Come down:
Baseline:
T=0:00 Smoked 1 fat p.Harmala Cake on blue lotus stamens. No nausea. No noticeable effects. I was already sleepy.
T=0:15 One large hit of A.confusa tree bark (not root) infused changa (blue lotus stamens/peppermint leaf) approx. 1/3 of the bowl. I hold it for probably 30-45sec. maybe longer. The stamen and peppermint are very easy on the lungs. I get no coughing from the stamens, maybe a little irritation from the peppermint but the cooling and soothing after effects over power the little irritation. I always cough with cannabis but this is smooth. It kind of crept up on me. As I was holding it in I think I sensed a full body pressure like a expansion of all cell walls just a tiny bit and my trademark open eyed blue aura vision kicks in. I try to blow out as if through a straw as slow as possible. Perception starts to change and I realize that this could be the one because this one hit was really deep and I have 2 maybe 3 good hits left in the bowl. Everything is lit up bluish/whitish.
T=0:16 I finish blowing out the first hit and take another 1/3 of the bowl with the same hold/release pattern as the first hit. Instant OEV of the grid for the first time as I was putting the bowl down. I can instantly see better in the dark and the grid is everywhere. The texture of walls in the dark was 3D. My body is overwhelmed with buzzing and heaviness... Then I shut my eyes... HA! I am in hyperspace! Incredible feelings to see the grid and be in it at the same time. 1 Minute passes.
T=0:17 I take the other 1/3 of the bowl and close my eyes and lay back deeper into the recliner than I ever have. I close my eyes and enjoy the journey as the patterns flow and radiate. Not sure how long I held this 3rd hit... maybe a minute or two then I slowly release it. I reclined for about 10mins. in total amazement at the visuals, body sensations. The 3rd hit might have been too much for my first breakthrough but it was too late.
T=0:30 I am/have peaked by this point and I am just riding the waves and the only unpleasantness was light cramping in my lower back and a huge chill came over me as the yawns were/are kicking in. Was this a serotonin build up? Not sure but it was time for a good warm soak in the tub.
T=0:45 Done with a nice relaxing soak in the tub and I have been listening to an Arabian desert music track which I felt was appropriate due to the nature and roots of alchemy. I head to bed for a continued warming up session.
T=1:00 The Journey is over and all is after glow from here on out.Intensity (overall): (use HRS-like scale i.e. 0-4: 0 = "Not at all;" 1 = "Slightly;" 2 = "Moderately;" 3 = "Quite a bit;" 4 = "Extremely."
I can only put this at a 4 for extreme intensity as I have no other way to describe the experience.Evaluation / notes:
After my series of sub-breakthroughs I realized how important it was for ME to have the house in order and cleaned up before hand as I just want think about the Journey and not the mundane after the experience. This is not escapism only that I want to be able to focus for a longer period of time after the experiences that I had during the session.
OPTIONALPleasantness: (0-4)

No hang over and all afterglow effects tapered off in a pleasant manner.
REPORT(write your trip report as you would normally write it here)
Many thanks to all who have help make this experience possible for me! Life will never be the same again!!!! I am attaching some photos/art that will give an idea of the visuals that I had but none are exactly what I had seen but I am sure you will enjoy them anyway.Journeymann attached the following image(s):
