What we’re about
Welcome to the Psychedelic Social & Networking Meetup group. We are a volunteer-run group. We strive to build community by organizing and hosting interactive events in a safe space for members to connect once a month. We focus on encouraging knowledge-sharing, safety and capacity-building in the rapidly developing psychedelic space. These events are open and welcoming, whether you are psychedelic-curious, an experienced psychonaut, and everyone in between.

- New Moon Ceremony of Gratitude and BeautyPrivate Residence , Calgary, ABCAD 25.00
Despacho Offering of Gratitude and Beauty
Come join us for a special event where we gather to express our gratitude and create a beautiful Despacho Offering, aligned with the lunar energies.
At all despacho ceremonies, we focus on giving thanks for all that we have, harness the power of the moon to release that which no longer serves us, and open the way for even more love, goodness, and abundance to come our way by getting clear about our intentions.
What is a Despacho?
A Despacho (from the Spanish, meaning to dispatch) is a beautiful ceremony of making a mandala-like offering from natural materials. Coming together in community and ritually assembling flowers, seeds and other objects is an Andean practice of gratitude and sacred reciprocity (ayni) that helps align us to the cycles of the earth, connect with our own hearts, and strengthen our connections to all of creation. Making these offerings can help us restore love, balance, and harmony in our own lives, and in our relationship with Mother Earth and all the beings of nature. After the creation of the despacho, it is bundled up and ritually released into a sacred fire.
These teachings originate from our apprenticeship with the Pachakuti Mesa Tradition through The Heart of the Healer Shamanic Mystery School and Visionary Hearts.
