Death, drugs and rock and roll (well a rolling rock anyway).
Today I give a nod to a signal shared by Francois Pretorius - on how psychedelics are being used for palliative care.
Of course this caught my eye because not only have we been tracking the de regulation and de-taboo-indication of mind altering drugs - and the general global move to the metaphysical - today was also the very day my business partner dion chang debuted his new incarnation as a Death Doula at our Death & Rebirth salon session in Johannesburg!
(If you missed it, never fear, Bethea Clayton (connected@fluxtrends.co.za will hook you up with a private gig if you like.)
But over to you : what are your thoughts on our metaphysical (or just plain morbid) turn in these darkly chaotic days?
Do you think psychedelics are for the living or the dying? (Or both? And why?)
And why does memento mori make us so uncomfortable - when it’s the one certainty in life (you know what I mean)?
