Diviner's sage
















Yesterday I received a box of live plants from Richter's Herbs.
Included amongst them was a plant known as Salvia Divinorum, 
diviner's sage or salvia. Richter's states: "Sacred sage of the Mazateca Indians of Mexico used to induce divinatory visions... psychotrophic effects similar to mescaline due to salvinorin compounds." This plant, while perfectly legal in Canada, has come into use as a recreational drug, either chewed fresh or dried and smoked, for visioning  and mild hallucinogenic effects.

Have you had any interesting Salvia experiences?
