Amanita Muscaria Fly Agaric red mushroom cluster wallpaper

 Amanita Muscaria or Fly Agaric is one of the most known mushrooms to be psychedelic, its ingestion inducing hallucinations. Shamans in Siberia would use it to enter a trance state and its usages for hallucinogenic states throughout time have been linked with a variety of symbols and stories. In Rig Veda apparently the soma was actually the fly agaric while some believe the amanita was the entire reason behind the Beserks mystery.

 "Of all Swedish plants, however, I consider the Fly-Agaric, Agaricus muscarius, to be the one which really solves the mystery of the Beserks. Its use is so widespread in Northern Asia that there are hardly any nomadic tribes that do not use it in order to deprive themselves of their feelings and senses that may enjoy the animal pleasure of escaping the salutary bonds of reason... Those who use this mushroom first become merry, so that they sing, shout, etc., then it attacks the functions of the brain and they have the sensation of becoming very big and strong; the frenzy increases and is accompanied by unusual energy and convulsive movements. The sober persons in their company often have to watch them to see that they do no violence to themselves or others. The raving lasts 12 hours, more or less."
