Teachings from a dream helped me with a dimensional shift while tripping

Hi Everyone!
This is not a subject that I can discuss with people in my everyday life, you can guess what type of response I would get if I mentioned the subject of this post to someone I know.
So a little background first. I used to trip on LSD and Mushrooms when I was around 18 years old and then stopped for quite a while. I guess it was due to a few bad trips and combined with other substances that were not what I needed at the time.
So about two years ago a long time friend asked if I would like to do a low dose of Liberty caps. Reluctantly I accepted and had a good experience. It felts like the cobwebs were blown away. He then introduced me to micro-dosing and that is when my interest really took off. It helped so much with my anxiety and I felt like my brain was healing itself.
Fast forward to a month ago. I had reduced the frequency of my micro-dosing so no major effects were noticeable and I was taking a reduced amount of Golden teachers. One night I had a dream that I was walking along a long beautiful beach, deep blue sea and a sky so clear it was actually a dark blue colour. Someone was walking beside me and we were deep in conversation. Or rather I was listening rather intently. The other person was explaining something to me and I was nodding in understanding. I cannot remember who the other person was but I am guessing it was me, but again my memory is foggy on that point. Anyway at a certain point, I can only describe the feeling being like this. Imagine you are in a light aeroplane and it does a barrel roll while descending about 100 feet. A feeling of rolling and descending. Next thing I know I am on the same beach but it lacks beauty, its darker and not dirty but less beautiful. And I am walking in the opposite direction. I wake up and shrug about the dream, thinking it was interesting but how about some coffee.
Okay, skip to last weekend. Some fresh Amazon cubes, not much about 500g. But it ended up feeling more potent than that. As I was coming up I decided to close the curtains, lay back and listen to some music on headphones. Near the peak I remember thinking " Wow! this is really beautiful and that there are different levels to reality or different dimensions. That is when the barrel roll happened again! But this time I was conscious! As I had experienced this before I was able to stay calm and go with it. What happened was I had come down a little from the peak and had descended back to a lower level. I didn't think this at the time but after a couple of days I put the dream and the trip together and realised I was preparing myself or being prepared for that occurrence.
I have tried to look for information on this because it seems like a repeatable occurrence and I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this or something similar.
I'm interested in exploring further and if you guys have any advice etc I would love to hear it!.
Peace!

Hi. Thanks for this report, its truly insightful and your writing is very cool. What can be said about something so profound, particularly your dream, brother? :|
interpretations;
1. something bad is about to ocurr, a twist of fate, a reversal of fortune.
2. The insight that all things have an up and a down, a good and a bad, and insight into this can help one accept this and thus avoid suffering.
as for similar experiences...yes indeed. Just one crazy thing that happened to me is that the night before I ever took my first psychedelic (DMT, which I had bee preparing for for months) I had a vivid dream which was like a DMT trip, with devas showing me a morphing wall, smiling, and telling me look! look! I looked at the wall and on it was the whole meaning of existence. The following night I had my first psychedelic experience via a DMT breakthrough...and I discovered the meaning of existence
much love brother

this is one case in which researching yogic absorptions or Jhanas may be of interest.
Jhanas occur as a byproduct of both mental resonance (how slowly things fade from mind eg. a gong resonates for a long time but a finger snap is over instantly) and mental activity (what's on your mind - the contents of thought (eg. meditation object)), normally even well practiced meditators cannot choose when to have a Jhana type experience, but always they are advised to be aware of it if it occurs, not make a fuss, and not reach for it to continue or try to make it recur, merely accept its occurrence and continue with the meditation practice.
Typically it is like a state of grace (joyful, pervasive, and even ecstatic), and a good practice will often trigger it, while sustained practice may extend it slightly (by adding both resonance and focus on one object), though efforts to extend or revisit directly, do not work, you have to treat it as a gift.
Dreams usually are short duration tableau type scenes with short action sequences or no major action just arrangements of people and props, like a gif animation, but immersive and seemingly lasting a long time or repeating. Each tableau may segue way to another related tableau - often as a jump cut to scene B from scene A.
In real time a dream may start and end in a few seconds but subjectively span hours or days or more.
The groovy stuff in your dream is like a Jhana experience during sleep. However, as with Jhanas, trying to revisit it directly will not work, it will produce only a dry facsimiles of the rich experience. The Jhana is not directly related to what you do or try to do, but it is a side effect of the resonance you build when concentrating on something (one simple thing, like your breathing out and in.)
When you reach for the stars you will get the barrel roll, but if you just sweep the floor mindfullly you could be flying on that broom in your dreams or trips iykwim.

once enlightenment has been reached you get it
any dirt left in the mind will be removed
and you every time 10 seconds pass you sweep the mind remove dirt, fix that
and cultivate good mental qualitities
like seeing the good new plant and planting it in the garden
you view it, you are close enough to view it, the viewer is
at this point you are not more than 50 % certain that we don't exist

that 50% applies to many things taken more lightly than otherwise hence, en-light-en-ment
not taking things too seriously, but also not being a doofus
