Dr. Ansgar Rougemont-Bücking  Psychedelics & the “Vampirocene”.
As the defining crisis of contemporary human consciousness, structural traumatic dissociation—a well-documented phenomenon in clinical neuroscience – propels our society through escalating cycles of violence. Tonight we shall explore how psychedelic experiences might foster the deepened consciousness that liberates humanity from the black magic of technocratic patriarchal manipulation—which intensifies division and control—and forge pathways toward a white magic of participation, compassion, and care.

Prof. Dr. David Luke:  Psychedelics and Exceptional Human Experience
Now that the psychedelic renaissance has found its way out of the birth canal and enters its childhood there is an ever-increasing need for psychedelic psychotherapy, integration, sitting, welfare and aftercare. While many therapists and counsellors are well equipped to provide containers and practice for processing the autobiographical material that arises, there a number of unique dimensions to the transpersonal nature of psychedelics that warrant special attention and treatment.

Christine Heidrich: Alchemistic Divination According to Ralph Metzner
Ralph Metzner (1936–2019) is considered a pioneer in the psychological, philosophical and intercultural study of consciousness. One of the founding fathers of psychedelic research to emerge out of Harvard in the 1960,  he developed his own method and training programme to use the expansion of consciousness for personal development. Christine Heidrich, an architect, cultural mediator, and author, was his student.
