I am curious about this. I never see rainbows and fields of grass and unicorns. It always looks like a Japanese Pachinko ball parlor from hell. It's always very geometric and pattern oriented.

Can anyone tell me why this is? Or point me to some reading about this? All of my friends who do mushrooms say the same thing....geometric patterns.

I believe we connect to the God of Geometry when we trip. If you're paying attention of course. Or just the God of Everything. Isn't everything made of geometry?
Maybe we see the invisible blueprints of the Universe. Or maybe they (God/Universe) are the same thing.

Sure, maybe we connect with God.  Or maybe our brains are trained to look for patterns because that is how they learn, and when we ingest high doses of psychedelic drugs that pattern-seeking behavior kicks into overdrive and our brains generate complex fractal-type patterns.  I'm not saying you're wrong...just that it's always nice to consider the alternative too.

I have seen them gnomes and elves though but only in CEV's not like seeing them walking around my living room. And they are always worked into fractal/ geometric gyrations and machine movements, etc.

Yeah thats what i meant you cant really seee that stuff with your eyes open

You can if you take enough.

I often saw entities & other worlds whilst tripping, always through the patterns......kinda like a force field/window, though sometimes I was pushed through.

That's a petty universal visual OP.

When you feed an output back into it's input, what happens? you get a feedback effect, moreso, you create a fractal.





I'd say that using psychedelics has a similar effect on the brain. Neuronal pulses are being fed back into the originating neurons causing your brain to actually experience fractal equations.

Personally I find that shrooms and assorted tryptamines tend to be more geared toward fractals and cosmic patterns while LSD tends to have a more imaginatorially stimulating effect, in that CEVs tend to take on more anthropomorphic characteristics.

I think this sounds a bit more on track.


Also the Universe is so vast there are a bound to be things we can't quite quantify in ways understandable by our limited experience. Sometimes I feel psychedelics show some of the more complex mathematics and natural phenomena that occur within our own brains.

Our species isn't quite advanced enough to understand things of this nature, we however occasionally get the privilege to be able to at least sense these things visually on psychedelics. And for that I am ever thankful







Also I agree with what you say about LSD CEV's "having a more imaginatorially stimulating effect". I find my experiences tend to be similar to this, and other tryptamines are very mathematic and geometric.
