It was a mixture of extremely poisonous ingredients.\nThe drug produced an ecstatic trance with powerful sensations of flying, images of otherworldly creatures and a primal sexual hunger. These hallucinations are at the core of the mythology of witches, where they fly to the sabbath at Blåkulla or Brocken to do it with the devil and other witches in unholy rites.\nSo, the image of witches flying can be traced back to the use of hexensalbe, but why on a broomstick? The ointment was so poisonous that eating it would be directly fatal, instead it was applied to other soft membranes of the body, armpits and more commonly the genitals. Because of the erotic effects of the high, the salve would often be rubbed directly onto a phallic object like the end of a staff or a broomstick. And so, the witch did not ride the broomstick like we picture her today. She actually -really- rode it.\nGiven which aspects of the story of hexensalbe has survived into the modern image of witches, and what has been suppressed, it would seem that the one thing more terrifying than witches or devils, is female sexuality.","images":["https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0753/5007/files/HS_web-h_8fe99b7e-15b1-4aea-9e8e-89dd14cff158.jpg?v=1760540835"],"price":180,"currency":"USD","in_stock":true,"inventory_qty":9999,"dynamic_pricing":false,"listed_at":"2026-06-18T20:45:03.653Z"},"share_url":"https://firestarter.network/l/lst_KtK82eMZ","purchase":{"summary":"Live product listing on the Firestarter agent commerce network.
