Ayahuasca Shaman

Is the recent children’s movie “The Spiderwick Chronicles” really a presentation of an ayahuasca experience? That is the conclusion drawn by Victoria Alexander, whose movie review appears online at The Hollywood News website.

Ms. Alexander says that she has been visiting the Amazon in Peru for more than seven years, and there she has been participating in ayahuasca ceremonies. She says The Spiderwick Chronicles is “the most accurate portrayal of an ayahuasca experience for public consumption dressed up as a children’s fairy tale.”

Ms. Alexander is going to be one of the speakers at the fourth annual International Amazonian Shamanism Conference: Magic Myths & Miracles” held in Iquitos, Peru this coming July 19 through 27, 2008. Details are online at http://www.soga-del-alma.org/ConferenceSite/.
