TONIGHT! The Discotheque at the End of the Universe!

Portland's #1 Pop Shamanism ritual magic dance party!

The Discotheque at the End of the Universe is participatory theater about a psychedelic religion of the science fictional future.

Join us Thursday, February 2nd, as we use jams from David Bowie, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Neutral Milk Hotel, and the Go-Gos to perform collective shadow work, access the energy of the God/dess, and save the world.

Come see what happens when pop culture and entheogenic shamanism collide at atom-smashing speed. You think you know weird? WE'LL SHOW YOU WEIRD!

A New Way to Use Psychedelics

I want to tell you about my approach to working with psychedelics, because I think I'm breaking new ground. If you or someone you know is working along similar lines, get in touch. I want to talk with you. For now, at least, I'm calling this approach "phonomancy," meaning "divination via sound." If you're a recreational user, it likely won't appeal to you. If you're someone who's dipping your toe in the psychedelic water via microdosing, or someone who is primarily interested in using psychedelics to treat trauma, depression, or addiction issues, you might find the practice I'm going to describe off-putting or even alarming. That's because phonomancy is not therapeutic--it's augmentative. It's a program for developing supranormal emotional and spiritual capacities via psychological hormesis. Some risk, pain, and fear are part of the process. But that's the price of transformation. THE ORIGINAL TWO "S...

Book Review: Where Some Holy Spectacle Lies as a Post-Jungian Manual of Mastery

Jung’s Liber Novus , Where Some Holy Spectacle Lies can be understood as both a parallel and a critique. Like Jung’s Red Book, it records a sustained, high-risk confrontation with the Unconscious over roughly a decade. Unlike Jung, however, Manseau does not stop at dialogue, interpretation, or symbolic accommodation. He proceeds toward methodological mastery .

But Jung famously refused to provide techniques for inducing similar encounters in others. His confrontation remained singular, dangerous, and fundamentally unrepeatable. Manseau’s project begins where Jung stopped. Across ten years, Where Some Holy Spectacle Lies documents the progressive refinement of a praxis that moves through distinct stages: visionar...

There it is. Confirmation at the highest level. This is all real. It’s all happening. Even though right at this minute (in the immediate aftermath) I can feel uncertainty and fear pushing their weight against this belief. My belief that this is all real has been the key. Really real, where I can really commit. Put my life into it. And I’ve done that! I did it by quitting my job. And the result…was a beyond gorgeous celestial vision of the gods. Of Ma and Pa, and all their Kids, looming over me as these titanic statues in this cavern through which I being brought, on my back, on a boat, on a river, and I’m watching these vaulted architectures pass by overhead. And the biggest one of all is the one with all of them. The Family. Ma and Pa and the Kids. Represented in this vast and ...
