Hi, just another aussie checking in to say hello. I must say, i found this community by complete accident. But through a quick scan of the forums a was impressed with the attitude, respect and wisdom of the members. I live in sydney, and have been around many different 'scenes', but as i grow older, i feel im looking for more meaningful existance. My first experiences to inner space was with micro dots. That was when i first felt a change happening. I never had a bad experience with them, but saw friends who did. I usually was the one to stabilise them and always felt that if it was me, who would 'catch' me. The experiences i had where like an epiphony of clarity and understanding (with some visuals for the first few hours). I have not had a dot for a few years and tabs do not come close. DMT has been on my mind for a few years and im looking forward to my next journey. The destination may be DMT, but im going to soak it all up and enjoy journey there, no matter how long i take. Cheers and look foward to meeting and chatting with you all.
 
Hello lonely soldier,

Welcome to the Nexus. Thank you for that concise yet thorough introduction. I felt I got a good beginning sense of you, :). Even though you found us by accident, I'm glad you decided to sign up. In my opinion, this forum is a cut above just about anything out there, especially other drug forums.

We have a goodly number of Australian members here, of varying levels of activity. I must say, speaking as a member who resides in a fairly draconian country (USA) I am appalled at all the new plant regulations that were put into place in AU awhile back.

There are a decent number of us middle aged (or even older) members here. Some are "re-entry students," in that they took a big break and are now coming back to entheogens. Some (sounds like you are like this) never really stopped.

DMT is a truly unique journey, that demands respect and preparation and yet for which one can never fully prepare. I'd say do a lot of reading here, check the Wiki link for the extraction teks, ask questions, etc. Before you know it, you may be where you seek to be. Regardless, I do hope you choose to become an active member here.

Again, welcome to the Nexus.
 
Thanks for the reply pandora.

Im really enjoying this site so far. Im not sure how much valid input i can supply, but im here to learn. So far ive been trying to identify the many acacia species growing in my front and backyard. There is atleast 4 different species and one is definately a acacia longifolia. I feel like a kid again! Its going to take me a while to settle in and feel confident in what im doing, but thats part of the adventure.
 
hey mate :) welcome aboard - fellow aussie here, nice to have a new addition to the fairly small bunch of us here.. I like your "take it as comes" attitude and I think it a good way to approach life-without expectations. Have you uploaded photos of the acacias in your garden?

hope to see more from you..
 
Welcome to the board mate!

Good to see another growing Aussie here. Could it be accident or fate which lead you here? I think you should try get some pictures of your acacias up and I'm sure members here could assist in some sort of identification :) Hope to see you around!

Hi Acacian and TheAwakening.

Ill get some photos of my acacia up soon. I quickly discovered that only the longifolia is the only acacia in my yard, the others were me just making a rookie mistake! Im planning a long bush walk along the fire trails, down the ridges and gullies and towards the river in a first search for natives. Ive made a list of locally known acacia species and thier preferd habitats. Ive also downloaded some pics to help me identify them. Im confident ill be able to find a couple of them atleast. Acacias im looking for are

Acacia brownei (prickly moses)
Acacia decurrens (green wattle)
Acacia falcata (sickle wattle)
Acacia hispidula (rough hairy wattle)
Acacia linifolia (flax leaf wattle)
Acacia parvipinnula (silver stem)
Acacia pubescens (downy wattle)

I may only find a few (and ones not actually on the list i made) but its only a first exploration. i already have a site for the acacia pubescens which is listed as endangered, so itll be nice to take a few photos of that one. Im looking forward to getting down in the bush as its been years since ive spent a day there.
Also i know some plants may or may not be relevent in what ill be requiring later down the track. But im treating the exploring, finding, photographing and documenting of any acacias as my first lesson in my journey.

Thanks for saying hi, its much appreciated!

Oh and before i forget. Whether it was an accident or fate that i found this community is two seperate sides of the coin. So im going to say the coin landed on its side :)
