FLY AMANITA: ARE YOU READY FOR A MUSHROOM TRIP?
๐ THE GATEWAY TO THE VIBRANT FAIRY KINGDOM ๐
Presentation ๐ซ
Hello friends who appreciate the wonderful kingdom of mushrooms. This is my first participation in the community Fungi Lovers and I give you all a hug. I share with you what was one of the most beautiful searches I've done in recent months.
๐ง๏ธ A sign in the sky ๐ง๏ธ
A few weeks ago, it rained wonderfully in the valley of the Sierras Grandes in Cรณrdoba, Argentina, a few kilometers from my house. And every time it rains in the pine and birch forests, magic grows.
It had been my birthday and I needed to take a little trip to disconnect and reconnect with Nature.
Grab the backpack, a coat, a book and something to smoke.
And I went out into the street.
๐๐๐ Traveling ๐๐๐
In the center of Argentina in the southern hemisphere of the American continent there is a wonderful magical place called La Cumbrecita, there thanks to the help of a friend I met these magical mushrooms for the first time.
It is ironic and it is very funny that as a child one of my favorite cartoons was The Smurfs, who lived in very particular homes... Some time later I would discover that they were mushrooms called Amanita Muscaria and that they were not very far from where she lived.

Magic mushrooms teach you another superimposed realm, capable of making us expand our perceptions of what is real.
๐ ๐ ๐
I would like to make clear the seriousness of the matter, and do not take it lightly, take many precautions, I absolutely do not recommend it to anyone who has not been called by the same magic mushrooms to look for them.
If this is not your case, you should never consume them or even touch them. In my particular case, I felt a very strong attraction towards this particular type of fungi from a very young age and I learned about them from many sources.
๐ ๐ ๐
When I grew up and wanted to experiment with extreme situations with a friend, we went one day to look for them personally. We have already tried other mushrooms of the psilocybe genus that are also psychoactive. But these mushrooms are totally different from the process of collection, drying, consumption and effects. It is a totally different substance.
๐ ๐ ๐
At first we searched for them randomly, looking at all places, searching among the undergrowth, the thorny bushes, among the high rocks, near the rivers, under all the trees.
Then I understood that there were places where they were more likely to grow and with time perhaps in the future I would be able to harvest them looking only at the sky... Or the treetops, that is, trying to identify pines and cypresses, which is under whose roots develops the mycelium of this species.
๐ ๐ ๐
As you can see they are beautiful and I think they are one of the only beings that have such a distinctive pattern of red with white dots. They do make you want to touch them however and despite my mistake I do not recommend that you touch them with your bare hands. Next time I'll wear gloves.
๐ ๐ ๐
The collection process was simple, and consisted of asking permission with a prayer, and gently separating them from the ground, shaking them slightly in order to free them from dust and spread their spores. And then load them in the backpack. I would put them to air dry as soon as I got home. Thank Mother Earth with a smile on my lips.
๐ ๐ ๐
And here for today, I share some more of my own images, thank you very much for reading.
If someone asks for it, maybe I'll do a second part of this post, but for the moment I think it's fine like this.

Have you ever tried magic mushrooms?

I'd like to see a second part to this post ๐
Thanks for the good vibes, for the support, thanks for your words, they give me encouragement to continue. Many hugs! In a few days I'll upload the second part ๐
By the way, I also loved the article you posted about Amanitas and their old relationship with Christmas, and... reindeer ๐
It's a mushroom that has had a bad rap here in the global West. I'm experi.enting with certain aspects of its goodness and will post as I confirm them.
I would love to read that post. It would be great to be able to shed some light with direct experiences. I am drying the collected material and I also plan to do something similar, but in a couple of months. Thanks for stopping by. Blessings. May this wonderful community continue to grow.
If you want some good info on this sacred mushroom, check out Amanita Dreamer on YouTube. She has links back to her website with amazing and valuable info.
What does 'jardinero' mean? Curious!
Awesome post, lets share more love to this wonderful mushroom. ๐ช
Hello! And thank you very much for asking and commenting. It was a humble attempt to give love to the kingdom of the mushrooms.
Every day they amaze me more, like the giant mushroom of Oregon, the largest organism on earth.
And the answer has no major mysteries "Jardinero" is the Spanish word for Gardener. I am a registered grower of cannabis for medicinal purposes in Argentina.
Thank you! and excuse my laziness. Now I added +1 word from your nice language to my vocabulary! (We have a coffee brand named 'Jardin' here, in Russia, thats why I became curious about it when noticed in your profile).
Please, it is a pleasure to share a few words with you. It's nice to know that when I visit Russia, I already know what coffee to order๐
Meanwhile, have a hot hive !PIZZA for your coffee ๐คฉ

Hello! Fantastically beautiful fly agarics, as we call them in Sweden. Here it has been raining all summer, so the forests are full of mushrooms. Too bad I never tried them! Now I'm too old to try, now I just have to smoke.
Hello @mandragora88, thanks for sharing your words (by the way, I loved your username, a plant whose roots are also magical, I would love to see it up close sometime, its morphology is surprising but unfortunately it does not grow in Argentina).
There are many ways to take leaps of consciousness I think, smoke a herb, eat a mushroom or simply contemplate that beautiful rain in the woods, what a paradise. So many paths to reach the same learning.
I send you lots of hugs.
