CLASS RECORDING • Toadstools & the Taboo :: How 🍄's Teach Us About Sex, Death, and Immortality

Slimy, sticky, phallic, and funky – mushrooms find themselves adored & feared for the same reasons- in their morphology, chemistry, and personalities, fungi remind us of the unified goal to create and surrender in an unending undulation of life, shapeshifting between birth, death, human and humus for the sake of doing it over and over and over again.

Join us for a multi-disciplinary cypher, exploring the Psilocybe species, Amanita muscaria, candy cap (Lactarius spp.), turkey tail (Trametes versicolor, reishi (Ganoderma spp.), ergot (Claviceps purpurea), etc., and how we can flip the script from taking mushrooms to letting the mushrooms take us.

In this class, we will explore:
• Aphrodesiac Ethnnomycology
• Lessons in Decay – Savoring Saprophytic Fungi
• The Phallus and the Mushroom Cloud – On Pluralism & Patterns
• The Unseen Matter – Mother Mycelium
• Fermentation, Alchemy and Immortality
