Wow, you must be extremely sensitive if you get visionary effects from 0.2 grams of cubensis, even though it was dried.
Did you maybe smoke some cannabis beforehand or during?

Well, cannabis can realy amplify the effects of psychedelics. Especially shrooms. When enough cannabis is taken, the effects of shrooms can easily become twice as powerfull. And you said that you're realy sensitive to cannabis, so that would explain a lot.

I closed my eyes and saw the "galactic hyper-mind" of Psilocybin.
The infinite Mycelial intelligence that spans across many galaxies and dimensions.

P.S. Psilocybin is my new best friend and I want to microdose it everyday.

How could you micro dose if only 0.2 of a gram has profound effects on you.
I'm not being negative but do you think the effects were placebo and maybe your setting and mindset as well as the cannabis had something to do with the experience.

I can't imagine 0.2 grams being even active

I don't believe I am as sensitive as the OP seems to be.
However I can say I've developed a very low tolerance, or high sensitivity, to both cannabis and the psychedelics.
Similar to the OP's description of the entheogenic property of cannabis by itself,
I too experience this. I've had friends in the past smoke bowl after bowl after bowl. And I could never understand why they, or how they could be, smoking that much material if they weren't actually bent on dimming their awareness instead of enhancing their consciousness. Just a little sets my mind very On, and I immediately over a period of seconds transition to a more comprehensive and inclusive perspective frame. I notice that unless I am smoking cannabis, I seem more likely to be addicted to thought, and therefore disconnected with reality, living totally in a world of illusion. I believe Cannabis is a powerful ally to catalyze consciousness of the cosmos. It just expands the mind, at the same time it helps to silence one's patterns of thought, or in the least slow down their frequency of passage over this island.
Cannabis i every powerful for me indeed, and I don't need much.

Now, I've microdosed mushrooms in the past. And the way I did was I took a 5g dose one evening. My world changed, again, completely, my previous self dead. Then continuously for about 8 weeks I took between .05 - .35 dried grams most mornings. And I tell you, if I'd had kept that up I'd probably have disappeared out of existence - or at least, that's how it feels. Psilocybin, even at these low "micro"doses, is tremendously useful for helping you adapt to or "grow" into your new state of consciousness. Psilocybin teaches thought itself, and it seems there is no limit to how far you can go and how wise you can become by its aid. The limiting factor is one's fear of becoming incomprehensible to anybody who dares to try and understand you, and even with all their might they will fail. The mind evolves as fast as you desire it to.

Anyway, certainly you are not alone in regard to a hypersensitivity to these entheogens. I personally have used nootropics of various sorts over the past three years, concomitant with the beginnings of my psychedelic experimentation.

I think naturally that if you take care of your brain by eating properly, hydrating properly, paying attention to toxins in food and the environment, perhaps supplement your brain with things that have the evidential weight of human history to back up their efficacy for improving memory, or any other measure of cognition, your brain will be especially lubricated to process psilocybin. So not much of it will be required to detect your notice.

I drink coffee daily with Pure Cacao (a known MAOI)

...I think the Nexus is deteriorating; instead of information and discussion, there is babbling and nonsense. Opinion is stated as fact and we are regaled with "stories" instead of realistic trip reports. I think it's a shame that this valuable resource is being taken over by cranks and religious nut cases...
