I’m excited to pick-up where we left off with the second of my vintage two-parter about the story revealing cannabis as a spirit plant.
I’m referring to an article from the Vault of Erowid that made public a more than 30-year-old interview that had never seen the light of day because of the jaw-dropping references about cannabis as a “Psychic Vitamin”!
Let me know what you think!

Erowid is worth exploring if you have an interest in Mind & Spirit. It’s tagline is “documenting the complex relationship between humans and psychoactives”
Wow powerful words from “Blake” and I couldn’t agree more with my own experience with Cannabis: my use started off very superficial, and I’d even go as far as saying detrimental, as I found the potent mental effects were being used to further embed my mental dysfunction…but as time and use went on, I found myself deeply exploring the spiritual and psychic side of this plant (myself) and it all happened so organically, and now Cannabis is a powerful spiritual ally that I have deep respect for. It really is all about intention with this plant; I wish I had known more about this side before I had tried it, so I love your work Becca. Thank you 🙏
Thank you for your kind words:) As you suggest, working with cannabis consciously is a powerful shift that makes all the difference when we’re ready for the Inner exploration. At the same time, I believe the plant is valuable in its other roles. For example, even when one creates a dependence on cannabis because they want to numb emotional pain, once that person is ready to wakeup, the plant (less addictive as caffeine for most) simply takes on a different role. Unlike addictive substances, it doesn’t pickle organs like alcohol or manipulate the brain as do opiates and other prescriptions drugs.
Yes such a good way to say it 🙂 I have had problems with addiction for over a decade now, and I’ve said this to my close friends and family so many times: what other substance that you are addicted to can also help overcome said addiction?? None that I know of!! I was lucky that my addictive traits moved from alcohol to weed, as you mention, much less destructive, and turned out to be the very thing I needed to “explore” the addiction and help myself overcome it. An incredible plant indeed 🙂
