no other tales to tell???????

I have tried Salvia 60x which allowed me to experience subtle energies beyond my perception. I felt and saw subtle energies and my consciousness starting to leave my body, I was trying to describe to my friend who was standing by encase I had difficulties. I told him that if I had another hit I would be "out there" in a different dimension. I took another hit and my body seemed to melt into the chair, I was looking down at my body as if it was a machine - it seemed so heavy and clunky. I remember being in a tunnel which was made up of vibrant colours and fractal patterns and there were orbs or entities which were communicating with me. I remember seeing how everything was connected, there could be no separation, this sensation enveloped me. I struggle to remember any other kind of details because I find Salvia affects who you think you are if you know what I mean?

I took Ayahuasca 2 days ago after researching into it for the last few months and it has deeply touched me. I don't know if I can put all of what I understand to have happened into human language, I have been shown another language of which I am apart. It was beautiful, insightful and painful at the same time. The tea is by far the worst thing I have ever tasted - I had to hold my nose and drink it in half-mouthfuls, after about 5 minutes I had taken onboard a cup of the stuff. It wasn't long before I noticed that things were changing. One of the first things I noticed was that my senses seemed much stronger - especially hearing, even the quietest of noises would make me jump. I also noticed my sense of balance had changed. Inside my head (pineal gland) was popping or clicking. I was sat in a chair and I closed my eyes and started having very vivid visions of flying through city scapes and observing people living in a metropolis. It was now about 20 minutes into the trip and I thought that I wasn't going to get any more insight so I decided to lie down. About 5 minutes after lying down I felt this horrible discomfort in my stomach I got up and threw up a little into a bucket. At this point I thought it was over as I had purged and couldn't see any more onset. I sat down on the chair and entered into a trance like state, I closed my eyes and felt myself connecting to something I had not experienced before. It felt very earthy, I had visions of the jungle and of plants and nature. I saw that I was part of that, it was at this stage that I realised that my consciousness had merged with that of the plant and the spirit of gaia in the plant was communicating through me. The plant was communicating with me through fractal patterns, geometry, textures and telepathy. It was a struggle, the plant which had a divine feminine spirit expected certain things of me, she wanted my attention, appreciation and she wanted my understanding. This is where the experience became difficult because I was struggling physically with the vomiting and also emotionally with the plant as I felt her pains. At this point I felt an angelic presence that was guiding or watching over me, there was a tremendous shift in energy. It was a power struggle, but after a while (however long that was) I was more able to understand her. She showed me what I can best describe as "the pains of mother earth". I saw deforestation, polluted oceans, ignorant society etc, but is was more intense than just understanding those things intellectually because I was part of that and I felt the pain. At this point I would say "please I just want to be me again" and she would be like "no listen to what I have to say". It was so strange, I stopped thinking in terms of 'I' and started thinking in terms of 'we' and was saying things like we are powerful, we are beautiful. She also showed me great beauty and widsom, at one point she even started to have sex with me... yes this was one crazy ass trip! Although I felt her need to grow and be fertile, I saw how nature works, there is an intelligence, a design which is communicated in a way which is invisible to human beings or beyond our level of scientific understanding, it is guided by absolute love. She is watching us, always she is watching, I had an insight on the need to be closer to nature so that you may be more intune with your intuition or able to "hear her voice". I also remember being able to see and feel energy moving through the room. It was like a circuit or leylines or a river and had many tributaries, it was everywhere. So much was happening it is hard to remember everything. The trip lasted about 3.5 hours and I feel grateful for it - my mind (and body) feels clearer. It seems like a remembering, remembering what I have forgotten, remember what I am a part of. I don't think I can ever look at plants in quite the same way because I know they are more alive then most people realise. The day after taking ayahuasca (yesterday) when I was walking outside I couldn't stop looking at trees and plants, I remembered part of the experience of the night before and felt very emotional and started to cry. I can't explain what it was without using words like love and beauty. I am still fascinated by it all I feel like the world is fresh and I have been reborn, it is so strange. It was truly mind expanding, I have the utmost respect for the entities I was dealing with, I could feel them so strongly, they were a part of me and that is what made it painful at times. I notice ever more so the need in me to be still and be quiet, I find that being in noisy places makes me very uncomfortable like I am hypersensitive. It was truly transformative, even if at times it felt like I had to go close to hell to get there. I also have a strong desire to become a humanitarian something which I aspire to, yet now it seems so much more defining, like this is my purpose.

wow great first post. ill come up with one soon hopefully but it may take me a while to put into words that will mean anything to you :p

[pedsi]

I'd like to share with everyone an experience my mate Ted had with the spice some days ago as he was keen to hear if anyone else had experienced anything similar.

