So I was reading on Erowid that one of the effects may be color shifting (red, green, and gold colors) I perceive these often before liftoff with my OEV, do a lot of you out there perceive the same color shift? I see lots of Reds and Golds. Does anyone else see different colors? Once I blastoff the colors are indescribable and beyond any color I could really define.

IME I have seen multitudes of colors in many un-but-perfectly-definable shapes/patterns across the "background" of my reality.

For me, the color change (and the changing colors throughout) is probably the only visually reliable aspect of the experience (when not in hyperspace, at least). In the early days of the changa bong, everything always turned purple/pink/orange/red. These days it can be anything...

I adore the color shift, and it happens for me 100% of the time (if I can keep my eyes open to stare at the world).

Along with colorshifting, it's like the resolution changes completely. Things become wider, sharper, clearer, vibrant, and alive.

I have wept as the medicine wore off and I watched the beauty slowly drain from my room... I saw so well, but the light that once sufficed was suddenly not enough. There are parts of my mind that see better than others, and I want to live under those all the time... (Must! Experiment! Further! )

has anyone here had pretty much black and white voyages ? Those are really creepy and and they are filled with negativity even though the subject was was feeling good mentally
at that time.

I find Chaliponga gives extremely dark visions...
