We’re thrilled to announce that Entheogenesis Australis: Journal 6 is now available for order. Spanning over 200 pages with full-colour illustrations, and packed with thought-provoking essays, in-depth research, and stunning psychedelic art, this journal is a true collector’s item.
This commemorative edition marks two decades of ethnobotanical research, community building, and cultural exploration in Australia and beyond. With over 20 contributions, the journal dives deep into the plants, people, and philosophies shaping our shared journey.
Drawing on Australia’s rich cultural and botanical heritage, Journal 6 highlights our native treasures like DMT-containing Acacia, the country's broader contribution to psychedelic history, and the grassroots origins of the Australian ethnobotanical community. It stands as a testament to the power of citizen science, showcasing decades of dedication from community researchers, activists, and enthusiasts alike.
Contributors include some of the most renowned and long-standing figures in Australian ethnobotany and psychedelic culture, alongside fresh voices and daring articles to captivate both newcomers and dedicated followers of psychedelic culture.
