Salvia divinorum (also known as Diviner's sage, María Pastora or simply Salvia, although the genus name is shared among many plants) is a psychoactive plant, a member of the sage genus and the Lamiaceae (mint) family. The plant is grown by the Mazatec indigenous people of the Oaxaca mountains of southern Mexico in isolated, moist, and secret plots. It has been used as an entheogen by their shamans for centuries for healing during spirit journeys. It is thought to be a cultigen. No definitively wild populations have been found. The Latin name Salvia divinorum literally translates to "sage of the seers".

Ive tried that stuff, was not real impressed though cause the effects only last about 5 or 10 minutes. basically it will give you mild visuals like acid does, nothing real extreme or over the top. and will make you dizzy as hell, making it hard to walk, so if you do try this stuff make sure you re sitting down and don't need to get up for the duration of the trip.
