Does Christmas Originate From a Psychedelic Mushroom? Amanita Muscaria Mushrooms, AI & more with Ryan Griffith

Is it possible that the Christmas myth of Santa Claus and his flying reindeer originated from mystical experiences with psychedelic mushrooms?

In today’s special holiday episode I am joined by Ryan Griffith, a man who has dedicated himself to the exploration of consciousness and the pursuit of spiritual wisdom. He is a plant medicine student and just a magical wizard filled with knowledge of many different plants and fungi, including the one we are highlighting here today: The Amanita Muscaria mushroom.

There is a lot of correlation between our modern day Christmas celebration and the Amanita Muscaria mushroom (also known as the fly agaric mushroom), much of which comes from ancient Siberian shamanic traditions and similar traditions in neighboring parts of Europe. Many of the holidays we celebrate today have history in pagan traditions and it’s apparent to me that Christmas is definitely one of them. Christmas also aligns with the holiday of Yule, which is a winter festival historically observed by Germanic and Scandinavian people from centuries long past. This is just a piece of what we get into in today’s podcast.

In this episode Ryan explains the compounds within the Amanita Muscaria mushrooms and the benefits of working with them. He also describes how to process them in order to work with them safely AND he tells us the difference between Amanitas and Psilocybin. We also talk about empowering ourselves to reclaim our birthright to work with sacred plants and the importance of keeping plant medicines out of the hands of government and pharmaceutical gatekeepers.

We even get into a fascinating conversation about the future of AI and the potential of AI to help solve a myriad of problems in our society. We discuss the fears that many of us have in regards to the negative potential of AI and how we can shift our perspective to hopefully steer these technological advancements in the right direction.

I had so much fun recording this episode and I really hope you all enjoy as well!

Happy Holidays to everyone and thank you for listening and supporting this podcast.
