San Pedro Flowers?

[Cassie]

Browsing for some pics i found a site with the following information:


SAN PEDRO CACTUS [C] Trichocereus pachanoi (white with brown-red reverse)
Cactaceae, Cactus Family
Body: Enhances auric protection from many types of radiation and contaminants: EMF, ELF, nuclear, sound/aural, air pollution, etc. Works on auric levels rather than physical; helps the Body Deva choose which types of influx best serve general health, and reject other qualities of input. Assists function of energy body in its role as a filter for external energies. Useful in MS, auto-immune disorders; stimulates the immune system's discernment.
     This essence impacts communication throughout the Body Deva's systems. Each aspect has its own level of awareness; when these are not communicating and coordinating clearly with other systems, we have dysfunction. Although used alone it will not cure karmic conditions, San Pedro Cactus can assist in simple systemic miscommunication.
Psyche: Expands auric boundaries. Filters information coming into the psyche, for clear messages of good intent; useful in power and manipulation situations, where negativity on any level could be easily taken on from others. Illuminates issues of self and other; find harmony in disparate viewpoints and realities.
Spirit: Opens crown chakra; assists influx of Light to higher chakra centers, which is then distributed throughout the body by the Body Deva.

I don't know how much credence to give some the new-agey stuff people get into but do try to be open minded ...

i would love to make a floral tincture of sanpedro blossoms, for use in perfumes, massage creams, annointing oils...

anybody got a shopping-bag full of fresh cactus blooms & a gallon or two of 151 proof vodka?

just be careful, if there are any actives in the flower matter, one runs the risk of getting done for extraction/possesion of illicit subst.

I don't think there are actives in the blooms as I've seen essences offered for sale in US.
