Are you interested in delving into the often-overlooked yet deeply impactful world of ancient African psychedelics and their historical and spiritual impact?

 

As the topic of psychedelics and plant medicine are gaining more attention, it's more important than ever to honor their roots and lineages including their vital role in ancient African traditions.

Psychedelic fungi and plants have been used by indigenous African people for personal, spiritual and community development for millennia. Although not often recognized, Africa has the oldest records and a rich history of using them not only for healing, but also for communicating with ancestral spirits, as divination tools and for navigating consciousness and the Entheogenic realms.

Join us on Wednesday, July 10th at 2pm Pacific Time for a complimentary Meet & Greet, where Isis Indriya, Founder of Academy of Oracle Arts will interview Darren Le Baron, as he gives us an introduction to the rich history of African psychedelics, the influence of his mycology and psychedelic research background, and why African psychedelic traditions are relevant in today's world.

Darren Le Baron is a renowned speaker, researcher, educator, and organic horticulturist, who passionately shares his wisdom to guide people worldwide in conscious psychedelic exploration, driven by his mission to enhance their transformative potential by incorporating in-depth research on African plant rituals.
