A detailed guide to the theory and power behind psychomagic

• Explains the theoretical basis behind psychomagic, Jodorowsky’s shamanic healing technique

• Details the author’s technique of “psychotrance” to access his subconscious mind to discover the most suitable psychomagic remedy

• Shares passionate correspondence between Jodorowsky and patients and admirers who have successfully used psychomagic methods for personal healing

Through films, books, comics, and art spanning seven decades, legendary filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky has offered his singular surrealistic perspective on the fundamentally dreamlike nature of reality. This perspective also underlies his healing technique known as psychomagic, which uses the symbolism of the unconscious to understand and mend reality as if it were a dream.

In The Way of Imagination, the master offers a detailed exploration of the mechanisms by which psychomagic works to heal our most pressing emotional and spiritual wounds. He describes the initial stages of psychomagic’s development into a practice and how he crafted the first psychomagic prescriptions to speak directly to the subconscious through the language of dreams. Above all, Jodorowsky explains, psychomagic is a therapy of action, rather than one of words.

Sharing passionate correspondence between himself and patients and admirers in the form of 84 letters, the author demonstrates how people have successfully used psychomagic to make profound changes in their lives. He shares detailed accounts of how he uses Tarot readings to determine a diagnosis as well as how he uses a trance state—what he calls “psychotrance”—to access his subconscious mind to discover the most suitable psychomagic remedy.

Presenting a complete immersion in the techniques of psychotrance and psychomagic, this guide show how the dreamlike nature of reality can help us move forward on the path to healing.

Seventy years ago, Alejandro Jodorowsky came to Paris from his native Chile to rescue surrealism. He saw the magic in life and wanted others to do the same.
