Mandrake
Belladonna
A witches plant of the same family as Mandrake and Belladonna. It is one of the ingredients used to make flying ointment. In plant from, it is used as a painkiller, to induce oblivion, create altered states and even death, depending on dosage. In essence form, it serves as a key that can open the doorway to spirit flight.
The quintessential magical plant, feared and valued for its strange root and powerful narcotic properties. It is the main hallucinogenic ingredient used by both shamans and witches. In essence form, it is most effective when it is placed on top of the head to create a safe otherwordly visionary experience.
Deadly Nightshade, also known as Belladonna, was reportedly used in witchcraft as a flying ointment. When the plant was soaked in fat then applied externally it induced the sensation of flying, due to its hallucinogenic effects. In essence form it clears away self-deceptions which can release one's own demons and lead to transformation of the self.
