Psacred Passage Ceremony 

Psanctuary is a 508(c)(1)(A) faith-based Constitutional Church that believes in the sacramental consumption of sacred mushrooms to bring individuals closer to what many refer to as God, or pure consciousness. This non-dogmatic, non-hierarchical organization values family, community, faith, sincerity, compassion, curiosity, and individual liberty.

The Psacred Passage Sacrament Ceremony is a cornerstone program of Psanctuary, designed for individuals facing a life-threatening illness. It combines the sacramental use of sacred mushrooms with comprehensive preparation and integration support administered by trained ministers to facilitate profound spiritual and emotional experiences.

Our sacrament is cultivated with utmost reverence and a commitment to safety by trusted cultivators trained through Psanctuary. While we prioritize safety throughout the process, and sacred mushrooms are generally considered safe, as a spiritual organization, we focus on the sacramental aspect and are not equipped to advise on specific individual medical conditions. Participants are encouraged to consult with their healthcare providers regarding personal health considerations.

Psanctuary believes in the transformative power of sacred mushrooms to offer profound spiritual insights and emotional healing, particularly valuable during the final stages of life. This philosophy is rooted in the belief that these sacraments can help individuals confront and meditate on death, facilitating a peaceful and insightful transition.

Yes. While Psanctuary welcomes individuals from all faith traditions, membership is required to participate in ceremonies. This requirement ensures compliance with laws governing the use of sacred mushrooms, aligning with Psanctuary's commitment to providing safe and legal sacrament experiences.

A Psacred Passage ceremony involves deep emotional exploration. The answer depends on too many factors to list briefly and is a very personal decision.

To help gauge readiness, many find attending our weekly Sunday services and bi-monthly Psacred Passage support group meetings enlightening.

These gatherings offer a glimpse into the community's spirit and the transformative journey ahead. Non-members are welcome, with links available on our events calendar. This engagement can be a meaningful step in evaluating the fit for you or your loved one.

Individuals experiencing significant cognitive decline, such as those with dementia or Alzheimer's, may not be suitable candidates. Additionally, due to known adverse reactions, we cannot accommodate those on lithium-based medications. We approach these guidelines with compassion and understanding, prioritizing the safety and well-being of all participants.

The best time for a ceremony is determined through a careful intake process, where we'll discuss your current medications and treatment regimens. A minister will work with you to identify the most suitable time frame for the ceremony, considering your unique medical and treatment context. This collaborative approach helps to ensure the scheduling aligns with creating a space conducive to a meaningful and safe experience.

The choice of location is made with careful consideration of several factors, including the tranquility of the environment and accessibility to facilities like washrooms. These aspects are discussed collaboratively to ensure the setting is optimal. While a home may be suitable in some cases, at other times, alternative locations might better support the serene and supportive atmosphere essential for the ceremony.

Yes, preparatory sessions are available. Ministers engage with participants multiple times before the ceremony to build rapport and help prepare them for the experience. While the profound nature of the ceremony might make it challenging to fully comprehend in advance, these discussions aim to provide as much clarity and preparation as possible, ensuring participants feel supported and informed.

Our approach is all about making sure you feel at ease and supported. We take the time to understand your needs and preferences, from health considerations to the little things that bring you comfort, like your favorite cozy blanket or pillow. It's all about creating a warm, welcoming space that feels just right for your ceremony.

During the ceremony, the presence of a trusted individual, typically a family member or caregiver, is essential alongside the minister. This person should be well-acquainted with medications and ready to assist with physical needs. We provide a preparatory course to equip them for their role. Generally, this individual will stay close by, ensuring a supportive presence without necessarily being in the same room throughout the ceremony.

The minister typically arrives an hour early to prepare the space and sacrament. The most profound part of the experience often begins within the first hour after ingesting the sacrament and can last about 2-4 hours, though this can vary. Including preparation and a period for initial integration afterward, the minister is usually present for around 7-8 hours.

The recommended dosage is personalized, based on the intake process where we learn about your intentions, previous experiences, and current health. This information guides the ministry in suggesting an appropriate dosage for a meaningful journey, typically within the range of 3-5 grams. This is intended to facilitate a profound experience, aligned with your readiness and needs.

The ceremony marks a pivotal moment, yet the journey of healing and growth continues well beyond. Emphasizing the importance of integration, the minister will connect with you for personal sessions in the initial weeks. We strongly encourage deepening this integration by engaging with our community through regular services and activities. Our Psacred Passage support group, meeting bi-monthly, offers a supportive space to share and evolve with others on similar paths.

Supporting a loved one after the ceremony involves authentic connection and unconditional care, acknowledging the unique and deeply personal nature of their integration journey. Encouraging participation in Psanctuary’s community events can also be beneficial, as communal engagement offers continued support and a shared space for healing. Psanctuary prioritizes creating opportunities for individuals and their families to navigate this path together.

We staunchly respect each individual's right to choose their path, understanding that opposition from close ones can deeply impact the experience and ongoing integration. To navigate this, we encourage open dialogues to explore their concerns, potentially through group discussions involving the minister. Inviting family members to Psacred Passage support groups and other activities within Psanctuary may also help in bridging understanding and respecting individual autonomy.

Yes, for those interested in Psacred Passage practices, the journey begins with the foundational Myself Minister and Friends and Family Minister programs, setting the stage for further training. All our training programs, including these initial stages, continually evolve to incorporate deep experiential learning. This approach ensures a comprehensive understanding of the nuances involved in working with the sacrament, aiming to cultivate environments that facilitate meaningful experiences for participants.
