If you’d believe Carlos Castaneda then you’d suppose that once you swallow a dose of peyote you’ll be spending all night with the spirit of the plant, Mescalito himself, probably in the form of a dog that wonders why you’re following it around on all fours.
Peyote is a very gentle, very magical experience that starts so smoothly that you’ll typically fail to notice that you’re getting really high until you stand up to get a drink of water. Everything becomes sacred under the influence of peyote and it can be a wonderful healing experience.
It’s lots of fun to take peyote in a peyote circle and you can either go and do this with the natives in the deserts of North Mexico , or be in touch with some of the travelling peyote shamans that run peyote medicine circles around Europe and the States.
