About Us
Welcome to sol Alkhemi
We believe in the power of daily rituals to transform lives. Rooted in ancient wisdom and modern alchemy, we craft ceremonial cacao blends designed to cultivate deep presence, energy, and alignment. But our vision extends beyond the cup—we are a family-run organisation committed to infusing magick into everyday life and making a lasting, positive impact within our community and beyond.
Honouring the Roots of Cacao
Cacao is a sacred gift from the earth, carrying a deep lineage of wisdom, ceremony, and healing. We honour the Indigenous peoples of Mesoamerica and South America—the original custodians of cacao—who have worked with this plant medicine for thousands of years.
Through colonial trade, cacao made its way to the Philippines in the 17th century, where it became woven into our culture as tsokolate—a ritual of comfort, hospitality, and connection. From our lola’s hands to the farmers who cultivate cacao today, we honour this sacred lineage in every cup.

The Meaning Behind Sol Alkhemi
Our name, Sol Alkhemi, reflects the essence of our mission—transformation, illumination, and deep connection to ancient wisdom.
Sol
Sol means "Sun", the radiant force of life, energy, and enlightenment—a reminder that true transformation begins with light and awareness.
Alkhemi
Alkhemi comes from "Kemet" (KMT), meaning "the Black Land", the original name given to the fertile lands surrounding the Nile River—now part of modern-day Egypt. This land was the birthplace of alchemy, the Hermetic sciences, and the foundations of esoteric wisdom.
Alchemy, as preserved in the Emerald Tablets of Thoth, teaches the transmutation of the self—from limitation to liberation, from dense matter to spiritual gold. The Hermetic principles, passed down through the ages, reveal the universal laws of mentalism, correspondence, vibration, polarity, rhythm, cause and effect, and gender—the fundamental forces shaping both the material and spiritual worlds.
At Sol Alkhemi, we embrace this deeper understanding of alchemy—not just as the transformation of metals but as the alchemy of the soul. Cacao, much like the Great Work of alchemy, is a vessel for inner transmutation, helping us purify, expand, and step into our highest potential.
Cacao as a Path of Transformation
We see cacao as more than just a drink—it is a sacred tool for ritual, connection, and expansion. Inspired by the elements, spiritual alchemy, and the natural rhythms of life, we craft our cacao blends with intention, infusing them with adaptogenic herbs and botanicals to enhance clarity, energy, and emotional balance.
Through our work, we aspire to serve our community and contribute to a brighter, more enlightened world—one where conscious living, intention, and connection shape the future.
Whether you are looking to start your day with clarity, create space for reflection, or share a moment of connection with loved ones, our cacao is here to support you on your journey.
With gratitude to the Indigenous custodians of cacao, to the lands and people who continue to cultivate it, and to the traditions that inspire us.
Your ritual awaits.
Our Mission
Sol Alkhemi is a not for profit, humanitarian and educational association dedicated to preventing poverty, hunger and homelessness in vulnerable communities around the world.
All proceeds from the sales of our products are used to fund community projects that support the following causes:
Basic Needs
We aim to support marginalised individuals, families, and communities in meeting their fundamental human requirements, including access to nourishing food, clean water, secure shelter, and restful sleep. These are the essential elements for sustaining life, and for many people worldwide, fulfilling these basic needs is a challenge without assistance. Providing necessities such as a dependable source of meals, clean drinking water and a safe place to sleep can be the crucial first step that enables a person to concentrate on pursuing more advanced needs.
Education
We aim to empower disadvantaged individuals, families, and communities through education and programs. Our mission is to offer a pathway to stability and meaningful work, enabling individuals to take significant steps toward self-sufficiency. Education equips individuals with the skills and knowledge needed to provide for themselves, fostering financial stability and personal growth. Additionally, education empowers individuals to make substantial contributions to their community, creating lasting positive effects that ripple throughout society.
Our Values
At Sol Alkhemi, we understand that the best way to change our world for the better is to first start with making positive changes within. For this reason, everything we do is driven by the values that we live by. We are guided by the values of:
Ahimsa
At Sol Alkhemi, Ahimsa is more than a value; it's our guiding principle and a vital part of our organisational ethos. Rooted in the Vedas, Ahimsa embodies the profound concept of non-violence and compassion towards all living beings. Ahimsa shapes the very core of Sol Alkhemi, influencing our decision-making and actions. It underscores the importance of approaching every being with kindness and empathy, promoting peaceful conflict resolution, and minimising harm not just to individuals but also to animals and the environment. We hold Ahimsa dear as a guiding light for our organisation, recognising that its principles extend beyond individual interactions and encompass our collective responsibility to create a more harmonious and interconnected world. It's not just about avoiding harm; it's about actively working to promote peace and goodwill. Ahimsa is a fundamental value that defines Sol Alkhemi's mission toward building a more compassionate and considerate world for all. Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu. May all beings everywhere be happy and free, and may the thoughts, words, and actions of my own life contribute in some way to that happiness and to that freedom for all.
Compassion
At Sol Alkhemi, compassion is at the heart of everything we do. We define compassion as a fundamental human emotion and ethical value, one that embodies empathy, kindness, and an unwavering concern for the well-being of others. It's the ability to understand and share the feelings of those in both joy and suffering, along with a genuine desire to alleviate their pain or distress. For us, compassion is not merely a value but a way of life. It informs our actions, motivating us to extend kindness to every living being, irrespective of boundaries and perceived differences. This profound empathy serves as a powerful force for good, propelling us to perform acts of kindness, generosity, and selflessness. It's not limited to human interactions alone but extends to animals and the environment, reflecting our commitment to minimising harm and promoting the welfare of all living beings. In this spirit, we are dedicated to fostering a sense of interconnectedness and a more inclusive, harmonious world, driven by the profound value of compassion.
Collaboration
Collaboration is a fundamental value that shapes our approach at Sol Alkhemi. We firmly believe that working together towards a shared goal can yield extraordinary results. It's a commitment to uniting diverse talents, skills, and perspectives, recognising that when people pool their energy and time into a project, the outcome becomes greater than the sum of its parts. Collaboration is more than a mere working arrangement; it's a driving force that fuels innovation, fosters creativity, and propels us towards excellence. It allows us to tap into a collective wisdom, enriching our endeavours with fresh insights and novel solutions. By working hand in hand with others, we aim to create a positive, lasting impact that benefits our community and the world at large. At Sol Alkhemi, collaboration is not just a value; it's a way of achieving shared success, driving us to reach new heights and create a more connected, inclusive, and empowered future.
