Thanks to the folks at ! How are things going in your state?

Early January, 2022, Washington State lawmakers introduced legislation that would legalize supported psilocybin experiences by adults 21 and older. Read more on the slides.

Like most areas of modern society, there is a shortage of cultural diversity and minority perspectives, particularly Native American perspectives, within the current Psychedelic Renaissance. As the world takes interest in plant medicines and decriminalizing nature’s gifts, the subjects of historical racial trauma and stewardship from a Native American and Indigenous worldview and framework are sorely lacking.

While many have taken  an interest in the impacts of the psychedelic market demand on Indigenous Peoples of South America, what about the impacts on Native Americans and other Indigenous peoples within North America? Are psychonauts prepared to address the legacy of colonial trauma and deal with the residual damage of their latest commodification project?

Listen in as two Tribally enrolled citizens share their perspectives and research on how privilege and racial disparities within psychedelic spaces are contributing to ongoing trauma versus healing for Native Americans.

This event will take place live via Zoom and will NOT be recorded

Awesome update in the latest in policy reform for our neighbors in California. (Text and images from 🙏🏽 )

“2022 could be a big year for ending psychedelic prohibition in California. 🍄 SB-519, which would legalize personal possession of a range of psychedelics from M**A to L*D to psilocybin, is being considered in the state legislature, while activists with DecrimCA () are going to be collecting signatures for a psilocybin legalization initiative, with the hopes of having it appear on the November 2022 ballot. But how do these two measures intersect, and are they complementary or conflicting with one another?

At DoubleBlind, we’ve covered SB 519 in-depth, but now we’re taking a deep dive inside the California Psilocybin Initiative 2022. Check the link in bio to read on in our latest feature by Joseph Holcomb Adams. ☝️

Awesome developments unfolding with our neighbors to the north! Check out the bill and notice it’s similarity, and a couple key differences from, Oregon’s measure 109. Thanks to our advisory board Mason Marks for helping this come to fruition and to for reporting.

Do you support the legalization of adult-use psilocybin services? How about broad decriminalization? Let us know!

At PMHA, we are working to fill in the gaps left by these much needed state initiatives by decriminalizing community based use of plant based entheogens in unlimited quantities.

Huachuma photographed by our dear friend Erika Gagnon. Have you ever seen it bloom? Wow.

Like pe**te, huachuma is a sacramental cactus which contains mescaline. Also known as San Pedro, it is a fast growing cactus which can flourish in a variety of climates and is legal to grow as an ornamental.

Fascinating article from for . Have a look! And let’s always remember that Indigenous communities are the wisdom keepers who have protected and preserved these medicines for generations. Exciting “discoveries” in the global north are often confirmation of teachings that have been carried throughout generations of traditional peoples. Let’s continue to reflect on how we can demonstrate reciprocity as interest in entheogens grows.

🔁from
highlighting a lesser known plant medicine often used in ceremony:

“Peganum harmala, also known as Syrian rue or sometimes wild rue in English speaking cultures, harmel or harmal in Arabic, and besasa or “plant or Bes” in Egypt. Archaeological records show human interaction with Syrian rue for 7000 years, but references to harmel were noted in Cappadocian tablets 2000 BC. This perennial plant is very similar to the well-known ayahuasca, sharing a similar molecular profile as well as psychoactive experience. They also hold integral and similar roles in healing and spirituality in many cultures. In Turkey, seeds are promoted for the use of reaching a “state of exhilarating euphoria and great joy” when ingested and sometimes when mixed with cannabis it “makes sight blind, increases the power of imagination.” In India, seeds are roasted and crushed into a fine powder referred to as techepakchìatzen, which is ingested or smoked with to***co. In northern Pakistan, Hunza shamans inhale the seed vapour, called supandur, and used for the purpose of calling the spirits.”