After consuming a small amount of charcunna/cappi mix and not feeling any of the recognised effects after an hour or so Ted decided to load up the bong with a regular dose of fine yellow crystals and see if it would bring on the aya dream.
Two good tokes later it was off to DMT land as usual with all the wonderfull visuals and deep feelings of familiarety.Ted was lying back on the couch,eyes closed as usual enjoying every minute of the blissfull state when something very different started to happen.All of a sudden Teds awareness was inside a car, which he knew was traveling at speed, and was occupied by other people,however he felt he himself was not one of the other people in the car, he was somehow just watching this.A little startled by this Ted opened his eyes only to see the room its usual wishy washy paterned state at such times.
When he closed his eyes he was back in the car again except this time the car was in the middle of some sort of crash with bodies hurtling around in the small space,he likened it to being inside a washing machine.Ted was worried this was some sort of vision at the time,again he opened his eyes.When he closed them again he was straight back to the scene except this time his awareness was inside a body that he felt was lying by the side of the road and there were people leaning over him.Ted could feel the cool wind blowing over his body as he lay there and the experience was further enhanced by the sound of traffic driving by Teds flat outside.
It just seemed so real,the crystal clear visual scene,people, sunlight, seeing cars passing by,and hearing them.As well as the cool air he could feel blowing against his body.This time he opened his eyes to make sure he WAS still lying on the couch.
Again when he closed them he was straight back into the body,he did say that even tho he was in the body he didnt physicaly recognise the body as his own.
Suddenly he became aware time was passing by... he had to make a decision,he realised it was up to him somehow how things were to progress and he thought to himself...live.
As soon as he had this thought his awareness withdrew from the scene entirely seeming to pass through a cloudy type of wind tunnel.At this point he was allso aware of a kind of clock/dial with symbols instead of numbers beside a massive book whos pages were being blown over by the wind.

Ted just lay there wondering what had just happened still mildly under the effects of the spice,he truely felt he had been to some other time frame or dimension....this was way more than anything he was used too.

a friend and i were talking about strange trips.I was interested in deadly nightshade and had some berries........ he told me of his experience in the woods near where he lived,he hasd taken belladonna and was walking,fully enjoying his altered state and the indescribable beauty of the woods.......as he walked he happened upon a group of flowers and he conversed with them for a while.Thet asked him if he would like to be a flower "yes " he said "of course".......they showed him a can of majic paint and said " brush yourself from head to foot with this and you will become a flower...............he did as they said.lol..........and continued his walk he then found an enchanted cabin where he lay down and slept............he was awakened 2days later by a farmer and a policeman...they were going to arrest him for breaking and entering a barn and painting himself with tractor oil !!!!!!!!! he got away with it.......I never did take the berries :D

anyone tried amanita muscaria............I once ate 3 fresh ones.......and found I had so much energy and strength I could hurl big tree trunks around..............this felt ecstatic as the trip came on further it became very lsd like not like pscilocybin........and eventually i felt the need to lay down.......I had all the usual geometric shapes and colours and my sense of size proportin changed I kept thinking I was huge then microscopic and my hands looked like those huge false ones the guy from the flaming lips uses............after vomitting a few times i went into a living dreamlike state that was very pleasnant ....at some point 3 entities appeared looking like 4 or 5 foot high amanitas with wizened faces and white beards .they asked me why i had eaten them.......I replied " too see what it was like " or some such............they then said if i took them again without wanting to follow the path that they would kill me...........Im not sure i am ready to become a mushroom shaman yet lol........i havnt taken any since.......it took me a good few days to feel myself again after the trip.

