I love mushrooms

"In the Hawaiian Islands, the high islands of Polynesia, the islands of Samoa,Tahiti, Rarotonga, and the Marquesas. They speak of a mushroom with peculiar properties; giving rise to tales of women who encounter this mushroom in the forest and fall into-ecstatic sexual fits of orgasmic proportion. Mamalo o Wahine, the mushroom that makes women go mad with desire!  Only when the gods are pleased will they bring forth this magical plant, and only if a woman leads a good and virtuous life will the gods reward her with this special treat just for her pleasure."

This blogger's upcoming documentary "Can Mushrooms Save the Planet" looks like it's worth keeping an eye out for, as well.

About Me

Ariadne in Exile
Aridela Pantherina is a Dionysian, plant healer, and mystic. She’s an initiate and orpheotelest of the Starry Crown Tradition, an emergent Bacchic Orphic mystery tradition, and a formally trained clinical and folk herbalist. She dances a labyrinthine path, lined with bulls, stars and flowers. Her interests are many but it always comes back to ecstatic states and union with the gods.
