Greetings fellow adventurers,

Tonight I once again took a little more than last time, I might be around 15-20 mg now, and I think that I'm getting a glimpse of what's out there. Still haven't experienced the full breakthrough, but working my way up there. Home alone, some soothing solfeggio on at barely audible volume, a lit candle, trying to make the mood.

Closing my eyes after I got all of it in me, I finally really saw the intricate geometric and colorful patterns I've read so much about. Some were like rainbow-like waves washing over me, others like fractals. Trying to totally relax, I felt like I was being looked upon by the elves. They were like beings of light, shaped kind of like a butterfly. They were barely visible against the black background of my eyelids, but clearly I was on the edge. Some moments, while deeply concentrating on what I was experiencing, the music in the background seemed to fade and shift in frequency, while the visuals got more intense. During these moments, the sounds of passing traffic sounded very mechanical, almost clunky. Still quite a bit below actual breakthrough dose, I was still anchored to my body, and while opening my eyes for a moment, the whole room was sort of hazy and almost liquidly shifting shape, and every edge looked like a miniature rainbow.

Even on these small doses, I feel that the experience lasts way longer than the actual 10-15 minutes that they take... While trying to output a feeling of love, respect, and curiosity, I promised what- or whomever it is I saw that the next time, I would be in a better setting: more quiet, no music, no traffic, no streetlights polluting my darkness, better seating, the whole 9 yards. For a brief moment it felt like they were laughing at me, but as I finished these thoughts of how to improve the setting, all visuals faded. I opened my eyes again, finding the only remnants of the effect were a mild spatial distortion, everything seemed just a bit crooked and out of place. Relaxing myself for another few minutes, all effects faded away, and I was totally sober again. No after effects whatsoever.

Not sure what to make of this all, it might just be my imagination running wild with the help of a small dose, or that I've actually been able to take a glimpse of what a breakthrough might encompass.

I have about 1 full dose (~40mg), and another smaller one (~20-30mg) left, and think I've finally gotten the hang of properly vaping it. Next time, I might actually get to congregate with what and whom I've seen so far.....

Thanks for reading!

Sounds like you are definitely on the way. It's always good to get comfortable with the substance before going for the breakthrough. All the best on your travels

Thank you very much for this reply! I was (and still am) wondering if I was just imagining things on a small dose, or if all of this is a genuine sneak-preview of what's to come when I actually break through.

If anyone has anything to add, even if it's an 'insult' to what I've written, PLEASE, reply, the only reason I'm here is because I'd really appreciate your input!

You could think of the small dose like a preview, a very small one like getting your feet wet on the edge of an ocean. It's great to see you are approaching the next go with the right attitude, it makes for a much better experience when you've done the right preparation with set & setting. Personally I've found meditating before dosing to be very helpful.
