Salvia - wow.

It's been a long while since I removed any salvia from my safe. More than a decade. For some inexplicable reason I decided over the past couple of weeks to see if I could form a bit of a relationship with salvia where I didn't feel like a victim of some uncontrollable power - which is how my past experience with salvia has gone.
Third time's the charm as they say. I started with the tiniest pinch since I believe (but do not know for a fact) that my salvia is 20X. Try #1 was the very definition of miniscule...off baseline (barely).
Try #2 several days later was about 1 match head's worth. Not sure I did all that good a job burning it to the requisite high temperature, so not surprisingly, the effects again were very subtle and 100% manageable.
Try #3 was a couple of hours ago - and was about 1.5 match head's in size (probably still too small to register on even my finest scale) but I hit it aggressively and definitely reached the "altered" state I was looking to achieve. I held my breath for every bit of 45 - 60 seconds, exhaled out a cracked window, then immediately lay on my bed in a locked bedroom - no one home and no one expected for ~4 hours.
The hallmark of salvia (for me) is absurd amounts of time dilation and today the numbness that has overtaken me in the past was limited exclusively to the right side of my body. The numbness began and spread from my teeth to face to arm to torso to leg. SOUND coming from light home renovation being done in the distance was like a wind blowing from right to left. My body was like a comet, and the sound coming in the cracked window was like solar wind, leaving a trail of white dust as if I were moving sideways through space.
I was 100% able to retain the fact that I'd smoked salvia and that I would return to consensual reality so did not panic. I closed my eyes and intentionally looked towards the window - the strongest source of light entering the room to see if I could make out any DMT-like eidetic imagery. There were some faint, fine-grained paramecium -like visuals, mostly red and black.
I had no urge to flee, but I did sit up on the edge of the bed to look at the digital )time) display on my dresser...because things seemed to be taking an awfully long time to resolve. Indeed...quite some time did pass - 7 or 8 minutes.
I went for a long hike afterwards - felt the need to have copious clean air in my lungs.

Very nice! I’ve been interested in trying Salvia for a long time but it’s illegal and quite difficult to come by in my country.
The way you described the effects was very illustrative and I feel like I was able to catch a glimpse into what the experience is actually like, although I’m sure it’s still kind of one of those things that is incredibly hard to put into words and you just have to do it to understand.
Cheers 😊

great, maybe I will also tomorrow, BTW, there is no requisite burn temperature, all you need to do is combust the material and let the smokestream (which carries tiny melted droplets of Salvinorin-A into your lungs) flow. (I use pure S-A on cigarette paper fragments for a very fast burn using a one hitter and a bic lighter)
If you did vaporize the Salvinorin-A, your flesh would be seared by the vapor. Therefore torch tech is not recommended, it wound its way into the culture due to Daniel Siebert (ethnobotanist), and I challenged him repeatedly about that.
Haven't heard from him in years.

Knew you would chime in on this topic! Greatly appreciate the advice on the burning of the leaf. I'm using a dedicated, quite small glass pipe with two screens - and it works quite well when I have the courage to hit it properly.
My past experiences with salvia were colored by my INITIAL experience when I mistook some 10 or 20X salvia for weed. I never really got over the fear that going to the immaterial level engendered...and I'm always afraid of a repeat.
Also, I'm in my very early 70's now...so I wonder if I'm physiologically slow to clear the effects. Certainly seemed that way to me.
