The elusive #flyagaric or Possibly the most famous #mushroom in history, purely because of it's distinctive colour and alleged #psychedelic associations. Used in books about elves and gnomes and even #supermario it's also got many mythical associations.

Firstly can you eat it? Yes but only if you know what you're doing...it contains substances that can make you very ill. From what I've heard there are methods but PLEASE DO NOT EAT THIS UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING!

Also it is true that people used to drink the urine for reindeer who had eaten it in order to get high themselves and indeed that of holy men and shamans to do the same.

One person's getting high is another's spiritual journey and we can argue that one till the cows come home but there's no denying that muscimol will alter your state if you take enough of it.

Other used include making a tincture to help with muscle pain and also help you sleep, I have some myself.
