Endangered Entheogen: Is Salvia Divinorum Getting Banned?

Salvia Divinorum, also called Diviner's Sage is a potent psychedelic plant that has been used for a long, long time by South American shamans. They use it to go into an altered state of consciousness so they can contact spirits and get their assistance in treating their patients. We suspect there are a few folks up in the States who also enjoy Salvia for recreational purposes.

And it is for the latter reason that House Bill 1363 is going to make Salvia illegal in the state of Florida on July 1, 2008. Already, this psychoactive herb is verboten in North Dakota, Oklahoma, Missouri, Tennessee, Louisiana, Illinois and Delaware. More states are thinking about banning it, and there are those who would not be at all surprised if this entheogen is completely outlawed in all 50 states by 2010.

That's why, if you or someone you know enjoys spiritual exploration and healing with the assistance of natural plant substances, maybe you'd like to stock up now. Who knows when the famine might happen?

We know of one good online source for Salvia and other entheogens, such as ayahuasca and San Pedro. Check out http://AyahuascaShaman.info.
