Santiago consults a gypsy woman to interpret the dream, and to his surprise, she tells him to go to Egypt. A strange, magical old man named Melchizedek, who claims to be the King of Salem, also tells Santiago that it is his Personal Legend to journey to the pyramids. Melchizedek convinces Santiago to sell his flock and set off to Tangier. When Santiago arrives in Tangier, a thief robs him, forcing him to find work with a local crystal merchant. The merchant teaches Santiago several lessons, and Santiago encourages the merchant to take risks with his business. The risks pay off, and he a rich man. Santiago continues pursuing his Personal Legend: to find treasure at the pyramids. He joins a caravan crossing the Sahara desert toward Egypt and meets an Englishman who is studying to become an alchemist. He learns a lot from the Englishman during the journey. For one, he learns that the secret of alchemy is written on a stone called the Emerald Tablet. The ultimate creation of alchemy is the Master Work, which consists of a solid called the Philosophers Stone that can turn lead to gold, and a liquid called the Elixir of Life that can cure all ills. Santiago learns the Englishman is traveling with the caravan to the Saharan oasis of Al-Fayoum, where a powerful, 200-year-old alchemist resides. They stay at Al-Fayoum to avoid increasingly violent tribal wars taking place in the desert. There, Santiago falls in love with Fatima, who lives at the oasis. The alchemist gets word of Santiago’s vision and invites Santiago on a trip into the desert, during which he teaches Santiago about the importance of listening to his heart and pursuing his Personal Legend. While the alchemist and Santiago continue through the desert, the alchemist shares much of his wisdom about the Soul of the World. Then Arab soldiers capture them. Then alchemist tells the soldiers that Santiago is a powerful alchemist who will turn into wind within three days. Santiago feels alarmed because he has no idea how to turn into the wind, and over the next three days he contemplates the desert. On the third day, he communicates with the wind and the sun and coaxes them to help him create a tremendous sandstorm. He prays to the Hand That Wrote All and at the height of the storm he disappears. He reappears on the other side of the camp, and the tribesmen, awed by the power of the storm and by Santiago’s ability, let him and the alchemist go free. The alchemist at Coptic monastery demonstrates his ability to turn lead into gold using the Philosopher’s Stone. He gives Santiago gold and sends him off. Santiago begins digging for the treasure at the foot of the pyramids, but two men accost him and beat him. Before leaving, one of the men tries to illustrate the worthlessness of dreams by telling Santiago about his own dream. It concerns a treasure buried in an abandoned church in Spain where a sycamore tree grows. The church is the same one in which Santiago had his original dream, and he finally understands where his treasure is. He returns to Spain to find a chest of jewels and gold buried under the tree and plans to return with it to Al-Fayoum, where he will reunite with Fatima, who awaits him. Ten inspiring messages from the book: 1. Fear is a bigger obstacle than the obstacle itself “Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams.” 2. What is “true” will always endure “If what one finds is made of pure matter, it will never spoil. And one can always come back. .” 3. Break the monotony “When each day is the same as the next, it’s because people fail to recognize the good things that happen in their lives every day that the sun rises.” 4. Embrace the present “Because I don’t live in either my past or my future. I’m interested only in the present. .” 5. Your success has a ripple effect “That’s what alchemists do. They show that, when we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better, too.” 6. Make the decision “When someone makes a decision, he is really diving into a strong current that will carry him to places he has never dreamed of when he first made the decision.” 7. Be unrealistic “I see the world in terms of what I would like to see happen, not what actually does.” 8. Keep getting back up “The secret of life, though, is to fall seven times and to get up eight times.” 9. Focus on your own journey “If someone isn’t what others want them to be, the others become angry. .” 10. Always take action “There is only one way to learn. It’s through action.”
