Salvia Divinorum is also known as Diviner's Sage, Magic mint and Seers Sage. Salvia is classified as a herb but has the ability to bring on vivid hallucinations. Salvia Divinorum is a member of the sage family. The salvia plant can be found in many parts of Central and South America. It usually grows to a height of 34 feet and has inconspicuous flowers.
The Incas used Salvia Divinorum in religious ceremonies and for the treatment of skin disorders. Even then it was known that the plant had ability to induce hallucinations and disturbances of thought. It was this psychedelic property of the drug that often created religious visions- akin to seeing mother Mary. Of course, the Incas thought that they were something special when they started to develop these visual hallucinations.
Over the years, the demand for Salvia in North America has increased exponentially, partly because of its ability to induce vivid hallucinations. Salvia is chiefly used by young people. It can be smoked, ingested, inhaled or chewed. When the right quality of crushed leaves is consumed, almost everyone mention of a psychedelic experience with unusual vivid perceptions.
Based on little information, the plant appears to have no addictive property or long term toxicity. It is widely available for purchase from many internet sites. One can purchase either the fresh leaves or the concentrated extracts.
