EDITOR NOTE:HOPEFULLY THIS IS AMMUNITION FOR THE SPIRITUAL WARRIORS,USE IT WISELY
This is a list of entheogens - which, according to Wikipedia are: in the strictest sense, psychoactive substances used in a religious or shamanic context. Plants and herbs have been used for many centuries in religious contexts due to their mind altering nature. In recent times many have been taken up by the “casual drug user” as a cheap alternative to chemical based drugs.
If you have had any experiences with the following plants, be sure to tell us about it in the comments - we are always interested in hearing about our readers experiences in areas like this. So, onward,
10 ‘Heavenly Blue’ Morning GloryIpomoea tricolor
Active Constituents: Ergoline alkaloids
This is a species of morning glory native to the New World tropics, and widely cultivated and naturalized elsewhere.
The seeds have been used for centuries by many Mexican Native American cultures as an hallucinogen; they were known to the Aztecs as ‘tlitliltzin’, the Nahuatl word for “black”. Their traditional use by Mexican Native Americans was first discovered in 1941, brought to light in a report documenting use going back to Aztec times. It was reported in 1960 that the seeds of Ipomoea tricolor were used as sacraments by certain Zapotecs, sometimes in conjunction with the seeds of Rivea corymbosa, another species which has a similar chemical composition. Hallucinations are the predominant effect after ingesting morning glory seeds. Vivid visual and tactile hallucinations, as well as increased awareness of colors have been described.
