Is Santa a Mushroom? The Strange Secret Behind Flying Reindeer
Mon Dec 22 2025
Santa symbolism may have come from fly agaric. This might explain the strange, psychedelic roots of Christmas. From flying reindeer to red-and-white symbolism, tonight we're talking about how ancient rituals, shamanism, and folklore shaped the modern Santa myth. Long before malls and movies, winter traditions were tied to altered states, seasonal rites, and symbolic storytelling. We trace how the amanita muscaria became part of northern European belief systems, why it appears in holiday imagery, and how myth evolves into culture over time.
