	Amanita - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This genus is responsible for 95% of the fatalities resulting from mushroom poisoning, with the death cap accounting for 50% on its own.
		In some cultures, the larger local edible species of Amanita are mainstays of the markets in the local growing season.
		Samples of this are Amanita zambiana and other fleshy species in central Africa, A.

	Amanita muscaria - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Amanita muscaria is a basidiomycete mushroom of the genus Amanita.
		The active ingredient is excreted in the urine of those consuming the mushrooms, and it has sometimes been the practice for a shaman to consume the mushrooms, and the rest of the tribe to drink his urine: the shaman, in effect, partially detoxifying the drug (the sweat- and twitch-causing muscarine is absent in the urine).
		Amanita muscaria is widely thought to be the Soma talked about in the Hindu scriptures, and is less often also thought to be the amrita talked about in Buddhist scriptures.

	Amanita Muscaria
		Amanita muscaria, the highly visible and strikingly beautiful mushroom, also known as the Fly Agaric, is yellow to red in color and speckeled with white.
		Amanita muscaria's history has it associated with both Shamanic and magical practices and it was identified as the "Soma" of the ancient (4000 BC) Rig Veda by Gordon Wasson.
		So Amanita muscaria has historical use as far back as we have history, and it shouldn't be hard to suppose that prehistoric man, in his activities as hunter/gatherer, recognized that there were mushrooms and other plants that had benefits not related to hunger.

	The Lycaeum -- Mushrooms
		When removing the Amanita I recommend first giving the cap a few good taps to knock out spores for future harvests and then cutting off the cap at the uppermost part of the stem.
		The most common enemies to the Amanita are gnat larvae, snails, squirrels, deer, lawn mowers, and possibly polluted rain.
		Amanita cultivation in a lab environment has always been an impossibility due to the symbiotic mycorrhizal relationship of this mushroom to its host trees.

	Amanita Pivots
		The Amanita pivot April 23 was not on a closing basis but on an intraday basis a double-top with April 5 and thus an intermediate-term turning point that was not significantly exceeded within +/- 1-2 months.
		That's why the Amanita pivots (dates for potential intermediate-term trend reversals) are a crucial part of the Amanita forecasts, they are sent out a few weeks in advance.
		I have found out that the Amanita pivots can also be used to get insights into the internal market strength and to generate bullish and bearish signals: The understanding of these signals is not crucial, so the description can be found on a separate page.

	Killer Mushrooms: The Toxic Amanita spp.
		There are many edible amanitas, but eating the wrong one can get you into heaps of trouble, not to mention the delerium, vomiting, diarrhea, cramps, liver failure or death you may experience.
		Most poisonings tend to occur in people from foreign countries who pick Amanitas that look "just like" those yummy ones they ate at home or to overconfident novice mycophagists (people who wild mushrooms) who have not bothered to properly identify their mushrooms.
		The Amanita are primarily identified by the presence of a universal veil completely covering immature mushrooms, a volva or cup around the base, a partial veil which may be in the form of a ring on the upper stalk, free to slightly attached white/cream colored gills, and a white spore print.

		About 2 sq cm of the dried, peeled skin from the reddish cap were crumbled and smoked in a pipe along with a tiny bit of MJ to mellow out the otherwise rather harsh smoke.

		As a mushroom, the amanita muscaria does not disseminate seeds as plants do, but ejaculates microscopic spores which create a threadlike fungal network at the base of conifer trees from which thunderstorms elicit more mushrooms.
		Prior to knowledge of spores, lightning was thought to be the source of mushrooms and lightning was considered the fiery progenitive spears of God, hence the phallic fungi were called 'Sons of God'.
