THE CASTALIA FOUNDATION PSYCHEDELIC ARCHIVE

The Haight Ashbury Tribune

The fierce winds of psychedelic rebellion in the 60s blew a diasporama of underground publishing-houses across the United States, and beyond. Armed with bright inks and typewriters, freedom-fighters fought the decrepit corporate press.

The Southern California Oracle is harder to track down than its cousin, The San Francisco City Oracle. If you — or someone you know — has old copies of The Southern California Oracle in a dusty box, get in touch with our archivists.

We'd love to provide readers with a full-collection of all psychedelic ephemera of the sixties, seventies and eighties. Got something of interest? We'll pay your digital-scanning costs, and credit you. Help preserve your psychedelic heritage.

The San Francisco Oracle

A fascinating article from Progressive Architecture (1966) exploring the use of psychedelics in the field of architecture. Several successful architects describe using LSD and mescaline to solve complex architectural challenges. Their clients' reactions? Delighted and impressed.

Lisa Bieberman worked in collaboration with our founder, Timothy Leary. Here, we republish her remarkable book on navigating difficult LSD sessions. The book is early precursor to LSD Zen, taking the reader through odd 'game' situations which may arise during a non-solo LSD session.

Start Your Own Religion is Tim Leary' essential guidebook to dropping-out: "Avoid conflict with the establishment. Avoid recruiting and rapid growth. Preserve clan harmony. Your clan must be limited to essence friends. The structure of your clan must be cellular." Vital reading for freedom-fighters.
