Maori Fairy Tales

Fairy tales from Maoridom make me think of the mild mushroom trip I had near the mighty Whanganui river. The visual ripple effect, typical of psilocybin mushrooms, was like a dragon writhing from inside the river and rippling inside the earth. He sent a message of strength and perseverance. Could magic mushrooms explain the myth of the Taniwha? Whilst only anectdotal, my mushroom experience was an encounter with a taniwha, an unseen entity that was felt and heard. Fairy tales remind us of times and experiences that are human and important. These experiences are what make us who we are and guide us along our path in life. This episode showcases three stories that point us to dragons and the moon.
