Psychomanteum

A psychomanteum is a specially designed, dimly lit space used to facilitate communication with spirits or the subconscious. It typically involves a mirror or reflective surface, along with controlled lighting and quiet ambiance, to induce a meditative or trance-like state. The goal is to create an environment conducive to inner reflection, spiritual connection, or potential glimpses into the unknown. Historically rooted in attempts to contact the dead, the psychomanteum relies on altered states of consciousness to access insights beyond everyday awareness, combining psychology, mysticism, and ritual in a controlled setting.
