Common Australian Entheogens

The purpose of this post is to give Australians a basic list of common Psychoactive / Entheogenic plants as well as having the comments section for you to list any additions or changes that should be made to the list. Australia has an abundance of plants with uses in both medicinal and shamanic practices there are many native and introduced species that can be used for a range of ailments or visionary experiences. Over time i will add descriptions to each plant but for now i will just link them to their wikipedia pages for any of you wanting to know more !


This list is largely of plants you may be likely to encounter whilst travveling in your local area, either natives or established exotics / weeds.


While this list is primitive at present i felt only listing the core plants would suffice for now and a bit further down the track i can edit more in. Please feel free to make suggestions. We will be starting a Common Australian Medicinal Plants post shortly as well for those looking for natural alternatives to prescribed medicine.<br /><br />
