Santa Fe Psychedelic Society - A discussion about mycology and potency 🍄

## Santa Fe Psychedelic Society: Gathering in Circle

An Invitation to Our November Community Meeting...

## About our next meeting:

Understanding Psychedelic Mushrooms in Practice
What’s in a Gram?: A conversation about potency and dosage

We’ve all learned from mushrooms in our own ways—through practice, study, experience, and care. In this session, we’ll look together at what’s actually inside a gram: how potency and alkaloid ratios shape experience, and how simple language can help us talk about dose with more clarity. The goal isn’t to claim answers, but to build shared understanding, ask better questions, and explore how thoughtful conversation can move this work—and the research that supports it—forward.

Independent armchair mycologist Gregory Evans has spent the past several years exploring the intersection between cultivation, chemistry, and experience within psilocybin-containing mushrooms. His work focuses on translating complex data—like potency testing and alkaloid ratios—into plain-language frameworks that help people understand what they’re actually working with. He emphasizes curiosity, clear communication, safe practice, and open-source collaboration in the evolving world of mycology.

REQUEST: Hey everyone! We're going to need a bigger location soon. Ideally, we will find a space willing to donate vs. rent. Please let me know if you have any connections or great ideas about a beautiful indoor venue that can hold 40+ people comfortably.

Hope to see you there,

The Santa Fe Psychedelic Society is a space of reverence, inquiry, and connection—a place to explore the transformative potential of psychedelic experiences in a grounded and welcoming community. Whether you’re newly curious or have walked the path of expanded states of consciousness for many years, you are invited to join us in circle.

Our vision is rooted in a deep commitment:
To promote the responsible and beneficial use of psychedelics,
To destigmatize these powerful tools for healing, insight, and creativity,
To educate the public with integrity, humility, and openness, and
To support the well-being and interconnectedness of our local community here in Santa Fe.

Our gatherings are intended to be inclusive, respectful spaces for shared wisdom, learning, and belonging. This is a movement of thoughtful engagement—one that honors both the mystery and the medicine.

*****If you or someone you know are ever having a challenging time during or following a psychedelic trip/journey, OR you're prepping for a psychedelic trip/journey and want some support... reach out to The Fireside Project. They're devoted to helping and harm reduction for psychedelic experiences.

## Our Guiding Values:

• Radical inclusivity—we welcome all bodies, backgrounds, beliefs, and experiences
• Integrity, consent, and relational care
• Honoring Indigenous wisdom and ancestral knowledge
• Ongoing integration as a spiritual practice
• Recognition that healing is personal, collective, and ecological

Whether you come with questions, lived experience, visionary stories, or quiet curiosity, your presence matters. Together we are remembering what it means to sit in sacred community, shaped by reverence, responsibility, and radical authenticity.

We gather not only to explore psychedelics, but to tend to the wider garden of transformation—of healing, truth-telling, reciprocity, joy, and belonging.
