Datura (AKA Jimson Weed, Angels Trumpet, Devils Weed)
Recognized especially by their striking, trumpet shaped flowers, Daturas grow world wide through all warm and tropic climates. There are many species of Datura varying in height from 3 - 10 feet, all sharing the stunning flowers.
Datura produce unusual, distinctive walnut sized seed pods covered with spikes. It has been used in every area in which it is known, in rites of passage and in diverse forms of Shamanism.
Its psychoactive properties are extraordinary, and there is certainly no plant more associated with magic and Witchcraft than the Daturas. One of the usual modalities in the Datura experience is that of mystical flight--an out-of-the-body sensation.
A very powerful Shamanic tool, it was sometimes said to take years of navigating the spiritual worlds to be ready to learn from Datura and in many cultures its use was forbidden to all but the high priests.
PLEASE NOTE: ALL PARTS OF THE DATURA PLANT ARE POISONOUS.
NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION.
