Dreaming with Amanita

a 3 session intensive

About the Intensive

In this online intensive we’re diving in deep with Amanita Muscaria. This incredible mushroom has a huge wealth of medicine. She has been demonised for a long time, and it’s time for us to reclaim the medicine she offers and we need. Amanita truly is - in many ways - the medicine for our times.

This intensive is designed in a way that you can leave these three days with a clear taste of Amanita’s medicine, feeling confident in how to further cultivate your relationship with her, as well as in how to safely steward her medicine to your communities should you feel called to.

Course Curriculum

  • In our first gathering on the eve after the Winter Solstice, we are going to be sharing sacred space with the Red Capped lady Amanita as we enter into a trance journey to encounter and learn from her spirit, directly.

    We will be asking her for a vision for the upcoming year, backed and blessed by our well ancestors.

  • In this session we’re diving in with the rich tapestry of folklore in the Nordic, Germanic, Celtic and Slavic traditions around Amanita Muscaria and the Winter Solstice. Yes - we’ll also talk about what she has to do with Christmas and Santa Claus, and much more!

  • Amanita Muscaria holds profound and incredibly practical medicine for ourselves and our communities. On our third call we get practical and you will learn many ways in which you can work directly with the Red Caps of Amanita so that you can leave this intensive with a stocked Amanita Apothecary.