[humito]

anyone here tried amanitas ? what sort experience did you have???????????

[spock]

i had an out of body experience the night after takin acid in magaluf!
i know..........classy. it was 1993??

anyway i woke up on the couch and was trying to turn the light on but my hand was passing thru the wall .....then i woke up.
i tried to put the light on but again my hand went into the switch............this went on for a bit. must have happened 10 times.
then this shadowy black golum like figure grabbed me by the throat and lifted me up in the air.
i wasn't scared at all. and i boomed in a "brian blessed" type voice "i am on the side of good.............leave me alone"
proper hair dryer treatment!
suddenly i was surrounded by what looked like native american indians with bandanas on sitting on motorbikes.
i was on the top of the hill. they were lookin into the wind with the sun on their faces.

i woke up and it was still dark.

I tried them for the first time this season, it was only 5 dried grams. It had a very calming effect, very mellow would be good for meditating I think id like to maybe try ten grams.

A friend of mines says he likes to take 20 dried grams but he says for 3 hours its very hard going physically, like you keep feeling the need to go to the emergency room, then the good stuff stuff starts after that, kind of put me off. Sure theres an amintas cult in britain that "follow the path" Ill find out their name, there on the ayahuasca forums, my mate was telling me apparantly theres vids of them on you tube eating death caps and the like and the spirits tell them, your not ready yet, just stick with the path then well show you more good stuff, dont think im ready to be a mushroom shamen myself lol

Oh that night I took the 5 grams I smoked some salvia to liven things up, im not very experienced with it, was just leaf in a joint and I turned round to my friends going, here I feel like im an orange masonary gutter and the square men are rocking me from side to side, as if theyd know what I meant then burst into a fit of giggles :confused::D

Damn, you have some good ones in your area! Ours are only fairly potent. It's the formosa variety - they are yellow. They pop up in the woods in the fall. I've heard that eating quite a few of them results in a mild trip with enhanced color and sound and a generally tripped out feeling.

Here's another thread I made about vaping bufo alvarius venom. http://davidicke.com/forum/showthread.php?t=38302&highlight=toad+crack

[astrochicken]

Here's one that really freaked me out (and still does to this day as regards the nature of the matrix)

The setting: East Berlin - about a year after the wall came down.

At that time it was a vast melting pot of wierdos and arty-farty types.. about 30 of us had squatted a 3 story building
which had the back half bombed away during ww2, so you could sit 3 story's up, on conveniently placed 70's east-german sofas,
as if on one huge balcony. Anyways, opposite this, about 300 metres away(across a barren space where said artyfartys had
half-burried doubledeckers headfirst and cessnas and made a jungle-palmtree bar) was another bombed out house.

So i was sitting up there with 2 friends, tripping and for the sheer fun of it i blew away a corner of the house with a laser beam from
my index finger, all hollywood explosion like with sound effects.
So while i was momentarily in awe and stunned by the sheer force of the explosion and the flying rubble
the friend sitting next to me says

"woahhh.. how the fuck did you do that?"

"Do what?" i replied, tripping, but not that far gone that i didn't realize that i'd just blown a hole in the building IN MY MIND.

He said "You just blew a hole in that house with a laser beam from your fingertips"

Mental synchronicity, Telepathy or what??

[supertzar]

That's a good one, astrochicken. Once on LSD four of us were looking at incense smoke in a strobe light and each of us saw exactly one of these form in the smoke:

Then out of its' mouth came another one and out of that one's mouth came another one! :eek:

OMG LOL fcking classic the wife wants to know what im finding so funny :D

terms of 'we' and was saying things like we are powerful, we are beautiful. She also showed me great beauty and widsom, at one point she even started to have sex with me... yes this was one crazy ass trip! Although I felt her need to grow and be fertile,

Got visions of your m8 still watching and you trying to shag a rose ouch ;)

[lilavati]

astrochicken,maybe you have hidden powers
i found back in the 80s that grass and stones were breathing and had souls,something i never knew before,they were conscious.lovely experience.never saw the world the same
i later learnt that it was true

