First Psilocybe cyanescens trip * 3
    #28093359 - 12/11/22 12:49 PM (1 year, 1 month ago)

I've eaten homegrown cubensis a handful of times in the past, but found my first Psilocybe cyanescens this year so it's time to take a new journey.

Tea recipe:
Lemon, peppermint, ginger tea with .95g ground  mushrooms.
Bring water, thinly sliced ginger to boil.
Add 2 thin slices lemon and 1tsp dry peppermint to water, simmer 5-10 minutes.
Put powdered mushrooms into a tea strainer in a mug. Drip 1 tbsp lemon juice over mushrooms while tea is simmering.
After tea is done simmering, pour slowly into mushroom strainer. Steep for 10 minutes.

I set up a room in my basement with lamps, pillows, blankets and a nice stereo.

10pm -- Drank the tea in silence. It didn't taste great and was shockingly salty, no clue what that was from.  The cyans were from the coast, but it seemed weird.

10:15pm -- No effects yet. Getting a little anxious that I ate a bunch of galerina or something, but I know that's not true. I light a candle and breathe slowly to relax.

10:30pm? -- starting to feel a tiny bit queasy, so I turn on the John Hopkins Sacred Knowledge playlist (HIGHLY RECOMMEND). It's a lot of classical and choir music which is not my jam and I thought I would not like. I blow out the candle.

11:00pm? -- Lying on my back on pillows in front of the stereo. Definitely feeling it. My eyes were closed and I thought "I don't get what people mean when they talk about closed eye visuals" and then realized that I had my eyes clamped shut because I was absolutely captivated by the increasingly intense display of patterns. They weren't "clear" like I had expected, more like when you visualize something in your mind. Your mind's eye, I suppose.

11:30pm? -- Each song that plays becomes more and more intense. My stereo is turned up pretty loud I think, but I can't really tell. I turn it up a little more, turn off the lamps, and put on an eye mask. This is incredible. I am awestruck by the playlist, the choir music is so intricate and complex. I'm grinning ear to ear (I think). I keep thinking that everyone needs to experience this. The music is encompassing my body (but also might have been because it was kinda loud). I could feel tears on face from the overwhelming beauty of this music.

12am? -- I keep thinking that everyone needs to try this. I'm definitely peaking, but I'm also worried about coming down -- I don't want this to end! My body is tense and I'm having to control my breathing because it is so intense, still grinning like the Cheshire cat. Russil Paul's music puts me inside of the stringed instrument (is it a sitar?) and takes me to a new level with the melodic chanting and Indian drums. I cannot believe how incredible this feels, it's what I would imagine ecstasy to feel like. None of my previous trips have felt this... Good? I don't know how else to describe it, but I wish I had taken even more.

Each song feels like an incredible journey, but I never really notice a song start or end. I just feel like I'm in the climax of every song, which towers above me like a glacier or massive wave. The closed eye visuals are insane, like an entrancing movie that I am wandering through in my own mind. Glowing and pulsating mycelial-like networks fan out across my eyelids, each strand corresponding with a different voice or instrument in the music.

This goes on and on. H O L Y  F U C K is probably the best way to describe it. I don't really care about anything other than this experience. I remember thinking that it feels like nothing could take this from me.

1:30am -- the trip is starting to wind down, but I'm definitely still tripping. It was a little more like being drunk. The playlist has ended which I'm a little sad about, but the silence is fine too. My dog is curled up and snuggling with me which fills me with happiness. I go to bed but it takes a while to fall asleep because my mind is still running around. It's not frustrating like it sometimes is though, I just laid there "watching" my mind race like a parent watching their child run around. I'm exhausted, but it's going to do it's thing and calm down eventually.

I really encourage everyone to try tripping like this if you can. All my other trips have been more like "activities" (camping, music festivals, with friends) but this was a whole new thing. Nothing to worry about, no awkward human interactions. It might have been the cyans too, I don't really know. I'll have to try it again with cubes.

Great read, nothing like tripping while laying down and listening to chanting/music/etc... ( I prefer headphones or earbuds) and the movie analogy is perfect, :heart: really captures the essence of what's happening

Definitely one of my favorite ways to trip and it's night and day difference vs spending time doing other "things walking around with your eyes open"

:peace:

I think I'm going to search for the playlist you mention as it sounds up my alley :awemazing:

Thanks! It felt a little rambly to write that all out. I'm sure most music would have been enjoyable, but I really think that playlist is on another level. I was skeptical with what some academia researcher types would come up with for a trip playlist, but it was great for me.

LewDoja, I hope you do too, good luck on your cyan journey! :peace:
