  • I have found them, var guessowi, but have never been brave enough to experiment with them. Like datura. My foraging skills are pretty B+ (I do pretty well for the species of plants and fungi I am familiar with) so it’s no specimen shortage, guess I’m just a scared nerd :( I don’t deserve the name I chose. I was arrogant :(

    Edit: for real though, they are some of the most fun to find. They are super charismatic and seem to call you over to look at them. It’s no wonder at all why people find them interesting. Always beautiful but I just take a picture and leave them alone. Check on the spot later.


  • There’s a really big problem with this hypothesis though, you can’t just pop some A. muscaria in your mouth and have a powerful “trip”
    Unlike P cubensis , they don’t contain the alkaloids psilocin or psilocybin but instead they contain ibotenic acid and muscimol, both of which, unlike the first two alkaloids, are toxic. There is still a lot of debate on what the actual components of the brew or what it would’ve been or how the mushroom was prepared, not to say that it can’t be prepared in a way to achieve the desired results, only that we have not figured it out yet. The same that we have not figured out what soma was or what was taken in Eleusis at the temple of Dimitr(I recommend the book “the immortality key” on that particular subject. Great audiobook available too)
