited by what you think your limited to only because you think that your limited to that thought because you think you live in a limited reality because you think in universe that is ruled by rules that are limited only by what you think you know. So in a way you are limiting your self and the only one that can change that is you. And only you for you are the center of your reality, but if you want to give that up to others and there beliefs so be it, for you are only doing it to your self and you may learn that or not.
When the Philosophers speak of gold and silver, from which they extract their matter, are we to suppose that they refer to the vulgar gold and silver? A. By no means; vulgar silver and gold are dead, while those of the Philosophers are full of life"
Alphabetical languages are primitive because the words only usually relate to one side of a concept at a time. As a race progresses and concepts form into definite ideas people need more suitable forms of expression for language.
Heiroglyphs do not contain a single idea attached to a word, they're actually a complex network of ideas brought together under a specific symbol so that by reading you actually experience the concepts attached to the symbol. This is something similar to what successful magicians practice today.
Again this is just my pet theory but judging by our current generations dabbling in Heiroglyphs such as smiley faces, emotocons and so on it seems that we're transitioning away from an alphabetical language into a heiroglyphic one. This is similar to the way technical languages work today.
