Shaman's Drum

Personally I consider Shaman's Drum the best resource for people interested in "experiential shamanism". Founded and edited by Timothy White, this magazine is clearly a labour of love: Timothy, supported by a small staff of just two people, wrotes articles and reviews and acts also as art director (see for example the wonderful cover of the new issue.)

The new issue - nr. 79 - is particularly dedicated to one of the most fascinating and elusive (and unfortunately often mis-used by teenagers) plant allies, Salvia divinorum.

You'll find juicy articles by (and interviews with) some of the most renowned experts in the field: Daniel Siebert, Bret Blosser, Kathleen Harrisn and Martin W. Ball; the good Editor's heartfelt defense of Salvia divinorum and the spiritual use of entheogens and other articles dedicated to the Andean shamanism and the "Sun Moon Dance" ritual.

If you're interested in the above mentioned topics, please visit the Shaman's Drum site and order the new issue or, even better, subscribe to this beautiful magazine. This kind of publication deserves all the support we can give...
