Intro to the Poison Path & The Occult Properties of Poison Class and Book Signing:
This course is intended to provide a basic foundation for people interested in beginning their exploration of the Poison Path. Nothing screams witchcraft more than a seething brew of
poisonous plants. They are mysterious, seductive and in many cases psychoactive, but also potentially deadly. So why work with poisonous plants at all?
In this crash course, author and herbalist Coby Michael, will be explaining the what, why and how of the Poison Path. Attendees will learn all of the most frequently used terminology The
correct vocabulary will aid immensely in one’s own studies and students can expect to be able to define terms like; entheogen, phyto-gnosis, pharmacognosy, ethnobotany, and alkaloid. In
addition to defining these key concepts we will look at how they come to play in the Poison Path.
One of the most fascinating things about the Poison Path is the plants! These are some of the most interesting, terrifying and magical plants you will ever meet, and we will be looking at some
of the most infamous. Students will learn each plant’s physical characteristics, how they have been used historically and their medicinal, magical and consciousness altering effects.
Finally we will look at how this is all put into practice, and discuss some of the different options for working with poisonous plants, and where to get started. We will also discuss the importance of safety and dispel some of the misconceptions surrounding this practice. Attendees will also be provided with a list of resources for further reading, as well as sourcing seeds and plants to grow at home.
Practitioners of the Poison Path seek out those plants that have been ostracized or forgotten by most people. The Poison Path is the way of the occultist and the witch, and while there are
powerful physical forces at play, including a plant’s toxic and visionary effects, the focus for the Poison Path is on the esoteric applications for these potent forces. In short it is the study and
application of poisonous, baneful, invasive, and demonized plants for their occult virtues and to connect with them as familiar spirits.
In this presentation attendees will learn how our understanding of “poison” has evolved over time starting in the ancient world. We will explore the often blurred line between poison, magic
and medicine that has been part of the understanding of traditional medicine for millennia. This is to develop a deeper understanding of occult toxicology and its transmutational power. In this presentation Coby will discuss the important role that poison plays in occultism, alchemy and spiritual practice; including our interaction with spiritual forces and the energy of our own environments. Poison is as much a physical substance as it is an archetypal metaphor, and through understanding the important role it has played in human evolution attendees will learn how to protect against spiritual toxins, transmute personal poisons, and harness this power for its healing properties and unique magic. We will explore the connection between poison and witchcraft and how it relates to modern magical practice.
