| In [[plan_plant_planet|Plan/Plant/Planet]], [[Terence Mckenna]] popularised the idea that we can reconnect to the Gaian, planetary Other by embracing a plant-based model of human culture, facilitated in particular by psychoactive [[mushroom|mushrooms]] and the ubiquitous spread of [[mycelium_running|mycelium]]. Peculiar efforts at fungal communication have also been attempted in certain [[radio_mycelium|mycelial radio]] workshops conducted amidst the chaos of the FoAM studio. | In [[plan_plant_planet|Plan/Plant/Planet]], [[Terence Mckenna]] popularised the idea that we can reconnect to the Gaian, planetary Other by embracing a plant-based model of human culture, facilitated in particular by psychoactive [[mushroom|mushrooms]] and the ubiquitous spread of [[mycelium_running|mycelium]].

| "Reestablishing channels of direct communication with the planetary Other, the mind behind nature, through the use of hallucinogenic plants is the best hope for dissolving the steep walls of cultural inflexibility that appear to be channeling us toward true ruin. We need a new set of lenses to see our way into the world. When the medieval world shifted its worldview, secularized European society sought salvation in the revivifying of classical Greek and Roman approaches to law, philosophy, aesthetics, city planning, and agriculture. Our dilemma will cast us further back into time in search for models and answers." -- Terence McKenna | "Reestablishing channels of direct communication with the planetary Other, the mind behind nature, through the use of hallucinogenic plants is the best hope for dissolving the steep walls of cultural inflexibility that appear to be channeling us toward true ruin.

| The definitive resource on the interweaving of the [[Tarot]] stories with ethnobotany is the [[Tarot tutorial]], with supplementary [[tarot_notes|notes]] and addenda on [[card design]]. "What do plants and Tarot have in common? The answers are manifold - from looking at plants that can influence our mood to make us act as The Fool or The Empress, to plants having physical characteristics of The Star or The Hermit. The links can be made on the symbolic, iconographic, botanical, physiological, hermetic and many other levels. Plants are so embedded in our culture, that linking them to deep cultural archetypes in Tarot unveils the intricate relationships we have with the vegetal realm, extending far beyond mere food and fuel." | The definitive resource on the interweaving of the [[Tarot]] stories with ethnobotany is the [[parn:Tarot tutorial]], with supplementary [[tarot_notes|notes]] and addenda on [[card design]].
