Prehistoric ceramic vessels of the pre-contact Mississippian peoples of the midwestern and eastern USA (800-1600 CE) containing datura residue from a datura ritual preparation believed to be used to enter the dream world to communicate with spirits and deities.

All the vessels that tested positive for datura featured symbols of the watery underworld: frogs, turtles, supernatural water serpents, the underwater panther, and the god and goddess of the “beneath world”. The female figure on the left is believed to be “Old Woman Who Never Dies” —goddess of the moon and the underworld.

HAPPY 414!!!

I can't think of a better day to post this. I've been working on and off on this for months, wanting to make a tribute to the Joeyverse and the fandom. So today I wanna say thank you. If it wasn't for Bendy, I wouldn't have made the friends I have today or be where I am. I can't think of what my life would be like without them. To the ones who made my life amazing, to the ones who keep the fandom going, and to those who may not be a part of it anymore, I love you all. I hope we can keep being friends for many more years to come 🖤🖤🖤

DATURA (D. STRAMONIUM) ☠️🥀

Datura is a genus of nine species of poisonous flowering plants belonging to the family Solanaceae. Datura is known as powerful and dangerous deliriants, used for shamanic and medical purposes, as well as poisons. They contain the potent anticholinergic substances scopolamine, hyoscyamine, and atropine primarily in their seeds and flowers. The reported effects post-ingestion have been commonly reported as states of psychotic delirium, longterm amnesia—and oftentimes results in fatality.

Nightshade is related to several similar plants, including angel's trumpets. It can also be called Datura. They're a type of drug called a deliriant. They've been traditionally used in many Native American and European cultures alike since before colonization, and in a ritual setting I (personally) would absolutely try it. There are as many ways to take it as there are tribes who use it. The main active chemical in them is scopolamine, which when ingested by my cousin led him to slap his mama and go to jail (👎)

I've pretty much only heard of negative experiences with this medicine outside a traditional context, so if you are planning to try this, I recommend only taking it with someone who has a lot of experience using it personally themselves. Don't just go eat or smoke a random flower, the incorrect method could cause brain damage and make you see hell!
