Presented by ITAS in association with Pacifica Graduate Institute OVERVIEW Known by many names –
psychedelics, entheogens, sacred or plant medicines, allies, hallucinogens – the
substances opening the psyche to the depths of the personal and collective
unconscious are once again in the news in the midst of what has been called a
“psychedelics renaissance.” Thousands of Westerners journey every year to the
Amazon basin or Central America in search of spiritual awakening with
Ayahuasca or San Pedro, while as many underground groups gather in cities
around the world for sacred ceremony with these and other medicines.
Individual exploration of psychedelics has not ceased with the passing of the
1960s and appears to be growing. Meanwhile, respected researchers at
prominent universities and research facilities are once again demonstrating
the value of substances such as psilocybin, MDMA, and other psychedelics in
healing from trauma, addiction, anxiety, and depression – and in finding
comfort and peace with terminal illness. This eight-week online
course places the contemporary exploration of psychedelics within the context
of depth psychology and the individual lifelong path of individuation.
Whether or not one has personal interest in experiencing psychedelics,
considering the power and particularities of these various substances
provides insight into the depths of the body-mind-spirit and the possibility
of connection to collective or universal realms. For those with an interest
in exploring psychedelics, the course will provide basic grounding in
theoretical frameworks, factors that impact experience, and best practices to
maximize safe journeys. Attention will be given to issues of cultural
misappropriation, ethics, shadow, and legalities, as well as the growing
study of the correlations between particular experiences in psychedelics and
the planetary placements in the experiencer’s natal and transit charts as
shown by archetypal astrology. Jay Dufrechou, PhD, took
a break from his law career in the mid-90s to follow his spiritual
experiences into the study of transpersonal psychology at the Institute of
Transpersonal Psychology (ITP), now via
