Passion Flower Incarnate:

(Cut'n'Past)
Passiflora incarnata*is the botanical name of the plant more commonly known as*passion flower. Other common names include passion vine and purple passion flower. The plant is part of the Passifloraceae family, there are over 500 species and 15 genera in the family.*
Most of the species in the Passiflora genus (including Passiflora incarnata) are vines. The name passion flower comes from the religious symbolism assigned to the vine by Christians. The plant itself, is said to symbolize the passion of Christ.*
Some Christians believe the structure of the flower represents the crucifixion of Jesus. Others say the flower and the fruit represents the crown of thorns worn by Jesus Christ (or a halo) and the petals represent the apostles.*
Scientific Classification Of Passiflora incarnata*
Kingdom: Plantae*
Division: Magnoliophyta*
Class: Magnoliopsida*
Order: Malpighiales*
Family: Passifloraceae*
Genus: Passiflora*
Species: Passiflora incarnata*
Although the exact location is not known, Passiflora incarnata is thought to have originated somewhere in the Caribbean or southeastern North America (near Florida). Most other species of Passiflora originated in the tropical rainforests of South America.*
It is fairly easy to grow this shamanic herb either by starting from seeds or transplanting grown plants from the wild. However, you will have to provide loose, fluffy soil, and make sure to drain well after watering. In order for this vine to grow upwards, provide a trellis or some other type of support so it can climb.*
Plant lovers grow passion flower for their large, white and purple flowers. It is a very good plant to grow in gardens and patios, where it creates a homey and country effect. Passiflora incarnata is also grown for the yellow-green fruit it produces. It is sweet and can be made into a juice.*

[h4]Chemistry Of Passiflora incarnata[/h4]
Scientists once believed that harmala alkaloids were the main*psychoactive*chemical in Passiflora incarnata. However, more recent studies have shown that apigenine and C-glycosylfavones are the primary chemicals that produce psychoactive effects.*
Passiflora incarnata may contain small amounts of harmala alkaloids. Besides being psychoactive on their own, harmala alkaloids reduce the breakdown of*DMT*in the digestive system. Plants that contain larger quantities of harmala alkaloids are often used in the preparation of*ayahuasca.*
Although it is sometimes used as an additive plant, Passiflora incarnata is not used as a main ingredient in ayahuasca because of the small amount of harmala alkaloids present. Plants like*Banisteriopsis caapi*and Peganum harmala have much higher concentrations.

[h4]How To Use Passion Flower (Passiflora incarnata)[/h4]
Passiflora incarnata has a calming effect on most people. In Europe, it has been brewed into a tea and used to treat nervous conditions for centuries. It is not as strong as a sleeping pill but can be used to induce, deepen and prolong sleep in people with mild sleep problems.*
However, the*drug*is mild and may not even be noticed to someone who consumes*drugs*on a regular basis. While some people say it is similar to mild*marijuana*without the high (more of a calming or sleepy feeling), an everyday marijuana smoker will not feel much.*
Dry passion flower*leaves and flowers can be crushed into a powder and smoked alone or mixed with marijuana and smoked in a pipe. If you are interested in a stronger dose, making passion flower tea might be a good idea.*
Start with 2 grams and work your way to a higher dose each time you try (until you find a dose you like). Wait a week or more between passion flower sessions. The effects are very subtle to begin with, if you get used to them, even if you consume large quantities you will feel next to nothing.*
To make passion flower tea for the first time, take 2 grams (per person) of Passiflora incarnata leaves or flowers (crushed into a powder) and put them in a*pot*with some water. Apply heat and bring to a near boiling temperature.*
Heat the mixture*for 15-30 minutes, then strain the material through a strainer or something else that will separate plant material from the liquid. After separation you can heat the strained liquid at near boiling temperatures, in order to reduce it to an amount you can drink.*
Most people don't like the taste of the tea, so mixing (after it has been boiled and strained) with something like concentrated fruit juice might make it more palatable. Do not add water to the concentrated fruit juice, add the juice directly to the passion flower tea. Depending on your taste, a warm or cold drink may be more to you liking.*
Passion flower and*caffeine*may cause headaches in some people, if consumed together. To be safe, it is best not to consume any caffeine products (coffee, tea,*coke, pepsi, etcetera) for a few days prior to, and after ingesting passion flower.
