Books and Resources: Eleusis and its Mysteries

Hi lovely humans,

as we are approaching the third cycle I wanted to share with you two amazing books I am reading about the Eleusinian Mysteries, the rites, the symbols, the myths, the artifacts and the substances :mushroom:.
:green_book:The Road to Eleusis UNVEILING THE SECRET OF THE MYSTERIES
By R. Gordon Wasson, Albert Hofmann and Carl A. P. Ruck
and
:closed_book:Sacred Mushrooms: Secrets of Eleusis
by Carl A.P. Ruck

They are fascinating, I thought I knew some things about the mysteries but honestly, I am mindblown about their cultural and ritual significance. I also found these books translated in Greek, while I was space scouting in Elefsina.

Do you have any other books, online resources, or even stories you would like to share? Feel free to do so in this Topic :upside_down_face:

Thanks for the tips, it’s given way more depth to the Mysteries and Summer School, even just to read the synopses! I ordered one so hopefully the Norwegian post (not famous for speed) doesn’t let me down and it arrives before the Summer School. I recently read Entangled Life by Merlin Sheldrake (on the mushroom/mycelium theme) and can highly recommend

Hello, those books looks so nice! By any chance someone has a PDF copy of any of these?

It’s a WeTransfer link with 1 week expiring date but I can re-upload :wink:

I’m reading Ruck right now! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: :mushroom: :eye: :amphora:
