Sacred Settings : The Aesthetics of Psychedelic Sacred Spaces
Original language description
Drawing from a combination of direct observation and literature on the recreational and sacred use of psychedelic substances, this chapter will discuss the various aesthetic styles that are used in constructing a setting for psychedelic usage. The objective is to make a location enchanting to the psychedelic user. The purpose is to establish a location which combines a controlled environment with sensorially engaging features. A ritual setting will present features that will contextualize the psychedelic consumption within a religious framework. Subcultural movements founded on the spiritualization of chemistry draw inspiration both ritualistically and stylistically from many traditional or tribal systems of belief that centre around psychedelic substances or entheogens. This hybridization has given rise to a specific set of symbols and environments which are often found in psychedelic settings. Music and other artforms have also become part of the psychedelic setting, further enhancing the spiritual and religious overtones perceived in psychedelic-inspired festivals but also with the more solitary psychonaut.
