Lookin' for a commune

So I'm really getting sick of living my average life, I'm very unhappy and I feel that a commune would really help me free myself. I'm looking for anywhere in the U.S., that's marijuana or drug-friendly in general, and costs no money to join.. I'm a hard worker and a great addition to any group. I've been searching all over the internet and can't find exactly what I want.. Anyone have any to share?
Peace to all.

 

I totally feel you on this. I'm in the same boat. Would be interested in seeing people respond.

 

Yeah I know.. That's what I've been waiting for lol

 

well imo, before you find this commune, you need to find peace in yourself first, if you don't have that peace, no matter where you go, you take yourself with you, and your problems.

 

Personally for me, I thought my friends were full of shit when they always used to tell me this. I've grown up in a negative environment and was horribly depressed. But ever since my last psychedelic trip on shrooms, I've been affected in a positive, permanently-lasting way. I soaked up every timeless moment of the experience and learned a lot. I feel like I want to offer the most positive energy to everyone I know and meet. I connected and communicated through thought and energy with God. Things are changing slowly, one step at a time and I've seen God blatantly working in my life. I even had a couple tell me I'm the most positive person they know now.

Make no lie, I started having plenty positive times with friends before the trip, but this is what completely changed me permanently and was incredibly intense. Threw depression off the table.

Still the same environment, still limiting circumstances (no job, can't drive) but I do have friends that care about me, I'm much wiser and I know things will change. What I gotta spend time on is meditation, prayer and music. Oh, and a lot of herb is coming my way tomorrow as well!

Anyway, I doubt peace, music, life is horribly depressed like I was. I understand his frustrations. I still have them myself. And I know I got carried away, but just thought I'd share that.

Now ... about that commune! It'd be awesome to have a family together of likeminded hippies round our age! I'm not built for heavy manual labor, but I definitely wouldn't slack off and I'm sure there's ways in which I could help.

 

Thank you for that story, really inspiring. But sadly, yes, I do have depression from how shitty I get treated at work, being lonely for years at a time and heavy alcohol use, but it's starting to work out. Last week I took LSD again for the first time in a year and it opened my senses to help me realize that what I have is not happiness. And after thinking of all the possibilities, a commune sounds wonderful.

And yes, a get together would be great. If possible we could go to this year's rainbow gathering and meet up there

 

Ah that sucks. I wish you all the best dude. I totally feel you when it comes to loneliness and being treated like shit by others. I recommend taking psychedelics and cannabis whenever you get the chance and feel ready for more.

I've taken LSD as well, but I was unprepared, I took 5 hits which was too intense for me at the time, and parts of it I just don't remember. (I would put an entire album on, only remember 1 or 2 songs.) It opened the doors up for trippier highs, though, and when I took shrooms I was definitely more prepared to handle it. My trip on shrooms was exactly the type of experience I was looking for. Meditation helps me to go back to the thoughts I had when I tripped, and really relaxes me. I recommend you take that up as well. And if you use cannabis, never use it to hide from your depression, but use it to work through it.

And I don't mean to push on you, but Jesus is real and a wonderful guide. Not westernized, strict, mainstream-Christian Jesus. I'm talking about radical hippie Jesus who lived in the Middle East when he was on Earth! haha I'm just telling you what's been helping me. Peace and love brah! You'll get better, I promise!:daisy:

 

Great place to start :
http://www.ic.org/

 

Does anyone know if the farm in Tennessee is pro marijuana or not? I know it stil exists but I don't know anything about the use of drugs

 

I wouldnt go around looking for pro marijuana communes, I would go around be yourself and im sure anyone is willing to accept a kind folk willling to work and has good vibes. Most people that farm and sustain realize the irony of the herb

 

I really don't think The Farm is pro marijuana these days, but I don't know for sure.

I'm in the same boat as you, buddy. I'd love so much to join a commune but I need to be able to light up there. I wouldn't join any commune just because they would allow me to smoke there.

I think communes say "officially" that they don't want people having marijuana in their place, but I think sometimes that is just so people won't hassle them if they put "pro marijuana" or anything on their website/information, you know?

Let me know if you find a good one!

 

shit seems like theres plenty of younger folks around here who could all get together and set something up. sure it would be extremly tought to get going but the pay off would be amazing. Nugs and Psychs would most defintly be unofficaly aloud and encouraged. lol but seriously say 15 young rowdy kids with the wanderlust in there eyes

 

Hey man I wanna join! I hate the way my life has been going also. I feel stuck. Long story but if ya wanna talk about it PM me. Anyway I've been looking for a commune too. This one sounds like it would be great!
Peace to all!

 

Don't do the commune. Too many chiefs, not enough indians. You'll end up head fucked and broke. Or some sleeze from the commune will move in on your woman...All in the name of hippy love...What a load of shit. You will want to open fire on the commune in the end when you realize you have screwed yourself. Bad move.

 

if you don't mind a suggestion, maybe you could try putting up some shields around yourself. Imagine a large ball of light slowly flowing out of your body, it can be what ever color you like, I use silver, you can take it as far out as you want, or just around yourself, It will shield you from soaking up other peoples negative energy, I believe that causes depression. it will take some time to master this, my grandmother taught me to do it from an early age, now if I need them, I just think "shields" and they are up.

 

I mean I know that the farm is still a working and running hippie commune still but on their website they said no illegal substances or planting weed on their land. Idunno though, I'm guessing it's for legal purposes but I can't tell. I've never really met a hippie who doesn't smoke weed at the least

 

peace,music life- man NOOOOO! everytime i tune into these boards i see your sig of Jerry smoking. god damn i love that picture! Dont replace Jer with the man who ruined psychedelics for everyone lol. Leary had good intentions but foolish actions.

 

Hahaha, someone's observant! But I don't think he ruined psychedelics for everyone, he just made them more mainstream and known to government officials which was a big mistake. But psychs had their illegal status coming anyways due to the counterculture making them popular. He still pissed off anti-drug enthusiasts enough to consider making LSD illegal though. I have a more reasonable sig now

 

Pro or not should not be the deciding factor for you,,,

Like I repeatedly had to post while in Virginia,,, drug use is illegal, in a commune it would be very easy for narcs who don't like the whole notion of an IC to make it appear as if you were cultivating or manufacturing by looking around MOST of the farms I've seen in my time.

If you look for one that lists itself as Pro Marijuana, be sure they've been established a good 5-10 years and have more or less made peace with the local authorities,,, lord knows the last thing you want in a rural setting is to have all the neighbors think you're a bunch oof pot smoking heathen devil worshipers or something.

But really, like I've also stated,,, the DEA has as yet not been able to stop the importation of drugs into the country, why do you think a commune would have any more effective means, let alone have issue with someone doing something on their own time, and in their own space?

 

Oh no, it's definitely not. That's why I wrote "I wouldn't join any commune just because they would allow me to smoke there."
I'm not just looking for a place to smoke weed and I don't think that's what it's about for peace,music,life either.
