I hope I don't get banned/kicked/flamed for sharing this, as I don't know this group's views on shamanism or the use of hallucinogens/enthogens. But I'll take the risk to share what has been revealed to me. I add, however, that I am still strugglig with what these images mean, and due to society's influence, I grapple with wether these are really messages from the divine, or if i was just "tripping".

First Vision, August 2004
Enthoegen: Cannabis

I sat with my two closest friends (Bryan and Jon), my spirit dislocating from my body and recombining about every minute or so. At some point, I am standing outside of my self, looking at the room from the ceiling, seeing my body (which is male) and my soul (which appeared to be female) sitting behind my body.

Second Vision, March 2005
Entheogen: Salvia Divinorum

Again, with my two closest friends, after inhaling the first time, I percieved my skin as being made of dark indigo or balck velvet, covered in cold silver stars. The second inhale transformed my body into the mast of a large wooden sailing ship, the bed into the main deck, and the room into an ocean. I began to rock with the ocean's waves, and tried to say to my friends "Dude, reality's a boat", which threw me into a loop of rocking side to side on the waves, hearing the echo of "It sometimes floats, it sometimes floats" though the words kept chnaging and I can't remember them all. I should note, it was late at night, and very dark outside (in physical reality) but I percieved above the ocean a clear blue sky in bright daylight. Within minutes, I found myself taking the form of a Native american woman, dressed in seer skins, paddling a canoe down a river in a forest, again, in daylight, filtering through the green leaves. This lasted a few minutes more, when I suddenly realized that I have legs. (Which seemed terribly important - I had forgotten all about them) I was now in the form of a young girl, maybe 8 or 9 years old, sitting on a quilt on a large bed. A mother figure, and a sister figure were also sitting on the bed. For an instant, I thought I was back into "consensus reality", until I remembered what my bedroom and my friends looked like. I was suddenly in a box, looking through a glass wall, where my best friend(Bryan) had reappeared, my other friend had not yet. I reached out to put my hand on the glass, my best friend took hold of my hand, shattering the glass wall, the box, and the entire other reality. I found myself back inside "consensus reality" with my other friend holding my other hand.

Third and Fourth Visions, Late 2005 or early 2006
Entheogen: Cannabis
The dates are kind of hazy on these...
In the third vision, I was with Jon and some of his friends, and the room we were in became the inside of a geode. The only way in or out was through an ethernet cable which I percieved as glowing at its end.

The fourth was with Jon on the back porch of one of his friends' houses. I percieved the earth as a sailing ship as I looked up at the stars, felling totally exhillerated percieveing the winds of the cosmos gently blowing by. I felt a kind of light/energy within, saying that God wants us all to be happy.

Fifth Vision, June 2006
Enthoegen: Blue Tea (tea brewed from psyllocybin mushrooms)
I had iTunes running, playing music, and drawing visuals. Listening to Alanis Morissette, and some middle-eastern-style music, I saw the entire history of shamanism play out in the kaleidoscope on the screen. There was a story, about the plants that the Gods placed here to at as messengers, so the Gods could speak more clearly to humans. It told of how we've moved away from Nature, so they sent us LSD to try to draw us back, but a sense that we must return to nature, and sooner is better. Later, I looked out my kitchen (again, it was late at night and dark outside in consensus reality) For a moment, I saw the sun shining, and a garden growing outside. I felt so at peace, and so at home. Everything seemed so beautiful, and seemed to whisper that God wants me to be happy.



Well, In the few hours I've been on this board, I've come to sense that you're all very open-minded people, and hopefully this post won't offend anyone. But, what does anyone think?
