Shakti History
Hailing from the Indian Malabar Coast, the Shakti mushroom strain, also known as Shataki or Albino Malabar, is a true albino mutation of the Malabar mushroom.
Like many magic mushrooms, the history of this shakti magic mushrooms is unconfirmed. However, online forums speculate that this fascinating fungi is an Albino Malabar iso by MycoMama Angela and their husband. Aside from this, not much else is known about the history of this strain.
Regardless, this mushroom psilocybe is growing in popularity in Canada as a rare and exotic hallucinogen revered for its strong potency and stunning visuals.
Shakti Mushroom Appearance
Shakti magic mushrooms are easy to recognize. Not only are they large, but their pure white wavy caps and thick, stout bodies are hard to miss. Shakti caps can reach 8 cm in diameter and the stems can grow between 4 to 15 cm tall.
When you order from our online shop, keep in mind that dried mushrooms will shrink in size and may have noticeable light-to-dark blue spots. These spots are called bruising–an indicator of psilocybin–and typically occur during harvest, transport, or handling. So, if you see any bruising, don’t worry! It doesn’t compromise the mushroom strains’ quality, safety, and potency.
Magic Mushroom Benefits
Everyone talks about how fun magic mushrooms are, but did you know Shakti can be used therapeutically, psychologically, and spiritually? Based on anecdotal evidence, users say this shroom can encourage personal growth, creative inspiration, and spiritual exploration. But don’t be disappointed if you don’t have a specific experience, Shakti mushroom benefits will vary from person to person.
Recent studies suggest psychedelic mushrooms may help with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and PTSD. This can potentially be a promising avenue for individuals experiencing treatment resistance. Mushrooms can provide some relief from symptoms, making them a great alternative treatment for anyone dealing with mental and behavioural conditions. However, ongoing studies are underway, so don’t abandon your current treatment plan just yet.
Shakti Mushroom Effects
The Shakti psychedelic experience is potent, yet smooth. Once ingested, the onset of effects will begin within 30 minutes, sometimes sooner, depending on the consumption method. Generally, mushroom trips last between 3 and 6 hours, with some users reporting trips lasting up to 8 hours.
Mind-altering effects may include seeing colours and shapes, heightened emotions, an altered sense of time and space, or feeling at one with the universe. At higher doses, Shakti mushrooms can bring visual, auditory, and tactile hallucinations, life-changing insights, a strong body high, and intense euphoria. Ego death and spiritual awakenings are more likely to occur at heroic doses (5+ grams).
Microdoses of Shakti may help improve mood, focus, and creativity while minimizing the unwanted side effects of psychedelics–nausea, vomiting, paranoia, panic, or psychosis.
Shakti Recommendations
Consuming magic mushrooms without 1) a plan and 2) preparation is the fastest way to spiral into a bad trip. Minimize the risks by taking a moment to consider your set (mindset) and setting (environment). If you’re in a negative headspace or using psychedelics as a means of escape, hold off on taking them until you’re in a better place mentally. Good or bad, shrooms will amplify your mood and feelings.
Generally, you can take Shakti mushrooms anywhere and anytime you want. But the caveat is choosing an environment you feel safe, secure, and comfortable in. If that means hiking, a festival, or indoors, then it’s entirely up to you. For first-time shroomers, we recommend tripping in a quiet, familiar environment around people you trust. It’s also a great idea to have a sober trip sitter nearby.
Now that you have the basics, little things are needed to make your psychedelic mushroom trip more enjoyable. Stock up on enough food, drinks (water), snacks, and entertainment for at least 8 hours. And don’t forget to let go and have fun with Shakti magic mushrooms!
Mushroom Dosage
Choosing the perfect mushroom dosage is a balance between art and science. The higher the dose, the more psychedelic effects you may feel and see–body highs, geometric patterns, and hallucinations. But you’ll have to take into account your weight, age, tolerance, emotional state, metabolism, and experience.
