In a world where “expanded consciousness” has become trendy, it’s easy to assume the fastest way to enlightenment is through plant medicine and ceremonial substances.
But in the lineage of hermetics and the Mysteries—and within the sacred teachings of Kabbalah—true power isn’t taken. It’s cultivated within yourself without the need for plants.
We honor all traditions that use medicine in their rightful cultural context.
But today, much of what’s called ceremony has been stripped from its roots and rebranded as a spiritual shortcut to consciousness. And let’s be real, it does produce Light.
This is why it feels so good and why many go to it again and again. However, it’s often Light without restriction, without filter and can easily become a codependent relationship in seeking the Divine within.
What’s often left out of the conversation is that sacred medicine was never meant to be a lifestyle—it was meant to be a moment of awakening.
When ceremonies are repeated again and again and again for years, they stop being sacred and start becoming dependency.
If we need the medicine to feel connected, we’ve given our power and authority away to the very thing that was meant to set us free.
In Kabbalah, Light is revealed through structure and discipline. It’s one of the tools we learn and teach in the hermetic lineage to produce a profound spiritual experience.
Through these teachings and rituals and alchemical process and awakening, we learn to hold more Light through our consistency on the path.
It’s not glamorous, but it’s real and based on thousands of years of lineage-based teachings.
And it’s sustainable within YOU.
When people turn to plant medicine as a fix for unhealed trauma or addiction, they may find temporary relief—but rarely integration.
The medicine opens doors and often pokes holes in the aura, but it doesn’t teach how to walk through life after the profound experience of the medicine.
A spiritual training—one that includes initiation, reflection, and accountability—can do that safely.
At Becoming Ceremony, we don’t chase peak experiences. We believe YOU are the Ceremony already. Our job is to help facilitate that without ever becoming codependent on others or on plants.
We teach how to live as Light—every day, in your relationships, your work, and your inner world.
Empowerment often means taking full responsibility for energy.
Some questions that are useful:
Ceremony, when approached properly, can be a bridge to deeper self-awareness.
But when used as an escape, it becomes another addiction dressed as awakening.
The hermetic and Kabbalistic path invites you to return to direct connection—without substances, without dependency.
Because the most sacred medicine is the Light that already lives within you.