[lilavati]

however i do believe that our aura gets depleted or weekend after drug use.thats the price.
thats why i tell my teenagers not to take drugs because it weakens the aura and in these times people or spirits can take advantage of that

[unimatrix0]

I've had so many, I'm not sure which ones to share.
I was a heavy acid taker in my early 20's. I remember one of the first times I tried it, I literally felt like a two year old. I couldn't grasp much beyond wanting to play and have fun. I even had a childish voice. :)
Another time, I was able to project my fears onto a wall. They took shapes of horrible demons, but I was able to laugh at them and it took all of their power away. It was really liberating.
I know it's not a psychedelic, but I've also had many experiences with e during my clubbing/raving days. At one rave, I took at least 4 pills that were obviously laced with something. I would look at people and their body parts were all scrambled. I couldn't understand that I was looking at a person until I was a few inches from them (they just looked like black blobs before getting close to them). At one point, I walked from one room to another and everyone was on their knees, like they were praying to the mc. I blinked, and everyone was dancing and everything was back to normal. That vision stayed with me for a long time.

[astrochicken]

astrochicken,maybe you have hidden powers

Funny that you should mention them...

thats why i tell my teenagers not to take drugs

As Bill Hicks says: "Not all drugs are good ..... some are great" lol

No, but seriosuly, in another 10 years or so my kids will be old enough that i can take them with me to pick mushrooms.

I'll never forget the first time picking mushrooms and tripping with my dad.
Mind you, he's never forgetten the first time picking mushrooms with his father either.


In my opinion there are amazing insights to be gained that help become a better person with more understanding of the
interconnectivity of all things living, by at least trying magic mushrooms.
Personally, and maybe that's more a scots/celtic clan thing, but i'd rather participate in my childrens first psycedelic experiences
(which they will have of that i'm sure whether i 'm around or not) as was the case with my 1st trip, as was the case with my dads 1st trip,
and so and so on further back untill 1473 (kidding)

[lilavati]

sorry astro dont understand

[persian_x]

Awesome thread,

Ahem

My last mushroom experience was the most enlightnening and socially dangerous of them all. Keep an open-mind to what I am about to write.
Me and my friend decided to take mushrooms in a big park/forest we have on the island of Montreal (Canada). I took about 6-7 grams and he took maybe 1.5-2.
We made sure we were pretty far away and alone. As my psychedelic trip started, keeping in mind that 6-7 grams of mushroom is a huge amount (specially for me), I started seeing and feeling all the powerful life force (energy) of nature. I would look at the trees and the leaves and actually recognize them as living entities of Earth. When I looked at my arms and legs I saw my body like a mere living organism, which really HIT ME HARD (consciousness-wise). I was awakened to my TRUE self (my spirit). I finally realised that this biological body I am trapped in is anything but ME. I could feel my consciousness connecting with all the living beings around me, expanding across the park. That's when I completely separated myself with my body. As I unplugged from this biological trap, my body suddenly got up and left. A true out-of-body experience where I could look down at my body wandering in the wild.
That's when things got really dangerous. As my body wandered off and got close to other people, I tried talking to them and sharing my spiritual experience. When I got really close to them (trying to share them some love energy), I felt their emitted fear frequencies, and some asked me to leave others just pushed me and walked away.
A few minutes later in my trip, cops showed up and asked me these questions I did not understand at that time (whats my name, whats my address, etc.). I didnt answer any of that so they put me in the backseat of their car for a few minutes until the ambulance would show up. Before i know it I'm heading to the nearest hospital.

Lesson learnt : never experience true awakening in open society. You become a menace to the Matrix.

My friend was tripping by himself in our little isolated area in the park, and clumsy as he is, he took too long to realize that I left. He tried looking for me the next few hours, poor soul.

My next big psychedelic trip will be at home, alone :)

[whiterain]

glad to hear you made it through ok persian! had a similar one myself but at a festival, so i guess the only reason i didnt get carted away by the loony wagons was because there were so many other spaced fairys around aswell. got lucky but next time will be inside, although its so nice to be outside, just until i learn to 'control' my actions while under.

still working on a write up but need to kind of get it all straight before it all connects
