"The green and red walls were breathing heavily, ants crawl down my arms in patterns, but i cant feel them. Staring into his eye, his face starts to quiver all over, before i get a chance to appreciate these light hallucinations the eye explodes outward, spiraling, thousands of eyes in an infinite fractal-esque pattern were staring at me, emotionlessly. Blackness." What are some of the most intense visuals you've experienced? Ima curious :]
hmmmmm... Morphing, Objects merging into eachother, things expanding, detracting, contracting, things randomly throwing themselves into a vortex and zooming, things bouncing and vibrating to music. Fuckin complicated shit to explain lol. Pretty much all of that until the point of where I couldn't make out what the hell I was looking at. Always quite the intense ride... and that explanation is with my eyes open. I can't even get into the Bullshit i see w/ my eyes closed. lol
I always tend to get the same closed eye visual at least for some duration of every trip. Its a series of three gears, they look like ferris wheels at a circus covered in thousands of lights, and theyre spinning. haha
You know that's weird. You reminded me of my old visuals when i first started trippin, although I don't know if you meant what you made me remember lol. I remember when my eyes would be open, it would be like my whole field of vision would be split into three rows of three, kinda like a tic tac toe puzzle, and each square would be its own spiral.. and ofcourse everything in my vision in that particular area would be stretching and spinning into that spiral... if im making any sense right now, lol
Thats not the visual i was explaining lol, but i got the visual you described on my first hippie trip (lsd+mushies). Ive found from many people i talk to there are certain visual patterns tripping that seem to be mutual with alot of people.
interesting. Everybody who tells me about their visuals in my city is like, "YA MAN I GOT CRAZY VISUALS THINGS WERE LIKE GLOWIN AND EVERYTHING WAS SOO VIBRANT", then i say what im seeing and they're like.. Wtf? How much did you take? Glad to see some people Get real Visuals lol. I felt like an outcast until i read your post. haha
Haha thats because the unenlightened mind cant comprehend the happenings while tripping, and forget nearly all of it the next day. So all there left with is what they saw coming up/down, when the visuals are not as intense. Well thats just what i think anyways lol
Those that trip FOR the visuals are doomed to mediocrity. Those willing to dive in and take a deep breath, will see the wonders of the reef.
MM yeah . I agree. LSD is purely psychological in my Very humble opinion. I've witnessed many friends say, "This trip probably isn't going to be good as my last one / Visuals aren't going to be as intense as last time / This probably isn't going to work as good / I feel like I'm going to have a bad trip", kept that mindset the whole way through, and ofc., whatever they expected, in that negative sense, came true. /Annoying
I do not trip for visuals. They're just the fancy wrapping paper on the box. But i do enjoy taking my time unwrapping it.
I don't trip for anything specifically anymore. :S I trip to trip. Am I doing it all wrong now, :d Lmao
I was not accusing or labeling anyone, I was simply stating why some get amazement and wonder, while others get a trippy experience.
I trip for every reason. The escape from reality, entertainment value of monotonous things go through the roof, the clarity of mind is unprecedented, the understanding of nearly anything my mind wanders to. Tripping [[not just drugs, natural altered states as well]] offers the most multi-dimensional experience available to us.
Yeah. "Letting Go" mentally always did seem to bring my visuals to a whole new depth. Almost as if my level of detachment was in sync with the intensity of my visuals. Crazy Shtuff
When I have a thought or idea with alot of depth on acid my visuals tend to seem insignificant next to my thoughts.
I love trying to explain LSd, but I can't even begin to touch the visuals with words. Alex Grey paintings and the like are better at expressing it. But here's a sorta random excerpt from a high dose trip, somewhere between 700-900 mics. I laid down in bed at one point to get lost in the visions and I noticed that they didn't have the intricate depth they did before, no divisions upon divisions. I figured my brain needed some physical sustenence and I went to the kitchen and joyously came upon the forgotten walnuts. I held them in my hand and they were little brains, with the symmetrical hemispheres. They started wrinkling up upon themselves like a brain gets more wrinkled with age. The wrinkles spread to my hand and my skin was getting more detailed and wrinkled, more divisions upon divisions. I started eating them and the wrinkling effect overtook my whole awareness. I could feel the wrinkly wisdom enter my brain and my brain divided itself many times, so much that my awareness crept into the couch I was sitting on and I could feel mental appendages creep down into the earth like roots taking hold. I sensed what were the original shells of these walnuts but they weren't nutshells, they were human skulls. The skulls were still buried in the depths of the earth but the brains inside them were re-absorbed by the earth and were re-constituted in the form of a walnut. I sensed with all the certainty of which I'm capable, that the wisdom of our paleo-ancestors and of ancient sages were not wasted but were recycled into the chain of being, and the natural output of walnuts were the purest preservation of ancient wisdom. I felt that if I eat a lot of walnuts I would literally be adding their wisdom unto my own. I heard before that walnuts are a good brain food, but I was pretty much taking an inter-dimensional tour of the fact.
Well i do believe everything we put into our bodies we absorb some non pysical, so conscious energy if you will. Maybe the absorbtion of that energy was blow out of proportion do to the amount of LSD. Io'no, just a thought
you're right. I like experimenting with different healthy food items when tripping. Each thing has its own personality and you can sense how they interact with your body in a very naked sense. that post wasnt exactly a "visual" but the experience of it was highly visual and I think it is because of specific brain effects that the omega 3's in the nuts had or whatev.
I find I can't eat anything at all tripping anymore. Because no matter what it was, it was once life, and I can't force myself to think,"It's non-locomotive, it doesn't have thought, or even instinct." as a basis to take the life of something else. I feel guiltier about plants being eaten, as they found a food source that doesn't take from other life.
