I don't honestly know but our lives have been much better since and we were even able to have a child though both were told we couldn't. I'm one point above infertility yet we have a wonderful little boy who will be turning 4 in January.

You must be really good people. Sometimes a spirit just takes an interest in one of us struggling to exist here. And then they can help us out. The opposite can also happen in my opinion. Like when you get haunted by something.
Just be respectful. Don’t gamble or anything about it. But that’s really cool. What did it look like?

It seems to change the way it looks, the first time it was a horrifying mixture of plants and animals that had tree trunk looking legs. The second time it was in the shape of a person but was completely made up of static like it was having a hard time taking shape. My MIL does a lot of cleansing rituals so I'm guessing it was having trouble holding it's shape so it took whatever form it could actually do.

When I see entities it’s kind of like a familiar entity once I’m there. It remind s me how to communicate with much is telepathically and then it feels like we are either playing a game or I am learning in a class. I found that I can greatly control the experience by my mind state. If I meditate the right way it feels like I am downloading information from This entity but if I fight it, I’ll feel anxious. For me it’s completely telepathic because it seems like my brain is hijacked. I get an intense warm feeling up my spine and into my brain and then I’m in the familiar space. Last time I saw an entity kind of dancing but it was light or like pastel like colors and it was changing forms according to what it wanted. But telepathically I knew it was trying to convey to me that it is a higher intelligence and benevolent and god basically for lack of a better word. I’m still confused about what happens in these trips( mine are usually dmt), that’s why I’m glad you posted this. After I come down from a trip I spend hours researching what others have experienced. I’ve been listening to some YouTube podcasts about a study in which they intravenously kept people in the dmt state for thirty minutes and they all saw, felt entities. The most annoying thing is it’s hard to remember after. I definitely believe it connects you to all energy but just like our consciousness or intelligence is natural, there are other intelligent beings too in nature. There’s probably a good reason as to why we can’t see them in our realm but I feel like they definitely exist and influence our realm.

The older I get the more I realize that we know nothing of what existence truly means and I'm more than happy to help anymore I can in this regard. I also believe that these entities have personalities much like ourselves and some are definitely kinder than others. Some I feel are arrogant and get upset when we intrude on their reality others though are much more patient and are happy to nurture us much like we do pets.
If you ever have questions or need to share something I'll be around and will do my best to help you if I can. Just remember that much like people, these beings can have their own agenda so always tread carefully and be respectful even if you don't like how the interaction is going. Love you friend and enjoy your week!

In my experience, familiar entities are what IFS calls parts (Internal Family Systems). IFS is one of the therapy modalities being used by MAPS to help with psychedelic journeys.
A part is a conscious entity that lives in you. It could be a reflection of your grandfather (mirror neurons are really cool), a favorite mentor, or the anger you inherited from your dad. It could be as simple as your girlfriend's voice in your head when you're downstairs seeing your first Enoki fruit (all of this is my own experiences).
Parts can surprise us. Even though they're generally aware of us, the ego (which is the default mode most of us live in), is not generally aware of them. So, they feel like someone familiar but that you don't recognize, and they do things that don't feel like they're under our control.
I encounter parts daily, sober or otherwise.
What I think of as foreign entities, in my exprience, have been parts that have been put inside of me with malicious intent. Terrorizing blacks and hippies, for example, was the intent of the drug war when Nixon enacted it. And this was the first entity I encountered that felt alien. 100% unfamiliar.
I said some of this a few pages back. But I thought it was worth reframing and reiterating for anyone else exploring their mind that might appreciate the insights I've gleaned over the years.
20+ ayahuasca trips. Lost count of everything else a long long time ago.

always worth reframing, interesting to consider default mode as ego, and I think not very off base at all. kind of a smearing over time of what has been the most busy of overall mental activity tangents.

I encountered what I believe to be mother nature or the spirit of earth.
My trip went electric blue and white, those were the only colours I saw in my vision.
The whole planet connected together through tree roots that span the whole surface of earth. We were all gathered around the tree of life - although this was not one tree in particular but made up of many inter-connected organisms and that life, in one form or another was limitless.
They were faceless entities with similar bodily features to alien "Greys", all sitting cross legged and connected to the earths "networks" - there was a larger entity that looked the same but much bigger. I was invited to join, they all were moving left to right in rhythm with a very tribal beat. i had a great feeling of warmth, love and contentedness.
I had a feeling that all the smaller entities were also other "people" that were also tripping at the same time and we were all invited to join together at this sacred time and place, and that we were all connected in one way or another.
I am neither particularly religious or spiritual, but this is what i experienced.
I later learnt that the very grounds i was tripping in was the Scientology’s worldwide headquarters until 1967. link
Make what you will of that because I have been unable to fully understand or process that trip.

That sounds to me like you were on some Leylines. It also sounds like you got to see the actual tree of life mentioned in the Norse religion. It also sounds like you’ve got to participate in a fertility ritual with nature spirits…
I am jealous.😉 I know it’s hard. But you should definitely try to draw or paint what you saw. Because I bet it was incredible.

one of the best mushroom experiences i have ever had.
As I get older and more experienced, the more i feel blessed about experiencing it.
I was camping on the grounds while my partner of the time was attending a course. Clearly i was connected to nature and the earth in some way - truth be told i just tripped for fun back then. but the experience has always stuck with me. More so because i wasn't really exploring or channeling the spiritual capabilities of this medicine.
Funnily enough I have some draft drawings/pictures of this somewhere but have never put to canvas, I frequently try to draw and paint, mostly mandalas - but I can never truly translate what I see in my mind into completed pieces I am really happy with.
Maybe i'll post some of them one day

Also, thank you for your thoughts/comments - they have given me something else to consider about this experience

I love mandalas… What do you use to make them? P.s. I’m always glad to share my thoughts on spiritual experiences.

This isn't scraffito - if my quick google of the term is correct.
The backgrounds were painted first and then i painted the black mandalas on top. All acrylic paint work.
I haven't seen the monks work that you mention. a link would be appreciated.
I feel we are taking the thread off topic so apologies OP.

That’s just a term I use for fine detail work. I think that’s only applicable when you’re carving Ivory. It’s just one of my favorite words.

This is a small example. I’ve seen an enormous one. When they blow it all away. It just feels so sad. But then they do it again the next day. It’s part of their meditation.
