Demeter is also associated with psychedelics. It comes from the Eleusinian Mysteries, a HUGE festival practiced in ancient Greece, where they would take citizens through the story of Demeter losing Persephone to Hades. The priestesses would feed participants a drink called Kykeon, which would mainly consist of barley, water, honey, penny royal, and they suspect Ergot, which is a psychedelic fungi that grows on barley and other such grains. If you wanted to have a fun night with your consumable of choice, I'd set up an altar to Demeter, Persephone and Hades, and learn about the Mysteries. I've had wonderful experiences this way. I have a whole playlist that we performed over Samhain for our group. It was so well received, we're going to make it a yearly thing. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2OalQiSyJB3f7PeiefuRGK?si=nwYk-lNHQ7afIwKcEwxaSQ
