I just made a painting
I really had no intention in mind
Other than knowing I would probably paint one
So normally I plan a bit more because to paint realistically needs a bit more planning for me
So really Im channelling
Like higher self or a guide
I know all my paintings are guided by a good source
I cannot even make remotely preachy paintings
Because the energy is wrong
But I have been wanting to rebel/send out good messages, but seemingly not really getting the go ahead
Anyways started painting various mushrooms on the left.
The left is connecting to my heart
The canvas is my heart
The I paint pink energy in various layers around a couple of mushrooms which I painted different colours
Then on the right side
I wrote
"The great spirit Mushroom
Mushrooms know the way
and an arrow from the mushrrom to the words mushrooms know the way
I dont know if this painting is meant to be a message for me
Or for others
But usually my paintings are helping myself and then accidentally helping others
Read this about the mushroom
Spirit of the Plant (DMT, Mushroom, San Pedro)I wanted to start a thread about some of the experiences I have had with these plants....I just want to begin by saying I do not endorse drug use nor do I ever suggest that anyone do these things...do what is right in your heart...but heed, if one does decide to explore the world of the fruit from the garden of eden, PLEASE at least respect the plant, the spirit, nature,,etc....Ceremony is a respectful gesture that i would always do when working with a plant.... I suppose I will begin where my most significant awakening began...I was 17 years old at the time (I am just about 24 now)....my friends and I decided we were going to eat some mushrooms, keep in mind at this point in my life I had no real respect for anything or myself, so drugs were drugs....now granted, I had dropped a lot of acid before this, so I thought I was prepared, I was told this would be much "smooother" and I'd be "one" with nature...well now that was all very true...my friends and I tripped out at a Rutger's dorm room..went outside, played in the fields...had a nice teenage time.... Well, we came down some hours later and were all just kind of laying on the beds talking. Suddenly, I turned and touched the wall....my hand went right through...I turned to look at my friends, they all had one eye in the center of their foreheads, slits of the brown blood of earth began to bleed from their skin and the room became...well...a beautiful jungle like garden...and there was the most beautiful sound...drums, flute, native americans singing....like heaven....the feeling was that we were all native americans...i could look at everyone and see their spirit guide/animal... So, now mind you, my friends were NOT "tripping" anymore, in fact they were quite sober....so it was very scary for them because I was no longer "there". For hours and hours I saw and heard the most amazing things....amazing doesn't cut it even. The Goddess wanted me...so she took me to Her domain. There was the most beautiful light...I became ONE...the river, you, me, the Sun....and then She spoke. "Behold, it is all within YOU. Heaven...Bliss"...and there really are no words for what I experienced next...it was every good high I had ever felt all at once...orgasm...nirvana....every thought in my head manifested right in front of me...unbelievable, really....After this there were many personal things she revealed to me... The matrix was revealed to me as well during this experience....its quite the load to dump on the 17 year old mind.....I could here "them"...they were knocking on the doors around me trying to get in....some of you may know who "them" are, I don't want to get into it.....but to sum all this up, by the end of the night, I repeated a couple many themes according to my friends...1. The Matrix has you 2. She's coming! She's coming! 3. I am Wolf. The night did finally end, I had died many a time..became the strong warrior and was reborn....when I finally "came out of it"...I awoke to my friends, totally freaked the hell out...and me, in a daze trying to piece together what I had seen.....oh one more thing I would like to add to this was apparently during this whole fall down a rabbit hole I began to sing...granted I do sing professionally but my friends had all concurred it sounded like nothing of this Earth...completely angelic...at the sound, tears swelled in them....according to them...but everything else that happened was totally messed up to them....i was not functioning in 3D in their perception.....my girlfriend at the time resented me from that moment on because she never got to see what I did....and for almost a week i was almost non responsive....the overload was a lot to handle....my reality had been smashed in a nights time.... After this night, every time I took mushrooms, a similar experience would happen....I took lsd and it was this, but with a dark sinister twist....granted I don't do lsd anymore.... DMT. Not too much experience with this except a few times....it was like tripping over a twig, looking up and seeing a COMPLETELY different reality...the fourth dimension maybe? spirits, acended masters, 2d entities...everything you could imagine....all in just about 5 minutes...whoah... Totally a femminine energy like mushroom/ psyiblin .... San Pedro...my first experience with a masculine energy/plant....the active psychedelic, mescaline....that was quite an experience...this was about two years ago...my friends and I put a lot of love into preparing this drink...hours of time and effort...and then our ceremony of opening our circle to the great elements and the Great Spirit...we drummed........and then, as usual, the spirit took me....the little spirits, as i call them came smiling out of every corner winking at me, enticing me..my friends didn't see these spirits at first until the spirits told me to talk to them and pull them in...so i did...it worked ...even then something was coiling inside of me...i wanted to go towards the smiling spirits/animals, but there was something within...and it needed out....i wretched my body twisted turned in the most unhuman ways....i felt like a demon was being excorcised from my heart, or my core.......... This ad goes away when you register. Then the vomitting began....I don't know what came out of me but it was nothing I'd ever experienced....then the jolting of my body continued until finally a voice told me "It has released..."....once again this all really freaked out my friends....Coyote played a huge roll in this experience....he talked to me through the whole thing....but whatever spirit it was in this plant "kicked my ass" as I like to put it....they held nothing back and showed me like a slideshow all my weaknesses.....it was quite the different experience.... Today....my thoughts after all these happenings, I prefer to not take plants...I find visiting the other realms and worlds is much more manageable through meditation....unless I had a true shaman with me, I'm not sure I would experiment again...well, maybe ....I do plan to go to the jungle at some time and take ayahuasca I've heard nothing but good about this plant.....but I plan to do this under an EXPERIENCED shaman....everything I have written above was if even just a little way, haphazordous ....you never know what will happen because you are under the wing of the spirit of the plant after ingesting....where she/he wants to take you, tell you....well that's all up to Her
