# fly agaric

## Visual Elements

a mushroom with a white stem and red cap with white dots.

## Cultural Context

The fly agaric (Amanita muscaria) is the iconic red-and-white mushroom of fairy tales and folklore. Unlike psilocybin mushrooms, it contains muscimol and produces a deliriant rather than psychedelic experience. Some scholars believe it may be the ancient soma described in Vedic texts.

<!-- justification
## Justification

The most visually iconic mushroom in human culture doubles as a candidate for soma, the divine intoxicant of the Vedas. Pure archetype.
