i miss home

i want to go and make amanita tea and rearrange my mind a bit.... seems like time and everything else has stopped since i've been in pärnu...

recipe for amanita muscaria tea

go out of the house. take a container and a pure heart and clean hands with you. find some mushrooms, they should be everywhere (atleast in northern europe and north america.) not sure when the season in america is tho. in finland the season is ending soon so act quick. they look like this (like you didnt know):




some say they can be eaten raw or made into a tea without drying, i made tea from fresh amanitas and it made me feel a little sick. and tea i've made from dried ones worked better and didnt make me sick at all. so i recommend drying but try different methods, they arent too dangerous to experiment with

cut them up into little pieces and dry them in an oven (left open a little bit) on low heat, like 60-80 celsius. or even better in a mushroom/fruit/whatever dryer if you own one. takes about 12-24h depending how small bits you made and how high the heat is. (some say heat damages them, some say you  can easily go over 100 C)

you can also dry them in room temperature, usually people recommend a drying time of up to a year in this case. i dont think you really have to wait that long...

put the dried pieces in a pot and boil them for MAGIC 20 minutes (c) Soma Shamans (you can download their Secrets of Soma from somewhere on the internet, i think i downloaded via a torrent, epic stuff i promise)

enjoy the taste!

by the way at a party in riga last weekend a hot redhaired girl walked past me and i got the scent of amanitas in my head somehow from her (later she came to talk to me and asked for a cigarette but i think she started feeling embarrased because she was drunk and thought her english was too bad so that was it). also once i was looking for amanitas in a nearby forest, and suddenly i noticed a peculiarly familiar smell. i turned around and 20m from me was a huge bunch of lovely red mushrooms!

about dosage... start low and try what works for you. i have gotten best effects from about 3 midsize caps dried slowly in an oven and then for a couple of weeks in room temperature (because i didnt feel like drinking them right away)

i dont recommend using psychedelics if you are depressed, anxious, afraid or if you just dont feel like it. fasting and especially avoiding alcohol (for atleast 24h) are also important.

learn about the shrooms beforehand and be sure you can handle it. for me it hasnt been a bad experience not once but i think my mind is pretty solid... study erowid for example

i'll keep editing this post as i probably didnt think of everything right now...

oh yeah and you probably would like to know why to take these or how will they make you feel. i've taken them for about 6 times and most of the time they just made me feel sleepy and relaxed and a bit odd (low dosage, wrong setting, low quality bunch of shrooms etc) but the ONE time they reallly worked i felt total harmony with the universe and perfect clearness of mind and i knew what LIFE is about.
