They appear in many forms, as  gods, deities goddesses, ancestors, animals, spirits and mythic beings  offering companionship, protection and guidance through the unknown.\n\nIn **Death & The Psychopomp :  Myth & Archetypes** , Tree Carr takes us on a journey into the mythic, cultural and spiritual world of these extraordinary Threshold Walkers.\n\nFrom **Hermes and Charon** to ancestral traditions and otherworldly guides,  how different cultures have imagined the journey between life and death and what these ancient stories might still have to tell us today.\n\nRather than approaching death solely as an ending, this lecture invites us to consider the **threshold** : the space of transition, transformation and uncertainty.\n\nThis is a journey through **myth, archetype, psychology and spiritual imagination** , inviting us to consider what the figure of the psychopomp represents within our own lives.\n\n \n\n### ABOUT YOUR GUIDE\n\n![](https://r2.dandelion.events/2026/09/22/11/02/31/202ec47c-8ff1-4cc3-9726-70883ce81a0a/13932ff1-0b39-46f9-91bd-b61a5ccf8988.jpeg)\n\n**TREE CARR**\n\nTree is a published author, TEDx speaker, transpersonal psychology practitioner and Death Doula whose work explores dreams, death, altered states of consciousness, creativity and psychedelic integration.\n\nFor more than three decades, Tree has worked at the intersection of mysticism, psychology, storytelling and the arts, helping people navigate the liminal spaces of dreaming, transformation and meaning-making.\n\nShe is a graduate of Alef Trust’s programme in **Psychedelics, Altered States & Transpersonal Psychology** , and has undertaken further study at MetaIntegral Academy in California. She holds a Crossfields Institute Diploma in _The Living Well Dying Well Person-Centred Approach to Death & Dying_ and has studied ecology, spirituality, the paranormal, mediumship and creativity.\n\nTree teaches dreamwork, lucid dreaming, quantum dreaming and consciousness studies at the **College of Psychic Studies** in London. She has lectured and facilitated workshops for organisations and institutions including Tate Modern, the Freud Museum, the Barbican, Breaking Convention, the Psychedelic Society UK, the Royal College of Art and New York University.\n\nShe is the author of eleven publications spanning dreams, magic, death, culture, creativity and consciousness, including _Dreamwork_, _A Spell A Day_, _The Witch’s Cat Tarot_, _Accused! The Witch Trials of Britain_, _Technomancy_, _Into the Pines_ and _Re-Enchanting Death_.\n\nAs a **Death Doula** , Tree provides spiritual, emotional, existential and practical support around death and dying. As a **Transpersonal Dreaming Guide** , she works with dreams, symbolism, lucid dreaming and ritual. She also works as a **High Priestess Witch** , facilitating circles, ceremonies and ritual practices.\n\nHer work has taken her across the UK, Europe, Canada and the USA, and her writing and commentary have appeared in publications including _The Guardian_, _The New York Times_, _The Sunday Times_, _Stylist_, _VICE_, _Grazia_, _ES Magazine_ and Sky History.\n\n### Step across the threshold.\n\nCome curious. Come open-minded. Come ready to explore the ancient stories of those who have always stood at the boundary between worlds.\n\n**The session will be recorded, so if you can't attend live, you'll be able to catch up afterwards.**\n\nYou can read [our ticket terms and conditions](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ZSdrUX0V00eRRVd_brA3aKdIZYJ0307f5qk2icIuSdE/edit?tab=t.0) here. \n\n![](https://r2.dandelion.events/2026/09/22/18/41/52/0088c420-9d2e-45e5-9078-d0a3d4c8ba7b/504b7995-530d-42b6-a262-8e5d470def1f.jpeg)\n\n![](https://r2.dandelion.events/2026/09/22/18/42/01/624fa2d5-43e9-448a-8b70-ead2e2bc2295/348b50b2-53d9-441c-802e-c8c7274dab10.jpeg)",
