Some common uses of Amanita mushrooms by shamans include:


1. Spiritual and shamanic rituals: Amanita mushrooms are believed to have psychoactive properties that can induce altered states of consciousness, allowing shamans to connect with the spiritual realm and communicate with spirits.


2. Healing and medicinal purposes: Amanita mushrooms are used by shamans for their potential healing properties. They are believed to have anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and immune-boosting effects, and are used to treat various ailments and illnesses.


3. Visionary experiences: Amanita mushrooms are known for their hallucinogenic effects, which can result in visionary experiences and insights. Shamans use these experiences for spiritual growth, self-discovery, and guidance.


4. Divination and prophecy: Shamans may use Amanita mushrooms to facilitate divination practices and receive insights into the future. The altered state of consciousness induced by the mushrooms is believed to enhance psychic abilities and intuition.



It is important to note that the use of Amanita mushrooms for spiritual and medicinal purposes should be done with caution and under the guidance of experienced shamans or practitioners, as they can be toxic if consumed inappropriately.
