Philosopher's Propeller (賢者のプロペラ, Kenja no Puropera) is the eighth solo album by Susumu Hirasawa. It was inspired by Myanmarese alchemy and philosophy. Several song names come from Latin terms pertaining to the alchemical magnum opus. The anime film Millenium Actress features remixed versions of some of the album's songs.

The album has a similar sound to Technique of Relief; however, Hirasawa begins to mix falsetto with his normal voice (although this trend began with P-MODEL OR DIE in 1999).
