Okay. Because for the past month or two, I've been thinking about what it is I want to question and a lot of stuff like that during the time that my jars have been colonizing (I'm growing shrooms). Should I just basically stop doing this and just go with the flow when I'm tripping?

I think I may be "ritualizing" this too much, am I? I mean, I'm not a shaman, though I do believe in shamanism.

Should I go into the trip with very specific questions or should they be more general?

In other threads, I've been talking about how I have a huge intent and that I have so much on my mind about what I want to get out of these trips, but other people have been telling me not to have too much intent because the mushrooms might have an intent of their own.

So...?




One of the last times I tripped I went into it with the mindset that I was doing this for spiritual and not recreational purposes.  I did what I could to try to facilitate this- fasted the day before, made sure my setting was immaculate and comfortable, and meditated beforehand.  When the shrooms kicked in, they cared not for what I wanted.  'Don't want to have fun?  Too bad!'  I was really stressed out at the time, and rather than give a shit about what I wanted, the shrooms gave me precisely what I (unknowingly) needed, which was a blissful respite. 

I wouldn't get too attached to predetermining the outcome of your trip.  If they only showed you what you wanted to see, how much could you learn?  :strokebeard:

I've found that I tend to get what I "need" from trips rather than what I might "want".  I might prepare for one sort and have something different than what I was expecting.  Meditating's a good way to steer things, but sometimes thoughts just pop up that I've just gotta go with. 

For what you're doing, I'd recommend having a notebook and pen at hand.  I've found writing the things that are coming to mind is a great way to get back to those thoughts I might've forgotten having, plus I can return to them sober if they need more reflection or integration.

Do you think I'll be able to use a pen and paper on shrooms? I've tried writing stuff down on lsd and I absolutely couldn't do it. I didn't know what to do with the pen, and when I did write something, I couldn't concentrate enough to write anything meaningful.

I do it, so I'm sure you could.  Depends on the dose, I guess.  I've found it actually makes the trip stronger, and it's kinda fun to watch the words appear on the paper along with all of the floral patterns.  I just jot down the stuff that's coming to mind so I don't forget it later - short notes, not essays.
