The process or act of flowing or becoming fluid; the state of being in flux or constant change.
From Latin 'fluxus' (flowing) + suffix '-ation' (forming nouns of action). The root 'flux' comes from Latin 'fluere' meaning 'to flow,' which also gives us fluid, fluent, and influence.
Medieval alchemists used 'fluxation' to describe how metals could melt and flow into new forms—they believed this fluidity was key to transmutation, connecting chemistry, metallurgy, and philosophy in one word.
