Naw, but I consider my connection to those ancestors pretty significant, especially when it comes to psychedelic mushrooms.
I like the way they tripped and went onto war. Or at least they would work themselves up into a trip. I can relate to that, but I also want nothing to do with the raping and pillaging. The realities of that kinda suck.

Yeah, or at least that is a fairly common intpretation of history. Vikings would eat mushrooms to psych themselves up for war. I assume the folks at stonehenge were munching liberty caps fall festival

You have no idea how I trip. It makes me an animal.
How can you go to war without tripping?

i've been told the mushrooms-to-go-berserk thing turned out to be a myth. but they did have shamans who would eat fly agaric mushrooms for guidance and probably for fun to some extent
I would like a source on this

I would only do mushrooms, and only a bit. It makes things sharp and surreal in a way that seems suitable for war, at least in low doses.
That said I'd prefer to avoid war, it makes for a mindfuck in the end. I'd rather live to be a happy tripping old man.
But yeah, I'll put some faith in their extreme arcetypes for humans.

Interesting. I'm wary of the racist implications, I would probably piss on a piece of wood with a swastika on it, but I mean no personal offense. I have just always been taught that the swastika is a symbol of hate.
I am investigating some of the long-fallen churches of the native american people in my area, but there are not many left and they never used mushrooms to my knowledge. I have european ancestry but I also feel connected to the people who lived where I live.
Around here it is mostly about lines of stones, standing stones, balance rocks, and maybe small caves.

Well, technically I don't have Norse ancestors to my knowledge, but Irish and north German, and I assume they are all intermixed.
Yeah, I totally relate to them as individuals and spiritual beings, but I want nothing to do with Nazis.

I totally understand that. I don't really know anything about that culture. Hopi indians use it too and they were not Nazis.

Good luck. I used to draw it all over my shit in 6th grade because I liked the symbol, but then people set me straight and I was kind of embarrased because I don't want to be tied into that horrible BS.
