"Entheogen" is a term that is generally interchangeable with psychedelic. Entheogens in our resolution are defined as living, fresh, dried, or processed plant or fungal material, including teas or powders, that may contain currently scheduled or analog psychoactive indole amines or phenethylamines. For example, psilocybin mushrooms, ayahuasca tea, and iboga. Importantly, Lophophora williamsii (also known as peyote) has a particular history in the United States, a vulnerable ecological status, and a special cultural significance to Native Americans. Due to this special history and over-harvesting and collapse of peyote gardens in southern Texas, and to the long time required for
plants to mature in cultivation, peyote is not included in the definition of entheogens adopted by our resolution (whereas mescaline containing cacti are included). Moreover, nothing in the resolution shall be construed to interfere with the current rights of Native Americans to possess, consume and cultivate
peyote under the American Indian Religious Freedom Act and amendments.

Similarly, because Incilius alvarius (the Sonoran Desert Toad) is threatened with extinction, 5-MeO-DMT extract derived by milking the glands of these toads, is excluded from the definition of entheogens. 5-MeO-DMT derived from sources other than Incilius alvarius is included in the definition (Under ballot measure 110, the synthetic form is already decriminalized for personal use, and should be used safely and carefully with intention and guidance instead).

“Entheogen related activities” means the cultivation, possession, transport, storage, sharing, exchange,
or consumption of Entheogens.
