How can I experience Synesthesia?

I've taken large doses of mushrooms and small hits of DMT before but I don't think I've ever experienced synesthesia. Is there a trick to experiencing it? Can DMT and mushrooms cause synesthesia?

it just happens you can not force it...I have had it on LSD and DMT but not on mushrooms, but I am sure it is possible on mushrooms. It is quite a weird yet breath taking experience to see sound make its way through the air or watch people talk and you can visualize the words coming out

All psychedelics can produce synesthesia you just have to get there once, then it's easy to get back.
I'd say the neuro-anatomical reasoning behind this is that neuro pathways are not supposed to exist linking areas of different perception in the brain i.e. Sounds (temporal lobes) are complete isolated from sights (occipital lobes). Once the psychedelic creates these pathways they can be reactivated very easily for the rest of your life.
LSD is my favorite for synesthesia. Like you, before I did LSD other psychedelics never made me "see sounds" like I heard they would. But after using acid and having some pretty intense trips (3-5 hits). I can usually get synesthesia off nearly any psychedelic at any dose.
Now days, even just by smoking weed and can lay back and get some CEV's that occur harmoniously to the music I'm listening to.
DMT will defiantly give you synesthesia at breakthrough dose. No doubts.

Pink Floyd tastes like liquefied strawberry's on a large acid comedown. It was amazing. I could also see the music dribble out of the cracks of the ceiling in the form of strawberry juice.

Music synesthesia is one of THE reasons I do psychedelics.
Feeling and Tasting, Seeing music is one of the most amazing things in the world. I get to play around with the music, to experience on 5 different senses.

for me a strong dose of LSD and the right music produced synesthesia.
The blades of grass on the lawn where all buzzing and creating colors in time with some crazy dubstep that was on at a party I went too. There was a sync between my vision and the music I was hearing. It was odd cause I normally hate most dubstep but this music reminded me of DMT music, it was like space ships and big machines making there loud engine and robotic noises. But it seemed to make everything interact with the music, it was a full blown light show, but it was all going on in my head.
EDIT:
I also remember a time (just recently) where I was so twisted on psychedelics that I was smelling through my left arm, and I was tasting the sounds of my friends talking and the television show on in the background. I had trouble working out where my breathing was coming from. I knew it had to go into my mouth or nose to come down in to my lungs but at the time I couldn't follow that idea enough to work out where the air was coming from to keep me alive. That was the beginning to one of my ego death trips

For me, synesthesia has been nothing like "tasting sound" in the sense that the sound has an actual, distinct taste. The Beatles, like someone here mentioned, would taste EXACTLY the way it sounds, in all its complexity.
I remember listening to/watching a trippy video once. For a flash, I heard the entire event (the sound AND the sight). I very easily could have missed it, as it sounded EXACTLY how it looked. So exactly, that it could have EASILY been mistaken for actual sight.

Take about 4-5 hits of some strong LSD blotter. I stared at a painting and EVERY color was changing colors. It was so rad.

I've never experienced this on mushrooms but i've had it numerous times on LSD... smelling colors, tasting colors, seeing music, ect.
The only real trick is to eat large dose of LSD, but you'll be getting mush more than synthesia at that point.

I have experienced it on high doses of mushrooms - never on LSD yet but am taking around 340ug tonight / tomorrow so I expect to be 
Usually it manifests itself with music - I get to see and experience music on a whole new level, lying on my bed. I also have seen colors, I remember the first time I did I didn't know if I would make it out alive or not (this is right after ego death) and so I scrawled a note saying "The stuff I have seen I didn't even know was possible, if I don't make it it was totally worth it" once I was actually able to move about.

Yes I'm reviving this thread.
Well I came here to see if anyone experiences synesthesia with DMT and was surprised more people haven't experienced it with mushrooms. Was even more surprised that some of you need high doses regardless of the psychedelic in question.
Well I have had pretty good synesthesia on moderate doses of LSD but I have had really nice synesthesia on STUPIDLY low doses of mushrooms. Not to mention on acid the synesthesia is mostly just visual but on mushrooms it involves all my senses heavily like smell, taste, touch.
It was weird hearing people talk about tasting sounds. I only ever tasted sights and visuals never came close to doing that with sound waves however. I'm curious as to how many people experience this on DMT.
