Pharmakeia φαρμακεια is the Greek word for pharmacy, which is the practice and making of medication and vitamins. It also refers to the making of spell-giving potions, or alchemical potions (or elixirs) believed to have transforming powers, such as the power to extend life, boost energy, or enhance the mind. It also refers to any substance used to poison someone, to prevent or treat disease (or, for that matter, to cause it), or to gain control of someone's behavior.
Pharmakeia and its related word forms pharmakeus, pharmakon, pharmakos and pharmakoi are the words from which we get the modern English words pharmacy, pharmaceutics, pharmaceutical, pharmacist, pharmacopia, pharmacology, pharmaceuticalist and pharmaceuticalism.
The modern transliteration of pharmakeia is pharmacia. Pharmakeia and its related forms appear several times in the New Testament, including the Epistle to the Galatians and the Book of Revelation. It is frequently translated as "witchcraft" or "sorcery".
Magical pharmacia substances or potions often bind someone under a spell by evocation with and without uttered word formulas. Cosmetics, lotions and perfumes were also made by practitioners of pharmaceuticalism and by extension any lab made substance or chemical falls in the realm of pharmakeia or pharmacia. In modern times petrochemicals are used to create chemical reactions with plants to create pharmaceutical substances.
One well known example is the street drug cocaine, where coca leaves are soaked in gasoline and sulfuric acid to produce the substance cocaine. Other pharmaceuticals are made solely from petrochemicals. Today people who practice organic farming and gardening are those who reject the form of pharmakeia using chemicals which is turning to witchcraft for the success of their crops.
Seriously?
The term witchcraft may sound nuts here, but there's some truth to this. When you pour these chemicals on your plants you are relying on a substance sold to you by someone else and you don't fully understand what's in it or what it does, but the damage it causes is 10 fold the benefit you think you are getting. Like a "spell" or "potion", it backfires on you and it's highly destructive in ways you may not have considered. When you reject the use of these things, you end up with a garden that only gets better year after year as nature is the best medicine, relying on safe permaculture practices can take more time at the beginning to get the results you want, but you'll end up only magnifying your success year after year with less and less effort. Meanwhile those who relied on their "potions" have to keep buying more and more and continue to do damage until they have all but killed the soil and can no longer grow a decent plant. Not to mention the act of poisoning your own body from ingesting the foods grown this way.
So you don't consider slow-release organic fertilizers and compost in this category?
Are you familiar with permaculture?
